CO Closing Down please read

[Korvacs]

erm, theres nothing stopping them from shutting CO down, there was never anything stopping them,

they have the right to do anything they want with our accounts, so if they deleted everyones accounts, then no1 plays so they could shut it down

if they were to shut it down they would stop account registration, which has not happened,

they would stop selling dbs, which has not happened, in fact the complete opposite has occured,

so tbh, i think youve got it all wrong, CO makes far more money than you think, concidering they bought the Unreal 3 engine, which costs well over $3 million,

conquer isnt going to close down untill the game built by the Unreal 3 engine is released and well established.

[Huseby]

i hope co dosent close down they sudent got right to. co is the best game tg ever made.

[LiteDash]

Whether they shut down or not is their choice, if they do some ppl will be vex some will rejoice.

I say this becuz lots o ppl quitting nowadays due to the rates o things dropping and due to some o those complaints dats one o de reasons new patch came out with lotto thing.

N e ways, imma still play for a bit but wen drop rates keep going like how they are everyone will quit eventually cuz u wont be able to find n e thing good.

that's my 10c worth

I have been playing all different kinds of online games for the past maybe 8 years. TQ Digital is by far the worst company ever and haven't ever seen worse cusomer service. This game could have been the next rune scape in popualarity if tq wasnt in charge. And yes the game is gonna shut down in the next few months.

Ha....

It will not going to happen...

Is a cash machine for TQ.
They will not shut it down (^^)

DM

not shuttin down maby true. but ive allways thought that tq was a huge conspiricle advertisement testing and youth opinion observing net work for secret advertising organaztions. posible pvpers bein part of it.......

anyways they come to a unavoidable (if u want to be supremely rich and greedy) answer to there lack of billions where they only profit millions.

99 percent or rich kids own 1 dollar they all share basicly. about 1 penny or 1/100 or there fair share ea.
1 percent or rich kids spend up every one else's stolen (apropriated by slavery from ancestors and passed down{ inheritence} money. So, no matter how much 99 pct of all people deserve to be treated fair and equaly it dont maeka shit bit of difference to that 1 pct who can spend a small amount ( comparitivly) on conquer and produce Tq more profits in one week than all us poor folk can produce in 10 years.
THEY WERE allready sold out., they allmost sold out all the way, as soon as u can buy ur levels they will be fully sold out.
TQ just looked at all the poor people and and rich, tne complaints of the poor wanting beter security against aim botters, and the demands of the rich going "i want better aimbot" and realized. FUCK TE POOR!

now remember if u spend more than u can earn u got some one elses money in ur pocket. most rich peopel got rich from there parents. and its an excuse not to share. so im thinking that us 99 pct of people should go um, cough, we just a simple folk and are our parents taught us to rob all rich people by force if we gots to.! cough can help it, was raised taht way.............. a just excuse for such a miserable one as my parents gave me your money so its ok cuz i didnt know better at first and now that i am older and do know people are poor because i am richi dont give ashit fuck them. and thats wat u will get form any rich person in the end. so i say fuck me man, no no no. FUCK U RICHY BASTARDS!

believe it or not its all aobut the benjermins and u keep it in mind and start seeing things come befoer they happen. i knew conquer woudl go fucked and i went on besides. now i jsut prey they have mercy for the poor and get a fre lotto too with less odds or somthing....... getting kids to gamble if first place is jsut fricken shamefull............if not illegal.......

thats right tq claimed our charectors for them selves and we just rent um out, just like a goverment, the can reclaim the property, posesions, and people with OUT paying us compensation any time they want for any reason. tq is not goin down unless u mean moraly.

About adding all these servers and such, the adding of servers is basically just starting another instance of the co application server in their dedicated servers.

The cost to them is the same, opening more servers doesn't really cost them anything extra. It's all on the same IP, same machine, same shared resources.

