To Glob of Nooboplasm: in a rollback, everything is reset to it's previous state before the server error. That is to say, anyone who just bought items will lose them, all characters and accounts will be reset *as though the error had never occured*.

But I was wondering, will the guild ladder be affected by this update? (I suspect it will, but my guild's rating went up by around 100 points before the update :-/)

We get penalized for Anet's screw ups, arent we all used to this already? *cough*nerf bat*cough*

Ok people stop bitching about everytinhg. Shit happenns, it is a fact of life. If you can't deal with it, it's your problem, no one else's. All I can think of now is "i wanna lvl my new ele, and i hope me finishing seaboard mission will still be there." But this is the first time sicne the game's release that there has been a major technical problems. If you complain this much about this, go and try World of Warcraft. I palyed for about a week and there were constant problems with about half servers, and there was server lag pretty much everywhere (no, not my computer, the server itself). Besides, this game is free, you only pay once when you buy it. You don't like it, go to anotehr game and leave us that like it to enjoy the game.

You sure about that? My team won 26 games in a row in TA in the hour or so before the crash. Thats around 10k faction.

You reckon that faction is still gonna be there?

I was joking. Even if they didnt do a rollback I would still play because if people baught them for that much, they would sell them for that much. If you dont have a sense of humor just ignore my last couple posts. I put my 15 dollah down on factions, its too late to quit now.

DJ Josh · Mar 14, 2006, 01:22 AM // 01:22

i never called anyone disgusting,but as gaile said it should make you think "hold up that can't be right".also gaile just admitted that the first reset was a mistake so stop trying to use that as an excuse.and thank you gaile for clarifying why there was no rollback the first time.i did find a perfect req 8 fire wand but it wouldn't have replaced my rago staff so no loss there and i can go get my elites again and shout at the hench even more for aggroing to many blessed griffons at once.i also have nothing better to do in gw till factions event anyway but still feel sorry for those who thought they had overcome a real obstacle only to find they must do it again.

p.s. nice to see so many honest people who did buy stuff,and who could have made a fortune from this error,happy to give everything back with the rollback.

deathdela · Mar 14, 2006, 01:23 AM // 01:23

Everything will be affected what you did within that hour or so gvg, fame, drops, buys etc.

Retribution X · Mar 14, 2006, 01:23 AM // 01:23

They are moving the game, back a few hours, before the glitch happened!

So, the people get their cash back, and the items are gone, and the price has returned to normal!

It's EXACTLY what it would be at ~ 1:00 PM PST.

Nobody has the shards they bought at 250 gold, nothing that was purchased after that time.

The end of our nice little cute story!

Yes that is what makes worrying about the "economy" even more laughable.

I layed the game A LOT that is why I have the stuff I have. From drops mostly, some from stuff I have sold. I didn't intend to have so much stuff it happens when you play the game a lot. I don't/didn't farm really, I just played the game. BAck in the beginning you could do UW or FOW and get really decent drops, then all of a sudden nerf, nerf. nerf. The solo builds just to get the same drops you got as a team, then nerf, nerf, nerf.

The it was helping people out who were new, or needed to do a tough mission. The it was not paying at all.

Having "wealth" means nothing in this game IMO. But it is a byproduct, or WAS a by product of PLAYING the game. Since most people get run everywhere, and all the drop spots have been nerfed into oblivion that isn't the case. BUt until I see something worth trading those materials for, I am stuck with them.

If the new armor sucks or doesn't require ectos or shards, you will probably see a drop in prices as I sell what I can to the merchant before I max out my bank again.

Marcus Scaurus · Mar 14, 2006, 01:25 AM // 01:25

Just my two cents, but this game is FREE TO PLAY!!!!!!! Don't complain because once in a great while something goes wrong. I have WoW and it crashes more than ANET and thats a pay site.

:) MY OOPSIE

there are so many serious complaints i missed yours as not.

again my oopsie on that

cheers

Tyrent Frath · Mar 14, 2006, 01:25 AM // 01:25

ok...here's the way i see it.

for the people who made an amazing deal...guess what...you get your item back and can sell it again.

for the people who had an amazing drop...i truly feel bad for you...but the rollback is completely justified for the third group...

the people who bought up everything at 250g.

its easy as that...we cant sacrifice the total economy in-game because of a couple of fame gained, a few dozen great drops, or a couple hundred people who finally managed ThK.

Basically...if you did it before...youll be able to do it again...if you lost a drop...you have a better one coming to you.

understand why a-net needs to do the rollback...and deal with it.

X Drummer X · Mar 14, 2006, 01:25 AM // 01:25

I lost victos axe.. I got from drop on top of it. :\.. Only 30k but still something

Mystic Memory · Mar 14, 2006, 01:26 AM // 01:26

I don't think they had any other option...

Amok · Mar 14, 2006, 01:26 AM // 01:26

Does it really matter if you lost some fame/a nice gold item/a completed mission etc etc? Everyone else lost whatever they did in the last hour before the reset too. Don't forget that this is just a game, none of it matters out in the real world.
I can understand a little frustration, but those of you having murderous fits of rage really need to step back and breathe some fresh air.

Misz_Piggie · Mar 14, 2006, 01:26 AM // 01:26

*if Gaile is still reading this topic* anyway, i was wondering, what kind of error could of caused the whole market to crash? someone messin around with npcs? but yeah, now i need to get back my 15^50 chaos axe. :[

This is so unfair to the players who worked hard, cant they just take the high end stuff and put that at the average price? and reset the rest? I mean come on, Superior Vigor, Monk Runes, Superior Absorb, Ecto, Shards, Rubys and Saphires, and black dyes I wish they would reset others and put prices back to the average prices. Damage has been done though.

They should view the logs and see who bought gobs of stuff and take it all back and return the gold spent.

Please learn what a rollback is before carrying on.
