Have not played yet cus of security concerns but registered and checked out forums. My question is why do you have % luck chance upgrade system with chance to downgrade. Your motto says we fix what others destroyed but this is worse than original system in darkorbit which upgrades with 100% success and no chance to downgrade (this is literally the worst thing you can implement as well as item destruction or locking it).
You also say no p2w but then you introduce even more premium gameplay benefits than in normal game with more chance to gain pets, instead of giving those premium benefits to everyone and keeping it only to quality of life and cosmetics only.
From what I see there is potential but I'm just puzzled why some decisions were made.
Why add some extra credit ammo that shortens range, increases consumption of ammo on top of costing even more?? Just make x2 for credits. You're free to make game like you want but you're still keeping og darkorbit costs and currency of things.
This is very minor but why stuff on auction has uri instabuy price if there's no instabuy option? And lots of stuff like that, it makes this server seem as unprofessional, amateurish, childlish. Even faq on forum has thread about 2nd and 3rd pet but it doesn't say how to get them and it has random out of nowhere info about easter egg when flying out of map.
I'd really like to check out this server with my friend to just do some accelerated growth pve but as I said I can't because security yeah. I need transparency. Overall server seems to be cool but it could be so much better man! I wish you very best and I hope you can address my concerns.

I understand your security concerns, but i wont open-source anything of PG. If you dont trust the PG Client, you might be able to get a old maxthon browser and use this to play PG. Or i believe here in EPVP are some open source browsers which you can also use to play PG.
Lot of players use different stuff than the PG Client to play PG, which im perfectly fine with.
I try todo stuff different on PG. It doesn't necessarily mean it makes it easier like that upgrade-failes can downgrade the item. Makes just sense for me to allow downgrades aswell when you fail.
I believe PG is not p2w, if you believe PG is p2w than thats your opinion which is perfectly fine and with that you need to decided if you want to play or not, if you want to get premium or not, etc.
Imagine i would need to justify any decision i make, that would make me insane. Some stuff also just got made without any reason, but rather because I just wanted it like that.
The auction instabuy is just some old stuff i left which i could remove, but it doesn't hurt anyone, so it just stays there.
How to get multiple pets is completely secret and i cannot give you any information about that.
"Accelerated growth" is not really what PG is about. This is a longterm server where you need to invest lots of time to get good equipment, so maybe PG is just not the server for you.
