    Word of caution to anyone thinking about purchasing 

    Gamigo migrated all Trion hosted NA games including ArcheAge to a new datacenter earlier this week. 

    Since the migration AA servers have been having a ton of issues from missing NPCs, to game features not working to extreme lag - etc... a bunch of new problems since the migration. 

    The AA unchained will be hosted out of the new datacenter as well - so buyer beware

    Gamigo. Enough Said. Should immediately raise a red flag! Avoid at all costs!

    Paid for by all of us who bought “founders packs” years ago during LAUNCH. 

    These guys can kiss my ass.

    This is the new FAD.... put "Unchained " at end of existing / failling /cashshop styled game, you can then sell pre-release packs to the same poeple that probably bought the original games pre-release.

    So with that inmind i decided to play a little game i call 'unchained' (you see what i did there)

    So we have fav movie

    Django unchained unchained this is a story about how Slave who is a bounty hunter, gets bounty hunted himself by a chained up chain gang .

    Sport

    Football Unchained (us or uk) this is a sport where the name of the game is to be shit. Last years winners in the UK where Cardiff who absolutely blew the premiership away.

    Finally

    Game

    We have WoW Unchained,

    This is a new game where you get to go around an large pretend world on foot, and kill lots of other players and NPCs it is known to be a slow grind, they reckon it will be around for  years to come but might out live its real lifespan... 

    oh wait.......

    but im sure you get my jist

    EVERYONE should boycott any game that ends with unchained.

    This post is all my opinion, but I welcome debate on anything i have put, however, personal slander / name calling belongs in game where of course you're welcome to call me names im often found lounging about in EvE online.

    They should use "Make Archeage Great Again!" for their marketing. That whole "great again" thing seems to work on a lot of people.

    If this was a trustworthy company I would already have the founders pack and have a chunk of vacation time set aside for days 1 and 2.

    It's gamigo however, so I don't, and I won't.

    Funny, if Trion had made a server like this at the onset of the game, it would probably still own AA. The game at it's core is really good, the poop soup is all in the monetization

    People are desperate unfortunately. A lot of these crowdfunded mmorpgs are being looked at with a slant on the spectrum while others from 'official' sources are either getting delayed/cancelled/re-released. We live in a 2 sided era where profit stems from either twitch style games or re-released titles. Innovation is honestly dead simply because the profit isn't worth the investment to AAA companies.

    Going to be picking up the Archeum pack for myself and probably a few Silver packs for alts and some friends if they care to tag along.

    Even if I/we only get a few months out of this, money well spent. Nothing out or coming out anywhere in the near future is going to be close to AA.

    Would have been great if the $150 that I spent on the alpha years ago was worthwhile in some way, but I had my fun back then and will probably sell that account off now.

    Gamigo is the old Aeria Games, known for p2w and where most games go to get milked one last time before they die. I wouldn't trust a word these sleazeballs say.
  • RenoakuRenoaku Member EpicPosts: 3,157
    Dear God what are they doing.

    - Can't transfer my previous cosmetic collections of like every costume int the game to the new game.
    - Can't transfer my cash shop farms or anything to new game.
    - Previously purchased founders packs, and Arheum packs (Can't get free founders packs for same game with different rule sets.)
    - Game won't be like (Black Desert) with cosmetic storage, and free customization as a paid member.

    Game will be P2E, or P2W, and previous players are screwed yet again, pus server seperation between new players on a non P2W and older players eventually one will be killed off likely the P2W users will get completely screwed and offered a free game in the end.

    Just look at TERA / Enmasse spent a lot of money in one of their F2P games it closes down, no free refunds not even 50% of credits towards playing any other title lol, totally can't trust this bullshit.

    If they plan it right without the p2w bullshit it will be allright.
    Still better than Astellia, soon the successor of Mess Online, possibly cheaper also. I still hate Archeage tho.

    The biggest p2w concern that there is with this is gamigo are allowing upto 3 accounts per person which means if the average joe wants to be on a level playing field with other people you'll need to buy 3 accounts also due to the way the systems work in-game. They dont call it AltAge for nothing.
