Whered everyone go?

[KikkL]

Its always been populated mostly during EU times. But the NA/Oceanic times have taken a blow.
Atleast for mid tier. Where is everyone? Whered they go? Whyd they leave?

How can we get them back?!
T4 is still mostly active whenever. But its sad to see not many around.
This is the only game ive played for years. I dont understand why everyone else doesnt have the same mindset.

ohwell Maybe oneday

google :return of reckoning ban

What does that mean?! Half the player base got banned hence the lower population?! xD

I used to be on during NA times nightly. I've personally stopped playing much really because T4 seems kinda stagnant for me. I don't really know anyone on the server anymore, guilds rarely seem to recruit in /5, and you don't really have a chance at non-scenario gear progression as a PUGger while playing destro.

That and I have ADD when it comes to picking a class. I have like 8 r40 characters, and can never stick to just 1 to keep up with the players in the top-end gear.

Just must have been an inbetween time for time zones.

Like the new changes to LORD and the rate which zone builds.

Less wait times are a lot better!

Quality thread.

Whilst pondering, perhaps seek out your NA comrades and entice them if you have such concerns. My observations are that content matters, and when we have new things to offer, NA tends to perk its ears up. Until they establish a solid base of RvR-interested players, expect their numbers to grow solely when large pieces of content are released, and slowly dry up to the current base of hardcore players.

We haven't done any marketing outside of the natural buzz generated by the current players, that time will come when we are less alpha-state, and closer to full functionality.
