Title: Give 100k gold to all the accounts that registered in the last 20 days.
Post by: Panos_ on July 24, 2014, 03:37:00 pm
Everyday I see new players complaining about upkeep and I kinda feel for them. Please almighty chadz, bless them with a 1 time gift of 100k gold.


chadz, lover of my soul, let me to Thy bosom fly,
While the nearer waters roll, while the tempest still is high.
Hide me, O my Savior, hide, till the storm of life is past;
Safe into the haven guide; O receive my soul at last.

Other refuge have I none, hangs my helpless soul on Thee;
Leave, ah! leave me not alone, still support and comfort me.
All my trust on Thee is stayed, all my help from Thee I bring;
Cover my defenseless head with the shadow of Thy wing.

Wilt Thou not regard my call? Wilt Thou not accept my prayer?
Lo! I sink, I faint, I fall - Lo! on Thee I cast my care;
Reach me out Thy gracious hand! While I of Thy strength receive,
Hoping against hope I stand, dying, and behold, I live.

Thou, O chadz, art all I want, more than all in Thee I find;
Raise the fallen, cheer the faint, heal the sick, and lead the blind.
Just and holy is Thy Name, I am all unrighteousness;
False and full of sin I am; Thou art full of truth and grace.

Plenteous grace with Thee is found, grace to cover all my sin;
Let the healing streams abound; make and keep me pure within.
Thou of life the fountain art, freely let me take of Thee;
Spring Thou up within my heart; rise to all eternity.

it`s ok Teeth, you`ll still be able to kill them and maintain your high K/D, just give them a chance to fight back, thats what I`m asking for.

100K is high but something like 20-30k would be nice.

(but the STF should definetely have more than 10k)

Post by: Panos_ on July 24, 2014, 04:03:15 pm
100k is just perfect

A good armour set = 40-50k to buy
A good weapon = 10-15 to buy
and the rest to upkeep them until they start selling loompoints.

I'd rather give them some untradable equipment, or make them automatically join a newbie clan with stuff in the armoury. 100k for any new account seems exploitable

The funny part is, they'd still get destroyed even by giving them level 33 and 10 loompoints considering they are lucky to block 2 hits in a row.

10 loom points is only enough for 3 +3s.  If they're smart they go body, gloves, weapon.  But that's really only effective for 2her or pole arm.  Any other build and they'd be outclassed.

I already see a bunch of noobs running around in plate.. they don't know how to block so you just spam-roll them. Must be losing a ton of money on false hope :(

That's bullshit tho. You dont need equip on lvl 1, neither on lvl 15. On lvl 15 you dont buy equip for 40k, you buy equip for max 10k and until you reach lvl 15 you got that gold. Once you need 40k for your equip you should be over lvl 20 and then you should have about 80k and more. So money never has been a problem as you first got to skip low lvl anyway where you cannot use good gear.

I wasn't being ironic in the slightest. If it was up to me everybody would get a freely respeccable level 35 character and looms would be removed from the game. 100k is nice and all, but as soon as a newbie realizes how much obtaining level 33+ or a full loomed set is gonna cost him in time expenditure, during all of which he will be at a noticable disadvantage, he might just as well quit.

The funny part is, they'd still get destroyed even by giving them level 33 and 10 loompoints considering they are lucky to block 2 hits in a row.
Thank god for that, skill is significantly more decisive than grind. Still, no need for them to behind in skill and about 2000 hours behind in grind.

Of course those 100k, if you ever would do this, shouldn't be used for trades. Only for upkeep and shop buying.

I just started playing a week ago and I find the disadvantages I am facing practically impossible to overcome.  I've been able to put together a midline kit (Scale Mail, Huscarl Shield, Norse War Sword) but at this point the maintenance costs are making it hard to turn a profit and eventually acquire better gear.  I'm not sure how folks are able to afford to buy their expensive equipment let alone maintain it.

They sell looms, banner stack to get good multipliers, go naked every once in a while.

