  • Why can't I just invite people to QB/RAR?

    So instead of spinning the wheel on whether or not I can get into a raid with my guildies, I can just make sure they're in the party with me.

    How is it games that came out YEARS before Vindy had lobby/party system that made more sense than this asinine monstrosity? Quick battle. QUIIIIIIICK battle. Nope, can't just invite people to a party and matchmake to find a fourth. Or even host the raid and then invite two people to it. You know what isn't *quick*? Hosting a raid and then hoping people can get to it before randos join.

  • NEXON = About Guilds...

    400 and some and 500 on the dot, for all intents and purposes, are the same damn number. You're the one trying to argue about how that extra 70 people makes all the difference and somehow invalidates my overall point about how dead this game is. If that's a hill you wanna die on, that's on you lol.

    "only need 15-23 active people" I have neither the time nor the crayons to illustrate to you how divorced from reality this take is. Even bigger guilds are drying up judging by the amount of higher end players I see looking for guilds (all of whom pass on a Nightcap invite, I ask them, for the record). If the game's population wasn't totally dead, this conversation wouldn't even be happening.

    But by all means, deepthroat Nexon, they *totally* deserve the praise.

    Wow dude, 4/20 was yesterday you know right? I'd love to have some of whatever you were smoking. Yeah okay, argue semantics over how 400 and 500 are TOTALLY different numbers when there are games on Steam with a few hundred thousand players and this game, at its absolute peak, wasn't near that.

    Back at it again with that smug condescending tone while maintaining that you're just oh so 'helpful'. Yeah bud, you guys effortlessly got a couple million guild points. Bet. I like how it's that we're just not working hard enough, while you're trying to humblebrag about not trying all that hard to have a lot of guild activity. You're truly hilarious lol.

    Did you really just hit me with a math quiz just to arrive at literally the same conclusion I did? "There's like 500 people who play this game on Steam daily." "No there's not, there's actually some math later 500, that's a totally different outcome!"

    I, on average, put three hours a day into my own playing (again SOLELY because my guildmate doesn't play literally anything else), am I supposed to make propping up a guild in a dead game a career? Spending hours scouring every last unguilded player, all three of them that exist in this game?

    Our Discord has a channel dedicated to guides to help players out. Chicane and I go out of our way to try to help people out. We DO post megas recruiting and I usually ask anyone who doesn't have a guild, regardless of level or skill, if they'd like to join. Resulting usually in either no comment, or someone joining, playing for a week. then quitting. Best case scenario we get someone who uses their alt character to steal all of our guild crops and literally nothing else, or signs on and just does their own thing even if we try to involve them in our raids or missions or whatever. EDIT: I've offered gold to people I know IRL, literally tried to bribe friends to play this and no interest.

    The game itself is severely unhealthy, it's propped up entirely by players who spend hundreds of dollars on microtransactions. Even some of those types of players are turned off from playing the game across NA, EU, and Korea. They implement changes no one asked for and do things like block certain countries from playing and add the RIDICULOUS fatigue system where playing new missions cost 28% **** percent to run once. Why? Why would I dare put effort into this game when Nexon has such open contempt for its userbase? Adding a battle pass system on top of the endless gachapon boxes and 120 dollar 'comrades' is gross and even talking about it makes me seethe.

    Why do you put up with this game? The combat is fun, kinda. Hardly fun enough to justify all the other ways in which the game tries to **** you, or the baffling design choices like say, for a random example, guild battle bosses not counting towards the bosses daily guild mission. A dozen trash design choices compounded into a miserable experience of a game. Like today's "BRAND NEW CONTENT", which consists of two missions. One of which is entirely recycled content, and the other is a raid which is only half recycled content. The more I talk about it, the more I think this game is absolute trash, and I fail to see why I should put more effort into it than Nexon does.

    EDIT: And I don't know what planet you're from, but gushing praise for this game while being vaguely condescending towards others isn't 'helping' anyone for **** friendo.

    Dude I could make posts hourly and there's absolutely ZERO goddamn way we're ever getting literally millions of guild points like you have, apparently. There's several skills that are around 5k each for a week, times 52 weeks is 260,000 GP, and there's a few skills that are 5k...

    Like she linked above, there's around 400 people who play this game on Steam, and even if you're incredibly generous and say that the Nexon Launcher has 800, that's still 1,200 people MAX, most of whom are either well established with other guilds, or have a passing interest at best in the game and disappear after a few play sessions. We advertise a bit but find that we get players who aren't particularly interested in the game and quit before even putting in 1,000 GP. With bullshit like this fatigue system, even some of our more interested player seem to have quit or are taking long breaks.

    Right now, fresh off of a content update, there's 500 people. Now this evening it might go even higher but I doubt it cracks 1,000 players even. My point stands that there's basically zero chance of ever getting anywhere near that level of production of GP, I don't care if I recruited hourly every day.
