well i can truelyy say this games ran its course ...it feels like a chore to play it ..its boaring same same evyrday..and now the update is late...you get money off us early to help with the development of game ..when i we gonna get an update on time never mind early...i look at other online rpgs and ther leaps and bounds above you ...i wonder how many 1 month subscribers will come back or is that why you held back update so they only get few days to play it then feel they have to pay again.... like my account finishes 20th december is december patch comin out on the 19th december;) but also what about the size of december patch with all you promise your doin it meens itl be a big en...so what about people on 56k modems you gonna send em a cd cover of it or do they have to download it...i belive you all should have had it planed b4 payments to you were made not get payments to give you the meens to think up the ideas.........sort it soon mir or youll lose all your 1 month and 3 month subscribers ...i wish id have just payed 1 month now but im stuck here for 3 months.....( very very very board taoist of the same lvl for last 5 days cause lvlins boarin) |

I agree to I take it the Korean server already have the oct patch? How much more testing to they need to do or are they behind schedule? This need to speed up , maybe if they gaves us a patch early or a few ickle 1's to keep us intrested. The hugh gaps between updates are driving peeps away this delay is'nt summet we wanna hear.In-Game Jim0x lvl 28 warrior Discovery lvl 16 wiz <--n00bie

Instead of a fully working patch released on 13th you'd rather have a patch with bugs in it released on the 10th? It's not like there's a 4 week delay in the release. It's only 3 days and if it wasn't needed they wouldn't have delayed it.The patch doesn't only need translation it also has to be re-coded. So far the patches that have been released have always worked flawless. There are plenty of games out there where they release patches that don't even install. Offcourse they wanted to release it the 10th, but if you can't understand that it has to be tested before they release it your better off playing a console. /Tricky ~{GameMasters}~Trickster Fear my superhen. |

All i said was i hope there is a good excuse i mean the up-date has been post-poned umm.... *counts on fingers* twice now? ok fair enough if there are still bugs in it i'd hate WEMADE to pull a microsoft on us but still its thrown my 1 week celebrations out of sink! now i'l have to remeber them as the 1 week and 3 days celebrations to the up-date which would break my heartHere Come The Flames... |

thats not the point m8 ...this 3 day delay is 3 days less play testing for people who have subscribed for 1 month ....and i remeber you release first patch with bugs in it so dunno what your on about there...and we aint got this patch yet so whats to say it wont be bug ridden.....and the issue of cd issuing for people on 56k you gonna adress or reply to that? or just say GMs DONT release patches on time so dont ask:P allthough i know your not games makers your just there puppets

Supernova the question is very simple... We decided to push a little the release since we got the experience from the first patch... Last time we released the patch without any internal test (I mean other test than developer one) and we had the server locked on 700 users, sabuk siege not working and other stuff...This time we decided to work a little on our internal test server to AVOID any additional problem on the game. We do not like to push over the release, but there was a delay in the development. Differently from what many think, korean version and english version are really different and they need a separate coding.. not only a "straight" translation. This is why it takes so long between korean release and our release. We delayed 3 days the release to offer you all a better patch, not for others, strange reasons.

Flawless for you maybe. I seem to remember some people being unable to use the Yeti-blacksmith in Bichon for ages  Also, recoding? I was under the impression that my computer running a windows based OS is the same as a Korean Computer running the same OS family. The servers should be the same too, surely? It would be madness to have Wondows 2000 server on one an RedHat Linux on the others? ----------------------- Kristel clear! Topic summery on page 17 folks :) hehe |

