I don't think I would, and I think a lot more people will leave this game if it happens because:
Levelling is boring and monotone already, if you want to make a difference you need a level 50 character which is already hard to get for a lot of players (specially new ones)
This new fatique system prevents you from doing that and will make levelling more a pain than it already is, from level 1-30 there's nothing a player can do to keep him going, if he doesn't have a clan he won't have any motivation to keep going so he can fight in the war zone and finally have fun, if a player is having fun while playing why should he keep playing?

Even with a clan some of these level 1-30 characters stops playing.

Reset powers as a premium scroll? the last thing a new user wants to do is start over again because he made a mistake in his setup and discovered he has to pay if he wants to make it up. "Pay money or live with your noob mistake and a sucky build for war"

You say that some players reach level 50 within a month, these are not exactly new players, these are very experienced players who knows the game very well and buys premium scrolls plus levelling all day, the fatique system will stop them from doing this but it will also stop new players from getting to level 50 and it will most definately not keep casual players who doesn't play 7 hours a day to play this game.

You say you don't want imbalance because of reset_powers, well why give it to premium users? Then it WILL create imbalance and will affect the war.

and let's face it, there's a lot of other mmos out there, the thing which keeps a lot of people going in this game is the war zone and that you don't have to pay to play effeciently. There's a lot of things to cope up with at the moment

imbalanced game (a marksman can tank better than a knight and evade 90% of my spells without sotw)
poor game design
slow
laggy
levelling is boring and monotone.
poor poor moderation in game and on the forums

reset_powers so you can play how you want without having to pay is a good thing, keep it and you will keep most of your players, remove it and regnum online will die as you limit what a free user can do with playing. And a free user might not pay, but he will tell about the game and more will try it out.

You might as well make it a monthly fee because it kinda seems like you have to pay now to be able to play effeciently.
I totally agree with you.
All that stuff to only premium people will be very unfair for many people, because 1/10 of people have Special-Premium-Magical rings and amulets and the others have the poor rings and amulets from quests.
Being able to only reset with Premium scrolls with be very much worse too.
I think is good to see BGD working as hell in-game, but working as hell in-premium stuff with be very bad...

I havent read ALL the replies, just page 1 and 4 so forgive me if someones mentioned this, but the /reset_powers command as a premium scroll will make non-paying conjs pretty much USELESS IMO. Conjurers cant lvl and be a healer with the same setup, although its possible, it is EXTREMELY slow and ineffective.

Also about the fatigue system, AWD made a good point that from lvl 1-30, people dont go into wz and will have nothing to do but to lvl, so will find the game to be boring.

I currently level my conjurer on the weekends, in big chunks (8-10 hrs), so if after 3 hours my xp drops to 50% , my levelling time will increase dramatically, then after 6hrs 0% ?? i think this is ludicrous, i will never hit level 50 if it goes like that. I dont mind the -15% xp per mob to be honest, it dosent bother me, just means il need to kill more mobs.

I understand the need for NGD to increase premium sales, but i dont think this is the way to go, i mean come on 0% xp after 6 hours..limiting /reset_powers command?? It really is a bad move on the part of NGD.

IF NGD does this 'fatigue' system, and the /reset_powers limit, i do think i will quit the game, which i have played for 7months or so now.. its really a shame

Sorry to flame on ur thread AWD btw

You disappoint me AWD, I expect this sort of thing from others not you. Nobody is being forced to pay anything, the speed at which level 50 characters can roll off the conveyer belt is simply being curbed. This is the sort of fear mongering, hate generating thread that will be bad for the game by dividing and demoralising the community, and distracting from all the good news, like the three new developers that have been hired, or the other improvements coming in the new patch.

And regarding the reset feature being changed...

Yes, and the bad thing is that it creates some kind of mass panic and everyone thinks the game is doomed. The make an elephant of a fly like we say in the Netherlands.

If at lvl50 I have to keep paying money to enjoy the game, I'm gone.
i agree. i didnt vote since i have 2 lvl50s and just do RvR. But if i have to pay to play at lvl 50 im out.

What is it with everyone and the "have to pay money", you don't have to now, and you're not gonna have to.

Gawd, it's like watching sheep reacting to a guy with a "the end is nigh" sandwhich board, except the first sheep actually misread...
