hello,
I really think some of the people here a complecating things soo much, there are 2 types of problems when it comes with Online games...
1- The game it self
2- Playing it online
****
game bugs has nothing to do with this emergency maintenance.
i've been playing the game for almost a month now... i think they are doing an amazing job handling every little details, japanese ppl think about little things more than they think about God.
and this is why i think they are really really lost, the game is just so mixed up. you lvl something you found out it's not worth it, many jobs, many spells, many equipments, many items, many mission,many quests.... everything is just alot and so spesific. and you have to pick.
After picking what you need, here comes money....
if you want to fish, you have to see the guy's mom (who brought this idea up) looking at the moon btween 4-5 and 17-18 if she is there btween these giving hours but it's no moon you suck fishing, if you want to synth. you have to see his mom scratching with a crystal in a losy dark day...
ok lets lvl a thief... BOOOM!!! IT SUCKS AT EARLY lvls... it takes one day to lvl it to 7, so little money... THEY SHOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS BEFORE FIXING THE SERVERS.
the most sucking thing i've ever seen in this game is the shops
(all of us know the reasons) THEY SUCK, THEY SUCK "period"
and all of this just to make sure we are stuck in this for ages... DAMN IT trying to lvl up a single guild skill to 15 takes like 2 damn weeks.
***************************************************************
I dont think handling thousands of ppl at one moment is an easy job. they are doing GREAT with the online part.
anything else is just amazing "period"
