when you shake a early backers forging goes wrong to balance out the universe fairness

My 2 pennies worth…

First, founder pack perks will not be screwed with, if you were not around to back the game early I understand how you feel BUT the founders took a VERY early chance on this game even before most people even heard of it… their rewards should and I dare say WILL remain exclusive…

Secondly, creating NEW DLC’s that ALL can buy now is a SUPER Idea…any exclusive items MUST be new though…no repeats of founder items…and there are tons of ideas many are tossing out too! Any new DLC MUST stack with any founder or early backperks and packs though (example an new plot percentage DLC must stack with any and all older plot % otherwise it is screwing the early backers…). New DLCs could include new usable items, tools, weapons, furniture, uploadable pictures/emblemns, plot percentage bonuses (stacked with existing ones), etc…

you sure about this?

The reason is that players got them for backing a game that might or might not have been released. The argument that had I known I would have bought it just does not really matter. I could say that about a lot of other games that, while on steam when they were early access or pre-order even, I did not get them or was unaware of them. So does that mean every game out there should never offer anything to the players that back the game early or pre- order that they will not allow every other player to also get? Then what is the point in offering them anyway? Why ever pre-order or back a game? Just wait until launch and you can still get the game and any perks with no risk.

And no, we did not get perks before anyone else could. We got perks that anyone playing the game at that time had access to. That is not the same thing.

I play a few games that I either bought into early or grinded for months to get exclusive items…only for those same items to be given out for free later on. #feelsbadman I generally lose interest really quickly when that happens. It makes you lose trust in that developer/studio and you move on to a different game.

Was that with a lot of stuff forged onto them, or are they about as good as one of those tools by default? We’re just navigating the transition to Titanium and needing less metal to make an all-purpose tool would probably have gotten us there a bit faster.

I think the fists are great for low-mid range players. I always have one on me, even when I go to T7 Exos. They take less inventory room since they can be used as an axe, a shovel, a hammer, and a slingbow. They are slower with less range, but powerful. If they are forged, they can be great. I like mine with range, dmg, and crit.

if i hadnt spend 2000 hours in beta they probably would not know how to balance those tools and we all would have gotten there way slower :smiley:
first thousand hours using a regular totem and i got pretty far
also founder totems have been avaible to the community since day one
all it took was asking someone to swing by they could have just kept them and sold them you know
also where ya wonna get fast?
dont wonna be anoying but it kinda gets under my skin this youre basically saying that all this time ive been playing doesnt count and is a way off cheating buy paying to win becuase have this dumb founder totem

We are all in a beta haha

It would be cool if we got exclusive outfits based on hours of play. Like a bronze hat after 1000 hours, copper 2000 hours, titanium 3000, silver 4000, gold 5000, sapphire 6000 etc.

Dragons & characters in Trove - had to grind for months and/or pay irl $ to get, then they gave them away later on.

Cars in Asphalt

Warframe $50 warframes eventually become obtainable via relics for free

Access to Taverley and Burthorpe became f2p in OSRS…

They gave away different dragons though, right?

No, it was the exact dragons & characters. :frowning_face:

The only issue with this is, what’s stopping people from going AFK to get the rewards?

I actually spend A LOT if my time AFK. Chances are if you see me in game Im probably AFK or going to go AFK within half an hour. Steam tells me I have over 700 hours in the game but I can almost guarantee it’s about half that. I definitely don’t deserve a reward for play time since half of my play time is spent AFK.

I think this is the only MMO game that doesn’t automatically log you out after you are afk for X amount of time.
