I do feel for all you guys who spent half a mil scrip on a blade you probably don't even use too much ! I grinded away all weekend the bonuses were on and bought over 1 mil's worth of guns, an Assassin Wolfhound being my fav purchase. I ended up with just over what the price was for the blade and I am so happy I didn't buy it and to be honest at 15k still not sure whether to buy, as it's no longer a special item just a glorified tooth pick !! :)
I paid for the purple blade just a day before the price drop! I feel like a total idiot! The fact that Trion did not include reimbursement with the new patch causes me further aggrevation. Are we always going to have to coplain to get fair treatment? Trions true colors are so glaringly evident that I am blinded; with rage! I here by make a pledge to buy nothing else from Trion until they make this right! Who else is with me on this?
what you didn't see the parade they had for you in your honor? they had it right after you bought the bladeQuote:

We've all been playing this game for months now and have seen how much Trion care about their loyal fans. I can't believe people are actually surprised when something like this happens. The way I see it is that they've got us over a barrel, so either get over it and carry on playing or move on to other games to get your fix.
I don't agree with what they are doing but it's their game to do with what they want even if it means ruining it for all of us.
You know what...It's really not a big deal.
I paid 100,000 scrip for the purple one but, so what. I really don't mind and I'm actually glad that they lowered the price so most people can afford one.
Scrip isn't that hard to come by, in all honesty, and I made the money back within a couple of days of playing and that's just by playing too, not selling any legendaries or anything like that.
I really feel people should stop complaining and get on with it...Be glad that they're easily accessible for everyone and stop being so selfish and outraged...
Basically, what I'm trying to say is, stop moaning...Don't like it, don't play anymore!!!
I also want all the salvage back that I spent on upgrading turrets when I then got lagged out of sieges. I won't get it but I still want it.
As for those who don't see that scrip issue as a big deal well that means it's not a big deal for you. I never got the 500k, but it isn't as easy as you say it is to get. They aren't being selfish-they have a right to be annoyed.
If the only answer to those who are obviously still playing is to tell them to be quiet or stop playing, good luck with that. You really want to play the game alone, because that's what you'll get.
It is ridiculous to have something cost 500k scrip and then without warning go to 15k.
People bought loot boosts perhaps to get there. Or they were grinding in the game doing things they might not have done, just to get the scrip rather than playing other things with friends. It does matter. It doesn't for you, but you are not speaking for everyone.
I'm not affected by this but I do see some very disconcerting things that show they are not thinking about fans or considering their "feelings" in much of this.
They have dropped loot drop rates-in order to help with lag, but that has a negative affect on fans. They are trying to create things to all but force us to use real money instead of creating content that makes us want to spend real money. Not a good model to follow. If enough of us quit without even trying to say why we are thinking about it beforehand, the game will die. If people stay and complain, things might be fixed enough to insure a continuing player base.
They already announced they are refunding everyone the 485k next week. Close this thread already somebody
They have of course already announced that they are giving the scrip back. So we could just wait and see if they do do that early next week as promissed.
edit: damn, Four beat me to the post. I need to learn to actually write posts when I start them and not leave them and do other stuff :)
lol you can take some credit. Give yourself 12% credit :D (lol avengers)Quote:
