Feather is up to the same old shit at Firefall...

http://forums.firefallthegame.com/community/threads/glider-pads-red-bean-rewards...

The short version:

1) He destroyed the main reason people had bought the previous glider pads by putting them all on the same cooldown.  Sound familiar?

2) The new wings he added are called "Celestial".  Sound familiar?

3) He's still the same disloyal, arrogant ass to the current player base:

"We did not add any unique attributes to gliders that were billed as 'exclusive' at any point in the past: It would not be fair to future players to provide mechanical (non-cosmetic) bonuses for owning items that players will never be able to acquire after the game's launch."

He's really something.

Quote:
I would love the Celestial Wings but no chance I'm going to try my luck over and over again with gold tokens... Will this be for sale for red beans also?


Quote:
So I buy a red bean pack, and then i have to GAMBLE for anything of worth with a vending machine? Sounds like another was to screw us, instead of the guaranteed rewards.


Sounds like he's making THE RANDOM over there as well.

Glad he's gone from DDO.

Sorry to see he's assing things up for other people.

There are already several other games who use gamble mechanics to make money. Buy a 'box of uberness' to have a chance at getting very rare items, 99% of the time you get something you wouldn't have spend real money on.

So it's not feather alone that is trying to make much profit with such mechanics.

I wonder that such mechanics are not forcing the game to make sure you are at legal age(18-21+) in your country. Probably politicans and lawyers still busy with fighting against illegal music and video downloads... Cheesy

There is a guy named Stephiroth on that thread that sounds a lot like the Sephiroth(sp?) that posted on ddo forums and was a total jackass.  Makes me wonder if its the same guy or the name attracts the same type of people. 

And yeah nice one Feather, nice to see you being good at your job still.

Check The Vault Archives ( Drama Initiative and Vault of Drama ) for everything there is to known about Sephiroth ( and the guild that goes with him ).

Yeah, I can't lay the gambling tokens at his feet, so didn't mention it.  They had those in the game long before he got here.

However, if I'm understanding it correctly, one *new* thing is that all new weapons are going to have one random, unchangeable bonus stat (prefix).  I think this even extends to crafted ones.  I have yet to craft under the new system, and even if this is true, I can't (yet) tie this directly to him, but it does have a feathery stink to it.

I'd give a link to that, but I'm too lazy to find the thread, and I doubt anyone here gives enough of a crap anyway.  It's just good riddance to bad garbage from a DDO player's perspective.

they should be warned that Plume de Soleil Ghostbanned our loot before jumping ship, and the damage he made hasn't been fully repaired yet.

That would be polite to the players, wouldn't it?

Where was FoS before his time at Turbine?

One thing for everyone who is a "skeptic" on this issue: Insurance companies are basing their underwriting on the assumption that it is real. They are refusing to write policies on homes that are likely to be in danger from rising seas 20 years from now, even though the resale rate of the homes is so high that they could keep writing policies for another 10 years and still not have to pay out on 1 policy in 5, but that would be irresponsible. Unethical, as well, but that's never stopped anyone before.

It is fairly natural to assume that the fair price for the pot is the fair value of the resources I needed to make the pot plus the fair value of my labor.

Sephiroth is a character in Final Fantasy.  I've seen it used in toons or forum names with several different people in DDO.
