Hello. I have came up with a list of some of the things that are really messed up with this game. Right now, I hate Anarchy-Online. There is nothing to do. Leveling takes too long, PvP is all about reflect and crit, and there is no content. Nothing you can roleplay. So, here is my list.
1.) Shooting thru walls: I try to use my surrounding to my advantage - The Ent arena. I like to go into sneak mode before a battle, creep behind the piller, and cast TMS or another slow buff, to give me a time advantage of them having to run around the piller to shoot me. There are 2 problems with that. 1. Somehow, players are able to shoot thru a piller about 4m thick of concret. And 2, which leads onto my second complaint.
2.) Sneaking: Buffed, I have 1124 concealment. I know most (if not all) players my level can not see me, as level 200 mobs can't. But somehow they manage to. I'll go into sneak mode and some level 10 or whatever will come by and say "Hey, I see you!" Thats ... Not right. Sneaking seems to work in PvM, but in PvP. No. Maybe 10% of the time.
3.) Lag: I have a 256K DSL connection. I want to know why it takes me so long to zone into a place as simple as a store or a mission. Zoning into Tir, Trade, or Ent ... Thats another story, it takes so long. There should be no reason for this.
4.) Framerates: I have a Pentium4 processor, 768MB of ram, GeForce3 Ti500 graphics card with 64MB of video ram and the newest drivers, a 30 GB and a 100 GB 7400 RPM harddrives configured very nicely. And I defrag about once a week. Now, my point. I try running thru a city, and I'm skipping everywhere. I get like 19 FpS, and I have the graphics set to about half. I know this is not a problem with my computer hardware or software or how it is configured. So, you really need to fix your framerate/graphics problems.
5.) Broken HP bars: "You hit whoever for 1376 points of Aimed Shot damage." "You hit whoever for 900 points of energy damage. Critical hit!" "You hit whoever for 1000 points of energy damage. Critical hit!" And guess what? My enemys HP bar doesnt move. I doubt even if I was fighting a doctor with maxed Nano Init and Complete Heal that they could heal fast enough to keep there HP bar at full. I know its a bug, you need to fix it. How am I susposed to know if I should use my Aim Shot or my Crit buff right now or after another 2 hits if there HP bar doesnt move?
6.) Shotguns (or other guns?) doing higher AimShots then Agents using rifles: I am a level 158 agent with maxed AimShot and a ql 200 X3 or Carterwaul on and somehow a some damn NanoTech will be using a snakemaster or an ithica (I think the Ithica has AS) and he will hit me for more of an AS. This isnt a one time thing, its a almost everytime thing. I doubt that enemy has a higher aimshot skill then I do, being that I have AS implants and can cast Take The Shot (+130 AimShot.) You should correct this also.
7.) Lack of content: There is nothing to do! You can do the same missions from level 90 to 200. Or you can *try* to PvP. I say *try* because if you dont have reflect bracers, and some outside buffs, you probably wont do good. You need to add more things to do!
8.) Lack of events: Aside from all the time things (content) you should have special events. And, you don't. Very rarely will you have some, and if you do. They don't last long or turn out too well (from my experience) You should have 1 or 2 events a week. Be it a clan attack on some omni outpost, or Phillip Ross making an appearence. We just need something!
9.) Terrible economy - Prices vs. Credits: The economy is so terrible. The only things that seem to sell for good money these days are: Dragonflesh body armor, Grid Armor, and Nullity Sphere. With the new love to the fixers, everyone is starting one. And in turn, they want Grid armor so they can be a better player. Since Grid Armor is rare, it costs a lot. And again since it is rare, chances are you wont find any and again be able to make some good money. Same thing goes for the dragonflesh armor, and Nullity sphere (Well, not the whole Fixer part.) I tried selling a ql 200 X-3 rifle today, and I didn't get one offer. Along with some other high level - Semi rare stuff. Not one offer. Why? Its not Grid Armor or whatever. All that means the avarage person is too poor to afford the items that he/she needs to make a good character.
10.) Dumb gaurds: I don't get why if you attack and kill a guard (well, not even kill) he can't call for backup or whatever? I mean, here comes big mean clanner. He kills 1 or 2 gaurds and can now walk all over Ent without a worry about garuds. Should be like Gaurd: "I'm under attack, please send backup and search the area!!!" But no. :sighs: Also, what is the reasoning behind the backyard gaurds/guides being so much stronger then the city ones? If they city and backgaurd garuds traded places, it would help the citys protection, and make a lot of sense.
11.) Pet pathing: I'm no big pet user (aside from the sometimes False Profession: Meta Physicist) but I feel the pain, and see it. High levels usually dont even use pets (Aside from some MPs using heal pet) because it takes to long to get them to follow becasue of the pathing. That takes away from the reason to be a pet using class.
12.) XP: As I said before, for leveling. You do just about the same thing (And quality level, missons that is) from around level 90-200. This is boring. And with every level you get, you get less XP. When I was level 110ish I was getting MUCH more xp then I am now at level 158. And being that I take like 10 more mil (I don't know, a lot) XP to level, it takes too long.
Well, I believe that is all. What I'm trying to say is I hate this game becasuse of those listed reasons. I would have more, but I put this list together in my last 2 days of gaming and some memories. You need to fix this stuff. People are soon enough not going to be able to take it and start closing there accounts (as I'm thinking about doing.) I know this is a lot, so take your time on your reply. Best of luck. :tips hat:
By The Way ... This is the same thing I sent to feedback and support. Just if they don't respond maybe someone else will. Everyone who reads this, please post your responses. I might not have made sense on somethings. It was a lot to type so I may have got things mixed up
