Or we could solve this by making more gates available for players. I know KoV can afford it, but we already have 24/7 gater with a server, and we have no problem using that, and the player that hosting it for KoV is happy doing it, and I was just trying to make a valid point about how flawed the gate system is, and trying to point it out that there is a better way to use the perma gate rather than just have limit 7.
I thought this too, before considering that it is the richest players that are willing to pay 7kk, and therefore the gate system is one means of not only "gold syncing" but a means of targeting the right gold/players, that is the wealthy ones. A better topic would be the reason for "gold syncing"? Is it a realistic threat? Well, sure it is, especially when there are only so many things to purchase in the game. Also, I have to agree with you on the gate system being flawed, but I do lack knowledge as of now, to be sure. For example, if running 50-100 perma gates is too strenuous on the server or staff then I see the reason for capping it at 7 etc... Although, if not, then I think there should be more, for a lower value, and another means of gold syncing should be implemented. Why? Because it is a valuable commodity and limiting to players who can afford 7kkish a month which is inequality to new players and less active ones. Man i really would like a perma gate for 1kk, but wait how long would it take before half or more of them were empty? Gosh wouldn't that be lame, 100 perma gates and 70 of them are empty. Eos, please dont troll us.
No, seriously, guys, if you took a second to consider the goldsync question, perhaps you came across the question of why we need a gold sync. The problem isnt in a means of gold syncing, the problem is in the game design and more critical the specific structure of Demise. Where we have only limited many items to buy, but automated afk money makers(4 accnts per player, typically) we see this need for gold syncing, and now we all debate on the processes of the sync, rather than the causation of it. If we made the perma gates more fluent and less valuable, then we would have more gold issues on the server which is worse. SO , we would need a new means of gold syncing, ex. DSD, but then we would have this same feelings/conversation on that. Fucking illuminati! No, No, natures a bitch, get use to it, understand it, respect it, impact it....idc, but be happy, bros!
Just some ideas, I really dont know for sure, and dont care too much for the topic, hope it helps.
