    i was referring to the sales packages with a mix of gems, coins, credits, tokens etc... the 29.99 maria package, etc ... calling it 600% off including the useless coins, credits, tokens no one wants and without it have a 50% or so deal. the ones they keep on recycling under different names (new years, st.patricks, easter, aniversery, valentines, 4th of july, etc ) and never changed the contents.

    Oh, I know you were referring to the actual packages we spend our money on.
    I was just saying what I'm hoping for but won't get hopes too high at this rate.

    .
    I could argue a few things, but I think emily hit the nail on the head.

    Ucool launching an Evony sale, but not for Tynon.
    1) They are awake and actively involved with some of their game titles
    2) They completely ignored Tynon.

    All the signs are there now:
    1) They ignored a major holiday for specials
    2) Support is non-existent, as confirmed by people on this forums
    3) They haven't launched a server in almost 6 months, nor have they merged servers since then
    4) The last major patch: The sirius patch was obviously rushed. Anyone who has visited those zones can tell you that they are small and all the monsters are bunched together. The tell tale sign that they just mashed things together. The balancing on the quests wasn't tested. Every boss after Malph II is a cakewalk. Although some of the regular mobs took me several tries. You'd think the bosses would be tougher than the regular mobs, right??? Nope, the sirius zones were rushed and not tested.

    In fact, the sirius zones were the first MAJOR red flag. Sure, sometimes it does take a while to get a patch out and design a whole new area, stuff happens. But the patch they put out is very much like the half finished homework some students turn in when they wait til the last 10 minutes before its due and try to complete it just before the teacher collects it.

    The 2nd major red flag is the lack of a thanksgiving special. Think about it, those specials are their moneymakers. If they feel like they can pass on doing a special, it means they feel like it isn't worth the effort to raise the extra cash. And trust me, I visited a few servers since leaving for a month. I haven't seen a lot of movement powerwise on several servers that would indicate big spending. Most of the movement in the top 12 on many servers is likely fueled by banish rewards than actual spending.

    Of course you can also go back to when they made a mistake with the release of servers 126,127, and 128. Last I checked, a couple of those servers had less than 10% of a typical server's population on rankings. They released server 129 correctly, but even today I wonder why 126, 127, and 128 weren't properly released.

    128 and the others are facebook servers (: we are still getting a few new players coming through fb buut more so people from other servers, either way all 3 died after week 1 of release. Before Dawn left, he did mention that Tynon is a game to be played out.. meaning fewer patches/updates, with a vision to be a lasting game. If you were around during beta & transitioning into Live, Ucool were cycling around updating each of their games every few months. Ucool released a mobile app game a while ago so I'm pretty sure that's been their focus. I am not defending Tynon especially when other games not provided by Ucool have more frequent updates, none the less it is what it is.

    They missed an opportunity to bank roll if not for thanksgiving.. then black friday through cyber monday. On the bright side.... at least we still have Stanley ;P

    New content cant be rushed considering the huge amount of power differences in players.

    Actually, yes they can!
    Just because smaller people (me) aren't done yet, it doesn't mean that uCool need to delay the new content.
    The problem is that us players spend our real hard-earned money and uCool don't use it towards the game. They are probably not generating enough money anymore to fund the game because they took our money and gave it to another game of theirs that may (or may not) have more potential. uCool will soon not have enough money (from the lack of income generated from us players not spending our hard-earned money anymore) to fund the servers that run the game and we will all slowly be gone
    Give it 6 months maximum!

    I am not sure i'm following your logic there? The new content goes on the end, so size of player doesn't have anything to do with it. Besides, it didn't matter in the past when they changed things, added things, and reworked what was there.
    I have to think they just are not devoting any worktime to this game, they have more games than they have staff, and money, to do with any consistency. That is an assumption, but a logical one.
