    Default Atlantica -- A ruined game

    EDIT: Ruined game has been fixed, I will quote gm of game:

    "Hi everyone,

    I just wanted to address some of the concerns in this thread. First let me state that cap has been lifted, you simply need to re-log for the effects to take place. The system was in place to help us fight users using macros to gain excessive profit but it was not working as intended at the moment. We want to apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you but you are now free to open as many boxes as you would like.

    Atlantica_GM05"

    Here was my original message, before the "box stamina":

    First the Stamina system. Which, I was like "Ok...that's pretty lame but I'll give it a shot." Now, with the release of OB they introduce yet ANOTHER limit they put on the players: How many boxes you can open per day.. Now, opening boxes is pretty much the main way to advance in this game. Opening boxes gives you gear, materials for crafting, skills to advance your characters, etc. Pretty much: Boxes are the gateway to advancing in the game.

    Why on earth would they put a limit (which by the way I reached within 2 hours of playing the game, immediately when the servers opened). This box opening limit is even 100x worse than the horrible stamina limit.

    Why would you want to limit how much your players can play and level and upgrade and advance in the game so much?

    I don't know, and I don't care. But I'm gone. Atlantica is ruined.


    ---

    They like to give BS reasons for releasing all these limits...but I'm pretty sure they are just going to release cash -shop items that take away these limits; so that they can say "Hey its a free game!" Then make tons of money becuz you really cant even advance in the game with these limits; and to take them away you must give them cash.

    --------

    Ammended: Since they lifted the box limit, I will continue to try this game.

    Exactly, lucky for me I won't be playing it 10+ hours a day so my stamina never runs out.

    But didn't the threadstarter said that he reached the limit upon playing for 2 hours?

    lol sounds to me they made that so casual players gain as much as people who play it all day.time for you nerds to go outside lol (not intended to anyone in general).

    Don't you mean the lost city of ATLANTIS? Or maybe Atlanta, Georgia?