zzzZZZZZzzzz IM BORED OF MIR ASWELL.Ok, its addictive and rewarding in the early stages of the game, each lvl offers quite a few new things and lvling is quick and fun. Now you can spend 2 weeks lvling a few lvls up and get nothing. And then when you do lvl up but if u like me u have rareish items so the new stuff available is worse than ya rare stuff so you still get nothing..... I'm also sick of excuses from the GM's, yes u delayed the patch to make it better for us and bug free but u DELAYED THE PATCH. I think we want more than a little "sorry for the inconvenience" msg we want responce from the GM's. Ever since the start of the game the GM's have realised out lust for the game and played on it. If there were 500 people wanting to play it then maybe you would have responded to more emails but since it was in big demand u stayed stumm. Even a nice detailed FAQ or new update information would be nice but nope. This just makes me think you arnt working as hard as you could be or you are trying to keep custom by offering things at deadlines that cant be met, either way its not on. I thought the jerky 2d grahics of mir were overlookable due to the mmorpg factor but then i checked out other mmorpg games and they all full 3d with skill trees and ways of lvling other than click click kill kill. u can be a tradr for exp points, a politician a hitman!!!! So I think that since mir is behind the times technologicaly you should spend more time working with the people who pay you and not acting like gods. Sorry, mir is a goo dgame but im getting sick of it. and im only lvl 25 frogs say mooo00000

Lets face it sweeties if the patch came out on time with bugs you would complain. If the patch is delayed for testing in house to ensure it is bug free you complain. If a GM replys to a question you complain cose he missed something. If you cheat and get banned you complain. If your drops get stolen you complain. If you lag you complain. If your character is weaker than another character you complain. If your over lvl25 and get bored you complain. If your under lvl 22 and get called newbs you complain.Dear oh dear you are a bunch of whingers are you not. Personally I love this game,lag or no lag,stolen drops,speed cheaters,hacked accounts etc etc. Thank you Mir Makers for a great time and keep up the good work. GunSlinger |

mmm well personaly evory one ive spoken to has the same opinnion as me about mir its a good game that will be constantly improved g and a 3 day delay is bugger all for instance look at CS some of there patches were delayed up to over a month and when they came out there were usualy more bugs in it than fixes . lets face it id personaly pay for a year if mir for 1 reason 30 to 40 quid on a new cd releced game over here and u get something like 5 to 15 hours of play till you have finished it heres one recent one i can think of off hand halflife blue shift something like £15 to buy (3 months of mir) and on hard setting i still finished the game in under 3 hours ..... can you finish mir in 3 hours i dont think so . on the lag issues ive seen mir staff do more to sort these issues out than any other server admins virtualy any where from 90% of the internal staff posts ive notised that they have a real consern for these issues and are working to get them resolved carnt really ask more than that. the other thing you have to rember most games are no longer desighned for 56k any more and TBH even in the uk where we are a lot behind the times as far as connections are conserned most of the gameing comunity is on isdn or higher now aulltho im not shure on the data transfer rates for this game the do seem to be quite high when there is a lot going on ever tryed playing quake 3 with full textures on a 56k and not though this is laggy i doubt it ;] most of these posts make me wonder waht kit people are using rembering ive seen people turn up to lan's with pentium 90's and 1 gig hdds 32 mb of ram expecting to play quake 3 ect if you have issues then post trace certs and a rough system info then they have more information to go on and find the problem

