Updated: "Petition" towards OOO: Let old knights created before this patch redo the character creation. You know what I mean OOO

541 replies [Last post]

This petition is now focused on EDIT #3. The update is not out yet but it is a known fact that it will come. A "yes, you will redo the character creation" or "no, go eat sweaty manparts" would be appreciated. Also, petitions aren't suggestions, it is an open discussion. I will respect your decision to place it in Suggestions anyway. :)

Whether it is trough some kind of special ticket or a new NPC allowing one change, we deserve to do it too.

Please post here if you support this idea, let's show OOO we want it, however, politely.

EDIT: As of the patch on 9 May, new content, important story missions have been added to the rescue camp, and we do not have access to them on our main knights. Added to the petition. As I have said in a post, I will not let this thread die until we get a clear response.

EDIT #2: I feel like I should include this here. So, let's say OOO finally listens and does this.. BUT, in the initial creation, we wouldn't have the option to change to special eyes, or XT/XS heights, and we're sure nobody would want to lose theirs in favor of a regular set of eyes and height. So what I'm proposing to fix this, is a series of special tickets:
- One that brings you back to the rescue camp to do your missions. In your gear, nothing's changed.
- One that allows you to change your height, and eyes, basically redoing the creation process entirely.
- One that allows you to redo the creation process, BUT, your eyes and height are locked to your current ones. (this is for changing and accessorizing your proto)
I believe name changes are pretty hard to do/impossible so our names would be locked. vmv

Or if the latter is impossible, just mail us a ticket to the special eyes and heights we had after we redo the normal creation process. :P Bound ofc.

EDIT #3: I have been informed that there is new proto armor coming up soon, from the Test Server. Now that would be EXCLUSIVE to new knights. Accessories, heights and such are one thing, we can buy them. But wholly new exclusive proto is something completely else because no amount of cr can buy it. If old knights don't get to redo the creation, I can only weep and mourn to what will the forums be and the amount of pure disappointment. For those of you who dont know, there are new proto styles, like the flack jacket, draped armor, round helmet and crescent helmet that were featured on the test server.

Still unlocked. :) I'm positive OOO will at least not lock it, they wouldn't do such a jerk move. We're their player base and we have an opinion.
And it's not exactly a petition, hence the quotation marks. It's just a thread for people who support this.

I second this. Or 106th it,

I second this. Or 106th it, whatever. It's not fair that we don't get one free chance to change our height, eyes and proto gear with the options new players now get. I don't want to spend 100k on it.

#108
You see, wether or not new

You see, wether or not new players get to take advantage of some things the older players have had to pay for doesn't affect me at all.

Regardless, you don't see me going around giving this thread a -1. Something similar, but not exactly, applies in real life. There exists a world with problems outside of yours. Butting in to give your negative feedback about others' problems because they do not affect you shows how ignorant you are.

Strudul, quit posting today. All I have heard out of you is stupid.

#109
It like you are fanboying me or something.

It is nothing drastic. It is purely vanity stuff. To me, it doesn't even look good. It is not the end of the world.

It like I am totally not fanboying you or something, replying to your question using your... talk.

I simply think you are stupid. By the way, the fact that it is vanity isn't the issue people have been upset about.

Inform you about what it is they actually are upset about? Nooooo, I'd rather let you read and struggle.

I could give you all the reasons as to why I am not stupid and you are... but... that would be too self-glorifying.

It is much more funny to watch you kick off. It is like taunting a caged animal (not that this is funny or should be practised).

I would have liked to have been given the chance to have a new height and eyes despite being an older player.

I agree

The new character customization gives people around 140k* crowns of customization right off the bat... That would've been rather nice to have...

*by my quick calculations, i could easily be wrong.

#122
Indeed

I won't mind a 'no', but if OOO doesn't want us to, then I hope they tell us. I don't like being left in the dark.

Yup.
I want this to happen, but in my personnel opinion I don't think OOO will do it.

All of us had a chance to pick an armor and design; eyes, height and accessories are available for sale. No problem here.
Oh yeah, how can OOO dare encouraging new players by giving them free stuff!?

Even tho I'd like to make some changes myself, I can't agree here.

-1 This is a non-issue...

How many people even wear their proto gear. I mean I do all the time but I don't see many others rocking that look. I was curious about the changes so I tried the new character creation and the only accessory I liked was the ribbon. My proto gear has one already and I bought it for less than 5k crs. (I also have vertical vents equipped too and so I couldn't accessorize my helm even if I wanted too). So not a big deal...

Ok, the eyes.... Eyes are cheap on the AH. What is it, less than 25K crs now for some styles? I don't obsess over prices so I might be spit balling a bit but at current payouts that's like 5.8 JK missions or 3.5 KoA missions... big deal. You could do it in a night. (I also changed my eyes already so not super interested in a freebie).

Finally, the height, it's all about the height... The really noticeable changes, extra tall/small are still out of reach for most players who don't get lucky. What is it like 2000+ ce for each? But come on, the tall and the small heights are pretty reasonably priced and sold by Vatel. In fact, at current payouts it takes ~11.5 JK missions or 7.1 KoA missions to earn the crowns to buy the height Mod. It's not a big deal... prioritize your spending, have fun running levels in the game and work towards what you want.

This change doesn't mean they hate old players, I know I had benefits starting out that new players never got. Oh heck yeah, CE hit 3k? Buy, buy, buy. Do you hear veteran players complaining about this? I crafted 4* before costs of crafting doubled, do you hear me complaining that I should have paid more? I sold a couple unbound bomb heads for a [poop] load of money. All benefits someone else starting the game now will never have. It's all about balance and perspective.

Anything that makes the game easier for new people to play leads to a more healthy and sustainable game for years to come. More people = more money = more programmers = more content...

Chill, drink a beverage of your choice and calm down.

Hey guys

just to re-iterate: As much as Strudul shouldn't have made an over-summarised "It is stupid anyway.", it doesn't mean you should mock him/her and rub the post at his/her face. Just because s/he says the idea is stupid doesn't always mean the person who made it is stupid.

Why not ask "how is it stupid?" That would have cleared up a lot of things. I don't get why do you all get so personal on the internet. It's things like this that makes you bullying targets.

#139
I Agree

+1

Considering that items can be given a time limit (cake tokens, pumpkin tokens, etc.)....
And that accessories can be easily automatically mailed off to players (Pumpkin bomb bandolier, parrying blades, etc.)....
And that it should not (this is just an assumption I've come to from the aforementioned points) be too troubling to implement....

I think that it would not cost OOO any considerable resources to simply mail time-expiring accessories to the playerbase, which would be a good show of promotion of equality and fair-ness to it's loyal (debatable) playerbase. Thanks in advance, OOO.

I agree with this. I mean seriously though, I'm at tier 3 and I would LIKE to get those accessories but I'm not going to pay 50K for each change. That's basically a upgrade to a five star weapons. And I feel like a lot of people feel the same way and we probably won't buy the height and stuff for a long time but we will be upset about it
