Foxtrotmikelima Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 I recently hit level 25 legacy. This requires, largely, farming the following amount of legacy points: 244,500 x 25 = 6,112,500 Where's my reward. Implementing something which is pointless and saying "it will be implemented later" is poor form in my honest opinion. I'd rather the legacy system be disabled because when it goes live, I'm going to have a large advantage over everyone because of my legacy level. PS: for level 25 legacy I'd like all my alts to start with the title "Servent of Clarissa" [main char name] so much for positive criticism.

LilSaihah Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 It was not Bioware's intention to put out an incomplete game. EA bullied them into releasing the game in time for Chri$tma$. Considering how much money and time has been backing Bioware I don't think it's unreasonable for EA to think the game would be done by now. The guy grinded his life away on a system he knew to be incomplete.. Sympathy = zero. I'm at legacy level 7 by just goofing around. They didn't even bother to put in a quadratic for the amount of experience you require- it's 240000+1000(l. level). There's "this is an incomplete system, we'll put more stuff out" and there's "this is a nothing system, grind it so we can make the rewards unrealistic for any normal human being"- There will be super awesome epic rewards for Cranberries that the "casual" base that this game "caters to" will never be able to achieve. 3 years was no where near enough time to have everything at 100%, welcome to MMO world. 10 years wouldn't have been enough. They have done an outstanding job with the time they had. I could come up with a better GTN in 5 minutes. That's not "this is something we added at the last second", it's "this is something we had every intent to include on the game's release" and they didn't take a day out of three years to work out a design that would actually work.

Quit being a hyperbolic ninny, the GTN is perfectly utilitarian, all they need to do is add a global search bar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilSaihah Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 (edited) Quit being a hyperbolic ninny, the GTN is perfectly utilitarian, all they need to do is add a global search bar The GTN makes me want to brutally murder small animals. It seems designed to get in my way when I try to post or buy items. The only way it could be more obtuse is if it explicitly refused to buy/sell items.

boobaffet Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 The legacy system was never intended on launch, we are just able to get rank now since if they did not implemented that at lauch people who leveled a lot would be mad. And this thread is why you dont implement something before its done, even when it make sense to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

werehusky Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Who else thinks legacy will probably never even amount to anything? Every MMO has had some big idea left in after beta only to be forgotten later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khryn Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 Let's see here. You have not just one, but TWO level 50's? Plus you've maxed out your Crafting.. on both? Plus you had time to grind to level 25 legacy? I'm gonna tell you now that you are going to be disappointed in anything this game can give you. Most people don't even have ONE level 50, much less two. The time you've invested already into this game must be MASSIVE. What is your /played?!!

Talahar Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 I'm glad the legacy levelling is already in, so even if the system is pretty much just an empty shellwith a last name attached to itso far, we all already accumulate legacy XP for when the system gets fleshed out.

CandiMynx Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 and you wonder why people say your mmo is bad this would not fly in any other genre of game. why should it fly here? this game has been in development for three years and they have released with so many bugs, bad design ideas, incomplete systems and a terribly optimised engine that i would forgive somebody for thinking that the game was rushed out the door. FYI, people release games that are in development for longer than three years with just as many (and sometimes more!) bugs. It's hardly a rare occurrence. It doesn't make it okay, but it does make it harder and harder to not be jaded about releases by major software companies. Long live the indie games! xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deluged Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 What's a legacy, and how do you get points for it? Haha, I'm serious. I'm a very casual player with a lv 13 shadow as a main. I've been playing since early access. I did have another character in the high teens..ive heard about legacy this and legacy that, but never bothered to find out about it.

Once you finish the first act, you will unlock the legacy system and be able to earn legacy experience which is shared across all characters on the server. It currently does nothing.

Cybrdroyd Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 hey guysssssss it has nothing to do with the fact that this person has grinded out 25 levels of legacy and everything to do with the fact that bioware put out an incomplete system So has every other mmo ever made thats worth mentioning, namely WoW, Everquest 1 and 2, LotRO, Star Wars Galaxies, Eve Online... All of these mmo's were released with...wait for it... BUGS UP THE ***!!! So quit yer whining, and know that those of us who have been around mmo's long enough to know that every launch has tons of problems, are shaking our heads at all you pathetic whining weasels that think a product as complex as as an mmo has to be perfect for it to be any good. 2 years from now when this game is number one and WoW is a distant memory, guess what, there will still be whiners trolling the forums because they mailed a crafted item to an alt and it got lost. It happens. Get over it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain_Failure Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 So OP ground out XP in a system that is well known for not being fully implemented yet and is upset that they didn't get anything from it. Right, good to know they're not worth taking seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
