at this rate the bots wont even make money.
This the end game.
We playing chicken atp.
Either they get banned or we get tired of competing with computers.
Im almost 90% sure i am more committed but we shall see in a couple months
You know, ags could always route bots into an empty sever, name it Abyss & disable the ability to transfer out of it. And at the end of every month, ban every bot that gets routed there.

Just pointing out they have banned 9k bot accounts since launch. If they all started new accounts, that is 360k revenue for AGS. What other revenue do they have besides the small amount of transactions in the cash shop? All the new real players?

like those bot bombs they used to make in mmos in the early 2000s with the random generated password game that you could throw onto a botter?
Them joints were NASTY lol.
it sucks cause you could use those bombs on anyone.
so imagine grinding or getting to a nice fresh star metal pile and POOF you are trapped in an alternate dimension.
lmdao then the worse part is having to appeal the fact you failed the test that made you end up getting teleported.
If it was just a reaction timer bomb, im down.
like say if the person doesnt type a response. And or been idle for over 40 seconds to farm one spot.
yyeahhhh but a random puzzle??? ehhhh that would be chaos
i have no shame about buying cash shop items.
dude.
the items are 5-20 items lmdao
im sure we keeping new world in the black from housing furniture cosmetics alone.
But on a serious note.
i have no idea. I just hope they dont make it p2w or succumb to anymore peer pressure.
what do you think will happen after the next patch?
When isn’t it chaos though?
Pretty easy to tell if a user is a bot starting with the name since bot accounts have as about as much creativity as drying paint. The character moves back and forth, doesn’t respond to anyone talking, and repeats the same action 24hrs without rest. Idk where you got the random puzzle part but I’m not that sadistic. Only in Opr.
Wonder if they’d try doing community cosmetics like Warframe does letting us create cosmetics for NW along the way.
I wouldn’t mind character slots in the cash shop.

when you can sit and have a nostalgic moment with random people on video games.
Feeling content to grind.
Having a good 1v1 without lag or rubber banding.
If they fix the bugs first i wouldnt mind the bots tbh. wby?
they using real names now.
Like jacksonsonobey or chatoxic
They are becoming smarter.
dare i say… -Evolving- ?
idk i thought i got a dark vibe and was just riding the wave lol.
Also im pretty sure you remember the days the bot bombs could grief random players lol
i miss mabinogi so much smh.
solid idea.
you should make a post about this to be bumped occasionally.
cause i agree we need less bots especially in opr.
sounds awesome.
like making our own colour coding for furniture ?
this also deserves its own post.
Bots never really stopped me from farming 10k+ resources a night for profit, why would they stop me afterwards lol.
Their patters don’t really change though
I remember but I hardly ran into bot bombs. I do remember the mabinogi days though I didn’t play it as heavily as I did Grand Chase. Which later became Elsword that has been is my love, hate relationship for about a decade now.
The bots in OPR idk if I’ve really ran into them as often. I know people complain a lot about aimbot muskets but I have never died to a musket so idk. Now a days I can’t even enjoy OPR anyway since my server is pretty dead & Ags hasn’t unlocked the only server I’d care to go to.
yeah, and armor skins, weapon skins, tool skins. Basically let we the community create unique cosmetics along with whatever ags ends up tossing in. Lets us all contribute a lil.
Hasn’t it already been a post before?

They don’t permanently ban bot accounts. The ban ranges from 24 hours to 7 days depending on how many times they have been caught.
Most of those 9000 bots are still running around now, or they are waiting for a short ban cooldown to come back again.
I think Amazon is telling AGS they need to meet some milestones in order to stay alive…which i don’t think they are achieving. Be interesting to see what happens after 1st or 2nd quarter of this year. My bet is it will not even go f2p, but taken down.

