Thread: Upcoming Changes to Membership, Offline Levels, & more

    Default

    I know things can get a bit lost in these types of threads and confused ...I was myself re: character slots
    So after asking about the free specialisation feat that we get as a member ....the answer as I understand it is: YES it's going to be part of the membership deal, starting at the lowest time period (ie 30days) ... what is changing is HOW you go about getting on the new character ...ie not having to go to the trainer to get it, but they haven't detailed the new method yet.
    And no change to the ones we currently have.

    Yep, sounds like you are caught up on the mechanics. No one loses any specs they currently have. After the revamp, the quest giving the spec disappears, and anyone with the 30 day membership loyalty reward is given a free spec on each character. These stack, so if you had the old freebie from the quest, you also get the new one.

    So currently, a f2p has 1.
    A member can get a 2nd.
    After the revamp, a member with 2 will now have 3.
    After the revamp, a new f2p character will only have 1, and if subbed, can get the 2nd.

    Hope this helps.
    please you are taking at least $100.00 of my prepaid sub and giving me garbage. and taking away 116 offline levels of mine. I will not pay for another toon slot plus get gipped out of my sub to do it. that is a level 80 pom i can fast level up . I have no desire to do all the old leveling stuff a 12th time over. Bah! Funcom you are just digging my hole even deeper and I wouldn't be surprised if you don't give refunds , to see a class action fraud suit against you. NOt me but a group of pissed off vet players. I will just use up what I get burned out of and just go away I think.

    First, thanks for having listening us about the funcom bonus points. It's cool

    I have a question about the Loyalty system. Someone subs 6 month, then stay ftp one year and come back to sub 1 year.
    Does it's loyalty rewards take in account 6 month + the 1 year or 6 months, and 6 month more ?

    I hope it's the first, because the second case would be forcing to stay subbed after a while, or disencourage to resub after a pause, neither being good.

    It's cumulative. In your example that person would have 18 months toward the membership rewards.

    Default Convert the offlines

    Also, not too happy all my offline levels will be wiped out.
    How about converting every offline point into gold?
    Lets say 1 point = 1 gold, however every 10 points however is worth 15 gold, so, an account with 36 offline points would get 51 gold.
    This would help greatly towards characters starting at level 1 to always get gear, bags, foods etc. And of course they would be a long time subbed player to have such large offline point pools.
    This would be a good reward back for their loyalty.

    On another note, how about allowing (introducing) houses, they can be placed in a guild city, and only by subbed players, and, they have an item store capacity, which would allow to drop items and display them, on the walls, floor, roof (inside).
    They could be built by architects, and have several recipes for different buildings, single small, single large, double story small, large, etc.... the larger the building the larger the item storage pool. To be different, maybe you can display your mounts and pets inside the house or in a yard attached, again, the larger the house, the larger the mounting yard. Smaller houses can be overwritten by an upgrade to a lager house, this allows players to grow their ability of storage, and display their wealth as such.
    Now here is the great part, only a subbed player can put down his/her house, after crafted by an architect, (this gives architects even more things to craft for the guild or sell on the trader), set locations within the guild city, which in turn grants more bonuses for that guild. The house would have an expanded personal bank by way of slots, the larger the house the more extra slots.

    We understand some folks have expressed concerns about Membership they've already paid for well in advance, and how that will factor in with the Bonus Points that would have been gained from that. After some discussion, we're going to perform the following:

    When the new Membership system goes live, Members will gain a lump sum of Bonus Points equal to however many they would have gained from the old system, up to the end of their cycle date (rounded up). For example, if you had 6 months left on your Membership when the new system goes live, then you'll gain 1200 Bonus Points (200BP * 6mo) to spend in the store.

    There will be a limited window to spend these points, please keep in mind.

    I hope this helps alleviate some of the concerns folks were having. Let me know if you have any questions!
    Remember that bonus points currently are capped to 1200 in AoC. May cause bugs when you try to give an account more points.

    Don't worry, it won't.
