    i've always been curious, certainly now as mmo's have larger base of adult gamers, who will make a mmo with promises like ZoS from the start and charge flat monthly 25 to 50 dollars. Somewhere in there, I would jump on it in a heartbeat.

    If they tried to charge 25+ noone would pay it. Fact is all MMOs have cash shops. In exchange fo.r not making you pay a sub they sell these convenience things like horse training etc. If they sell that stuff that means I can play for free. I think thats a very good trade.

    And MMO's have been getting worse and worse every year since cash shops started being implemented. Just because it's how it is doesn't mean it's how it should be.

    EDIT: And if the only way for MMOs to survive is through F2P and cash shops, then they deserve to die.

    Well you can either opine for the "good old days" like my grandfather did (rest his soul) or you can accept times have changed.

    God forbid I go for the 3rd option of hoping thing turn around for the better.


    I am hoping the players being ripped off by bite trolls will be made better by reducing the demand and creating an alternative source to disempower trolls.

    I am glad you agree with me.

    Actually this is a MMO. It does take work and dedication.

    If no other players can con me out of leveling up or somehow spawn kill the monster I need to beat to progress then you won't hear a peep.

    Again its a game to play. Its not work. Its not an accomplishment like building habitat for humanity.

    Vr14 is sadder and higher in time wasted playing a great game. Nothing else. Just have. Fun and stop worrying if people pay to get something.
    All that matters to you is that you didn't right?

    So again, its a win for everyone.

    Oh vr14 , I will be with you my darling.

    What you're failing to understand that by placing more and more emphasis on Crown Store sales, no matter what items are there, the game will become more dependent on those sales to maintain server quality. It sets the game down a very negative path of eventually turned completely F2P and stunting further growth/content development/etc.

    What you are failing to realize is that it already is.

    I would rather infection in the crown store than something of any actual value.
    Vampirism is the same as a horse or horse lessons or the imperial race.

    You just don't like it and I get that.

    Bite trolling is still a problem and can be fixed this way. Or maybe randomize the spawns so trolls can't camp them.

    Either way its a plan that could work to fix a problem.

    Use this thread to suggest your own fix for players stealing from other players and be constructive and helpful to your community.

    I can tell some people are just arguing without merit and missing an opportunity to problems solve as A community.

    I won't pay in game or in the crown store for a bite, I'll get it or not, I don't care. But I'll be ok for that option in the store if it can make some babies stop crying for a candy. ;) And if nobody was willing to pay for a bite, there'll be no sellers at all, if you can't be patient and get trolled that's sad but people selling services in game (for real or not) always existed and will not cease to exist as long as players are willing to pay to get things in a faster and easier way. :/

    Actually we are arguing with proof that the problem will fix itself as it did before. God forbid we ask any of you console players for a little patience and understanding, eh?

    Keep telling yourself what your doing is the same work as say a soldier or a doctor.

    I love the game. Its a fun experience but its not work.

    I get into it too.
    But cmon.

    You love the game and have a great time playing it.
    You have enough time to really savor it.
    Some people don't.
    So why would you deny these new players a chance to experience a thing you like and have in common.

    We should all have the choice to play as we prefer.

    Infections in the crown store are a win win.

    No. I won't wait to suggest a fix.

    I have heard at least three instances of troll conning in a month.


    Whose whining?

    I am constructively engaging the community to suggest a fix for a known problem.
    Thanks for posting and raising awareness about the issue though.

    You will probably find it best just to not respond to people calling you names. If they cant have a discussion without calling people names maybe they arent worth your time responding to.

    No, no need to allow the purchase of a skill line for crowns, that would lead to the beginning of the end for this game.

    Truth. It's almost as if they are implementing broken game mechanics only to "fix" them with cash shops.

    Nope. Players with low morals found a way to exploit and ruin other players experiences.

    Zos prob couldn't have seen this kind of pathetic bite marketing and con theft when they made the game.

    They were just making a fun experience. It was the slime trying to profit off of other players that opened the door to the false offers of vamo infection.

    Don't for one second try to blame zos for the sad crap the no lifers thought up.

    Zos is free to use whatever means they want alleviate the situation of players being robbed by other players.

    The crown store is just the simplest most elegant solution.

    You're such an idiot, lol.

    You should be careful friend some people on these forums are easily offended by direct insults that are in violation of chat code. One warning OK. Stay on topic and be constructive.

    Thanks for helping to raise awareness of the need for infections in the crown store.
    Cheers.

    Again what you call whining is the harrasment of the new player base over something as trivial as a vamp bite.
    Selling the infection in the crown store would fix people trolling for bites.



    Please keep the discussion positive so you can avoid being reported.

    Then would you care to consider the alternative methods already presented to you? As it is you have largely been ignoring them or intentionally getting frustration riled up. Crown store is not the only legitimate option, yet you speak as if it is.

    I'm glad you bring it up.

    NYC in the 80s was a lawless dangerous place.
    Then 1987-2014 rolled around with new ideas about not wanting to be neck stabbed on a subway or falsely offered infection ( of course back then it was prob HIV)

    And ta da NYC is shiny and nice. Youre welcome.
    Oh and get off the forums and go back to your AOL online disc Mr it was better back in my day.

    You can't has Internet's if you wanna play the old man card.
