What's the future of this game?

[Morf]

All this stuff isnt really representative for an alpha server. We had 1.4 k peaks shortly after t4 release. Then ppl recognized that it was not the t4 they were looking for and we are still alpha. Right now theres nothing to do ingame instead of finding bugs. We still have random dcs and are far from getting things working. I still believe the only thing that brings ppl to the game is to progress in development.

Sau, what you say is true however some things to take into consideration.
The server is in alpha but you could also look at it as a full release game lacking expansions (forts,cities,dungeons), the game is fully playable in the terms of log in and pvp, alot of ppl played on mythic servers with no progress/development, doing so because they enjoyed the pvp, ofc new stuff will always draw some attention and will make ppl check it out but the majority play/played here because they enjoy/enjoyed the pvp and nothing more.

The population drop should be a big indication, it has dropped alot recently when it should of increased as its winter time and holidays, this is what happens when big changes are made to classes and the rvr system, this is why when changing things you need to do it gradually.
You will know Sau when i was helping behind the scenes how outspoken i was about changes, generally disagreeing with most stuff and was blunt in saying X suggestion is ****, this is why, you need to be very careful when changing things or players will simply not play anymore, this isnt rumour, from the players i know on this server nearly all of them have either quit(some being whole guilds) or have hugely cut down on playtime, this is purely down to the big changes made recently.
Dont get me wrong alot of changes have been very good and alot of them changes have been small changes instead of large changes.
As i have said before i really hope sooner rather then later some changes are scrapped completely and are taken back to the drawing board so to speak or the future of the game looks pretty bleak, when someone like me who plays RoR and no other games now plays a few hours a week instead of 10-20 you know something is wrong, hopefully the damage done isnt to much to come back from.

Its winter but their are a lot of other games to play

additionally they're is a lack of progression at this point in ters of gear past merc/anni


In my personal case im not a fan of this rvr system its just running from 1 BO to another protecting supplies, th whole process takes ages then when you finally get to the keep boom! xrelming AOO ****


i almost exclusively do SC's these days if i ever play

Got back into SWTOR, overwatch, some skyrim and DOTA2 just released 7.00

Haha, tnx to remind me, I haven't play swtor over 12mths, i think it's time to get back there to digging some new stuffs and new game story line. I had all empire and republic chars there. But compair with RoR, I still love RvR.

Greeting!

Oh Tenton my favorite. I managed noted that u dont play warhammer often last times, U didnt changed your avatar from around last months. extremely great loss for the serwer damn.

The future for this game is like they gonna add sovereign, ppl will come back for hmm 3 months then these 800 roleplay players and easy moders will play after and then again they add doomflayer oh oh 3k players for 6months and then again closed cycle.

They don't gonna (they can't) earn money even if they wanted to

Some of u devs are really good why dont u try to get a job into blizzard or something ? And then with a bigger supply try to build here something real deep

Speaking for my self, I play other games not so time consuming as RoR, dont get me wrong, I f****ing love this game and actually cried a bit when I found this project BUT spending 4 hours in a zone (which is about all the time I have on weekdays) skirmishing over BO's and in vain trying to attack keeps which are fierecly defended and more often than not nowadays end in disaster, is...well... more often than not, simply not fun enough.

Usually I end up dong some sc's and some questing with my lower level toons, waiting for somekind of change in RvR - as it has changed several times already and will change over the years to come.

But I am online here more than I am away, playing other games.

[DonBandi]

I don't play right now just because there is a lot of changes. I plan to log in in week or two and learn all changes at once. So basically I'm waiting for dust to settle down : )

New changes = no more blind zerg play
Orvr become more hardcore imo

before the new changes
there were tons of afkers, leechers hiding in the numbers
no strategy, no skill, just hide in the zerg and put some dmg to anything nearby

now new system made zergs to split
no more numbers to hide
you need to do your job properly or else it became huge disadvantage to your team and yourself in small scale war
few mistakes, under gear, low skill = dead
it's hardcore
I think you need to be in proper 6men grp to enjoy orvr in new system
even in pug wb
and making 6men is tiresome work

ppl have to afk, can't focus several hours into orvr
maybe this game need some casual playground.. but hey is there any in pvp oriented game?

for me i like new system there is a challenge, strategy, teamplay

PS, if changes good are fine, otherwise are bad. But as the Devs said, it's still on alpha version, nothing we can complain about it. Also it's free to play, it's pretty awesome the game still online to playing, so I'm gratefull their hard works. Say no more

Keep up guys! You all been watching all the times

Amen Brother. What an incredible gift the devs have bestowed upon us. I wish people could convey their thoughts on changes in a productive manner. This isn't live where you are are paying monthly fees for a brand new AAA game. You are not entitled to berate the devs here because you don't like a change to balance or game mechanics. Some folks need to grow the f up and learn their place here.

It depends on your concept what a casual player is?

For me a casual player is not how many hours you are in a game, it is what motivates you to play a game.

For hardcore, winning probably is everything where as participating is enough for a casual player and the win, is the added bonus of that participation.

I play magic the gathering with my friends and in our group we have 1-2 Hardcore, that cant enjoy the game unless they are winning, where as I can enjoy the game if I get defeated.

In my concept there are lots of casual player in this game, more so than hardcore and yes we exist in all pvp games m8.
