On their latest announcement they actually thought it was an inconvenience not to receive the item that was listed for every day.

So on top of our 8? Power potions. They say they will get us the items we rightfully should get.

Personally their mistake was beyond payment for the other items.

Heheh yeah, i mean all those PPs are way better imo :)
Thank you Ndoors either way :D

*shrug* everyone makes mistakes. If they are willing to replace the items with the correct ones (or better yet, just send the correct ones on top of the power potions), I don't see any reason to complain about such a minor trifle.

Still, I'd prefer the ornate maps to power potions =p. At my level, +50% EXP isn't all that much compared to the fun of treasure hunting.

Wow, good for them! Little bit of more detail - you no longer have to be on for an hour to get the items. They'll be mailed to every character at a certain time. So make sure your mailbox has room. And we'll be getting the items we're supposed to have gotten as well as what we did get. They're going above and beyond, in my opinion. :D

it was real nice of them to do what they did. I also like that everyone will get items regardless of if they log in or not.

lol guys ..

2 power potions are way better than anything else they offered .. i got 8 so far and i love it .. on the market they are 700k-1mil each .. that is a lot of cash i dont have to spend !

and besides .. lucky me .. tuesday i got a Thoroughbread + 2 pots .. yeah a horse .. and i sold it right away for 6 mil to some guy !

also i've heard ppl talking on that main chat that they've got even 4 pots in a day ..

I just hope we extra items, extra power potions are helpful.

I like the fac tthey are NO TRADE....keeps the market ok

I'm glad that they're giving us the stuff because most games they would have just said, "oops, too bad looks like you got screwed" and that really ticks off the players. I think that this was a sound call on their part just to keep us happy :D

Krullthor
11-27-2008, 10:45 AM
Not giving more items and just letting us with the PP would be good already, they went ahead and decided to offer us even more so nice going Ndoors :)

only bad thing is PP prices are plummeting will all these giveaways lol, hard to make a buck anymore

LostCause
11-27-2008, 12:07 PM
this is one apology I will gladly accept. The scrolls and stuff are great but i will take the power potion anyday. It give way more benefit then anything else they got to offer. Hopefully they will make more mistakes :)

Keats

I received ambrosia :( hope i'll keep on getting power pot though

This is all a trick. What better advertisement then a free example to every single costumer?

I think it is a trick to get people addicted and want to buy more when they run out. I can see power potion sales increasing in 2 weeks, when the casual gamer runs out of there free power potions.

I currently have about 10, some i traded for earlier and those freebie ones. I'm addicted, flat out. I will never not use a power potion. I don't think ill pay real money for them, but I sure wll be someone buying from the market.

MiaFLSurf
11-27-2008, 03:39 PM
Well, it isnt a TRICK, but of course its marketing! They want you to see how great this stuff is so you want to buy more of it....

Why wouldnt they want that?

Its a business after all.

Krullthor
11-27-2008, 03:40 PM
Yeah but in the end you only buy if you want to :) and 1 Pot well used will earn you enough money for the next Pot :)

Spydermage
11-27-2008, 06:08 PM
this marketing strategy is a very good one. that is why all MMO is adopting this strategy. only established companies will still maintain the monthly fees.

actually this kind of f2p with cash shop strategy can sometimes be more profitable than monthly p2p games.

it depends on the players, how determine are you not to spend a single dollar on it.

FrozenFury
11-27-2008, 06:22 PM
This is great news that were recieving the items we are intended to! :)

Spydermage
11-27-2008, 06:32 PM
yay, now u mentioned it... i have received all the promised items... i wonder what can we get from the Fancy treasure map... let me do now an let you know soon.

Arietta
11-27-2008, 06:52 PM
same exact items as ornate treasure map, just called something different thats all

Spydermage
11-27-2008, 07:02 PM
ahh i see... ok thanks... so far gotten gilga, dragon scale and red enchant box...

Entice

^ Wow, very nice.

