I LOVE THIS!

more money to MA = better loots :D.
 
:) More loot is always welcome :D

n1 @ MA
 
Seems like a great thing. More users = more depositors whether they are small or large.
 
sounds like a good idea but i cant help thinking about hacking and stuff,i mean its easy to put a keylogger on an inet cafe PC and log someones login info.they all better get gold cards.

It also makes it more difficult to track "more than one account" at players, doesn't it?

Oh well, can't get it all ;)
 
that too.i dont wana sound negative but its really really not a good idea what they are doing.
 
im just being realistic
 
Sounds good but!!!

This sounds good!:wtg:
More users better for all! :D
But as some of the above posters said,whatabout security? :rolleyes:
Hope they can manage to handle that?:scratch2:
Will be intresting to see what this will bring to us!:yay:

HAHAH yeah, I'm afraid that!

I HOPE this does mean that loot-pool will be increased ... but if it doesn't that mean - same loot-pool to be shared by even more people...


(now _I_ sound a little negative ;) )
 
ok but... where is the vu????????????????
 
VU? We don't need any VUs.... except we get useful pets (what is likely to never happen, lol :)).
 
two weeks™
 
I see many things happening with this.

Fresh blood that we so desperately need to keep this ecconomy afloat.

New Scammers who now have direct access to people WITH thier gold cards on them in these cafes.

And old blood in this game with easier to handle multiaccounts.

Honestly I Like the idea, granted if each computer that had an eu was locked in a room of its own.:laugh:
 
This is a nice step from MA. Smartlaunch is just a great application for an internet cafe to use.

I know the application Smartlaunch since i worked in an internet cafe myself where they used smartlaunch.

And people that are concerned about keyloggers and such.

No need to if smartlaunch is active since it is impossible to install anything as a user. As a user you never get to see the windows desktop but only a customized interface.

Which means unless the owner has evil intentions there will be no keylogger on the computers ;)
 
I was wondering if MindArk would ever approach Valve to get EU included into Steam. Imagine how many players would be added to the world just because of that...

Dj clean might be right with smarlaunch, never tried it with that, however, ive been visiting some internet cafe's with steam, and its easy to get to the desktop and launch anything else on that pc (not much, usually, but you might just be able to keept the costs down). anyhow, i'd have to try sometime
 
nice one !! and very refreshing and maybe at last we will see some new faces.
tho the only bad part about having more ppl that sweat price will be droping fast cose of the more sweaters.
but hey lets hope for the best :) :yay: :yay: :yay:

Nice Going MA !! :woot: :woot:

Well hopefully this lets MA do better and we get a better game because of it. I don't want to think about loot anymore... if these new people give MA the required density to think about working new features then its all good by me.
 
doubt the prize of sweat will drop, like, you are not going to pay to play the game and then go sweating?. I think lots of depositors will join, like, if you are going to pay to use the computer, you will probably be happy to pay for hunting.... i reckon we will see lots of new depositors..... loot prizes will drop.... sweat prizes will go up (more ppl using ME and less sweat going around from people playing at home)