I would really doubt they are shutting CO down, with the way their staffing looks (Crappy Service - Low Paid Employees) and the fact almost every server in a single group is ONE server, thus costing them little, with all the db buying going on, even before the patch, they'd be making good profit.

[raphey]

To be honest.. I hope they'll stop CO.. I'm VERY addicted and I dont want that anymore x)
So this would be the only way to get me of CO and start working at school:P
but still I've been thinking about this to. I didn't think of WoW ect.
just that they gonna stop ect.
the TQpeople know VERY well that this kind of patch will **** up CO. giving +8 stuff for something that's worth 600k..27 CP. it's really dumb.
I'll just some moments. If they stop I'm not going to buy DBs lol. I'll just try to sell my char for real money whaha. to some noob that doesn't know anything about this.
some1 who can't think for himself.

[howaboutno]

I dunno.. a lot of people seem to think that the non-db-buyers are the only ones pissed off by this..

If almost all the non-db buyers quit.. which i think they are .. that will drastically reduce the playerbase in general. There was a time in this game where non-db buyers, or seldom-db buyers could concievably control a server, with the right team, and proper knowledge of lvling procedures etc.

I think, first off, CO is going to lose a great deal of Non-db buyers.. say 50% of the current CO population?

TQ thinks: Who cares. They don't give us money.


But what about the people that bought all those DBs in the past, to get ahead?
It used to be that you could spend 60dbs and get a 2soc item.. now it seems as if all those hundreds of dbs spent in the past were all wasted, when the lottery gives a total noob with 10dbs, the same stuff you got with 100? With 1000?

A lot of db-buyers are quitting too. Lets assume, for the sake of argument, thats another 10% of the population..

So maybe conquer suddenly has only 40% of its old population. What need do they have for all those servers now? Some of them were fairly empty already.. how much worse will it be, when half, or more of the players quit?
Are they going to start consolidating servers? Remerging the splits?

Those who spend, will hit the roof pretty quickly. With so few adversaries, the game will get boring. The Main GW-ruining hax, (speed, aimbot, ION, walljump, autorev) all remain unpatched.. so GW is going to continue to suck. Its just gonna suck for a lot less people now, because there are a lot less players..

But people play this game (mostly) cuz they love having a massive guild war on the weekends.. what happens to all that now?

I also think 4336 is pretty n00b-unfriendly. As long as conquer is advertised as a free-to-play game, its going to attract a nominally free-to-play audience.

Noobs in a game want to believe that they can become the best, given time and effort.

But now becoming the best is a matter of throwing $ at the game, and with the current situation, it just wont take that long to hit the roof.

130>130>130 should be fast enough with +9, 2gemmed eq, and all those xp balls. After that, what do you do?

A noob who logs in and sees nearly everyone with super 2soc, super gemmed +9 lvl 130 gear, is not gonna be inspired to shell out $ for DBs.

Even though i knew basically that the item mall would mess up the game.. I never foresaw that TQ would include something as world-altering as the lottery.

After 3 years of the STUPIDEST quests, with the LAMEST rewards imaginable.. suddenly, spend 1db on the Lottery, and you walk away with a 2soc elite necky.. and a +8 tao cap... what the hell happened TQ? :no:

[sneta]

GW is pointless on my server.. Ruined with aimbot. -_-

Anyways, I doubt they won't modify the lottery soon to lower the chances, or somewhat. Pretty obvious tons of people quitting, that's still all I see in the message board.. <<

wut u fail ro realize is tq dont care if they hurt db buyers as long as they get only rich people on conquer. the real money maken (thou igot no proof screw u i know its true its only obvious to me) is selling out chats our convorsations to advertisers, sorry i mean rich people conversations. conquer is a way to monitor the activitys of the rich, they dont give a crap how many poor peopel quit cuz they want um out of the way so they dont got to read our non profitable opinions and sort past um. they want the rich money spending, they can ease drop and effectivly brainwash, err i mean advertise better. makes pefect sence to me.

