Originally, I understood why upkeep was implemented. At this point though, do we really need it?

Since Strategus is back, why can't we have that for the super-serious playing and have plain old CRPG for fun?

It seems that every patch lately has reduced the fun factor a bit. I don't give a shit if I have to fight 100 plated chargers with fully armored riders carrying steel shields. I don't care if someone has 10,000 heirlooms. I'm still going to use the same gear I've always used.

Can't we just get back to what made this game fun in the first place? Buying new shit and hitting people with swords?

I've never played a server where people split up as much or as often as on EU1.  No wonder range is having a field day.

Agreed with above!

At least reduce upkeep alot. If anything it should be less than what it used to be, not more. I don't care if stuff has a lower chance of breaking. It's still bloody expensive.

I'll vouch for bob, he is damn good.
Also, I have declared myself #1 NA hybrid thrower
Formerly known as Marathon.
As an NA admin, I am the most laid back and concerned with the ~fun of the game~ above all other factors. I've also been super inactive since Summer 2012. University takes most of my time, but I still find some time to play when i can.

And yet I fought you a shitload of times in duel, I'm one of those dudes you really hated for going into your blindspot and slaughtering you.

This thread is not about ePeen.

Seriously, shut up about this stuff and bring it to the General Talk where it usually belongs... yeesh...
I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.

Bah upkeep is bs and plate armor does not provide enough bonus for its cost.


Happy, Mr.Spy.

Bitch please, I've got my humongous ego and epeen to uphold.

Also I'm sure you know my name Bob, unless I fought you under a different name which I probably did but I swear I dueled both you and Kalam a fuckload back in the days I actually played ingame as Patricia, Kalam hated me for my mind powers and you hated me for getting in your blind spot.
