  • (Quote) NA is the only region that offers a manual costume change service (via support tickets), so yeah -- this might be an influencing factor on what happens in our region.
  • (Quote) I don't think this change will have any impact on Elite, as vanguard rep/gold/etc. were never doubled by Elite (although some people have requested it from time to time).
  • Related to the OP, if you have any Federation Bills left in your item claim from a few years back, it would be a good idea to claim them before maintenance. Tikat is going away and they say they're converting any remaining in inventory, but I highl…
  • (Quote) But they will also, eventually, ease the earlier steps as well. (They already started doing this in K-TERA by increasing the supply of gold, etc.) That way people catching up won't have a progressively taller ladder to climb. All they've…
  • (Quote) Even with the grinding now, there's an eventual easing/reset of the process that makes it possible to catch up, and that's essential to all vertical progression MMOs. This is why I can't understand how BHS thought it was a good idea to dev…
  • (Quote) It's less about project management and more about assigning of resources, which is decided by top management. You can clearly see their strategy last year was to focus on diversifying the PC portfolio and lay the way for consoles. Conside…
  • (Quote) FWIW, it was no different -- some events were advertised, some events were impromptu. EME's various GMs/CMs been doing impromptu events since the launch of the game. There's also been lots of forum threads about it both ways; some people …
  • (Quote) They were never really ahead by much. For the longest while, the cycle was K-TERA -> J-TERA -> NA/EU. Then BHS reorganized things and they batched J-TERA along with NA and EU near the same time. Right now, they all generally releas…
  • If they offered this sort of scroll, I don't think they would allow the cosmetics to be tradeable, since the market for seasonal cosmetics is based on supply being constrained. If anyone can unbind their seasonal cosmetics at any time, it reduces t…
  • (Quote) Oh then if you meant will characters after the beta be wiped out before the official release, we don't know yet. For the Technical Test that's going on now in EU, it will probably be wiped out. But there will be a beta test sometime later…
  • (Quote) Well, it's not really a question of approval, it's a question of programming. There's no actual way to do this. If you're suggesting that, as a sort of one-day amnesty, everyone would be allowed to send in support tickets to request any r…
  • I am guessing that the servers might be PvP65 the way MT and FF are now, but I don't think they announced anything yet about that. Everyone will be creating new characters on console -- you can't carry anything at all over from the PC.
  • (Quote) It's not something they can just "switch off" for a day anyway, and the amount of grief doing a limited-time event would cause would way exceed any benefit. If they were going to ask BHS to program anything related to this, it'd …
  • (Quote) ...it's so that you need 4 of the same outfit for your alts. If that weren't the case, they'd be more expensive (and/or they'd charge you to move them from one alt to another, as with BnS). As someone with lots of alts I'm not saying that…