*p0p* Thats it i've no cash i can't be bothered to mine, it's a chore like super says , I've had enuff of kill exp kill exp kill exp, I can't see where this game is going even with the up-date btw i feel is a total waste of time theres nothing new really apart from 2 floors in each place Ooooo same stuff will be there Oooo boring oh and some new weaps that don't help no1 unless lvl 35+ (tekin the p!ss there) oh and gambling Oooo buy a lottery ticket Oooo nah crock of sh!t i'm afraid this patch is a rip off of our money. I can't understand why the never caught on with the mining ie hire some1 todo it for you you don't need to have a char todo it, I'd be happy if i hired some1 who had the same bag weight as me and all i saw was text info on wot he has mine'd ie. Mr. Miner sold contents of bag and made bleh ammount, i really feel sorry for ppl who work, they get home only to find they need to mine for 17 hrs just to make 300k i would of been happier if according to ya chars lvl the better chance of findin high pur ore but no thats to hard  I think this is a newbie MMORPG because most of teh adult players have left because the gameplay is so shallow and lets face it the graphics are the standard of the Amiga 500 if not worse the only thing holding this up is that it's MMO . quote: You have plenty of opportunities to get to know people. It's as simple as moving your character up to another player's and saying "Hi!" In fact, if socializing is your only craving, there is a park in the city where weapons are disallowed and players come to chat and interact socially. And, allowing for you to develop your online character's personality, we have included body language in the game design. Your character can wave, whistle, shout, cough, bow politely, scratch its head, or shrug its shoulder in ignorance or despair. Hey, you can even be an offensive by picking your nose, fart and show off your middle finger! But watch out, in the city there are rules for everything and the police don't take easily on fart offenders. (AO another MMORPG)
Just this small bit of text beats most if Mir. I get cable on the 19th and then i'm DL'n this as the gameplay has more depth and it's 3D with better graphics more gameplay and more depth X-Tream i bought Q2 3 yrs ago and i still play it but thats Action Quake but hey it's the same game innit HL bites monkeys nuts so slow and boring, CS i fell asleep whilst playing if you get bored of a FPS game after 3 hrs you must be nearing a coma playing this. Katana think of it this way: 1) You ring and order a Pizza they say it'll arrive in 30 mins, 30 mins paSs wot do u do ?? Answers imho 1) ring up and say " i ordered a pizza 30 mins ago but it has'nt arrived" they reply "Sorry it'll be 2 mins" 10 mins pasS still not arrived you ring again "Hi i rung 10 mins ago about the pizza" they reply " oh he should be outside now" yet 5 mins later he arrives . are you happy ? HELL NO to make things worse it's the wrong kind. I got to Dec b4 my account runs out, not sure i'll be playing then. I knew i shudda gone for the 1 mth option In-Game Jim0x lvl 28 warrior Discovery lvl 16 wiz <--n00bie

I am very disappointed in mir's service. It's a good game and its addicting. The service and staff have not been supportive of anything. Ive sent over 30 e-mails on various topics. Theyve only replyed to my e-mails in which it benefits them not the paying customer. So this is to the internal Mir Staff. <<<< Pull up your socks or theres going to be alot of pissed off people going to other games, not because of quality, but because of service>>>>- Mess with the best, die like the rest |

Someone said soemthign about this up date being a waste of time and nothong good is ont here ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm QUESTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This allows us to do something rather than aim for something. The new weps lvl 35 what do you mean taking the piss? youd drather a lvl 15 weap would you? its plain and simple the game getts higher leveld as the players do. why introduce soemting lowwer than teh highest lvl? there no point, if 1 person can do it a thousand can. The main target of the game is to try and over take Patches as we see lvl 35 being highest lvl this patch is made for lvl 35 is people(with weapons ext) also for others too naturally But i cans ay id be well dissapointed if in the december patch the new continets has monsters the same level as omas. Thats why the game gets bigger monsters weapons because the players are getting bigger. after each update, a higher level is classed as a noob. Because of there lack in (owning,doing) the updated stuff. Im dissapointed in a late relese but hey id drather it works than it just crash my comp. Because 1 bug can fuk a comp up forever, ok those kind of bugs arent in updates for games but you see what im getting at! GM's are doing all they can, as you can see they have responded early in the thread. GM's arent the ones taht make it or De-Bug it they are the ones that want to make it work for us. What if GM's didnt give a monkey, they report back sayign no buggs its perfect runns like a beauty. You download it after 5 hours or so(depending on speed) and only 50% can actually install it, because theres a bug against 56k modems or sumin, so 50% complain on forum the other 50% enjoy the game. The 50% in game all go hunt those new mobs and all get kileld in 1 hit because it hasnt been programed well enough, so you have every gamer angry at GM's because they didnt give a shlt. I know id liek a perfectly runnign game rather than a faulty one. OK to get rull emjoyment out of the game id have to get a faster computer and cable, unable to get the money i have to suffer extreme lagg. and get very and i mean VERY anoyed at lagg deaths dropping SERPENTSWORDS, but hey if i wasnt a junki a year ago i coulda used that cash for new comp cable ect ect. So stay patient and you will do ess complaining over all Im sure the devels are workign full shifts (with coffie breaks, i now i would) to try and get these few buggs sorted. So stay as patient as posible and im sure things will work out for the best, like i said its better they work out anoying than not at all. Laters Yo!!! Strap in the electric chair!!
