Clothes & Armor Decay protest

my 2 pec decay :(

I have spotted several annoying thing about VU 9.0 but I still feel very strongly about 2 pec decay.

I will be sending this as my support case, once I get home (can't access the site from here). If you feel as strongly as I do , you should send a support case too; use some my text if you like :(

Dear Sir/Madame,

As someone who has played PE /EU for 4 years, I have lots of VU 'features' & enhancements along the way .
With every new VU , there are players who get upset by the changes where they are good or bad.
However, I have never experienced so much disappointment from my society members , friends & well established figures within the EU community as I have with regards to VU 9.0.

As a player who regularly deposits funds to enable me enjoy the gaming experience , I'm happy with concept of paying what I want to so (ingame).
However, I have major issue the recent introduction a the '2 pec decay' tax for switch clothes & armor.
EU has a wide range of armors available with protection to suit the various mobs, MA has given the players the tools & credited them with intelligence to make they own choices regarding armor.
But by implementing the decay for every armor /clothes change, you are treating a mature community like children playing an arcade game.
What is worst is that it done obviously without any feedback the core players who keep this game alive.
On top of this, the reasons given for the change insults our intelligence , to 'decrease lag ' & to make it more realistic ? .
The lag has nothing to players switching clothes & armor while standing around the towns, but more about upgrading the graphic/ & game play with have the supporting infrastructure.
It would be realistic if clothes & armour were only damaged when under attack , it is logical that the clothes underneath the armour would be damaged if there were armour damage or penatration.


I ask you to escalate this support case & all those relating to the issue of the '2 pec decay' ( not money but principle of how it has been implemented) .

I will not be depositing any more funds to my account , I will asking all my society members (I'm their Leader) , all my disciples & friends from several stronger societies to do same. until this issue is addressed. I will also not be changing my clothes or put my armor back on until I see that MA starts to listen to the community that make this game what it has become.
Many players are upset about this issue , as you will see from the various Community / Society forums.
I'm very willing to discuss the issue in depth if anyone from MA is interested with being as emotive as many of my ingame friends ( their support case maybe have already hit your inbox)

Will raise more support cases to prevent the details of this major issue from being clouded

Hi, i noticed a strange bug... each time I equip clothes or armor, it seems to decay a bit. I wonder where that stems from. Also, if I want to buy low tt clothes at auction, I cant tell the colors...

Yours truly,

about armored boots

ma is very wise company. "2 pecs" smart turn - angry players - then turn off damned decay. BUT boots will stay ;)

my friend on russian forum say so: "buy boots smaller Ur foot for 1-2 size. and U'll be happy at evenin' more then most." - add "2 pecs decay" then remove it - and armoured boots will stay :laugh:

what's armoured boots? that's half of my (U, all of us) shins, cuted by ma and reselling by ma to us again. i had some full sets of armour. they not full now.

great! we'll can pay 16% more decay now (not now, sorry. from VU 9.1 only). not faps only can spending more my money :yay: idea :wtg: why do not divide my arm-guards too? i'll can pay more :laugh:

heh. i was in ass. i'm deeper now.

imho
sorry for my english

Exactly. There is also another proverb - How to make a person happy? Make him unhappy and then restore all things.
 
Count me in!

Maybe MA will stop the decay on clothes, but it won't change the fact that everybody tried clothes when the VU was on, and they'll had already repaired their clothes to the max TT, so they would have get the biggest part of money anyway.

(Bad english, hope you'll understand).

Even if they remove this we have all seen a glimpse of their incredible greed. Nothing would really surprise me anymore when it comes to MA.. a lag-preventing extra ped everytime u buy ammo/bombs next huh?
 
Many people saying there has been a drastic decrease of loot to, however this was the case in the last big VU too and that was rebalanced later on (somewhat)..
But it can also be like this because obviously many hunters like my self simply ain't hunting and filling the lootpool anymore.

And thats why i hate Ma atm to get this standard answers while i put in my support case :

P.s A standard answer also will make me chip out, I am a well paying customer and also wanna be treated like that.

Again another fine example that those arrogant .... dont even read what ur writing to them.

This all so sucks.

By the way repair Bill on clothes for me is 1294,- Ped Thanks Ma :mad:


 
Another identical reply here :mad: It seems rude that they probably don't even read these support cases, but I hope it makes a difference anyway.

cheers for suppling pics in the earlier post..
 
Yea I got the same support case, just keep sending em in. If enough ppl show MA this is wrong they will back down.
 
Totally disgusted....

MA not making enough money? Have to squeeze just a little more?

OMG How can they be so stupid?

Im gonna 'donate' rather than 'deposit' The Russians can have my peds!
 
This fee will cost me around 10 ped per month if i'm not mistaken, not much, but it's 10 ped too much.
And any noob will be more or less affected in the same way if they make a couple of hunts per day. Now for someone just starting to play, 10 ped per month lost in this way is way too abusive.
 
Sell all ur clothes... and refuse to buy more.. show MA that we are serious .. once the tailoring profession is dead they will get their heads out of the sand and do somethin about it
 
I don't really care if it's 1 PEC or 20 PED/month.. it's the principle.. this is nothing but a BS excuse for stealing money from us, who already pay more than enough for this nowadays very limited amount of 'FUN' ..
 
My protest is not playing EU!

I think the same, it's a principle. I really think that decay on wearing is a stupid thing, I prefeer to wait for another engine or what they want, but not paying so... they did without asking to us if we agree this decision (as always).

Foot Guard? MA, someone invested 10000 $ for a full set of armour and now? you're saying that all sets are incomplete? You treath us as stupid idiots, really tnx of it.

MA will never have my moneys again, that's sure.

This is my way to protest, never EU again!

ps: selling a lot of stuff lolol (Angel M - maddox - skills - ALL)
 
the problem with sending support tickets every day is it will do nothing.

first, MA will probably set up an auto response system where it scans the support ticket for key words " 2 pec decay" and automatically sends a form letter reply. No person will ever see your support case.

And if MA DOES read the support cases -- then 'real' support cases suffer from the long response times.

If you are unhappy. Don't log in. It's pretty simple. But that is like telling a smoker who is unhappy with a tax increase on cigs to stop smoking. Addiction is addiction. You're going to keep loggin in. And Mindark knows that. You're hooked.

Prove me wrong.

What do you expect from strike in EU? Government change? Democratic elections? Salary raises? :)
I think after "rubberbanding VU" strikes somehow 'touched' MA:
- MA banned ppl,
- MA made statements, explanations,
- finally MA solved issues
Hard to tell how much 'strikes' influenced fixing process, but certainly MA was afraid of user actions.

Well, one can logg in and just chatt, and stayaway from items that decays.
 
But look, people log in and keep playing. And MA knows that.

I suspect what holds many people in the game is their character. A character that for many no longer exists and even those who managed to do an ok job recreating will not recognise most of their posessions and certainly don't want to be taxed to wear them.

Its a lot easier to "strike" when you have nothing to gain by logging in. :(

Which has more effect:

Yesteday 10,000 people logged in. About 50% of those engaged in no activity that resulted in decay.

or

Yesterday 100 people logged in. They played their normal type of game.
