IMPORTANT: No More Reset Bonuses

Discussion in 'Past Announcements' started by admin, May 31, 2012.

  1. But not giving people the opportunity to get the items also makes things unfair....
     
  2. Because of the devs, I have lost tens of billions. Thanks a lot.
     
  3. They will be given out. As super rare items in ebs.
     
  4. @sauraman devs just said in page 38 they won't be available in ebs 
     
  5. That's why I suggested killing reset bonuses in 2 weeks or so. One last chance to get a few
     
  6. If KaW admin could be farmed, I and thousands of others would have .
     
  7. I just received 5050 nobs *faints* (((_ _)))
     
  8. Thank you for at least reverting the whole ability to get reset items through epics.
     
  9. Damn, 500b to you.
     
  10. This makes no sense...you're taking away the ability to get reset items altogether, even as eb drops?

    Here's how I see it...resetters fall into 3 classes:

    1. Those that reset when resetting was really tough. I'm talking about those that reset before pws or T4. These people worked hard for the advantages resetting provided and have every right to protect their hard work.

    2. Those that reset honestly, but in the pw/eb era. Resetting at this point was pretty easy, a mere formality that took a few weeks to reset 4x rather than months and months. Sure they put some work into doing the resets, but nowhere near those in category 1. People that started playing kaw before pws and didn't reset because of the effort involved were at a disadvantage to those ppl that reset when resetting was easy.

    3. Those that reset quickly through volley transfers. These people have absolutely nothing to complain about. They reset the easiest way possible by gaming the system.

    As far as I'm concerned, the only ones that have a right to complain about losing out on their hard work are those in the first category. The others have enjoyed significant advantages of resetting options once the requisite gold was easy to acquire. And I suspect 99% of those complaining belong to classes 2 and 3.

    Effectively, by removing any access to the perm items, the devs are rewarding mostly those that did it easy, and punishing the rest of us. It sickens me to see players screaming about protecting their reset bonuses when they were easily or ill-gotten.

    The devs should have done something about the ease of resets over a year ago. Instead, they let sleeping dogs lie and now there are thousands screaming about protecting the advantage they got easy while demanding it be denied to everyone else.

    Really, there are two options:

    1. Don't change anything. Let people continue to reset easy or cheat.

    2. Level the playing field somehow, so that everyone has access to these items and bonuses in a fair way. I think what the devs proposed initally was inelegant and ineffective, but at least it embraced this option.

    Rewarding the whiners for their whining seems like the worst option. Yet that's what they're doing.
     
  11. So by that logic, you're one of the people who would think that everybody should have access to 120 clan member slots since Foxes and iG have them?
     
  12. They took my ally slots

    They promised ally slots and perm items for resets and now they have taken them away.

    I feel robbed 
     
  13. You keep perm. And I believe they're still thinking on reset slots. Either you guys don't have to buy them (and everybody else does), or preferably (IMO) you guys get extra.
     
  14. How about you can only get them from highland resets to make them still available but really hard to get
     
  15. At least regarding equip, that's not a bad idea currently. However, the people who could abuse that are the ones who spend massive amounts on nobs.

    So I'm thinking pass.
     
  16. So guefugelah, you think that resetting once achieving HLBC stats is easy (regardless of what "era")?
     
  17. This game isn't actually fun anyway and now the devs are trashing the history of the it. The game rolls on because of the players love for one another despite the devs mishandling something that could be a good game. It really is pathetic. Ebs suck and devs are shortsighted and foolish.
     
  18. Not that this bears directly on the current discussion, but yes, I think IG and Foxes have had a significant advantage over all other clans for a long time. They've reaped the rewards of a long bygone era over and over again. I have no problem with expanded the clan membership max to 120 members to all.
     
  19. No, but that's neither here nor there. Reset bonuses are typically for lc (no one goes to hc for the double bonus, nor do you have to be bc to collect the bonus).

    The point is that lc in the T2 or T3 era was an significant accomplishment. With the advent of T4 (with huge osfs) and T4, players could make far more than the 7-8m a hit they could before. That made lc a far less significant accomplishment. Players that started in the pw era had far easier resets than those who reset before that era.

    Where are my rewards for working hard to lc way back when? I worked harder than pw era players to lc. Where's my bonus? I want items just for starting earlier! Where's my long time player bonus?

    Geez guys get a grip. Stop screaming about your easy reset bonuses and how it's unfair that the devs are trying to level the field. You don't have the right to get something that others don't.
     
  20. Thanks developers :-D

    Thanks for nobility, gold, and mainly for not distributing hard earned reset items in epic battles. 

    For those who think it is unfair. In early 2011 referral code feature was removed, but achievement is still there, and so does all star war badges, and others like beta testing.
