Roll Over Minutes for Tomes Please

[FMElan]

(snip)

Yes, because why would we want people to feel like they have to log into a game they're paying monthly for?

And people not logging in for 2-3 weeks in a row because "their seals will roll over anyway" IS a big deal for the life of the game. The entire POINT of these lockouts(loot limits in CT, run limits in Coil, Myth Tome caps) is to keep people playing the game despite its currently limited content.

Okay, so let's see if I get this straight.

You pay for 3 months in a row, play and reach 50 in the first, let's say two weeks. Let's assume that your "rollover tomes" only activate when you hit 50 and complete the main scenario. After that, you leave town/your computer crashes/you're stuck on a deserted island and you don't come back to the game for two months.

Now, let's say a month after you left, someone buys the game. They, like you, purchase a 90 day subscription, get to 50 and complete the main scenario in two weeks. After that, they continue playing the game, every single day, for the next month.

So you've returned from whatever was keeping you away from the game. Are you honestly telling me that you're entitled to earn more Mythology than person B, simply because you started playing the game earlier?

The suggestion for myth rollovers is nothing more than personal greed and envy.

You play the Game - You get rewareded. You dont play the Game - you dont get rewareded. This is how MMOs work.

I like the principle but how is this any different to someone who's just started playing? Are they also always going to be behind? I've just hit 49 and I'm fine, sure all the original players are streets ahead in terms of gear, but I'll get there - in my own time

Then why was it changed for guild leves?

In his example, he said that the second person started a month later but actively played the whole time.. so in his example, yes, person A (who left the game for whatever reason) would have more myths because of the rollover simply because they had an account longer. that isn't fair to someone who has been actively playing. If you cant play the game, you cant play the game. end of story.

So it's not fair to the player who bought the game later? Really? He wasn't paying for it before then. Really, player A misses 2 months but continues to pay his subscription. He would not be able to earn tomes with any less effort than player B. Whether he runs 80 times in 8 weeks, or 80 times in one week, he would still have to spend the same amount of time doing the runs if he wants to catch up. I certainly wouldn't want to attempt 80 runs in one week. But if someone wants to, more power to them.

Player A, knowing he will be gone for two months could simply let his sub expire and get nothing. But if he chooses to continue paying while not playing, shouldn't there be some sort of compensation for that? And player B, exactly how is it not fair to him because he bought the game later? Player A is probably a totally irrelevant person to him and doesn't effect Player B's game at all. And I doubt Player B would be complaining if he wanted to take a vacation and could make up his tomes later.

1 myth per day, 30 every month, they are deleted @ end of the month if the player doesn't log in atleast once during that month

if a player logs in more then once in 1 month, it disables this feature & any myths earned using said feature are deleted, only way to retain the myths earned is to head to the mog station and accept them from there plus a "fee"(myths)





^ only way i will accept the advantage and the idiocy of rewarding people who don't even play

Which will solve absolutely nothing. I'm sure people will take 10 seconds to log in and out to disable that.

you won't fall behind..new players starting way later can still earn their gear and run dungeons

people probably think AK & WP are too hard so they want free tomes. you dont have to cap your myth tomes on monday you have 7 days to do it.

i know for a fact alot of people been failing on the pudding boss in WP and thats way easier then AK, because when i queue in DF im always coming into a party at that point.