Seems like new players like myself should keep their loom points since we have none.  How does banner stacking work?

Join a good clan with skilled players. It all depends on activity, if you play over years as everyone else did, you will have no problems with gold.

I remember first starting, convinced I would kick ass once I got the heavy gear.  Of course I didn't, and just lost all my money.  But valour and banner stacking help, but if you're new you gotta rely on luck.  Someday you'll have 20 X5 games in a row, and you'll find yourself rich.

But the fact is is that you gotta play light gear quite often.  I go Transitional Heraldic when I'm rich, heraldic mail when I'm doing ok, then plain mail when I'm broke.  This is a good thing for me, cuz when I wear my transitional too much I start crutching.  Then I put on my mail and learn to block again.

(banner stacking is when you are in a clan and everyone gets put on the same team.  Usually good players who know how to work together to win).

If you join a clan that has a custom banner (most clans in other words), you can all play on one server at the same time, and the game will automatically put you all on the same team (after the first round of joining). This way, you and all of (or at least most of) your entire clan will be on the same team, and it's a lot easier to communicate and thus use teamwork when you all have teamspeak and microphones, since typing is slower than talking. This makes your team 16gud237u mlg pro russia pakistan 1080 noscope headshot because teamwork.

if you put up a trade for 100k and send me a link i will accept it.

I don't like this new "helpful" Panos, there are way too few curses in his posts. Bring back the old gay-bashing, arab-hating, CAPS-abusing Panos! Also, give him a free pass for the weekends so he can run around EU1 finding new ways to simultaneously insult as many people as possible. Honestly, that will attract more newbs (and keep them coming back) than any one time gifts you can come up with.

I've trained myself to not read Panos.

But seriously, clans are always looking for noobs.  You will have access to their armoury, and most guys will train you or at least give you hints.  The sad part is that you have to be in their Teamspeak, which means you gotta listen to their bullshit about Jean Luc Picard vs James Kirk.  Unless you join the 13 Knights.  No geek talk allowed, and an awesome armoury.  Might be pressured to play Strat.  Even though, in hind sight, it's probably the least rewarding game ever.

Loyalty/Dedication/No-lifer bonus:

20k gold bonus recevied at sunday midnight at week 1,2,4,8,16,32,64,<-^2,<-^2

So you get a starter bonus for first sunday 20k, second sunday 20k(total 40k), fourth sunday 20k(60k), eighth sunday 20(80k), sixteenth sunday 20k (100k)... etc.

This could be easily implemented retroactively making a player that started 128+ sundays(2½ years ago) ago receive=160k
Or even easier... just implement and let it start ticking right away everyone effectively starting receiving 20 k first sunday after implementation.

Main benefit= None of this: "lol 100k lets buy tincan!"-> Then rivers of tears about upkeep just a few days later...
Main drawback=It gives gold to old players as well.

This is what I imagine a new player doing and thinking:

Look, I have 100k gold, it must be very easy to obtain. Let's see what I can buy. Oh, a plated charger for 60k! Bought. Plate armour, 31k, heavy helmet, 9k. Where did my gold go? Oh well, I am sure it will be easy to get more...

Obviously not all new players are going to be like that, but there will be a fair few who will do that, be screwed, and it will only make more fuss for people to have to clean up...

10 loom points is only enough for 3 +3s.  If they're smart they go body, gloves, weapon.  But that's really only effective for 2her or pole arm.  Any other build and they'd be outclassed.

Maybe, it depends on player. I use a +3 weapon on all characters but my archer, but while I have several +3 armor sets I seldom use it, and I, dear peasant, am never outCLASSED by anyone. Social position jokes aside, armor only helps when you plan on getting hit, real men defend themselves with their axe. If I started today and you gave me 3 +3's.... with current balance I would probable take +3 pony, +3 LAS and +3 kite shield, cheap enough gear to never worry about upkeep, shield gives 360 protection, and you can 1hit anything on the field, who dafuq needs armor.