I love this idea… I’d be looking forward to the videos from players who were mistakenly banished to the abyss and have to play in this forsaken land of bots, while they struggle desperately to convince AGS they are a real person before they reach wipe day.
my point exactly.
either the botters get the hell off our servers when they realize they have no worth or we allow them to take our position and give the game a bad representation of lack of real players
you as a real person define the new player experience.
you know how fresh starts feel dripping in new world and seeing bots? and no resources?
like dam what can they do to level.
but when they see posts like yours or see you in open world, gues what? that gives them HOPE.
and you redefine the game for them.
isnt that better then 20k mats?
true. they are predictable .
competing for loadstones for 10 hours is frustrating but predictable af.
it seems to me like you a veteran out here.
but i never commited heavily to elsword cause i was addicted to mabinogi , rumble fighter , cabal. and rf at the time.
Why was it a love hate relationship ??
i hope they unlock maramma so yall can experience the sweet release of aim bots and a 15 v 15 musket death match. lol.
but seriously ice gaubt and this desync makes pvp unbearable.
The desync makes it impossible to kill or be killed due to stutter and ppl using instant transmission. lol ( disappearing joke)
you think theyll add legit trabsmog during isabella update?
im tired of buying limited time dye sets.
. why is everything good time gated???..
not sure but if you made a post id bump lol.
they need constant reinforcement of good ideas
that is so real and morbid.
what if we been playing a game on borrowed time?
what if ags been going bankrupt behind closed doors? we dont get a financial report and clearly everyone isnt buying cash shop items or a subscription… hmm…
…well doesnt this make you wanna enjoy the game more? i feel more compelled to be selfish with the game thinking about it like this.
im gonna log on and spam opr till my eyes bleed… cause you never know if the game might be actually closing next week or next month … smh.
its a terrifying thought.
what type of content would save the game atp? blunderbuss? isabella dungeon? another merge?..
i just dont wanna throw away all the cool ass connections i met on new world.
seems… so anti climatic…
we talked so much trash. had so many fights. made so many friends and for what? to lose it all cause the dev team isnt willing to properly organize their ideas???
life shouldnt be like this.
but you know what? there is hope.
the game itself is so beautiful.
Just seeing the sun reflect off your armor during the sunset… is mesmerizing . you know?
they have everything thatll make a good gamer stay if they just dig in and clean up the bugs maybe?
Runescape, Adventure Quest Worlds, Dungeon Fighter Online, MapleStory, Grand Chase, Closers, Soul Worker was what I played most of among all the mmos, and well stayed on GC until ES.
I have been in love with Elsword for a long time but there are things that you just can’t forgive. Like when they switched Item Level to Combat Power. Real nice on paper, but it fucked everyone locking out people from dungeons they otherwise would have had entry with Item level. The entire CP system itself is screwed up, nobody really knows what adds or decreases CP. Pouring heavy resources into going up 10,000 CP when MOST OF THE FUCKING DUNGEONS are pushing 3.7 million CP now. -,…-
Or when they took a fully PVP based character and nerfed it 8 times in a row over a year just because people couldn’t fight a class literally designed and even stated Best suited for PvP. And took my favorite skill (RIP Flying Impact)
But I love the game anyway. Ironically the PvP for Elsword while it has a lot of problems such as PvE raid gear being allowed in PVP which is really bullshit on top of the ranking system is utter garbage as it places 
Rank during placement matches. Then every match after is S - SSS rank 100% of the time. The PvP while unbalanced 1000 times worse than what people bitch about NW is still fun. Who ever catches who first wins. Chain comboing spells, catching people in mid air, winning when you have less CP than the other fucker. It’s too much fun to give up.
It does have 2 things I thought might have done well for NW.
Elsword has PvP based Gear you can evolve through playing PvP to make it stronger.
Abilities have damage scaled for PvE & PvP.
It’s a love hate relationship because there’s things the game does that just utterly piss me off but I have been playing this game for about 10 years now. Game is still releasing content as a new raid got released not too long ago, a new area, new class paths. It will always be my #1.
I Don’t think I’ve ever ran into Desync. Other than rare occasions back when server wasn’t 80 people.
I think its good to hope.
Technically if we add psychology to this. Because its limited, we the consumer desire it more which makes us out of impulse purchase to have something that is no longer available.
Nah, the only post I’ve ever made was a rebuild design of the Life Staff that got jack shit traction. I was gonna do a remake of the SwordMaster too just haven’t finished it. I wanna make a post of a rebuild of OPR like I did the first time on your postal war over OPR burried somewhere in the Ether of the forum. Just haven’t finished quite yet either.

I think that new garbage world will have around 12/13 milions of players in the and of 2022.
I hope new world gets 300k players again just to see this guy’s reaction.

Not sure if you add anything to the game, it would fix it. Game is beautiful graphically, and that is about it for me personally. Take it down and rebuild it from the ground up on a different engine.
Smooth game flow is more important than the game having superior graphics for me.
