Muhahahahahahhaha, this is gonna be good. Though it made me frown a bit
to know this concert is going to be pushed back a week again. I wonder
if there will be a new sticker-thing pronouncing the new dates on the
Blue Sky signs in the parks. There's like three already on them because
of the multiple delays, haha.

I`d like to make a comment on the following:

 Why would be choose to use those instead of old ones? Because the beta jump doesnt use any buffer space and if you pvp, you can remove the need for loading the normal jump giving you an extra few buffer units to load another attack/defense move. So your answer to that question is that we would use the old ability in pvp because it is an advantage over players who dont have it. Allowing the so called vets the ability to have extra moves loaded whilst still having the rather major advantage of being able to jump out of danger.

He was not asking us why we would use those abilities, he is saying that they have been asked why they are using the same ones instead of coming up with new ones SMILEY


 


hope that helps SMILEY

It doesnt matter how I read the notes Nicksie my point still stands fair and square and that is that anyone who has mobius code and (mainly) beta-jump have a distinct advantage over others when it comes to pvp.


Soe say how they are very useful to low levels but didnt actually mention anything about how useful they are to high levels also.  I am merely pulling all sides of the argument into the conversation.


Ask yourself the question - Why are all the "VETS" asking Soe why they are giving out those two abs instead of creating new ones?  sry but the answer points to "becoz they dont want these new players to have that advantage" ,,  selfish as it is.


There are many ways to look at it and I apologise if this is somewhat annoying to yourself but what this all boils down to is that there is a balance issue here, and players like myself who do not have these abilities are quite frankly feeling a bit cheated.


What I`m trying to get over is that these abs if they are being made available to new players on trial should be made available to everyone who currently plays.


edit* they could have it like the increased red frag drop rates or the vendors buying abilities thing where you could buy these 2 abs from a vendor for a limited time only,, make them untradeable and singular to inventories/code storage and then remove them after a set period of time...

I agree too, if you're giving it to new players you should give it to the exhisting players who have supported this game & kept it alive so you could even have this trial. I understand wanting to do whatever to get new players to try the game, but you shouldn't do it at the expense of exhisting players.


And you can't just give Mobius because that would screw over players like myself who have Mobius but not HJ Beta.

maybe Im being ignorant to beta jump, is there a dif btween beta jump and hyper jump. If so I retract my statment about the devs can keeps it/ I want it.


 


But no matter what give me morbius or give me a subscription to a non SOE game

Beta Jump is locked at level 10, but it doesn't use up any memory points to load.  This makes it less than completely useful for exploring and whatnot, but VERY useful as a combat manuever because most people have a better use for the two points it takes to load HJ.


Oh, and for the record, I think this is a little cheap too.  I've been around since last April, so I missed out on all of the Beta stuff (fine by me, really.  It was a Beta incentive and reward, and it's fine by me if it stays that way) but I don't think new players should get something I (or any other long term but not Beta players) didn't really have the chance to.

Its pretty cheap that because I didn't pre-order the game so I didn't get HJ-Beta (it was the "prize" for pre-order and not Beta like the clothes. I got the game the day it came out and new players are getting it? Its a little unfair. They may as well give every account ONE HJ-Beta (like they are doing for the free trial, only one character is getting it and not anyone they make)

How angry am I? Cold.


New players get a nice HJ-beta.


I have been paying for this game for a year now (missed pre-order and by the time I could afford to buy HJ-Beta, the dev's had decided to make it non-tradeable), and what do I get?


I get the ...



And what about all the others that have joined between beta and now? What do they get?


The same, they get the same too.
