New & Old

Hello, fellow fiesta players. Some of you may know me, while most of you probably do not, Needless to say, I come from the beginning of the game, When everything seemed "Shiny, new, balanced, and golden"

Without a doubt, outspark has milked the corporate cow until it produces little more then little spurts of sad releases of recycled outfits and slightly-less-then-before-enhancements.

In a previous post while i was lurking, i noticed someone said that a large amount of the original playerbase diminished because outspark could not respect the players tastes, and instead, made the game tragically easy, but impossibly hard in the Pvp department (Unless you CS for enhancement weapons, that is)

My question to you is, if any of you had been playing this game 2 years ago, What are your impressions on their actions and form of advertisement now, Does it not bother you? Do you find it helpful? I really want some input here.

Well, nearing the 4 year anniversary of me joining outspark, i have to agree with you. Especially from my PoV, being an archer for a majority of the time, it is extremely difficult in PvP and has only gotten harder (especially against those who i like to refer to as Outspark's "slaves" aka loaded CS'ers)

and yes i think it has gotten significantly easier to level, and i mean that in the worst possible way. It took me FOREVER to get to 20 on my archer, where as on my trix and fighter i got to 20 both in a matter of a week (my fighter actually 3 days) and then they made an even easier task of making it from 20-60 with the implementing of Iyzel's Tower.

I mean we're talking 3 or 4 levels per run at the lower levels (and thats not even completing the tower most of the time) and the quests will take you right up to about 45 without effort. CC hasn't made a significant change of pace for 6x but its made 66-69 easier for sure. I know people capable of making it all the way up to 90 in about 3 weeks where as i still struggle to make it through my levels (once again due to lack of SC) So yeah, i agree 100% that outspark has pretty much dug their own grave in the eyes of "veterans"

Well. We can't completely place all blame on Outspark as they aren't the developers. But they are the players voice when it comes to communicating with the developers. When I was a CL, I would try my best to voice concerns of the players to the GMs and other Outspark staff hoping I could help push some of the bigger issues up front, but there was always an excuse, mostly from the developer company.

Fiesta could definitely use some improvements, but at this point, it's safe to say Fiesta is a beginner MMO and if its not meeting your standards, move on. It's definitely not a PvP game, but I wouldn't say its hard. It's just so simple with only 4 classes with the most basic of spells and there's little competition out of it. Nor does it have any kind of end-game, and it really isn't the best for questing and leveling. I remember in the 80s, each level had like 3 quests tops. I've played games where you can't even keep up with the quests. Everything in the game could be improved, but they aren't going to do it. I played Fiesta from the CB, and it really hasn't changed much other than a few bits of content that they announced was coming out soon 6 months to a year ahead. Higher levels, same crap.

I had been playing 4 years ago. Kept on playing for three years with lots of breaks. My impressions, not really liking it. Helpful? Well it sure helps them. I just love the game and everyone I've played with. If I knew that each and every one of them have quit (about 95% already have) and will NEVER go back, then I wouldn't even contemplate trying to play on OS again. Hooray for private servers?

I played for 4 years as well, But we can both admit that hair coupons and costumes had hardly tainted what seemed like a flawless MMO at the time.
Seeing what happened next was also painful, with OS making gaps between players that had money (older, possibly rich or have jobs)
And younger (Parents not trusting online transactions with money/ no jobs)
That really set the tone for the game, Knowing when, unless you can chuck out $40 a week on extenders, etc. and becoming, what Bleeding X Heart referred to as "Slaves" seemed to be a sticking point for me, I had money, but the idea of spending copious amounts of money on a game that screams "FREE TO PLAY MMO" kind of puzzled me, Yet here it is.

Although I haven't been playing as long as those above, I can agree on your last point. Without a cash shop, the smarts of the players really show, but of course, there's always a catch. I don't use sparkcash and I'm fine, but there's always that one thing that you want but cant' get. My situaton is the "younger" side. It becomes a routine to some to keep spending money where it could go otherwise. Yes, maybe spend a couple of bucks once in a while to spruce up, but other than that, the heavily equipped SC slaves bug the hell outta me.

I actually just signed on to Fiesta today after 3&1/2 years and you guys are right, its really different now. I remember when the cap was 59, it got so hard to level up about mid 40's, only way to do it was to start aoe'ing in Uruga xD. those were good times... now theres a quest for everything, its not the same

LOL! Not even just Uruga! With one of my old groups of friends, I've even reached FoS! xD (back when it was the highest map, and when the 30-levels-above-you rule didn't apply yet of course) man we loved grinding there, had lots of fun too and it was the place to be!
