I actually tried it out a couple of hours today and I think that the Stamina system will do just fine with a little bit of touch up here and there in the future

ppl are already bashing about this new update without even testing for it, but I think this will effectively discourage botting in the live server and also let users to interact with each other and have just plain fun time together.  I think that's what MMO is all about, HAVING FUN TOGETHER!!.

Let's test the game more thoroughly and give Dev constructive feedbacks guys...I really really love this game and l see myself playing this game for a long time.

@Poringrider I totally agree with you,

I think Atlantica Online deserve much more and better attention than this. Most of the users who didn't take part in CB1 will expect this game to be just 'bad' after reading the other threads, but I've played CB1 and really enjoyed it, the turn-based combat mode is brilliant. everyone's getting upset now because of the stamina system without even trying it out. After all it's just the next phase of Closed Beta and I think there are still many improvements to come before the final release.

This whole paragraph suspiciously sounds like a Dev or Mod for the game, not that im paranoid or anything.

Sorry im not convinced, i've played the first beta and the stamina system is a Limitation not a godsend. After an hour and a half of playing and finding my stamina at 0, i simply closed the game. At a low level what do you expect me to do, craft? join a guild? maybe party with the 2 or 3 people still on the server that hopefully havnt used up their stamina points.

I was really looking forward to this game too.

STAMINA SYSTEMS IN GAMES DO NOT WORK 
PERIOD!

Well, the stamina system may not be so bad if you play an hour a day, but after level 50 you onl get 50 stamina per day.  Can you imagine what leveling will be then?  I got to 53 in closed beta 1 and i can assure you that 50 battles willnot get you anywhere.  Try getting the high end mercenaries with 50 battles...will take you a month.   Try upgrading 9 mercenaries when it takes 100 ashen crystals do do it per mercenary.

The problem is that this system helps uber casual players like you while at the same time drive away any moderate or hardcore player, we all know the hardcore players are the cash shops best friend.

It took me like 2 hours to completely use up my stamina on the first night of cb2.  Why? because i grinded on low level mobs so that i could have all of my mercenaries equipped.  this is how i play, i prepare my team then i quest and level up.  This system is nothing more than telling the community how to play, a HUGE no-no in an mmo.  This system is the inverse of a sandbox mmo.  The stamina was nothing more than a dark could hovering above me, every fight i watched my ability to play shink and shrink.  Regaining it isnt even worth it, i have to pvp battle someone for only 3 points? thats 3 battles...

This system may not seem like a huge deal to a casual player now, but even the casusals will be effected later on at 50+ when they only get to play for 30-45 minuets and those long quests at 50+ take weeks to finish.  Quest are not suppose to take weeks at a time to finish, at best your suppose to finish a quest in one sitting.

 

That being said stay away from this game untill ndoors removes this horific system.

 

* i would also like to point out that the OP has a seriously low post count, which tell me that he is affiliated with NDOORS, since i only saw one person on the official forums post something positive about the stamina system after trying it.  Even the 10-15 players who were optimistic about the stamina system before trying it have changed their minds and want it removed.

 

*listen you your damn community and remove this horible system*

Did anyone notice the first two posts in this thread are from MMORPG.com accounts created the same day they posted.

My guess is, Atlantica Online employees.

EDIT: NVM...

I don't suppose MMORPG.com can police this kind of shameless, deceptive self promotion?

Who cares, this forum is full of company self promoters, if you want to know what the atlantica community really thinks click on the website link and go to the forums, you will see that the two guys who posted about loving it have nothing to do with the actual community.

hey, you guys may think what you want, but I was just trying to say that I really enjoyed CB1 and although the new implemented system might not work(I only played CB2 for about half an hour) but there will hopefully be improvements.

yup, the gm's said that they will listen to us, now it is up to the developers to take action and remedy this situation.  Im sure others can vouch for diffrent games where this has been the case, the community usualy loses these battles, especialy when dealing with a system designed to sell cash shop items, no matter the detriment of the game/community as a whole.  Mabey this company is diffrent, who knows.

 

but like i said, i think the community has been heard, the ball is now in the developers court.
