    All together now...

    WOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
    (If I had a vuvuzela, I'd be blowing it)

    Tons more social clothes available to froobs and sloobs, and of course, more stuff for us to pay for points on. Win-win all around! Now I can dress up like Stigman and follow him around like an annoying fanboy... wait did I type that oops.

    Seriously, I am LOVING this news. Thank you for your reply, and the upcoming changes you mentioned. \m/ <3

    edit: I feel bad. I complained about the Alien daily mission difficulty, and the paid points vendor, and now they're both being changed. I'm making more work for you guys! I'm sorry I'm sorry ;_; Also I don't want to turn into one of those guys who only posts to say you need to change stuff.

    Tested on my keeper and did a daily mission with xp disabled. soo.... before I did the daily mission I had ~23m in pool and after that I: Your current pool of unsaved experience is 19316284. That doesnt make sense imo.
    It's been like that for a long time now. That's why in an earlier post here I said the change would the reverse of what it is now as currently our pool goes down after a kill even with disable XP turned on. The change just didn't make it to live.

    Er, not really. It makes far more sense to compare it to the existing annual subscription rate as that's what both give at base. There's nothing new about the one year subscription which already let people pay about half as much as they would if they payed monthly. If a nearly 50% savings wasn't enough to get people to go that route before a marginal cost reduction and what's really just a social something wouldn't really change their minds.

    That deal is more for new/fr00b accounts so they get everything and a low one year cost and those that already were willing to lock themselves into a long subscription.

    People are posting their complaints about the rediculous birthday/mech deal treating current yearly subscribers like second class citizens here too.

    Let Funcom know how you feel about the way they are doing this or they'll do worse next time & expect a pat on the back for their efforts.

    Yes, and its getting sad and annoying.

    I have a feeling that if they gave the mech to Everyone, someone would start QQing that the discount for a year subscription wasnt enough, since they are already close to doing that as is.

    The "Trolls" option is incorrect. The term trolls is not used to describe the gathering of information on the Internet.

Now that we're reaching the point where this shop will contain other items, though, the shop should be unlocked to all.

    The glasses and the balloons pet are *not* exclusive to the birthday, and will be kept in the shop for the foreseeable future. In the next update that we release, we will hopefully have the shop unlocked to where all players can access the content within regardless of expansions.

    In addition, as a "whoops, our bust" gesture, we will also be unlocking the AI social clothing, allowing all players to wear the social clothes. I'm sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused, but hopefully we can make it right soon. =)
    Thats great news, oh btw, u might as well unlock the LE nano shop as well, as some of the LE nanos are froobable and froob gain VP in BS too. Make their VP useful As there is no point locking the shop when it can be bypass like asking an expansion player to buy for them.

    Might as well give them full access to Ofab, SL and LoX for free while we're at it, too.

    As far as I know while fr00bs can go into BSs they don't get VP as you need LE to gain VP. Sort of like how fr00bs can kill aliens but unless you have AI you don't register any alien kills or deaths.

  17. #237
    They can gain VP, they just can't see how much VP they have or use the terminals to spend it at. I bought LE after release, and my accumulated VP was on my toon when I got the expansion.

    Just another incentive to upgrade, in my opinion.

    GM ad back up for Durham:

    http://funcom.easycruit.com/intranet...1/27106?iso=gb

    Assuming they aren't just filling a hole, this looks good - unlike the prior ad, it is for 'AO' not 'AoC/AO'. Could be them starting to ramp up CS ahead of the engine launch (which they know they will need to do).

I'm not sure at this point when we will be showing a video of the new engine...but the work is continuing.

    Have a great weekend everyone!
    Like every friday, i cant stop pushing the F5 button !
