    threea i know that it's not your fault for all of this, and sorry to bother you all the time but you are our only way to reach your employers.

    So, back on topic, i'd like to answer at your letter to the community.

    As was announced already, the next planned update will be the second part of Dipluce Horizon. This will also include an update to the in-game rankings and with it, we will reactivate the currently deactivated rankings as well. After that, we are currently planning to release the Hidden Hideout raid, followed by the Chii Advancement and Corrupted Record

    Second part of dipluce horizon will be here the day after tomorrow with your schedule (if the update is not delayed again) so more than 3 month after part 1.

    If you keep with this update ratio chii advancement will be here at october, so one year and a month from chii release (3 month from dh pt. 2 for hh so half july and again 3 month from hh for corrupted records and chii advancement)

    This mean that we have to play for more than one year with a character with a nerf that came to balance the advancement, but without advancement.

    Now, your employers can fake an apologize how much they want, but this change nothing because this is your fault, you can blame the code merge, but even the need to do a code merge it's your fault. If you had brought the updates with the same schedule of the original version but with a good speed we had not the need for a code merge in the first place.

    Once we have reached a full live release of all main features that were included in the version that was merged, we should be much more stable again.

    So when will you reach a full release of all the features at this rate? We ar at the moment more than 12 "big" updates behind with the original version, counting only the contents released until september in the original version so at the rate of one update every 3 months this will need 3 years... 3 YEARS!!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?!?!

    Our goal was to deliver the content you really wanted faster than we otherwise could. And while that was successful, the issues we had to face due to it, lead to many frustrations and delays, which was of course not what was intended.

    Like above, you don't need to do a code merge to bring us the updates that we want.

    You just had to catch up with the original version, i don't ask to release a content the same day as the original version, 3 or 4 months behind it's still very good, and i think we can accept to have an update 5 month after the original version, but nope, you had to be always greedy so you want to release the content that will bring more money so you released chii just to do more money with her outfits and put us in this hell.

    Thank you for your understanding and patience in this.

    Oh, never seen something more wrong than this, we don't understand and we are out of patience.

    Menhit, you sure you are working with Cloud? I can't imagine it.


    And I wouldn't be so salty about GF not doing anything for months if I got a useful 5 star card in 1k Akashas. I only got my Plastica too after 1.2k Akashas back in the days. It's so lame when hehexd chii gamers with no soulstones are like "i don't care, me have Tenebris, me dmg". And people even write something like Tenebris+2, Veneris +1 in their status, it's like they are sexually identifying with the char or something.

    Well, here we are not discussing about your bad luck with rng.

    Here we are discussing about the lack of updates because this is the problem about soulworker.

    According to the latest planning, Chii Aruel Advancement and DH part 2 (without HH) should arrive in April. However, considering the current situation, I believe that before June we will not see anything.

    Are you sure?

    Hello there, about the last post, as already written in that announcement, changes can always happen in a rough plan. Since we did not release DH part 2 yet, that is the first in line, it means that all the rest updates have to be moved as well at a later point. However, we will hopefully be able to share with you some more details about the upcoming updates soon.

    And now another thread, now i want to ask this: Someone really expected updates for tomorrow? Surely not me.

    Maybe the translation thing is consumes time a lot ? :/

    Not at all.

    Every translator can do a rough traslation (what we have) in short time.

    For what i know from some people that are in the translation business a good translator can do about 4000-5000 line per day with a good adaptation (probably all the text that there is in dipluce horizon, maybe even more) and i heard about some hardcore translators that can do more than 10000 line per day.

    How does a small side-quest become something that half a year later we don't even have a release date for? You could have had this translated and ported within a month of Chii's release last year with even the slightest effort. This is not complicated in any way. Gameforge should easily have the capacity to move ahead on something so simple in a reasonable time. What is going on??? Massive financial trouble / lack of staff or something? This should be a piece of cake to port.


    By the way. Recently some people dug into the game files and found that most of the future content including Lunar Falls is already translated. That means whatever's holding things up cannot be attributed to translation times anymore. It's something else.

