This is absolutely just appalling straight up. You do realise the entirety purpose of the arenas are for glory points, which was the exact same thing in retail. Arenas providing glory points also gives the players who are from different time zones (across the other side of the world), people who work shift work even in this current timezone the opporunity to be able to somewhat stay competitive in being able to rank up. Removing this, the only way to rank up is through EOB, Kamar, IWW, IS, EB and sieges. You also do realise, a majority of the population has to pug (quick entry) these instances because no one will take or accept someone into a premade of any sort whether it's EOB, Kamar or IWW. They're forced to quick entry, and end up losing for 10 gp. People in these different time zones or people who work late, that's not enough to be able to maintain any sort of rank. This server has like a mean girl clique, and if you're not apart of it you cant join into those instances to gain rank. The new players, players who don't socialise or interact with the majority of the population whether it's language barriers, or just don't vibe. So it's already hard enough for these people to even gain gp to begin with, simply because of that. 10 gp for every loss which a majority of people who do quick group because they cant get into a premade. But back onto the subject about removing gp from arenas, I understand that you want people to be able to interact in sieges and whatnot more to be able to gain gp and thigns like that. But arena gp is a core fundamantal of aion, has it has been for a very long time. You do realise, to mimise the risk of people abusing, or dodging, you could just do what other private servers have done. if you don't enter the arena, the ticket is consumed, easy done. Problem fixed. Either enter, face your opponent, or dodge the queue or don't enter and lose your ticket and your gp from that, that way it is also much easier to monitor those people who would continue to queue dodge even with losing their ticket for their other account to win and get the gp, and just easy ban them. On the topic of sieges as a main contribution to gp, how are you promoting diversity and inclusivity to those people from different paths of life, from different parts of the world where they can't even rank up because the main source of their gp is the arenas, do you expect those people to just wake up at 3-5am just to attend a siege for 1 hour? You realise that is extremely unhealthy, because I know there are quite a few people on this server who are from different parts of the world, whether it's the United States, South America, Australia, Canada. How do you address these people on your server? Who would like to rank up and gain gp? Because they like this server, they like this population, they like being able to do everything that retail had offered them, by simply doing those EOB, Kamar, IWW, IS, EB and not to forget ARENAS. Sure, they'd attend sieges every now and then, but not every single one at 5am. I feel like there are a lot of ways to fix the issues of queue dodging in arenas, and the problems with gp in it. I feel like you're just choosing the most easiest way, the least hassle and least stressful way. Rather than just being able to tackle to problem head on, by consuming the arena ticket and monitoring the people who do go into arenas alone for a quick simple fix. Similiar to the way you've caught siege traders. Please explain to me how these people from these different parts of the world, can feel a sense of inclusivity and feeling like their diversity matters, because from the sounds of this. To put it blatantly, from the sounds of this. You just don't care about those players, and you don't care about them enjoying the game of being able to rank up. Because that's the point of gp in Aion, there's a wide range of ways to gain gp, ranging from the instances, to the sieges, to the pvp instances, to arenas. Which I believe, the purpose of that is to accommodate for people to be able to earn gp in a way that is able to fit into their schedule, into their timezone and into their way of playing aion.

Those of us who work late don't have access to maintain/get the rank we want (in my case, just Officer 2) because you took away the arenas, which were 80% of my daily AP. Those of us who cannot go to Kamars, Yogurmans (in the morning it is very tight on time) and sieges (at night the same) we will not be able to get AP so thanks for forcing me to leave the game, because without access to the PVP set you do not have sense to keep playing. I hope that in the future you will reconsider this, because I am convinced that many will find themselves in a situation similar to mine. Greetings.

Доброго времени суток уважаемые игроки! Учитывая то, что нашему проекту идет уже третий год и то, что верхний порог рейтинга игроков уже почти достиг отметки в 300 тыс. ОС нами было принято решение провести "порезку" очков славы до стандартных значений. Все "лишние" очки славы, количество которых выше чем в указанной таблице, будут удалены! Данные изменения вступят в силу в ближайшее время. Каждый игрок останется в своем ранге! Если ваш текущий ранг - "Офицер 5-го ранга", то у вас будет 5210 Очков славы. У Военачальникa же будет 12437 ОС, у Командующего - 11503 и так далее. Все игроки, которые на момент проведения "порезки рангов" будут в ранге 1го воина, останутся в своем ранге и будут иметь 1000 очков славы. Такое решение принято не с проста. К нам на регулярной основе поступали предложения об обнулении рейтинга славы. Причина этому - много "мертвых душ" в рейтинге; огромное количество ОС, к которым очень сложно добраться новичку; нежелание новых игроков начинать свой путь на таком сервере. Еще одно изменение касательно очков славы: мы полностью уберем очки славы из награды за Арену Хаоса, Арену Доблести, Арену Покровительства и Арену Славы. Такое решение принято нами после долгих раздумий и анализа многочисленных жалоб от игроков по поводу злоупотребления игровыми механиками при входе на арену со стороны недобросовестных пользователей. Надеемся, что данное решение поможет изменить ситуацию на серверных осадах и и сделает развитие персонажей более увлекательным - ведь теперь у всех будет столько возможностей и перспектив! Не забывайте, что у каждого появится шанс стать новой легендой EuroAion!

