    Why do we voice our opinions? Why do we make suggestions?

    It all falls on deaf ears. This is the way I see things now-a-days........

    US: Y'all should tweak drop rate....there's a bug in such such map.....a new color mouse pointer would be helpful.....my quest disappeared, can y'all (devs) fix this please...... etc...

    DSO: We hear you, the players, so we decided to make-over Kingshill and implement a new cosmetic system to customize your toon. Furthermore, we'll rework the whole new beginners map so the experience will be more fun.

    Why can't DSO listen to what we are stressing here? Are they that ignorant that they can't see their noses spite their face? Are they THAT blind to the truth?

    It';s very easy logic/common sense....if they are "worried" about making money with this game, make the players happy and the money will come. Maybe it's me....I dunno.

    Now, the million dollar question......Do they even care anymore?

    You are basing this on a very small sample pool. Forums by nature tend to bring out the most vocal people and do not necessarily predict the wants of the masses.

    You say that they don't listen, and maybe there is some truth to that. I started this game in late March because the other game I was playing was far worse for bugs and unfair advantages than DSO.

    In the first few months of playing this game (up through the last Dragan event) the game crashed regularly and that eventually got fixed. There have been other bugs that got fixed since that time. Were there any threads dedicated to thanking them for fixing them?

    It's easy for us to say that they should test each thing before releasing it so they can avoid bugs, (I say that also) but I don't work for them and I am not a programmer so I don't know what they do to test or try to fix before a release. The number of people who use the test server is relatively small in comparison to the number of people who play the game.

    Now since my time here (granted it's short) the biggest complaints are:

    1. Paying is unfair
    2. PVP is unfair
    3. Drops
    4. Bugs

    Just because these complaints get mentioned the most here on the forum doesn't mean that they are the most heard directly by BP.

    It also doesn't mean that there is an easy solution to fix these issues that would eliminate the complaints.

    These are also very common complaints on other games, it's certainly not limited to DSO. Plus, those who are doing the most complaining are still playing, so they must not have found a better solution to their gaming desires.

    You also need to consider who is making the most vocal complaints. This tends to be the people who have been playing since the beginning. Maybe they do deserve a little more credit for putting up with all the crap to build the game, but they are also outnumbered by the new players who come in daily. Obviously BP has to consider keeping the largest number of people happy. That's just good business.

    Yeah, I'm sorry to say this but you are wrong on so many levels.

    First I, personally, have made a "thank you and appreciation" thread. Does anyone remember that?

    Secondly, beings there isn't much for me to do in the game without gettin so bored that I wanna commit suicide I have a high standards of helping the new guys/gals. The complaints among them are also great. I like this game. I use to enjoy it thoroughly. Would play for hours and hours at a time and actually spend money on it.

    Thirdly, most of us that post on here are "old schoolers" of the game. We know how it SHOULD be and the way it WAS. In saying that, the select few of us know, for a fact, that it was not this bad 2 years ago. And I say this loosely, we else is gonna speak up for the new children of the game besides the elders? (don't read to much in the way I phrased that. You get the idea)

    And finally, I also would like to point out, for example, the famous position bug. So easy to fix and took soooooo freakin long to fix. Why? Simple. Cause players would use anders to respawn or buy the premium thinking they'll save anders. Cha Ching for BP.

    You say you played games worse than this? Please list so I can avoid those disasters :rolleyes:

    For someone who knows what hes taking about, trail knows who I am. Let's just say, not all dev's are bad, just the ones who work for that paycheck. Some of US, worked because we liked to work. Yes, they have done some things, but lets look at R137. We have a crap event in our hands, tons of bugs and tons of things that needs to be fixed, but no, the anamation on how we attack is way more important. I'm sure NO ONE brought that up as an issue. Hence, BP does not listen, but what irriates me is these 2 little ignorant kids,our CMS, feeding us EDIT. Reason I bring up the CM's is because I suppose thats our information like from us, to dev plans. Come to Agathon and I'll make sure your next twitch show(on only you playing the game) will end in defeat.

    No Multi. I reread my question and didn't mean for it to come across like that. My bad bro. I just didn't think I came across like the way you stated it.

    With regards to the position bug -- it still isn't fixed (it's not as bad as it was, and if you have good ping times to your server, you might not see it at all). I generally experience rather long ping times, and still see the position bug regularly. I'm mostly playing another game now, this one is no fun for me.

    I agree. The position bug is still around albeit not being as frequent as it was. However, it's still cumbersome enough that if enough monsters my level or higher swarm around me, this issue plus the mouse pointer issue combo is enough to cause me to die if I am still waiting on cooldown for my spells and the odd lag prevents me from using pots.

    Wow. I reckon I got a pretty good internet thingy. Sorry to hear y'all are still suffering from this annoying BigPoint catastrophy.

    I guess I gotta retract my statement about them fixing it than. Why does this NOT surprise me o_O

    That may just be normal lag as opposed to the position bug. If i remember correctly, someone pointed out what the position bug looks like in the log file. It would be worth checking if that same error code shows up in these high ping cases or if it is just crappy internet.

    I think this is the post of the log file you are referring to.

    That is it indeed. Now all we need is someone who is still experiencing the bug to attempt to replicate it and then go look at their log file.

    I just checked my current log file, and I had 45 instances of the error code referenced.

    I must have missed that particular thread, but it is nice to know that some do recognize the efforts of BP when they do something right.

    I'd say that our community does a good job of complimenting the DSO Team when they do something right, but that's about as frequent as a Predator bow drop in the game.

    I want tyo say..right there bro..how easy it is for the other reader to take what you said, and misunderstand it..i am still sad i even entertained some arguing texts from players that seem to think they are god in a game.. that is a total joke to me..lol you have no real life..i have responded brutal..Kinda how i would be in person if those comments were made. i would attack without arguing. however, this site thinks im some grumpy EDIT,, not the case, I had my first year and have had my time with arguing texters , but honestly. i hate i even said anything back to that waste of time, it only made site think differently of me. or that i look like that...bad on my part..i will ignore all that waste of time in future.!! i dont like that, if it is all possible , sorry to the mature players, but you little spoon fed 10 year olds with mommy buying you gazillion ander.... hahaha go away..

    The only real thing to do...is to stop playing, because the dev team will never change their position or mind about all types of unfairness.
    The Dragan 2 event made me (better yet, forced me) to look for any other type of F2P games out there....and i found one (strategy type).

    I haven't played DSO for a week now and if the X-mas event turns-out to be a disaster like Dragan 2, then probably i won't even login to this game.
    My new change is paying-out, it's not expensive, nor is it P2W or P2P and any F2P has a very good chance to defeat a P2P.
    Have been playing it for a week and having a lot of fun.

    I have complaint a lot, like many or some of you....and have you ever seen BP respond to those complains??? NO, why....
    ....because their don't care, because it's simple....If i leave, some newcomer will take my place and the numbers of players will always be balanced, no decrease nor increase.

    I still will come to the forum to read about what you guys think/complain/ideas/etc....but playing this game, no thanks!!!

    Good luck in farming (sorry, I meant buying) for all the stuff.:D:p:D
