All I can see people doing is ''OMG THIS IS AN AMAZING IDEA''

Then a couple weeks later ''Wow....this sucks...why the fuck did I do this?''

Think about it, you are playing the same char all over again from level 1 with your materials 0'd and even worse experience multiplier. Surely this should be all the other way round?

Think of it like a New Game+ mode in some games, Tales of Symphonia for example. You get to keep all your used Ex-Gems, all your titles and everything else. You even get the option to have your exp x2 or x10.

I didn't say x1 exp is hard, do you really think scht would be so successful if x1 exp was hard?

Yes it is optional, but why would we do it for unconfirmed shiny things. Going by the prize lists that were for the MAS event it probably wont be worth it.

One of the biggest draws for this server, at least it was for me last February, is the experience multiplier.

I really don't see many smart (eden standards) people doing this...

Well it would seem Lee is hell bent on ruining this thread.

All items are unequipped on ranking up.
The skins are placed in a spare slot but it also allows us to create AFP for skinners to import. I really don't see why it's a problem.

I've had enough. You think its rather intelligent. End of. I don't want to see any more posts like it.

There's no point in suggesting anything, I have done this multiple times in the past with a reply saying ''I'll get around to it''

I gave up on playing on this server a very long time ago with that being one of the reasons.

I'm the only one with these opinions, yes probably. Everyone else is just happy to get something, no matter how good or bad it is.

opinions, not a lot you can do about them mein fuhrer.

Did I say it was a problem? it just looked odd as hell when i saw it when adding to the index works anyway. I guess it's sega's fault update = full ep4 texture replace for no reason what so fucking ever yet they made most of the rest of the game modular enough using data and data.gsl to patch.

Honest question now:

If you had given the players the choice of ranking down to lvl 1, 3 times for a total of 600 level
or
extended or the level table to say 600 or so (obviously they kept their stats and equipment as is but exp can easily scale in a new table to reflect this).

Which option do you honestly think they'd have chosen. I'm only interested in tofu's answer just a fyi.

To try for something better/worth doing for the people that do play here. People put a lot of time into their characters for a reason. It shouldn't be all stripped like this.
