Weird costume effect

I have a weird costume effect. Most of the characters and even some of the NPC's are all wearing the same costumes as me and I didnt set the costume.

See the attached image. Please can you help in getting rid of this?

Should I return?

Posted: 30 Aug 2018 07:03 AM PDT

Hi,

I did play the game on beta and launch, and I did enjoy it. Unfortunately there was no land available to put fields etc. which pretty much drove me out. What is the current status? All slots taken still?

Yours,

Myrcc

Consider getting back. Seeking specific class/build/gear advice.

Posted: 30 Aug 2018 02:31 AM PDT

As title states. Looking for something with moderate-to-high CC, decently durable (don't want a glass cannon) and acceptable damage (doesn't need to be top notch, just want to avoid SK-like tank-only setups with pitiful damage).

Build and gear suggestions (and other guidance if u wish, haven't played for quite a while) are welcome as well.

Gaming Survey Results

Posted: 30 Aug 2018 01:38 AM PDT

Hi r/archeage

So I carried out a survey as part of my Masters project. At the end of this post I'll link to an imgur album with a bunch of stats and charts, if you want to see some even more results, or you can email me at [flp503@york.ac.uk](mailto:flp503@york.ac.uk) if you want a PDF of the full project once it's finished (if you left your email in the survey, you don't need to do this, you'll get the PDF anyway).

What was the intent of the survey?

As mentioned at the end of the survey, I was looking into uncertainty and challenge, and how they relate. Specifically I was using the Player Uncertainty in Games Scale (or PUGS), and a very recently developed challenge questionnaire (so recent we have't be able to create a snappy sounding name for it yet, though I'm hoping we'll settle on CORGIS). The main aim was to see how the subscales of these questionnaires correlate.

However, as the challenge questionnaire is very new, it's also being used to see how the challenge survey works, specifically looking at different games have different average challenge.

How did I collect the data?

I posted to 87 different reddits, and left the survey up for two weeks.

I asked respondents to fill out the questionnaires based on their most recent gameplay experience, as these should be the most "fresh" in peoples memory, as so most accurate.

The questions in the main section were first-person, past-tense, asked on a Likert scale from 1 to 5. Then there were some demographic questions and two questions giving the option to add comments related to uncertainty and challenge, or the survey as a whole, as well as a place to leave your email to get the full report, and another place to leave your email to potentially take part in further research.

Who responded?

I got 9879 responses, of which 5270 were valid, with others being identified as spam, incomplete or from participants who were underage, which I had to delete for ethical reasons.

  • 85.4% of respondents were male, 12.2% female, 1.5% identified as another gender and 0.9% chose not to answer (Link to chart)
  • The most represented age range was 18-24 with 59% of responses, and the least represented age range was 60-64 with 0.2% of the responses. (Link to table)
  • America was the most represented country with 44.3% of participants, followed by the United Kingdom with 9.2%. A total of 92 countries were represented in total. (Link to table of the 10 most popular countries)
  • The most played game was Osu!, with 337 responses. A total of 894 different games were counted in total. (Link to table of the most popular games). 9 people played ArcheAge in total.

What are the overall results?

Overall, the correlations were really strong considering the amount of data gathered. The overall correlation for the total of the uncertainty and challenge questionnaires was 0.224, which sounds small, but yeah, with so many responses anything over 0.2 is pretty impressive, especially considering in my last large survey there was an overall correlation of -0.016.

There also doesn't appear to be much variation in how the scales and subscales correlate based on game, which I did not expect. While the strength of the correlations can differ, they're always in the same direction, and the strongest correlations seem to be the same no matter what the game, or at least looking at all the games with over 100 responses that seems to be the case.

Is that it?

At the moment. I'm going to try and do some more analysis and see if there's anything else interesting to know. You can find a imgur album of all my charts and graphs and whatnot from this survey here. Sorry this post is so long,if you have any questions let me know below. When I did my last survey I found talking to people in the comments really helped me get a better understanding of my data. :)
