and what about the CS power ?? thats just got forgotten ? ... many player .. i think over 60 % says that the CS is totally overpowered and Ps is totally underpowered ... thats not fixed ? ... hmm Pen System : very very good in my oppinion, i hope all things get a bit cheaper and you can get money quicklyer

Caliostro wrote:Ok 2 things that are pretty bad:

1 - Changing from hours to DAYS, that actually is worse... Much... Seriously, who had that "idea"? Hours only count as you play, days count regardless. So if I buy an item, and can't play for the rest of the day, all that time is gone... Change it back...
2 - Fumbi items for sale... Broken much? Also it should prove to be less profitable, as before people had to buy AP, to buy items with PEN, to gamble and MAYBE win something... Lottery system.

Oh and, I will stop playing immediately if you removed "permanent" items.

That said, I am extremely glad the repair costs have been downed... So... Meh.


i mean the from hours to days ... why ? the 5 houres you just played .. but the 30 days ... you are in hollidays 14 days and than haha you just have 16 days left ... i just hope that the days also just count if you play :)

I was so sure that they'll update the cash shop when there's an update and leave out content update. This kinda shows how much Alaplaya wants to get more money.


thats a good question : why the things whith that they can make money comes so quick ? and some other things, gamefixes , anti-lag arrangements , Weapon fixes like the fiering models ( the gunts everytime shoots in the same order ) .... i dont want to say that alaplaya is just hunting after money or how we germans says "geldgeil" ... but money is the only thing with that you can survive ....

many friendly greetings from germany

A couple of questions regarding the change of items. For one, is the time for the time (now ''day' ) items still going to go down only when you play, or will it go down based on actual time? Also, will permanent equips still exist that will never go down aside from repair costs?

i loved - notice how i use past tense- S4 because i could play when i want and not have to worry about my guns or items being gone when i come back to play. Now i cant say that anymore because the hour system which was lovely is now gone to days. I play other games with day limits and i absolutely hate it. I dont have the time to play all the time, so i always buy 1 day stuff but it just wastes my money to get one day stuff when i rather get hour stuff that only count against you when you ACTUALLY USE them.

With S4 going from hours -> days just makes things worse for me. What will happen to my tortorial guns that still have 5 hours so so?? Will i be able to come back one day and magically see every single weapon and skill from my inventory GONE!?
If that is the case i will just quit then and there. Why must i spend massive amounts of pen ( even though the pen system is getting revamped) on one day items when do not have the time to play every single day to get the most out of the hour weapons? Now i probably wont play S4 at all now because if i buy a gun what is the point? I will only be playing for a day so just buy a one day weapon right? Wrong, because i might play today and and want to play again 5 days later. Why pay MORE PEN for longer periods when it was perfectly find by hours.

Then again this might not apply to permenant items but if it does i dont think anyone will be seeing me in game.

I understand that day things do have its pros to it but the cons to it for me i have bad experiences with it and have no plans of liking it.

Lets just hope all my tutorial weapons are not all gone by the next time i play same with skills which make the bulk of my inventory.

And on a side note how will it work for permenant items, are we no longer allowed to buy them permenantly???? or it it just more buy by day junk.

*Sorry for the negative tone its just that hours in my opinion was so much better and in other games i played buy by day completely ruins the game no matter how good or godly the game is. For me looks like S4 has been ruined by the days no matter how good of a game i deem it to be. This rant some might call might be premature due to that the patch isnt even out yet but the idea of days in a great game like S4 is just going to ruin it in my eyes and possibly prevent me from playing it again*

1. From my understanding, the item time will go down regardless if you're online or not.

2. The items that are currently ingame now that are permanent are not going anywhere so don't worry. The Fumbi items that you can buy in the update are the only ones that will be time limited and can only be bought with AP.

Okay, so I'm assuming this means you can still buy permanent items after the patch, and that the change to days is only effecting the hour-based items?

If the items are by days now instead of hours Its just to make you buy AP, which is retarded.

Let me try to clear this up:

Okay, the time limit on items is regarding to AP items. Instead of the 30 playing hours they can be bought for either 7, 15, or 30 days. The items that you buy with PEN are not....I repeat......ARE NOT affected by the time based system. Items bought with PEN are not affected with the time limit like the AP items (Trial items will still have the 5hr player time limit on them as usual).

I will say that it would be a dumb move if we did put a time limit on "ALL" items like in some other game I can mention.....*COUGH*COMBAT ARMS*COUTH*...... :?
