Incarnate Fun

Hello all. I have been wondering is anyone doing incarnate trials any more? I have not seen hardly anyone in Dark Astoria in the past week or so. I just came back to game after being away for a few years and just want to continue to have fun as long as possiable and unlock my dam hybrid slot. Well thank you all and cheers to a game I have loved sense the beta.

I know about close does this mean all the 50 decided to leave already. I guess I just plan to be here till the end was hoping everyone would be here too. I do understand pople are upset. I am not happy with paragon with how quick that are dropping all and not finish stuff like issue 24 and projects that are almost done but I started in the beta of this game and plan to be here til the end. I am happy for everyone I meet in game and hugs for all.

NCSoft shut down Paragon Studios, so they cannot work on the game anymore. NCSoft are the people to be unhappy with over all of this.

More or less I believe the original poster was wondering if people are still going to run 'Trials' despite the closing of the game.

If anything I would advise trying to form your own using the channels you have available, help, and the new looking for group feature.

I cannot speak for everyone else, but for myself personally I cannot find a reason to put forth an effort into Trials, Task Forces, Farming, etc. Especially since I know in a few months it would just be time wasted.

Good luck however.

Incarnate content specifically is a bit different than regular content in that you need to be a VIP in order to participate. The announcement states:

Quote:
As part of this, all recurring subscription billing and Paragon Market purchasing will be discontinued effective immediately.
This has left several people unable to upgrade their accounts to VIP status for the remainder of the game. (I've heard of some kind of work around but I haven't looked into it extensively). This has also left people under the initial assumption that if their subscription ran out during the final 3 months they would be unable to renew it, thus preventing them from doing Incarnate content entirely. However, it seems that some people's accounts have remained frozen in VIP status so far (we don't know for sure how long this will last). There are also efforts underway to upgrade everyone to VIP, but this is not a guarantee.

Overall, there is a large degree of uncertainty surrounding what will happen to players' accounts and this has left some people not wanting to invest the time in certain activities not knowing for sure when they will be disabled (up until November 30th). The announcement did mention that there would be a more detailed timeline released, but at this point we are taking it one day at a time.

Personally, I used to run iTrials almost every night and have since stopped. I can't speak for others, but I don't intend on running them with that degree of frequency for the reasons mentioned above. However, this is not to say I wouldn't be willing to help out with scheduled runs/badge requests/etc. So if you'd like to run a Magi, throw up a date and time and I will try my best to make it. My subscription runs out today, so I'll have to see what happens.

My account should have expired on Sept 8th, it did not. Also, it should have upgraded to a 7 year vet. Just for fun I sent trouble ticket, surprisingly, got an answer, not a robot, paraphrasing, All accounts are currently frozen, and no updates/changes can be made at this time. Nice, so I guess I'm vip until the end of time. Personally, don't see why they cannot change eve body to vip, same as a free activation, they already have the script, just change the dates from now till Dec 1. It is not like they are going to loose any money doing that. If something forms and I am not already busy, will join you. But, it has been a struggle to get anything incarnate going, I've only done 1 Lambda since the announcement.

This was suspended with F2P. I should've been upgraded a long time ago, but when Freedom launched, they didn't track it anymore and it was shut off.

I believe what ever your subscription status was on Aug 31/Sep 1 is what you are stuck at, since that is when the stopped/closed all account management. When I read the announcement I tried to log into the account management site, no response and still no response as I type this. Are people going to get refunds on unused game time, don't know.

Zwill mentioned some time ago that Game Support will be contacting people that paid up in advance for their subscription. Don't believe the troll posts about this topic as they've already been debunked.
