  • If the hardware and network 15 years ago can handle a full shard with all housing. 15 years x Moore's law plus fibre network should be fine if they don't cut corners. If the server crash then we know why.

  • should pvp start naked and the participants run into the arena to pickup items to equip in order to kill the other.  Think #hungergames

  • Yukio was highly dependent on luck... At the latter stage of the event, I heard others suspected drop rate is tweaked lower.

  • We already expected challenges in the open Destard terrain and Destard paragons. The main issue is that they didn't react fast enough to stop the event after the first day. So there are lesser players in the dungeon thereafter.

  • I think it is clear what is cheating. It is also clear why they can't remove them 100%. The answers are in 5 pages of forum thread for those topic.
  • CC is still around because substantial users stucked with it either because of graphics or 3rd party. Removing both could mean a significant lost of the existing player base. So if they really want to upgrade, it's not just about new graphics engi…

  • Stop defending for the Devs. We don't need excuses.  We just need them to listen to what we want.  And go in change the date to 4th July. Paid job for one man that can be done in 10 secs. This thread has thousands of words just to help him save…

  • Yeah we also have popping, on demand bookmarks like this post. Told them to update the Navigation bar with just a one liner code for Everyone. They prefer each request to be a new Forum thread.  You are not the first to ask, and will not be the l…
  • It should be easier than NLS, to make a EC version 2.0 with switchable graphics. I believe they can block access based on client type. E.g. If we don't patch client they blocked our login. They can tell us alot of users are still using CC which is…
  • Warrior has no change, even sampire is based on bushido, chivalry, necromancy... up to age of samurai. That was ages ago. Only tamers are revamped several times.  Every non crafting template had a boost with mastery.
  • McDougle said: It's odd that people have this standard of accountability from tug and the one time payment while they just accept whatever from the developers... ... who get paid.
  • Can we get 6 x cameo and 1 custom castle as reward!!!?

  • So the official stance is probably based on the 100% time spent: 98% NLS 1.2% seasonal content 0.79999% routine maintenance 0.00001% bug fixes 0% counter scripts or cheats
