Request Before Patch hits

General Discussion Started Last reply 17 posts
Please change the name from "Joyful Birthday Pack" to "Awful Birthday Pack" before the patch is applied.

From patch notes:

You have a new Joyful Birthday Pack that you can get on your character's birthday.
- When you open the Joyful Birthday Pack you received by mail after 4/22 (Wed), you can get a Happy Birthday Potion and a Birthday Hat.
- A Happy Birthday Potion recovers 3/4 of Vitality gauge.




Quite lame 3/4 of vit bar vs 3*4h vit
You get 10 Happy Birthday Potions. I will edit it in the patch notes to clear up confusion.
This does not change a thing... With current vitality drain rates, these 10 potions will run out in 10 min. Just compare with current 12 hours of vitality.
Well, all good comes to an end sometimes...

Exactly. You'll need to buy vitality maintaining pots for them to be of any use. Only encourages spending more dollars for ncoins. :(
Cmon, what's so bad about giving the players 12hrs of free vitality once a year?

This is like total abomination.
who cares about vitality you spend most of your week without it so why moan about it now lol

Juji, I am not the complainer type. I like this game. I ve been here for almost 9 years now; I would have been for 11 years if I had been able to.

I still made this post because once a year I felt I was getting something of worth and now it is been taken away. I still think that 10 of those are crap. I eat a full vit bar in less than 10 minutes if slowly xping. You are taking away 10 something hours of vit from us.

Events used to be like that. I felt I was getting something of worth. Then they became a business where we get something not so good and if we spent ncoin we get something better. I understand the f2p model but geez, one lil thing once a year is much to ask? Would NCSoft reconsider about this ?

/end rant
Yeah... 10 potions? Please. ANY decent AOE pull area every one of those potions is gone before any pull is done. So that's roughly what, 10, 12 minutes of vit XP? Assuming you can spam the pots back to back?

Even dropping the reward to one 4 hour pot is better than all 10 pots by a huge degree. There isn't even a remote comparison between the two.

This is an absolute blatant and completely unacceptable attempt to push people to buy vitality maintaining potions. Unless that birthday hat comes with 12+ hours of vitality maintaining buffs with it.

There was nothing wrong with the old bday pots. You get them once a year and once they are gone, they are gone. Spare us your ncoin greed and revert these back to the old pots.

If nobody cares, why take it away to begin with? NCsoft made it an issue.
that really is a pretty sad move...
Might be better to remove the pack at all if you gonna give that kind of presents!
Honestly i prefer not receiving more garbage. (I already have enough of it in my wh)

I am a frequent NCoin buyer and even I am getting really tired of this kind of stuff, you need to stop making the game less enjoyable especially for the people that don't buy coins, because thats the majority.. and I want more people to stay and play because I need parties..

Because check it out, if I don't have people to party with I am not having fun, I am not having fun I am not buying coins and I am leaving and you are losing a paying customer.. let the f2pers enjoy the game too.

You are totally right about this.
