P2P option might be available in the future. This premium service would guarantee a 24hour log in.

How many players would like that as an option?

- Joymax Moderation Team

EDIT =====----======----==--=--=-=-=-=-

Ok some people gone abit crazy about this post lol please read the rest before posting.

If this was an option, this Premium service would exist with things that are already in existent.

i.e., Silver Ticket, Gold Ticket and Premium Ticket.

I ask only for your opinion on who would like the fact that they would be able to use their Ticket Time without the frustration of logging in.

- Joymax Moderation Team

I guess you dont quite understand the context.

This is for ticket users.

You are paying for your Gold/Silver tickets are you not?
Hence, your paying to play.

- Joymax Moderation Team

It is not a P2P Server.

It is P2P SERVICE.

The difference is, you do not start on a NEW server.
You are using your existing character.

Everyone who has complained about not being able to log into the game and use their Gold tickets your telling me that you wouldnt like the fact that you are able to log in first try?

- Joymax Moderation Team

If you are using Goldtime, you would GAIN this Feature.

If you are using Goldtime, you have already Paid for it.

This was brought up, and i am looking for your opinions. If anyone doesnt like the fact that they actually CAN log in then its ok to say that as well.

Like I said, this is something that we have considered due to users complaining that they are unable to use their Gold tickets.

- Joymax Moderation Team

Ok, just to clarify,

The LOGGING IN would be a extra Bonus to a Gold Ticket which already EXISTS. There are no other Fees.

Ok, ill remember that one. I have actually thought about that myself.

Just wow =o I like this game, it would be really cool if it ensures that something will be done about the bots, gold bots, high level bots, lag, etc, but if it does not then its pointless, I do not mind having to wait at times to actually log in for a f2p game.

Ell · Post by **Ell** » Tue May 01, 2007 5:08 am

Unless they improve their service and when GMs stop becoming myths, then maybe but right now, there are many better games out there that are P2P.
Seriously it seems like they increase server traffic on purpose so you have to pay to get on. Another Joymax get money scheme

nice :p
id pay for that ...

Ashikiheyun · Post by **Ashikiheyun** » Tue May 01, 2007 5:09 am

How the heck would that work? Servers would get full of paying people and we're back to full servers and people having to wait, and wait longer to log in...that is worse in my opinion......doesn't iSRO make enough already?

I need Masta's thumbs down guy here!

Forgot to add: :banghead:

how it would work is by getting rid of all the non-paying players. i know a LOT of people on the forum buy silk and maybe a lot of your friends buy silk, but in reality the majority of the players worldwide do not (since it's a f2p game afterall). so if they kick all the non-paying players when the demand appears, then the servers would be quite empty.

"fak" who up?

im one of the players that doesnt buy silk, since that is for me
not the experience of playing a free game.
i would probably quit playing this game and move on to an other
free to play game; thats what i always do. however, if they want
to keep only the players that buy silk, that means they keep the
bots too since all bots have silk-bought pets and probably use
silk for other purposes aswell.

my opinion: sro p2p -> i quit.

lol i would sooo quit this game

p2p--->no more sro for me

this was the original post and MD replied with that

Create a paid Server, whit a charge of US$8 per month
and giving x3 experience. Like MU Online
The transfer cost is free for the first time.

I bet you would get a lot of people and that solve
the login problem.

Who support this idea?

MrJoey · Post by **MrJoey** » Tue May 01, 2007 5:31 am

P2p = demand for private servers. It would just make those pservers come out faster.

same for me. i'm playing a f2p game because it's "free" (and no i don't buy silk). there would be no point in me staying here if it goes to p2p.

i'd probably go to other f2p mmo (cSRO, perfect world, etc.) or just go back to my good-ole FPS.

See, that sounds much more reasonable to me! Just leave my Olympus server alone and make another for that and it's fine with me, heck I might even try it.

And yes, I buy silk on the occasion.

You wanna "fak" me up? No thanks... :roll:

firefox6 · Post by **firefox6** » Tue May 01, 2007 5:37 am

only reason id p2p for this game if we actually got good updates

Axeoo7 · Post by **Axeoo7** » Tue May 01, 2007 6:12 am

Well its not really pay to play its just for gold ticket users and you wont have to pay anything else.

cin · Post by **cin** » Tue May 01, 2007 6:13 am

so that would be 1 server to grind/farm on and all other
servers to show off your fully farmed high level chars?

sounds stupid to me.

ping_lo · Post by **ping_lo** » Tue May 01, 2007 6:20 am

If I could grind my GT in peace that would be cool. Only bad thing is I want to keep in touch with guild and union and be able to switch if they need help.

This still would not be a substitution for actually doing real GM work. As it stands now the GMs are a joke. But it would tide me over for a bit.

ZeFrog · Post by **ZeFrog** » Tue May 01, 2007 6:35 am

So to summarize, if you have a ticket (Gold/Silver)...you get login priority/preference...

I'm definetely for it.

keny_paintball · Post by **keny_paintball** » Tue May 01, 2007 6:39 am

omfg.. come on they are already rich ass wich silk.. they made milion and bilion and they want more omg i stop playing if we must pay in the future if i want a paying game im gonna move on wow..

cin · Post by **cin** » Tue May 01, 2007 6:44 am

it sounds like it will be very boring for the gt players in an
empty server, grinding/farming all day..

When you're already using premium items, you can log in to that server without any extra costs. It's just a grind server for people that already have a goldticket, silverticket, monkey etc..

So it's just a server where you can log in to grind off your gold ticket for the day, and when you're done you can go back to trying to log in to your normal playing server :banghead:

And i don't think you can go on any server with your grinded character, just the one you created it on..

Well in my opinion this would be great.