    I don't understand much about game files and this kind of thing, but if they really translate all the new contents it means that they already have all the latest Lion-games patches and they are constantly working on the new contents of the kr version but it doesn't make sense at all because ... What's the purpose of have the latest patchs and also translating so many things but not updating for months? Slowly the game is dying ....

    This is all my speculation.

    1)The code merge put on our client all the content that we need, but messed up the code, this is for sure, but maybe every content that they unlock can bring a lot of bug and they need time to test it (so why don't ask us to do a live betatest? why they say nothing to us?).

    2)Gameforge, being gameforge, messed up with liongames and now between liongames and trashforge there are problems.

    3)They don't gain enough money from soulworker to buy the patch for next content, but i don't think so, every fashion or akasha pack, or other stuff like this there is plenty of people willing to spend their money.

    4)Gameforge is trash, so they don't have a real reason to not bring updates or to tell us why they don't.

    Hello there, about the last post, as already written in that announcement, changes can always happen in a rough plan.

    Dear threea this is not a rough plan, it's a massive bullshit.

    Till today gameforge did nothing according to the schedule, not even an update. Always at least 2 week past schedule or cancelled updates, or both.

    So please, just stop with those answers, cause we will get only more angry cause you make a fool of us.

    And when they add it, they will be super proud and make tweets and instagram posts, when they should have add it long time ago, just like with Chii herself xD

    :lilly2:

    They can't cause if they add content fast they can't tell to naive players that they work as fast possible to bring updates.

    Oh and when they take 6 months to bring an update that normally take 2 weeks of developement and 30 min to finish it they can say that we had content and laze around for at least 3 months.

    Well then keep wasting your time here and in on discord saying stupid things Zzzz

    Game will stay like this forever, thanks to all of you ♥

    I don't think the game will be like this forever.

    When bsw was still online we had almost less than half players, there was at best six to eigh team searchs in the afternoon and almost nothing after midnight.

    This cause there was an alternative to this version, but at the moment there is no alternative to an anime action mmorpg.

    But this will change soon, we will have pso2, blue protocol and others.

    So we don't have much time to save this game, if we will have almost no content when BP and PSO2 will be released in EU this game will die.

    Oh, well....

    This is a comparison with aura kingdom, as you can see that game have half or even less users than soulworker.

    I think that game don't have a weel to make money and for what i can remember there is less people who use the premium shop.

    But you can just go to see the website and see the patch notes, even with little content they have way more updates, even if smalls.

    I don't think the problem is that they don't get enough money from soulworker, i think the problem is that they get too much money from soulworker even without updates.

    Before the maintenance: one npc with a bug

    After the maintenance: two npc with a bug

    At least it's not so serious.

    I kind of feel bad for threea since he/she is just the middleman but going to mass tag until we get a good response. Don't stop tagging just because there is a copy-pasted response. Tag until there is a REAL response.

    Yeah, i fell bad too for involve the poor threea but this is the job of the community manager.

    Some friends atm are trying to tell as many people as possible to send ticket with a copy-paste text on a single day. If we can have the help of at least 300-400 people maybe we can do something to improve this game.

    "Stop doing what you enjoy cause i'm speculating on the company suddenly doing a better job if no one plays the game anymore"? In my opinion, this is more likely to lead to a shutdown of the game. And wether or not any other company or Liongames themselves is gonna pick up publishing for us is also just speculation. I'm not gonna stop doing what I enjoy based on some loose assumptions.
    What you could do would be something like organizing a strike for a day. Also there's the possibility of maybe sending an open letter to Liongames. And of course keeping up the complaints.

    Do you really enjoy to do the same raid for more than 1 year?

    What you will accomplish sending a letter to liongames? They are developers, if gameforge don't pay for the updates, they don't send update.

    I didn't say to leave the game permanently, but if we can do a massleaving like a form of protest maybe they will send update faster, if they just shut down the game instead it's because they don't care.
