Can we get some answers please?

Its been 2 weeks since the patch and we still have not gotten any answers regarding some of the changes that were made. Can we actually get some answers here please?

Honor Points - Is the 25k limit going to to be removed, or least raised significantly?

Siege War - Are the times going to be shifted so that one of the time options is the same as the original siege time used to be? (7:00pm pst). I saw Kalvan say this was being discussed, has any decision been made? How long will you be discussing it?


Can someone from GF please give us some answers?

The sudden unannounced change to the Honor Points was a huge slap in the face. I had worked hard to collect a large sum and to achieve a high server ranking. I read about the change before entering siege, so I have boycotted siege activities until there's an official response. Hopefully I can keep those points in the future. Since siege was a primary gameplay focus for me, this has really pushed me away from playing at this time. Losing nearly half a million honour points - without any warning - is very upsetting to say the least.

Both of these are being investigated but there is no definite answer on what will happen.

If anything does happen, it should appear in patch notes - all we can do until then is hope.

Is that supposed to be a humorless effort to deflect the fact that this game has lost all support by any individuals that are capable of actions??

Hey koargnon in the time it took you to find that image, post it and then reflect on it, you could of instead..not of searched for the GM logo while thinking it would be funny to do so, also you could of actually thought from our perspective what it's like to lose virtual items. All while having someone "above" you on these forums and like .00000005% rarity in game laugh at you for losing it.

The saddest thing, if any of you blue/green names for a second think the utter garbage your publishing company puts forth is funny, I really hope karma destroys you in some form.

Allow me to toss in my dos centavos here.

It usually takes several weeks after a content patch is applied to collect and forward errors (real and perceived) to our own QA so they can be evaluated and sent off to Runewaker. And then, of course, additional time for RW to make corrections and/or changes, then send them back to GF so those specific fixes can be tested. (Yes, they do get tested, contrary to Some Peoples' opinions.) So, there's no specific time line or ETA as to when the next patch will be issued.

Honor Points--I seem to recall that some time ago a similar cap was to be put in place (perhaps in Chapter IV, but I'm not certain). There were grumblings about it when players discovered it was there, and it was subsequently removed. As Kroagnon said, we (Mentors and CM Team members) have discussed this internally, along with our compatriots in the EU. I have heard nothing back, nor do I have any information as to when or if the cap will be altered or removed. And please don't ask me about "reimbursement". You do not want my opinion on that. :D

Siege War--Again, as both Kroagnon and I have said, this has been discussed internally and the CM Team's opinions have been forwarded upstairs.

Personally speaking, I would prefer that the Siege clock(s) be shifted so that the"main" Siege time of 10pm EST (7pm PST) be used. For the US servers, that seemed to be the best compromise time slot, considering the larger number of time zones that need to be covered for North America--as many as 8 time zones (including Nova Scotia and Alaska, but not Hawaii) in comparison to the 2 to 4 zones for the EU servers.

We've heard nothing back yet on when or if the Siege clock(s) might be shifted.

That's the best I can do for now.

Perhaps a new Item Shop product needs to be added. Let's call it "Sensa Huma".

Y'all are in desperate need of it.

Doctors can help with that. A little hand circumcision and you'll feel all better.

Oh, and Stickit is always funny, doubly so when forcefully poked with sharp stick.

Two things I wrelly don't understand.

Quoted from "Kalvan;606674"


Yes, they do get tested, contrary to Some Peoples' opinions.

How can you say things get tested(like patch6) when it takes only 1 tester to go to any Bethomia difficulty and see there is no mems drop on any bosses; not to mention that if they do test tactics on bosses they should have noticed it so many times.

Correct me if I'm wrong but GF does NOT know about all these changes RW do into game. When something new came out they know what RW forward to GF and they did not tell everything. GF post into forums so they know what we know. It takes long time to ask RW about things and to get the answers back.

Ironically it was an inside joke with someone else too, they picked it up already in game.

Proceed or whatever.

Is it true that you cannot siege back to back, due to the cool down?
If so, why is it that some guilds, I hear, are still able to siege back to back...
