i seriously think that MA is going nut...

1st : Lets do a event no one knows about, and its going to be for a short period of time... let say swedish morning time...screw those who have a real life, work etc. So when they log back in, they would be able to see how good MA were at organising such a good event...

2nd : let the event take place somewhere not accessible for everyone... like pvp... so only the ubers will show up...the others can try... but whatever they wont live long...

3rd : make sure the same ubers return back with some awsome loot thats is not going to drop anymore soon, so they fetch tt+20k minimum... after all ubers need this...

4th : Also make sure that most of the new drop discovered are from the most popular people in entropia... aka the ubers we all know of that already have adj. or imp. stuffs on them... look at the listing... every interesting items is from players who are wearing/using gears that no normal player can afford.

This new V.U. favor the oldtimer... those that are already nearly able to live off this game in reallife, they are now getting all the good benefit... MA seem to control manually the drops of new items... selected fews are getting them and its intented...

oh and again about that event... why are commons name again showing up as attending these... were they contacted by MA to be online at that time or its just luck... errr thats true... there no such thing as luck in entropia...

That is my opinion and what i have seen in the latest days around...

isnt that what someone else feel currently?

That was one of the most insteresting events from MindArk. And a great way to introduce new weapons! Even the universe itself looked alive for a while.

My guess is that MA make most of their money (apart from islands/palaces/banks) from the players aspiring to be ubers. These peolpe probably deposit loads of cash in an attempt to reach that "uber" status, or get hold of that high end gear.

So ... my take on the event is that it's a tactic (ploy?) by MA to say "look at what cool stuff you can do if you become an uber!"

hmmm....

This is why I think this game is turning into total BS. When MA starts to do events like this, then how are other mid level players supposed to reach uber status? There are alot of non uber players who deposit money in the game, and get nothing in return. So dont feed me the crap about " all the ubers deposit on a daily basis, so they deserve these kinds of things ". Who needs events like this more, the uber players who already make a comfortable living in the game, or the players trying to get to that staus? If they keep doing things like this for the top players, then whats gonna keep the new guys around? And yes, I do deposit in the game. What do I have to show for it??? Shogun armor and some crap weapons. I've put in about $600 US within the 5 months that I have been playing. How many globals have I gotten? 1 with a value of 52 ped. Maybe its just my frustrations coming out, but I think there are some others that would agree with me.

Congratz to all who benefited from the event tho. I'm not trying to rain on your parade.

maybe a grain of truth, i know for fact big investors do get phoned up by MA on a regular basis

that is major problem, if rare stuff was dropped all time it would be rated crappy shogun no matter its stats.

Nice article...nice event for a handpicked class of ppl...

and now can someone tell me how many ppl have sold out in the last weeks ?

take a look @ skills in auc.. the prices are falling like hell....many, many ppl sold out and left entropia..

but hey.. dont panic.. MA is on the right way to make entropia a special game for a few chosen people


and some day this chosen people wake up and wonder.. no one buys anything in our shops ? no one hunt in our LA ? whats going on?..

hmm maybe because most of the "normal" players and beginners have left the game...

time to wake up MA..



btw. more than 500.000 accounts... i wonder why i meet mostly the same ppl

because most people have a "hometown" and like to hang out in the same place alot. So these people you meet probably "live" at the town you return to after a hunt
