Just ask for your sub money back like i did and be done with it
I don't understand 3 things:
1)Why Funcom don't make such system year or two ago, when AoC have more veteran players and they don't leave for other projects?
2)Why developers don't announce anything before **** storm like we see in last days?
3)Why developers ignore fact what some people play (and pay) since release and don't give anything special for them with new sub system?
I will reserve final judgement for when the full details are finally released, but so far, that doesn't sound like enough to warrant the huge price increases across the board, along with the removal of many items, and the no account wide options.
Not everything removed from the store has been added to the gilding vendors.
In regards to the raid finder, you appear to have changed what raids will be available, without telling us which they will be. Before we were told it would be T3, T3.5, T4, and 'T6 easy mode'. Now it is '9 raid instances', which sounds sort of like: T2 (W1, W2, W3), T3 (Lower + Upper), T3.5, T4 (Lower + Upper), 'T6 Easy mode'. The 1 per week still doesn't sound good.
I would also like to know what the justification for increasing the prices of the "Hoards of the xxxx" is. They certainly aren't better items.
As for a lot of the other price increases being because there are *better* items, how about you add the old items back at the old prices and see if people thing better is worth more?
What will happen to offline levels? It sounds like you are dropping that system.
No word about the monthly stipend of Bonus points either, so I guess that means they are removed too.
It starts from zero the moment the new system goes live. If you are subbed for 1 year past the date it goes live, you get all rewards tiers up to the 360 day tier. That is how it works for TSW, and I'm totally ok with that mechanic.
Anything like monthly bonus points still come one month at a time.

BLOOD DAWN-AQUILONIA SERVER FOR EVAH !!
hey
i would like to say few things by myself of this what i see
at first i was also discouraged by new changes, things like where is all that stuff it used to be in store there now? why while i did buy about 6-7 of those advancemnt rings there is new one much powerfull? also i think there is tendency in this thread made up by g3mr s1ckos or other ments who go on with their regular nerdrage against stuff they dont understand, i really dont appreaciate them in game or here or elsewhere
^^ nobody force you to buy anything, while i looked at new store i was sure the premium and f2p model will change and we will see loads of stuff and things given away with it and beign allowed for - and thats the truth
so while you can play this super fun game with spending little cash to have vast content at your hands reach the shop is not obligatory addition, remember that its just additional way to buy few things and as you can see now its really a power progression shoertcut for those who simply doesnt have time or cant do it otherway or want to play with their money, yes game is better than casino ;D
prices are bit expensive indeed, i leave in PL and i cant even get for a minimum of FC points foir hour of my work here, and life costs too also
so imo some exit to overcome problems would be to raise lets say minimal FC points pack to 1k, that would be just fine - tho not sure if its possible since FC points are tied up to other games too and could spoil economy there
so please cut the prices or find other solution (remember thats supose to be microtransactions, not that i have to spend half of my days shift value of my work to buy with potions to some of my characters - and i have about 20 lvl 80toons)
overally im pretty ok with rest of changes, ofc new bag is meh (khe khe, is it 3rd time its happening - i mean i bought it for first time it was the biggest one, i bought the account wide for another one that came out and was maximum and now this ...)

Please tell me why me or any veteran of this game would sub for this.
* All our classes are level 80 and full on any useful AA
* Any char I create has instant free teleport from account wide achievement points. We also have swift mounts on all chars so we can get anywhere in 2 minutes
* I got hundreds of unspend tokens of all sorts on most of my chars. All loot in T6 drops plenty in direct items
* All factions on any char I ever wanted are maxed out
* Full AA...
* Unchained is still a stupid lottery with no guarantee of ever getting what you want. Apart from that the gear is largely irrelevant (and will be even more so after these recent additions to the shop)
* We have 12*lvl80 chars... Some even more. If we don't we don't care about the others
* Most of us rarely do quests anymore. We've done them all mostly more then once
* Nothing worthwile in game is bought with gold. 18 gold is the most expensive useful item in game

As a person who doesn't have enough free time on his hands for AoC (tho I wish I did) to mindlessly grind both pvp and pve to remain competitive, I like the new items available. I know my classes and my rotations I just don't have the MASSIVE amounts of time to invest to enjoy the game I pay for. so, thank you funcom.
you haters are just upset that the gap bewtween yourselves and others who don't have the time to invest as you do is closing....haters are the kind of player that needs a leg-up over the competition to remain competitive, if forced to play on even playfields I'm sure their pvp "prowess" wouldn't be as it is.....the current pvp system promotes 24/7 grinding as opposed to skill and FUN PLAY to acquire gear....pvp should be about the actual pvp fun and NOT an endless grind. NOW players can start out at a reasonable point in progression and be fully functional in no time, as it should be. I've been on both ends of the spectrum...massively OP vs weak opponents, and massively outmatched due to gear....NEITHER is fun. its the balanced matches where both sides collide on a line and brawl, one barely edging out the other are the games that are most fun, even draws like that are fun...I doubt any aoc pvper would dispute that.
as for pve I cant comment a whole lot cuz I really don't have the time to acquire all the gear needed to "qualify" for high end raids.....I would love to raid once a week if I had the adequate gear.
everyone just settle down.

Population has been decreasing over the past few years, anyone who wanted T4 gear goes and raids T4, and T4 gear is more than enough for T5 and T6 raiding. What reason have you given for anyone to raid by putting it's rewards in the item shop? You give the rewards away for money as a last ditch cash grab in the greediest move ever seen, or you and your entire team are absolutely clueless and think you're doing something positive, read this thread and you might get a clue that you're not.
Pretty much everything in your entire post is wrong direction. Remove power gear from item shop, but the very least you can do is remove the T4 and T5 gear from it.
Then stop promoting solo, such putting power gear in the item shop, I needed to play with other people to get raid gear before, now I can get it solo with money, so you are simply lying. You also don't spend money developing the game, couldn't even spare an animator from your real baby (TSW) to finish Slithering Chaos at any stage in the last 3 years.

I hope you have fun I really do,just remember to close the lights when you've done since soonish there wont be anyone to play with.
We endure vanafail fiasco because t6 came right after but enough is enough !! In my guild which is one of the oldest guilds that left, a nice amount of us have canceled our payments with subscription ending really soon while some even uninstalled the game,I believe its the same with other guilds aswell!
