New Quest Same Old Rubbish

So first of all (I think this is the right place to post) well done on finally pulling yours head out of the sand box and coming up with new quests (took your sweet time tho) buts as quoted on the back page message "At this point in time, you will no longer be able to accept all old missions" where dose that leave people who have not yet been able to complete quests due to lack of players on server ie Hunt the Hunter etc. Also not many people have had the chance to do 1000 goli kills so they will then miss out on these rewards.

Secondly "While missions, which were used to calculate ranking points, will be reset to zero" are you lot for real?.. We all have to loose out on RP's earned and some of those quests wasn't easy, I for 1 can tell you where to go with that idea, leave players RP's be no need to reset them.

Seems like all DO want to do these days is take, take, take and give next to nothing back, im sure some players may agree with me others may not. Feel free to post add some feedback or your own thoughts on the subject.

 

I dont see any new mission..... the 1000 goli mission is not a problem u can finish it on a month ... and about the rank points idk about that but a lot of player are going to lose a lot of rank points including me...

 

new missions will come out soon as they've announced in forms, and quests like 1k golis is hard to do in a month depending on the server as im on GB2 and its dead

 

Posted this on a similar thread. It doesn't really take many RPs away.

 

It is not so much the rank points, its the principle.
We earned those points, if it doesn't make much difference, then all the more reason no to take them away.

 

It doesn't matter how many rps it is, there our RP's that all us players have earned, therefore DO should have no right to remove them and can keep their grubby hands off.

 

Hmmm, I've thought hard on this subject and of course I'm still slightly confused. Is it only RP from quests that are being deleted?

Peace

 

I don't like the fact that old quests will be deleted and I hope that there is some way around this or at least of increasing the deadline.

As for the rank points, it doesn't bother me that much since everyone is in the same boat so for the most part it won't make much of a difference. I will lose 23,200 rank points from this, not much at all can make that much in a few hours if I wanted. And the noobs would no doubt lose less rank points meaning even they can make it all back in a few hours.

 

What a bunch of hens. You all are carrying on like you got pinched for a bot and they are taking away your upgrades and pilot points. It clearly says what you have earned so far will not change. Meaning if your a major now, you will be when they restart the "clock" on the quests completed.
Its not like any of us went down to your local retailer and bought the game for $19.95. You as well as I play the same game within the guidelines of BigPoint. Does our voices matter? Yes, but only to a curtain point.
How about a little less knee jerking reactions and wait and see how it shakes out.

 

It's not a knee jerk reaction. If it is not going to be how we are reading it, then they need to explain the change more clearly.

We put time and effort into obtaining the rank points for doing quests.

If we do not air our thought on such changes, they will just go ahead with the changes. So it is necessary for use to air our concerns, so adjustments can be made before it is introduced, if that is felt appropriate.

 

This is the reply I got in another post asking about RP for Missions completed:
Hello ζΞĆăpţ.ĦăωķΞζ

To our understanding, the line item from the Ranking section:

+ Missions completed 71 x 100
... will be reset to 0. I presume that it will still remain as an item so that new Quests completed will then count again towards your Rank, however that is only a guess on my part. Until the update actually goes live, or we are informed further, all we can do is speculate on how the new Quest features will operate.

Any further questions on this would be pointless, since we do not have any answers. The limits of our information can all be found in the Official Announcement and in the pop-up on your HOME page. If you wish to comment further on the proposed changes, please use one of the existing threads already on this topic in Speakers' Corner (we have already passed those links on to Support as a reference).

If we receive any further details, they will be posted in the Official Announcements. We will create an official feedback thread for the update once the changes go live.

The original thread states there will be no disadvantage as everyone's counter is reset to zero. However, if Missions Completed is reset to zero, long-time players such as myself will lose the many Event Quests we have completed over the years. So that would be a disadvantage as far as rank points goes if indeed this is the case.

 

I think we will be deducted RP only from the quest itself meaning 100 points for each quest. That being said the new quest are just more stupid as the old ones and no real reward. I said somewhere else and i will say it again i just didnt expect much but i still had some hope they would put quests like do X galaxy gate and u get one for free
or i dont know get some bloody rsb off a quest but good amounts not just 100 rsb.
Anyways i dont know why i bother anymore

 

The new quest is a full new system with a story line to it, quest give a lot better uri depends on the hardness or the quest and yes its a pain that they are removing the rp for our old quest for the new system hit wont hit gb2 and server as new as our but servers like gb1 will be hit hard as there quest should lose over 50k rp we gonna get something for our hard work its feels like one step forward and one step back would be nice for an event to come out like if bigpoint dose something wrong like an honor glitch, ep glitch somthing like that as a sorry for wasting your time we will put the reward event on insted of a stupid hadez gate

 

Any update that doesn't cost millions of uri is fine with me. And if you think about it the high level players and long time players can farm the new noob missons for their rank points back, so it's no big deal.

 

lol your not getting the point we already made the points y should we have to do it again and you can only do the missions once so where you get the farming from lol

 

why cant we get a new x-9 map or something with npcs (similar to Kristallons or something) i havent played this game in over 4 months (i log on and send sep and log off). The game is very boring. My account is sitting 100 mill exp from lvl 21, registered 2008, and millions of x4s.. its very boring to even play -_-

 

It should be fairly easy for DO to make a new line item in "Your Rank" that says
Old Quests -> x100 ->

They did it when they moved to the current ship calculation, which is that
"Kills since the last calculation" line item at the bottom.

But, I'm not holding my breath... lost more rank points off the lordakia than I'll lose from the quests since the event quests haven't counted for quest count in three years and the daily quests never have...

 

1 month! which server do u play...cos it guessing its not GB1...ud be lucky to get 1k golis in a year..maps are dead

 

i play on ga1 and i finished my eic nemesis in 2 weeks x3 and a bit of x4 but oh wow mmo on my server is totally lost i only see like three ships active which are Terror the legend and someguy with an unstoppable name i think not sure... but to see 10 mmo ships is like looking for a ghost ...
