Good god they fail so hard.

They do realize we have to plus up at maximum 3 weapons, but we have 9-10 pieces of gear and 5 accessories? We don't want effing packages you idiots!

And really? a 100K tp orb? You've got to be kidding me. Fail Gameforge is fail... as usual.

Borella, you still missing the best part: up to 30%.

AT charges and junky TP orb are not free items, they are included in price...

Sale just as expected - not worth a dime...

Yeah, everyone (well, everyone plussing) wants perfects. But the packaging is indeed ho-ho-horrible.

Whether this is good price or not, hard to say. Doesn't seem to be that great, but I have not run the math. Packaging is the main issue, though.

It was carefully planned months ahead.
May actually have to be thanking Frogster. For all we know it may have been planned years ago.

I really don't see why they'd expect people to buy these :s. I'd get some of the armor ones if they came by themselves, but in a package with a bunch of other things I don't need? Nope.avi.

I'm hoping since the bday is on Monday that there is another sale and this is just the trash before. Again I'm hoping but prepared for the fail...

Hate to say it but i agree. I cant justify spending that many diamonds on mostly slag. maybe if there were large puri packs. maybe if they were a hundred and fifty diamonds cheaper per pack. but honestly I wont be buying this weekend. Ill save my cash for double diamonds and better deals

It's a definite waste of diamonds. On the other hand only the 799 diamond pack is for sale on Palenque. This may change in a few hours but still a waste of diamonds. If they would just simply sell the +16 perfect jewels in their own individual packs, it would be so much better

omg Im so sick of these packages. I can deal with the charges and puris uping the price but a talent orb, seriously?

ugggh might get a 16 pack anyway just because regular 16 jewels hate me so hard. But those 6 and 12s are such ripoffs with those other things in them =/

Hello :)

Let me answer in translation the answer of Laghmara from German forum. We have there a lot of feedback too, including especially the suggestion of other amount of jewels in the offer. We have decided not to change the actual promotion, because of the different time zones. You know, there are hours between Australia and Europe, and between America too. That means: as the question appeared, the promotion was in full progress for at least one of our communities.
However we are glad to have this feedback, so we could forward it for further promotions, to have more peoples get happy with something they want.

I must admit, I don't see the logic to this one at all. *Shrug*

{Pre-Post Edit: I had a whole couple paragraphs here about why I won't be buying any of these packs, but there's no point. Just allow me to say I'm not very pleased with the offering, and if GF wants my money, they'll need to start offering sales on these types of items in a more customer friendly format, rather than in huge expensive packages that have many items in them I neither want, nor need. Till then, I'll continue to enjoy the game to the best of my ability, and save my money for other sales that I feel are more appealing to both my playstyle and my pocketbook.} :-)

One thing you guys should do : STOP THE PACKAGES!!! we do not want them, we don't care about them and you make them all too expensive no matter what crap you put in them. Really 100K TP orbs? really?? come on make it 1M orb and it would still be worthless.

Just try to give us items we want, need and hope for and not in packages!!!! Make items 50% off regular price and then you have a sale. No buy 2 get one free deal. Come on guys work with us here and stop being cheap to the player base, tyvm.

Have a great weekend and don't spend all your money cause these packages will not sell.

My suggestion would be to offer individual sales for each piece of the package as well as the package. The cost of the package could be worth 5 of the 6 items (so one item is technically free). More money would be spent overall and players would only have to gripe about the cost of the jewels.

And in regards to the TP orbs, most people who would be willing to buy the packages would be end-gamers, so it's safe to say that a 100k tp orb doesn't increase any of the skills. It would be better to offer 5 x 1 million tp orbs instead since that amount would actually increase the level of a skill.

We have been complaining about these expensive packages for a long time. Honestly it feels like the message is not getting through to the right people. I know that we have a place to go to for support. But we need place to go to provide feedback directly to the company. Although it is nice to have our peers add to the discussion, Good Ideas often get shuffled and lost under really stupid arguments or ignored because of something that needs more urgent attention. Is there an email address or place that we can use instead of the forum?