а почему вы пишете что вашему проекту уже 3-й год при чем тут это? урезание ОС происходит не впервые как это взаимосвязано? и может уже стоит ввести обнуление ос каждый год? люди покупают тратят деньги на бусты чтоб подниматься а вы списуете в итоге, будет какая то компенсация?

Perfectly said, i will most likely just quit and many others too, because i cant keep my gear or my rank so no reason for me to go arenas anymore or even play the game

Wow what a kick in the balls this decision is, quite fascinating actually, what a good way to reward those players who stayed on this server while many others went to GC like 3 times in the row! Equalizing them with the active ones on EA. Which happened because you never culled/soft reseted GP like everyone does in every single competitive ladder nowadays, e.g. League of Legends. Soft reset at the end of the year, losing like 50% of your rank so there is no inflation in points like right now. Doing usual soft resets means that active players are rewarded more than inactives as they should while not having to force a hard reset Which could be easily fixable by just adjusting the GP loss per day for the lower ranks. The issues is that people want to get to 2 star officer so they can equip their end-game pvp gear but they can't because there are tons of 2 stars already who lose what, 23 GP per day? 23 GP! You can sustain this just by sitting AFK in EOB x2/Kamar x2 and actually climbing up making a profit. Not to mention Arenas, IWW, IS, 300 GP in Abyss siege just by killing 3 lv45 towers. Isn't the GP decay doubled already hence why big ranks lose 250 GP per day? Just increase the decay for 2 star to like 100, In less than a month half of them who are alts will decay to 1 star naturally, they won't be able to sustain it. And what exactly will be the reason for a player to actually go for Arenas now? Get a random L80 stone in 1 out of 5 winning chests? Literally removing the viability of the content in an already limited patch when it comes to content since the server is locked to 4.6 The problem is trading and everyone knows it, how does removing the GP reward from Arenas help exactly when people trade the exact same way in EOB/Kamar daily trying to matchfix with their alts? Are you gonna remove the GP reward from EOB/Kamar too? Isn't it literally the same? So you know and admit that people trade constantly and you have an official ladder on your website for 1v1/3v3 etc, isn't it quite simple to just look at the top of the so called ladder and check manually those names/people who are top rank but they barely play? Isn't it obvious that they trade, can''t you check them manually in-game and ban them since trading is against the rules? Its specific people anyway who abuse this to the extreme, 10,20,30 people at best. Easily detectable since they camp that Arena Door for hours until they matchfix. But that would require a in-game GM to actually log and work. Sieges have been actually active the past few days before any of those changes. Those changes have nothing to do with Siege to begin with, people who traded on Arenas will trade on Siege too its not rocket science. Actually its gonna make it worse, people to maximize their GP gains will trade as much as possible now since their sources/income of GP is going to be limited now. The siege situation is the way it is based on the in-game politics and the fact that you reward the "losing" faction with a PvP buff which is equal if not more than all Accs +5. There is a reason why Elyos get Artifacts in Abyss often and not use them, specific Legion gets them so other Elyos won't have the ability to use them and actually get a fort so Elyos eventually get the 10% PvP buff and Asmos won't. More Luluxds running around clueless Also whats the plan, you announced that you will reset now but there should be schedule, you will reset anytime you feel like (every 3 years) or actually following a schedule e.g. every 6 months. People should know so they will know if they should commit in this fiesta of a server who keeps getting DDOSed almost every siege which is gonna increase now i guess, that guy is gonna have the time of his life now that more people are gonna depend on Siege for GP.

Deleting GP from arena also kills the ppl that work shifts like night shift and early/late shift, because they cant hold their rank, so pls overthink that change

Someone on discord suggested cera for arena. I think that's a great idea. What use is your new 2* if you can't afford any gear?

