Just for clarification, do you intend to charge $ for both Siels Aura and sell lock box keys in the daeva pass to unlock box's?

What does "All Rarities" mean to you within the benefits of buying Siels Aura?

How much have y'all set aside for lawsuits for double charging your customers for the same thing?

 

Maybe for your next brilliant idea, you will implement loot boxes that allow you to attend Fort Sieges, that you need $$ to unlock and without said ticket, you get barred from entering any Vulnerable forts?????

 

Another banger:  Remove everyone's ability to enter dregion 1x per day, as you've removed our ability to do it 3x a day in the recent past.

Then sell loot boxes that let you enter dregion 1x a day.

 

Remove everyone's ability to do any quests both campaign and blue quests alike.

Then sell loot boxes that let you complete 1 single quest, cost $50 per box for each quest!

 

Sell the ability to Run, not run scrolls mind you... you can still make us mindlessly click those pots every 5 mins, there is no reason everyone should be able to just run from here to there. Sell the ability to run for $10 that lasts 20 minutes at most. Walking is healthier on our joints anyways... right?

so do I need to turn in my event stuff b4  3pm or will the guy still be there after maintenance?

The maintenance almost alwasy removes the event NPCs.

I can't see why this would be an exception to that.

Often Aion patches can take many hours over eta, if it comes up in an hour it won't be breaking any upgrade outage records.

idk, it seems pretty obvious they broke the authentication server. It hasn't come up once, but the game servers keep coming up and going down. Like they keep on testing changes and restarting the main servers, but still can't find the fix.

They keep the Auth server offline until the game servers are up and ready to go.

They could also bring up the servers without connecting them to network to test. Either way, would be interesting to know what wasn't working...ill be waiting for my 10plat + 15 crown survey 😃

Big updates will have their delays/hiccups. But to be far, these maintenance times should be done during non peek hours so it doesn't affect the already dwindling player base. It gives more room for error and time to fix these things when people aren't trying to use your services as much. its poor business practice, you don't see  Walmart(as an example) closed between 6am-11pm for restoking and maintenance, that would lose them a lot of customers and money. So you should be doing the same.

Oh man, there goes the [Event] NPC like 20 mins ago... Lol what a joke and considering their disdain for us lately, as if they'd even think twice about putting him back so we can spend our stupid coins

Meh, I cashed in my Event coins yesterday, I pays to play it safe.
