So when will the fixes for the stuff that matters be addressed?

1. The decrease in defense/ damage bug.
I believe that outspark might try to pass off this nerf as a bug and in time we'll forget about it in order to slow down our leveling or force the use of leveling packs to increase exp. or the 30% hp/sp cards to compensate for lack of defense.

2. The decreased drop rate.

Once again, while this may not apply personally, but the decreased drop rate of everything to 1 and ZERO lumps of silver dropping. You guys are doing nothing but forcing more people to buy silver and increasing the rate of spammers.
For those that don't know, in the Japanese/Korean version, the NPC buy rate is already twice of what ours is. So in essence, we gain money half the rate of the other version. So is this another attempt to slow us down or force us to buy more packs?

Call me paranoid but the lack of focus on fixing these GAME BREAKING bugs vs. fixing crap like windmill texture or dances, or holiday snows shows where the company's priority is. Milking the most out of their players before they quit out of frustration and fed up with game breaking bugs.

***Edit****

Update, as of this morning,
Based, on Sking's post, http://www.outspark.com/forums/showthread.php?t=35390, the drop rate will be fixed, here's to hoping that silver lumps will drop again.

Wow, I didn't know about the item price differences.

I guess that explains why 20 gear is SO RIDICULOUSLY EXPENSIVE to us. That really bothers me.

Also, why didn't they get rid of the dang snow?

I agree though, fix this guys, or you're gonna drive off your players.

Okay one of the major things that could have been fixed this patch could have been removing the snow. Come on it shouldn't be hard to remove it. You removed the dance why not remove the snow.

The drop rate needs to be seen to now. EVERYONE is suffering, even those who had saved money up. The only ones not suffering are the bots/gold spammers.

I'm glad you fixed some things, but fix what needs to fixed in order that everyone can actually level. For every experience I gain I die because of the snow and therefore lose that hard earned 1%. I know it is the snow because when I'm where it isn't there is no lag. I know I shouldn't lag because where I am training there are very few people to none at all.

Same for me, Dolly, I had to just do KQs due to the snow lag, since there's no snow in KQs. Towns are horrid.

Thus, I've just been making money over the christmas season. Ho ho ho. :D

And I thought it was just me.

Id like to say a thing or two about this personally -

I use a gathering pack - always - It supposedly increases drop rate dramatically but ever since the last holiday patch I have been getting almost nothing , at first I thought it was just me but then I talked to others and eventually we arrived at a consensus that there is indeed a problem here at least client side it appears as if there has been a significant decrease in drop rates on just about everything.


As for what to fix - I believe outspark was quoted in the holiday patch updates as adding " new zones" . As in done . Added . Finished etc.

The only thing ive seen insofar as new zones are a few new areas on the map. Just because you draw water colors on a piece of paper and pretend that there are "new magical zones" "waiting to be explored" doesent mean they really exist. I mean if I could draw things with my magic markers on a piece of paper and those places just magically existed in my own " special place" id be a king of all puma's. Thats just not gonna happen now is it?

I wish instead of fixing these cosmetic changes they would fix , I dunno , the gates leading into these "new" areas. The fact that it has indeed taken so long (is taking so long) to fix gates would lead one to believe that the new zones are not even finished , are still under construction and only the gates are existent. If I wasent a paying customer (and a damn good paying one at that) I wouldent complain at all . Since I am however - HEAR MY RANT!

Actually, the Snow is being removed. Compare the Monday update Post, and the Post SnakeEyes made referring to the listed problems so far. I will link them both.

SnakeEye's post: http://outspark.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34038 (aka Snow will be removed with the Holiday environment).
