Varium pricetag is prolly there becuase Variums are supposted to get the good stuff first so insted of Releasing $20-$30 of Varium gear they put up a $10 battle mode for Variums to entertain themselfs with


Which would you rather have $20 that will last you two weeks at the tops or $10 to test a new battle mode and a reward plus a chance at an achievment


i think $10 was the better deal

I'm curious to think what you think our conversations are like- it's more like "Hmm... the battle mode SHOULD be working, and it works with the four of us- but we're still not sure. Maybe adding a cost to it will keep the number of juggernaut battles to a reasonable amount, in case it breaks the game." rather than "mwahaha... how else can we screw over our players?"


Cinderella, you absolutely MUST be forward-thinking enough to anticipate how players will react to every update. It's common business sense (PR Department, anyone?). Further, every release does not occur in a vacuum. You already have a player base who regards the ED team as greedy, so each release that involves Varium (especially a Battle Mode), will only create more animosity between us.

ED does indeed have a reputation. You need to be more cognizant of that in the future. Customer satisfaction is at an-all time low, so you guys should really error on the side of caution and overthink how players wll react to future updates.

@LambO- I was pointing that out because I don't appreciate being accused of being money hungry. ;)

@Cinderella, I'm not sure if people are making it out that you're Money-hungry, but if it looks like I'm doing it also I'm sorry. I ment Titan & Nightwraith only.

This is why I'm really so pee'd off:
I was so happy when I heard the new battle mode has finally come. I haven't played ED since August last year.
(I come on to talk/try a quest or so, but haven't battled with anyone)

I even brought a 10k varium package for my return to ED to start playing again. I was ready.
Me buying varium is not a problem, I'm happy to do it, I hate to get ripped off though. That is why I'm so pissed off. I wanted to come back to have fun, not to come back to pay for a battle mode to destroy non-varium players who just have no chance in this game anymore. Every week it's just varium based & it's just too overpriced. The Dev's can't expect the paying community to keep us with this outrageous price on everything. The worst thing is though, there not listening. They just keep releasing & dissapearing till the next 'varium-base' release.

So any positive comments on why I should buy the card then?
Not the easy wins over low-level non-varium players...


EDIT: I'll be back in a few hours to respond back, if someone responded to me, lol..

We know that staff accounts tend to have some crazy rare weapons as a reward for helping us moderate and build the game, so to be fair, we have restricted the leaderboard to exclude staff accounts, Titan and myself included. Staff can still receive their Rarity Score, but will not be posted on the leaderboard.

As you can see the mods with green names have been lie to us when say don't get free stuff.

It's pretty impossible to please everybody all the time- and I know that a lot of people are complaining because they'd expected things exactly to their specifications (always a fear about accepting weapons for Player Suggestion Shops- are they going to get mad at me if we don't use their stats they'd assigned?) or believe that, since they suggested something no matter how unfeasible, they're entitled to have us change the entire game for their suggestion (for example, removing the turn-based engine).
Plyaer suggestion shops, well about that if you don't want to give the creators the weps they created is fine but don't make it varium, other thing some of the ed tema said they didn't want to mess up with Aqw's event but you know what? you didn't! but you did ruin your own game release, not talking bout juggernaut anymore but about more nonvarium weps, is jsut kind of bored to win, win,win,lose,win,win the same pattern everyday because I'm a varium user, I was having more Fun. I didn't knew being varium was so bored, now I know why varium players quit. When we give a suggestion about the engine is not for only us, but for all. I suggest many good ideas about power hours boosters, about arcade and what? They didn't even checked Cindy . I'm a beta tester player and I have always try to help others here and in Aqw but now the only I can do is to say you have done the worst thing you could, You didn't give attention to players.

@mir- not all mods get mod perks, though many do. We really don't like to talk about it too much, for obvious reasons.

@above- there's a huge volume in the Player Suggestion thread- art takes time.

The dev's can't really help the community because everyone wants different things .. that's why there's a lot of flaming in balance threads.

lolwut? Fix your spelling. Don't flame others. Ever.

It's stupid to keep arguing. You can lead a horse to a river, but you can't force it to drink.

Change to:
No offence, but I have no computer background whatsoever. It's as if I was saying that I'd love to see you run a hotel as a manager. No offence, but you wouldn't have a clue where to get started.

And honestly, I doubt you could even run a hotel with the way you spell your sentences.

What you guys don't get is that 3 deelopers, exc luding Cinderella, cannot do everything you want. What did you expect?

Forums: GIMME FREE VARIUM
Devs: Gives 5k Var out

Is that what you expected?

The devs work hard to bring out what we want. They can't give us everything we want because that takes way too muich effort. You have to program and draw. Someone do that for a 2vs1 engine. If yu can, then I'll criticize the devs. Until then, I support Cindy and the devs.

@Mir

Some mistakes in your last post.

quote:

my guess is that they make 25 dollars and hour


Based on your vast knowledge of EDs finances?

quote:

I know there are more then 4 staff that work on ED.


Titan, Nightwraith, Charfade and Cindy ..... Name more I'll be surprised.


And I'm out. (Not replying again)

@Mir, I am tired of you trying to run the forums. I hope this will slash many of your comments.

1. It costs varium to ensure the system won't break the game. (Hmm, Herosmash alpha?)
2. You, yes YOU, only have to wait a measly 6 days to play.
3. How do we know these choices are souly the devs? Artix could have a large role in how this game operates.
4. The DEVS get a set paycheck, money earned goes to AE, then a fraction goes to them.
5. Mods work for free, unless you think access to weapons and such for testing and as a gift is worth real money? They are nice people thar just want to help out. Leave them alone (including Cindy)
6. Cindy is nice enough to respond to all your flames and such in a respectable manner, I think you should try.