Потренироваться в ПвП, потешить самолюбие и почесать эго=)

Good day dear players! First of all, we would like to sincerely thank everyone who stayed with, no matter the difficulties! Considering that our project has been on for almost 3 years, and that the upper positions in the abyss rating have almost reached 300 thousand points, we have decided to cut the Glory points to standard numbers. All the extra points over the table numbers will be removed. The changes will take effect in the nearest future. Every player will keep their rank! If your current rank is "5 Star Officer" you will have 5210 Glory Points; Governor will have 12437GP; Commander - 11503 and so on. All the players below officer ranks will keep their ranks too and will have the maximum of 1000 GP (so the points will be cut only for those exceeding this number, the others will keep what they have on the moment of cut). This is not baseless. We have received numerous offers regarding the reset pf the rating on a regular basis. The resons for it are the "dead souls" in the ranking table; a huge number of Glory Points, preventing new players from entering the rating; the unwillingness of new players to start their journey on such a server. Another change regarding the Glory Points: we are completely removing them from the rewards for the Arenas of Chaos, Discipline, Harmony and Glory. The decision was based after analysing the situation and continuous complaints from the players about unfair abuse of the game mechanics when entering the arenas. We hope that this solution will change the situation on the sieges and more possibilities in game will make the character development more exciting! Everyone has a chance to become the new legend of EuroAion!

maybe we can remove the rank restriction for Major Blessed Augment: Level 2, so that many people will not have to be two-star officers.

They dont think about working people who can do just arenas and try keep 2 star .They also forgot working people give money to server so yes remove gp from arenas but keep for all pve like Bastion or Hyperion ;D Ddos kiling slow server this will kill server complete well good job, maybe its plan open fresh server later

You think of new players, yes it's a fact, they bring you more money than the old ones who only need very little in the shop. I think it's great not to even take the time to do a survey. >>> WHY YOU DONT RESET TEAM RANKING TOO????! <<< Can't get this server to work for more than 2 days without crash or dc. Start with this point before you want to revolutionize the game... This post is very intelligent, announcing that the GPs are no longer to be rushed because they will be reset without giving a date. Suffice to say that the next few days the players will have no real interest in siege, kamar etc.

Ага, а теперь давай посмотрим на это с другой стороны: Вот он я, весь такой красивый, пришел в игру, ну, скажем, пол года назад. Вкачал 65, нашел премейды на все, что хоть какие-то ОСки дает, задонатил на покупку бустов, не сплю ночами, чтобы набить и подняться в ранге. У нас разница в 200.000 ОС. Допустим, я могу в неделю вытаскивать 5000 ОС (что оооочень вряд ли). Если Сенсенман не будет делать ничего (читай, забьет на игру), я догоню ее (его?) за 40 недель (т.е. почти год). Если будет минимально что-то зарабатывать (допустим, 2000 ОС в неделю), то мне потребуется уже полтора года +-. Нет никакого смысла активно участвовать в аренках/осадах/камарах/бастах и твердынях, если ты все равно не сможешь догнать того, кто делает тоже самое, просто раньше начал. А с обрезкой под РЕАЛЬНЫЕ значения - резко появляется смысл фармить все подряд в надежде пошатнуть статус-кво. На сервере не только Сенсенман и Диио играют так-то, все хотят примерить на себя максимальный ранг. На оф вообще ориентироваться не стоит (был там, знаю). Возможно, одна из причин его полумертвого состояния - как раз те, кто нафармил пораньше и сидят на своих местах не слезая.

Привет! Раз вы убрали ОС с Арен, тогда может быть вы это компенсируете увеличением АП и медалек с арены?) Или добавите какую-то доп награду?) Вроде мешка из которого что-то падает.

This change they are planning is probably gonna damage the server more than the DDOSer would ever hope to achieve these past few weeks, its insane. Agreed, its a thing which i forgot to include in my OP since i have no big issue with the timezone but you are right, EuroAion is played by lots of people around the globe not just from EU. Arenas are problematic for sure, but you don't cut off your arm because it hurts, you try to patch it up and heal it. Queue or get an Entry -> Consume ticket. That simple. Almost all the trading is gonna be fixed since most traders don't get matched with their alts from the first try, hence why they spend hours dodging until they get matchfixing done properly. Edit: Also i find it quite funny this thread is not a discussion thread but more like of an announcement of what is going to happen, they are not asking about our opinion or making a poll so people can vote somehow. Quite ironic if you think of it when on the original post you read stuff like

instead of doing GPx3 in arena to boost siege presence, they reset GP to scare away active people. The increase in GP in siege would have had the effect of giving the most present a fair chance. remove GP arenas etc, will have the effect of seeing even more AP trade in siege, and EOB kamar snipe & dodge What about offering rewards to streamers, and ranking of the month so as not to reward the top players...? Reset GP + unstable server = best idea to see the population decrease

i just gonna think that removing GP from arena´s isnt the way to go and actually is 2 steps back and one forth. so yeah. it is pretty much killing many ppl that work and cant go to siege due to that, so they cant hold their ranks -> getting demotivated -> leaving the server. @TheAlmighty

А там кто то живет еще?

Tbh is good change if you can't fix arena dodges,just watch the situation and maybe put in the future some extra reward for arena.

Гениальнейшее решение по аренам аплодирую стоя!!!!!! теперь игроку который живёт +2 +4 от мск вообще нет вариантов ос набрать хотябы на офика. Просто решение года.
