Made pretty funny reading how we’re just getting what we asked for and it’s not Funcom cutting costs by removing servers. Thread did not age well.
I mean who in their right mind would fail to see issues with level 60s being able to regularly transfer server with an inventory full of bombs in a game already plagued by exploits, cheats, dupes and zerg clans? So assuming the above issues are obvious, why do it? kindness or prep for server shut downs? So much for Codemage’s crazy theory
Ok, so own up, who asked for the current bomb dupe Funcom kindly provided? Cos with the server transfers it’s an amazingly effective way of wiping complete servers and turning people away from the game. Although the bomb dupe has been widely known and reported for what, a month? Pretty sure Funcom must have fixed it now though right? It’s not in their interests to see official server pops declining. Or is it?
My point? it’s just a funny mess.
***Post got hidden as apparently it’s offensive or against some rule that boils down to not being able to criticise the game. The rush to silence anyone we don’t agree with continues I guess.
Bravo Funcom! How’s the work on that game destroying bomb dupe going? Is it true what people say, old games don’t make no new money, so at this point you just don’t care? A lot of poor folk have spent a lot of time playing the game and building up their bases in good faith, and now the scourge of endless duped dragon powder wipes even the toughest fortresses.
But don’t talk about it! Suffer in silence please. We don’t want (the very few) players who don’t know finding out how someone was able to rock up at their painstakingly farmed base with 2k dragon powder to wipe every single block. Surely the forum should be ablaze with complaints? Odd that.
Is it really acceptable, aside from all the other BS, that it’s been a month or more that this bomb dupe has existed and nothing has been done. Surely a fix for this issue should be the no.1 priority if you care at all about your player base.
If your base was wiped and you found out it was due to bomb duping, I imagine the inclination to play would disappear. My clan stopped playing when we heard about it, it makes defences pointless and farming a job your doing for someone else. The only options are to cheat as well or wait to be the victim, no thanks. How long do you expect players to wait for a fix? cos it’s a fools errand to play before it’s fixed, maybe even after if bombs and dragon powder aren’t decayed. Some have turned the dupe into a fulltime job. How long do you expect your player base to wait before they move on?
I get the dupe doesn’t affect pve, but fixing it doesn’t negatively impact it either, so surely we can all agree it is not good enough that it persists? I can’t imagine Ark or Rust to allow such a fundamentally problematic exploit to exist for so long and perhaps that’s part of why their player retention is so high. Conan has as much potential as either of those games, so whats holding it back? Wake Up Funcom.
Oh well 3, 2, 1 post hidden again.
