    If you opt-in to a non licensed apk, you must be prepared for some of these kinds of consequences! The changes that occur during this time are going to be potentially more substantial than any that will occur after the global launch date.

    Change is inevitable for the stability of the game (like DL and the re-work of energy system). Many know, or should know that everything is in flux because of a limited release. The disappointments arrises, but people who opt-in to a non licensed apk should be prepared for the changes with a grain of salt. Now that Guild name reserves are in place this should help quite a bit....but the other factors remain from the players not developers. People who got in, like myself was to solidify my "Identity" because before guild reserves, there was no safe guard.

    also, i wouldnt of known about these Apk's if red didnt post a thread about it. This will only make people downloading the unlicensed version of the game more popular.

    Red basically made the apks known to everyone who didn't knew about it.
    He was getting "the message" across to those who downloaded unlicensed apks though(Actually there's nothing wrong with downloading unlicensed apks....It's the people reserving names- avatar or guild that i detest.)

    Why so much hate or dislikes for people downloading Apks. STS should be flatered instead of making consequences IMO.

    We are flattered, but it is also a sub-optimal gameplay experience for a variety of reasons previously mentioned. Not hate or consequences Astrocat, just the truth.

    That's the only reason I got in too. To solidify my identify. Also I had no idea STS was against people downloading the apk. Now that I know it isn't supposed to be done, I'll just wait patiently for the release.

    I say as long as people haven't played since the first client got phased out (Or only loged in once on the next one) there should be no consequences.

    I do understand that non canadian/australian players have no right to complain about what they may lose from the pre-released versions, because they have no right to be there in the first place, but what about those in other countries who have bought platinum with real money and end up losing their goodies because of those changes? unless you plan on reinforcing the steel bars and compensating the canucks and aussies, I see no way to get past this without some sore behinds. unless you wanna go... ermm... "If you made an account before 11/2/12, you get this *insert legendary item here* otherwise I see no way this scenario would play out without verbal bloodshed.

    This is what makes me sick. People just don't seem to realize that AL is still in testing phases. STS wants people to play to find as many bugs/issues so the release is as seamless as possible. But it is clear that many are way too concerned with leveling and gold. I hope thry clear out all items/gold/kills/whatever that had nothing to do with IMPROVING the game.

    I would totally agree with You if there wouldn't be an option to spend Platinums in the game (purchasing is fine) so it wouldn't make players to loose their own real life money. But, wait!! They should erase the purchases too, so players would get back all their Platinums and could start it again. Except character slots!!!!
    So, thus kind of erase is what I could/would accept. Hmm?

    So all of us playing have to suffer the consequences because a few players on the forums are whining that we got a head start?
    How does 1 player having more gold than you effect you in any way shape or form? From my point of view it's greed and the idea of "missing out".
    And pretend you were living in the country STS selected for the limited release. Would you feel like it would be a fair move to wipe everything just b/c other players whined and complained?
    With any MMO update/game there's always unhappy people...from my personal experience you can't satisfy everyone with an update.

    So if you are unhappy then tell STS to not do this in any future game releases instead of letting us players suffer the consequences.

    Before You would misunderstand it..
    I don't support the idea to wipe the game at global release! I wrote about the way that I could accept without any headache.
    I also have a lots of golds, pink items, a pink dodo, but I wouldn't care if I'd have to start it with resetted stats and empty pockets. I would still have the same chances to remake the whole thing on the same way as I did for the first time. The limited release is to show players what the game is like, and for STS to have a test how the purchases are in the game, and polish the game and kill the bugs.
    It's not about making first players millionaires...

    Default On Elsewhere-Hosted APKs...

    I just wanted to try the game earlier, as I'm not currently playing any other STS games. I'm no "hardcore" gamer and wont be sad if consequences were to come.
    I'm just gonna wait for the iOS version since I never really liked gaming on my phone. It was fun while it lasted!
