    Agreed. Consider my statement not valid for tokens. Still i don't like LVLs in the shop of above stated reasons.

    So when I head over to ely or inf or any dungeon/pf to level and everyone is gone because they paid to level up, so I head over to BS to have some fun but everyone has bought thier VP/tokens.


    What exactly am I going to do in this game?
    This was what I was wearing. Tell me I asked for it

    Thumbs up Wow!!

    These changes look awesome!

    1. For a NON-PVPER the VP changes are long overdue and most welcome. Please don't let PVPers scrap this change when they already have hundreds of thousands of VP doing nothing on their toon, while NON-PVPERS have to farm 80 million Aliumz Mishes to get VP. This mechanic has always been completely unfair to ppl who don't enjoy PVP.

    2. Alot of other games (including AoC iirc) allow you to start a new character at a higher lvl than lvl 1 after you have already lvled a character on that acct to max. AO Classic (ie lvl 1-199) is "froob" anyway, most endgame content requires expansions, and at this point anyone who know how AO works and already has a 220 on their account can lvl a toon from 1-200 in like 3 days if they wanted to. I see no problems with letting me have a 199 char in exchange for $ thats going to keep AO going strong and let development continue.

    3. I can finally get a Panda head... THANK YOU MEANS!! <3

    4. As far as tokens, there really isnt any need for that anymore due to dailys, but I can see how some ppl might want it as an option. However from dailies my 217 sol that I rolled in march has nearly 5k tokes lol. Dailys = uber.

    Thanks Means and the AO crew, the future is looking very bright and shiny indeed!!!

    P.S. One part of the sol nano document was confusing, the part about 66% changed to 50%... was that a nerf or a boost lol?

    Can't help but feeling "Victory Points for Money" is nothing more than getting spit on.


    Great the only thing left to do ingame, will suffer. It's not like raiding needs more than you and your dual logged account anymore.

    Looking at the current trend with the S7 weapons, profession locks and TL3 equipment requirements.

    If this game is not heading down easy street, where is it heading again?

    this is worst game store as that can be. seriously.

    example of good Game Stores is LOTRO-store (best) and DDO-store (just nice).

    tokens, VP and LEVELS (especially) must be removed from store - this can ruin game.

    Nice! I almost regret buying nanos for 4925822 people for free now. Good change.
    Buying VP for RL Money.. meh. But I don't care to much about that. I'll prefer the pvp way.

    Items not available NOW...but planned for in the future:

    Time Limited Access (passes) to expansion content for free players.

    Level packs (Boost to 50, Boost to 100, Boost to 150, Boost to 199). These items will only be available to accounts that already have a 220 Character as an option for those who want to play another profession at end game but do not have the time or inclination to replay the lower level end of the game another time.
    I'm not too happy with that. A game should be played. With the 220 requirement I can accept it if it helps revenue. But the boost to 150 for example is really cheesy. Roll toon boost to 150 buy the twink bag if you need to, equip stuff and start owning sec10... Bad level range imo. Same for the 199 and sec7 though currently sec7 may not be that farm worthy.

    When tokens will finally be (legally) buyable, do you have plans to again look into those neckitems you promised neutrals?

  14. #54
    if you really want sell VP, you can make temporary VP-gaining buff, like XP-stims.

    For example - w/o buff you gain 1000 VP, with buff 1300. This is easy coded and you must PvP anyway, but less then w/o buff.

    Hey PVPERS

    1. I'll repeat this cos many ppl dont seem to listen, SOME PPL DONT LIKE TO PVP! lol, Why is that such a hard concept to get?

    2. PVP is hardly the only thing to do endgame...

    3. Do you guys love PVPING or getting VP? If you like to PVP for its own sake then how has this change in anyway affected you lol?

    4. So if NONPVPERS actually have a chance of using items that should never have been linked to a PVP only currency anyway (we all know that aliumz mishes are NOT a viable substitute), then AO is "going down the drain"? Why? Cos PVPERS wont have a monopoly on VP anymore?

    5. Last but not least, as always with anything you find in life... if you dont like it, DONT DO IT! But dont tell me I cant because you dont want to...

    3: No. I hate PVP.

    4: This can be easily solved by making the VP rewards of AImishes higher.

    EDIT: The suggested PVP or Pay solution is in fact another thing to favor PVPers IMO.
