Re: Will monthly ********s be capped at the servers monthly costs?

I just banned the word ********. GG.

This had me confused for so long until I came upon your post.

It's Micro transactions, can call it whatever the **** you like really, but in the end that's what it is.

I don't know who you are, but you seem very bitter.

Sorry to hear that, bro. Allow me to "eat a burger" on your behalf.

Re: Will monthly ********s be capped at the servers monthly costs?

Or will you be turning a profit?
will you declare it to HMRC if it does indeed turn a profit?
will you split it among the team?
who is "you" is also another good question.

Can you not remove the "shop" and just have a ********s target for Quarterly years. once said quota is full;, you may take more ********s but only to redistribute that money back to those that originally donated.

For example if Adam pays the whole year for you in Janruary.
when Ben pays half a year in february you give Adam back half his money.
If Charlie pays a third of a year in march, you give back Adam and Ben back that money as the yeat is already paid.

essentially a balancing system to ensure no profit is taken?
Are you for profit?


lol dude

Re: Will monthly ********s be capped at the servers monthly costs?

I hate GS's personally, but knowing Sam as well as I do, I personally don't think he see's this as a way to earn loads of ££'s.
I was against having one on the AceM2 server personally, and luckily so was the rest of the team. A massive thanks to them who funded the costs and also put their spare time and effort into it for no return.

They may well end up turning a profit, the server team may end up walking away with £20 a month each or even more, but they have put a lot of time and effort into the server so I see no problem there. I just hope that there i nothing game changing on the GS as it will put me off straight away.

Re: Will monthly ********s be capped at the servers monthly costs?

I'd love to have a pet or just buffs that auto loot (When not in a party of course lol)

Or stuff that makes you stand out without looking retarded. Example I wouldn't buy hair cuts cause there stupid, or wings cause there meant to be specific for Heaven/Mir armours. But a glow for your weapon would be cool.

Or a buff to REDUCE wear and tear on your items (NOT remove dura drop completely) and only one time use per item.

Increased potion drops (When solo)...Gold drops...

Just naming typical game shop stuff I see in other games without resorting to exp and stat buffs lol

It was never intended to be a 'server'

As much as people may not like it, it was always doomed.

It was originally a test server to fix it up fit a real release...but then they went and just claimed that to be a server instead.

That's why I never played for very long lol, it was always going to end, and it was always a test server. No amount of 'LIVE' and complaining was going to change that

4 months longer than I expected.

It was originally a test server, the whole Envir was just quickly thrown together. We tried to save it and try balance things, but unfortunately a lot of damage had already been done.
Would have lasted longer if we wiped it earlier on and started from scratch... Which is what happened in the end and has now progressed into MirChronicles. A lot of time and effort has gone into this, so I'm hoping, like the rest of you that it's a success.

What Blank said. Donators get nowt that changes game for their money. or its pay to win.
If exp pots are the only money maker dont put them in game til most ppl are already 40+.
That way no one can race ahead (except biked) and new players can use them

Re: Will monthly ********s be capped at the servers monthly costs?

well. I would like to ask you a small question sir when Acem2 almost went down I remember you said that is going to be a v2 or something like that. So who reached 40 will remain the same with new items in the new server. So what happened :D:D

There was never any mention of players who reached 40 would remain the same on ace v2, there was however mention of a care package, which the majority of the community condemned in preference of a fresh start for everyone.

As long as there's no P2W **** in the GS, let them make profit. They've invested time in this so if it does turn a profit, good? More motivation for them to continue putting time.

This would be highly illegal and would cut the potential User count by 70%.


So No, bad idea.