Contrary to popular opinion, the power has Not gone to the DB buyers.
The power has gone to the DBs themselves.

Everything that was made or bought in the past with DBs is now worthless. All work that any player has done to build their character up to this point, was a waste.

1db is all it takes.. check this:

I started out buying one db the night just before the patch.


my first run through the lottery i won 2 more dbs and have since won enough to keep playing 3 chars each day since the patch through the lottery.

in total i have won:
9 dbs
14 exp *****
27 exp pots
34 +1 stones(packs included)
53 met tears(packs included)
elite 1 soc necky
elite 2 soc whip
13 mets
13 +2 stones
5 +3 stones
1 +4 stone
2 +5 stones
1+6 stone
1 dark wizard garment
1 purple phoenix garment
1 blue celestial garment
several amulets which i redeemed for cps
and a class 7 money bag as well as several lower money bags.

All that from 1 db .... O.o

I have gambled for 5 DBs and got good stuff, but not a single DB.

I see many messeges with good wins; however DBs are very very rare.

[wtfworkallready]

money is retarded now check this out, on average i get a plus one stone form lotto. i sell plus one stone for 4 mill to 3 mill. cp go for 1`00k ea, 27 cp cost me 2.7 mill. makinga .3 to 1.3 mill profit on average. this is pure insanity.i got like quitea few mill now but i cant buy any things with silvers but more cps wtf is going on dam it.

EDIT: so now we can all get lots of items lots of silvers and lots of cp, but main cp users get dbs, so lots more silvers, lots more cps lots more items, u can get 500 cp and 100 million and be poor.. end result, i figure soon a eilte 1 soc neclklace will cost 25,000,000,000 silvers or 14 cp. mets will cost 1 million silvers ea or 1 less point den market npc costs u. db will be 999,999,999,999 silvers ea or 221 cp *****. S>item can soem one tell me price to sell? S> cp can soem one giv eme price to sell? T> cp for soal..... good thing ive gone no pk anways or i woudl be getting owned by db buyers untill end of conquer.

''guys if are you not getting through your heads whats going on?!

conquer is closing down soon

TQ made the new patch because without it they cant close down
because it would be illigal for them to do so..

REASON WHY

now that they made the new patch non db buys start quiting and the db buyers start buying more db's then ever now with the lotto thing... now just think.. conquer made this patch to get the last of the money out of you peaple with this lotto so when they qiut they wont lose out that much and the and patch not only gets them last of the more rising money but it just ligalized them to shut down the game without them getting a law suit.. because think.. you cant disband a guild if theres say 20 peaple in it and its to big of a number of members.. so the system wont let you to disband it .. you got to kick some members off then you can disband the guild.. you understand were im going with this

TQ is using the same trick there drawing in the DB buyers to buy super amount of db's with this +8 2 soc advertisment... there making last of the money ... and while the peaple who dont buy DB's quit.. the nunmber on the servers are getting smaller so its like a giuld .. when it reaches the right amount... you can disband it in a legal way.. in TQ's case close down CO ''



now i found this on the forums 1 thing is wrong .. is that it TQ can close anything down and not get a law suit because when you sighed the agreement at the '' new account creat'' it said that TQ owns your char and no matter if you buy db's they can delet your char at ther will

but i do think that thats what TQ is doing ther gunna finish up the end sale on CO and close it and fofus on EO because chinses servers are P2P and why would TQ give us what the chinses has to pay for .. they give us it for free .. why ? .. last minute sale

read the eula for conquer. they can change, amend, deny service and just basicly end the game without notification. so spare me they aren't going to stop the game they got the perfect cash cow till they unveil their alpha project that tq capcom and bioware have been so hush hush about. man get a life. this is what you'll find out the next E3 show this spring will tell you what tq has been up to. as far as them ending the game they could end the game any time before the patch. as i said read the eula and you'll realize your arguments like your thinking is flawed.
