There's a sting in the tail...
Might as well let everyone know the bad news [if this happens] months in advance before it actually happens. That way you know what is coming and do not have a nasty surprise.
CNR is not working that great and cannot say we are satisfied with it. It is a good system, the best one out there, for now. But that is the problem; we are comparing it to how DCS is and how it will be. If you think CNR if great, DCS will totally surprise you, in a very good way.
When DCS comes about and we introduce it in Dasaria, unfortunately you will lose all CNR skill points and levels. But it does not stop there, all CNR items will be completely removed from the world as well. Do not worry though; we will have some sort of process in place through which each character will gain some +1 magic items to compensate for the loss of CNR items. They will be made Lore Items so you cannot hold more than one and you will not be able to sell them. This is to prevent exploiting. If you are done with them, then just dump them into the trash disintegrator.
There are a lot of reasons why this will happen, one being balancing again, another economy and another is the introduction of a Crafter Guild or something like that. More details on this will follow when we will be closer to implementation.
I can guarantee the transition will be totally flawless and that there will not be any problems [talk about putting your neck on the line].
I just thought I would let you know, as I have said, months in advance if it is to happen. Another guarantee is that it most defiantly will be worth it.

Just wanted to restate this part as a quote so people don't gloss over it.Depheant wrote:When DCS comes about and we introduce it in Dasaria, unfortunately you will lose all CNR skill points and levels.

I can only guess it will work like the current trades system with some differences that will be unigue to Dasaria. I'm sure it will fix some of the current problems within the CNR system as well. Sorry, but that's about a good of a guess than I can give.
Now as for when, not a clue.

...and I've spoken to Deph again:
As it seems right now, there wont be a DCS, at all... As neither Deph nor J4 has got time to work on it anymore. There is a very slim chance that they might find time in the future to work further Dpeh says, but as I said, a very slim chance.
So, I guess we should focus on improving the CNR for now...
