The Problem for New Players

[Xello]

New players are slammed right now, which is retarded, as you're driving away new or returning customers who're here to check out 1.19.

Dated gear = crappy. non optimum gear = crappy. then add in nobody has even started making the new 'uncrappy' gear yet. We had a bunch of new players on today, and they struggled.

Until a lvl 50 found the level difference restrictions were gone, and power levelled the shit out of them.

GG on balance there.

The dated stuff combined with the fact there is no new gear for sale yet, COMBINED with the fact crafters being the greedmongers they are (the economy was wacky anyway) Are gonna charge through the nose for the new stuff because they can.


So the newbies are running around in their starting clothes, weak as hell, unable to fight stuff of the same level in a lot of cases. They don't have the kind of money for the prices the new gear will cost. and crafters will only be interested in the 'money synths' anyway, the gear the lowbies need just isn't going to be available.

GG Guys, you actually created a mire between rich and poor. In a video game.

New players got rammed, and it's a shame, cause this patch was pulling genuine interest.
