I am very angry with the amount of money I´m spending on VCO these days, and I had free BBO server brought to my attention.

    First thing I do was drop by the Item Mall, to see the features. Item Mall stuff give a good idea about a game development.

   Seriously, I am shocked. BBO IM is a gamekiller alone. Let´s analyze a few items.

   Auto scrolls: existant in VCO, very controversial. Allow a person to scroll all his skills to max without ever bother to play.

   Phase 3 books. Existant and deeply hated in VCO, makes the "free game" concept a joke.

  Now the things that don´t exist in VCO:

  Guardian Light Chest: WTF is this? If IM description is accurate, each guardian light gives you total invulnerability against another player. This is a PvP killer. Two players spawning them during a fight will make no damage to each other. All PvP fights will never end.  

 Commercial/Industrial Pillars: Guildmembers will no longer need to work their guild up. One person, with 5 accounts and a deep pocket can make a lvl 5 guild in a day.  

 Really, I really don´t understand why people say this is any better than VCO.  One excellent game made into two money traps.

I doubt you have read the item description carefully, there is no item that tottaly protects you from PvP just items that protect you from NPC pirates.

And the guild pillars, have you took a look at the price of those ? they cost a lot! 375 Pts! If someone wants to spend 1k euros to get a level 5 guild then he should go ahead.

    Here comes a word by word reproduction of the description of GUARDIAN LIGHT CHEST:

 " Contains 100 guardian lights. Each guardian light provides immunity for 60 seconds to all basic harmful buffs attached to players, such as injury, bleeding, poisoning and paralisys."

  So, my english skills fail me(I´m not a native english speaker) or I´m not the one who didn´t read things carefully.

  More: There is the phase 3 book(you pay 300 IM points to keep leveling certain skill after 100), and there is not  only the regular auto skill book, but also one designed for phase 3 skills, which multiplies by three the xp gain, meaning you make 30k xp points every 10 seconds of online imobility.

  About the pillars:Allow someone with deep pockets to harm the very essencial concept of guild work is not something nice. In VCO there are players who spend thousands of dollar monthly to make their über-Chars/Guilds. It´s just a matter of time till such players hit BBO. And if the environment is good for them, they´ll ruin the game for everyone else. Try to read the VCO forums, guild secrtion, Columbus server, and you´ll understand what I mean.

The guys with deep pockets are out doing something else then spending their money on this worthless game, and so far i haven't seen anyone upgrade their guilds trough the pillars.

And please go away from these forum do you know what "buff" means ? It doesn't protect you from actual damage but you don't get negative buffs As in bleeding status when you lose hp over time, as in cripple when you are slowed down and many others.

It doesn't say it totally protects you from any kind of damage for 60 seconds.

  So, one cannot take extra damage, meaning axe users will be the kings of PvP.

  But if this game is useless, why do you bother so much about it? Why get so upset if someone disagrees with your opinions about these games?

  I think VCO is a big money drain, a very addictive one, and that´s why it works so well in this goal. The free BBO server may not have tasted the problems yet, because it´s been out there for a month now. But is just a matter of time.

  People with deep pockets also enjoy playing, and they´ll be in BBO, as they are in VCO. Not a possibility, but a fact.

  By the way, you seem to know very little about how things work in high levels. Don´t you think you should wait a little to get so passionate  about this?

  Or your moved by some blind faith that Yusho will be any different than IGG when things demand? VCO engine is only one. Would Yusho change it to it´s own loss? I don´t think so.

I just have to say that the quality for which Yusho offers support for the platform is way superior to VCO. You can always try to play the p2p version, since VCO doesn't have such a thing.

Well i play vco and have dragon equipment and am not an item mall junkie. There is a point in the game where IM DOESN"T REALLY COUNT.

That's what i have been trying to explain

   I don´t deny it. There is really a part where you don´t need Item Mall. You can actually got thru the whole game without ever buy Item Mall.

   All you have to do is accept the limit of 100 in all your 8 phase 2 skills and never PvP.

I really dont like item malls in general because you end up spending countless dollars to play a not so good game when that money could go elsewhere to something more worthwhile.

There is also a pardon decree in IM mall wich gives kids with credit cards exuse to Pk everything and it's the reson why server is Dead. There is a thing that changes wind speed . And an arrest order for IM , basically all you need to play this game is spend 500 Eu in item mall and you can rule and even GM's will brownnose you if you're not willing to spend this kind of cash better give up.
