so it's up on the atlantica site (particularly here) that ato has new features:

*the automove function is now permanent

*everyone, regardless of level, will receive a stamina point for every 10minutes without a battle.

 

so it got me wondering if they're pretty good new features or does it make atlantica online less of a challenge considering that one can already automove to a location at ease?

because i'm lazy, i'm voting that the new features are good ones. haha.

I think it's stupid.  The stamina system used to DO something (limit daily advancement), now it rewards people who AFK all day long?  Why?

Also, they should SELL automove licenses, not give it away for free.  It's a perfect pay item since nobody NEEDS it but it is nice to have.

I don't want them to give me so much that they go out of business.

I still think they should bring the stamina system the way it was back in the closed betas. You got 0 exp and no items for 0 stamina, that is. The good side of this change is that the hardcore players just might join, and its a damned gamble. I'm in it for the auto-move, especially if the teleports aren't for free.

Stamina doesn't bug me either way, I doubt I'll play enough to use up 120 stamina in an entire day, so I don't see how the change is no big deal (and I do not subscribe to the "If I don't benefit you can't either" mentality and shout it down).

The automove is nice. It's a theme park game and it just lets you enjoy the ride instead of having to wander through the zones and different rooms of dungeons and memorize where people are standing. Plus, I can set it to automove and than walk away, or do some chatting, or manage my inventory, or lots of other things.