NDoors is just so polite with their customer service. It's refreshing but overly flattering at the same time.

Marisa the Rainmaker
11-28-2008, 12:28 AM
I discovered that Fancy Treasure Maps do not count towards the treasure hunter title.

/me sad.

Still, the items are nice even if most of them are rotting in my mailbox ATM. For some reason, I could never bear to use the items - not even 40 untradable ambrosias.

danicrai
11-28-2008, 12:59 AM
lol yeah .. i've never been able to use the Ambrosia and Heavenly feast .. i cant remember now which is which but i got in my inv 5x 5k and 74x 10k really old ones .. and some more are coming from the devs .. gotta log-in and empty the mailbox !

as for powerpots .. yeah i love them .. i've used some free ones at lvl 50 .. got me past Dracula and i'll probably use one now to get past Khufu and into Sunken Shrine .. but i realised my money drops arent enough to keep me addicted to PP .. so its pretty easy to give up on them .. i'm waiting to get to a high enough lvl where the money drops could actually pay for the PP in those 50 battles ..

Keats
11-28-2008, 01:26 AM
What type of items fancy treasure map gives?

Spydermage
11-28-2008, 01:38 AM
the same items given by ornate map... ;)

Vrael
11-28-2008, 01:42 AM
in my opinion the mistaken items were far more useful. much prefered

Marisa the Rainmaker
11-28-2008, 02:26 AM

Nice!

I'll use mine tomorrow and post the drops too.

Notice: we still get 2x power pots XD I don't think they changed it to what they meant it to be.

Marisa the Rainmaker
11-28-2008, 10:43 AM
They didn't. Undoubtedly, though, we'll get another pack of scrolls on top of the potions in our mailbox as a "I'm sorry" gesture.

It would be hilarious, though, if we received a second pair of power potions on the last day because the two power pots were a mistake =p.

Arietta
11-28-2008, 01:51 PM
they are still giving out power potions by mistake? xD Guess I need to play that hour now

SparkGun
11-28-2008, 02:02 PM
Hurray for the free gifts, power potions are awesome:D

Newell
11-28-2008, 03:34 PM
I haven't stopped using power potions from lvl 36 to now 55. I don't see myself running out in the next 2 weeks either. I think I have like, 14 left. Roughly 1 a day, I don't use all of my stamina (How the rawr do you manage that? lol)

bakedpotato
11-28-2008, 06:44 PM
This is one of the best managing teams I've seen so far. They go above and beyond to make their customers happy. One of the few games that I wouldn't mind spending a few bucks here and there.

Aoide
11-28-2008, 08:04 PM
i hope it continues this way..
i like the freebies.. and its not like im really getting it for free.. i have to be logged in and play to receive it..

HardcoreGamer
11-29-2008, 03:16 AM
No no... the stuff are now mailed 1pm Atlantica time, online or not.

Except if you are refering to the power pots that werent supposed to be given out =/

Marisa the Rainmaker
11-29-2008, 04:53 AM
The power pots are still being given out, so whether they are supposed to be given or not is irrelevant =p. All that matters is that they are.

Newell
11-29-2008, 07:20 AM
I still think it is a marketing trap.

FrozenFury
11-29-2008, 07:26 AM
I believe it is. I was never fond on power pots til i actually USED one. They are THAT good. No wonder people keep talking about buying or selling power pots lol.

HardcoreGamer
11-29-2008, 07:58 AM
Well, we could always buy using in game money... but then again other ppl paid so it, so nDoors wins.

LtKillroy
11-29-2008, 09:26 AM
I find it funny they apologized for not giving us free items fast enough. They were free; if you get them great, if not your out nothing. Oh well, I like free items too.

HardcoreGamer
11-29-2008, 10:19 AM
They are just being courteious. I think this is good, lol. Like giving out free shampoo samples.

Ruggan
12-01-2008, 12:12 AM
Hahah, shampoo samples is sadly a good comparison to the power pot handouts...
