That idea would not help dude. The only thing it would do is drive veteran players away as all their hard work would be for nothing. Allowing us the ability to fight and have relations with other servers, makes the community not only closer but allows interserver trading, alliances and war. This would be a huge asset given the way the game is. Seeing as there is already a whole trading system there is potential to make a special city where people could even trade with other players through the npcs there similar to what we do in sepermeru. If done properly cross server would bring a great deal of life. Not just cross server raiding but character transfer and such would also help keep pvp alive. That way no progress is loss and if severs die players can flee to new servers where yes they are forced to build new homes but at least they donât have to grind from nothing. What your asking for would be a specialty server like on ark the procedural generated maps that are hit by a meteor at the end of each month or so. Applying such a thing to all pvp servers is not a great idea unfortunately. However such servers have their place in teaching players how to pvp and keeping a cycle going. Perhaps by using a times 6 multiplier or something so the grind would be very fast. However wiping servers would not aid anyone those of us that already know what we are doing would only end up back on top and then we would end up in the same problem.
Come to think of it rebalancing of combat and the addition of new weapons, armor, abilities, magic and content would also help a great deal turning pvp into a rock paper scissors style play where everything has a place forcing you to be more tactical than just a run of the mill hack and slash.
PVP = 1/6 of the game.
PVE = 3/6 or 1/2 of game. PVE Single Player offline,PVE online, Co-op which is Online.
Boss battles = 1/6 of game.
Purge = 1/6 of game.
5/6 of the game not PVP. So resetting on those servers are worthless and unusable.
PVP servers need resetting every 1-2 months. Alive servers = Resets.
Dead servers = no resets. As you have now.
Server resets need to be confined to a special type of game mode they cannot afford to run anyone off as it is due to their financial issues that they have. The reason the game is in its current state is because the company nearly went out of business. So what you are suggestion is going to run even more players away reducing the amount of money that they can make. Not to mention the fact that that pvp is a major part of this game else they would have done pvp entirely differently not have servers dedicated to pvp where the point is to kill other players. My guess is that your currently playing on PVE in which case your argument wont hold near as much weight. Also if your playing pvp your clearly interested in fighting players more than fighting monsters which means wiping the servers would more than likely kill pvp servers than save them.
I should also point out the average player does not have time to spend all day every day grinding to reach max level. There if you wipe pvp servers every 1-2 months there are going to be alot of players who either quit or goto pve because they will never reach max level and never be able to fully enjoy the pvp aspect of the game. Not to mention the fact that those players that like base defense and spend most of their time improving their base will then lose all their hard work right after the wipe in addition to their character. Wiping the server will run more people out of the server because of that. Not only that even if you are to wipe the server those who are on top will only be ontop again and the cycle will repeat itself in a loop. Your suggestion has no potential to save the servers Bryan if anything it will cause harm and irritation among the community. The only possible way to make that work is to massively increase the multiplier on leveling and gathering and even then you are still stuck with the same group in the lead ever single time.
Yeah the current enforced rules for the offical pvp server i run on prevent offline raiding as anyone who is caught having done this is instantly wiped. However the rate that people leave is much higher with offline raiding which is a despised practice among survival game players in both current ps4 survival games like ark and conan. So adding a way for pvp to happen in an alternative route would be nice via the ability to hop servers and fight with other people meaning if your server does die big deal you can go to another server to raid. Yeah your supplies are much more limited but still you can go raid at least.
Just become a âtopâ clan yourself, protect the new players in the server and kill the bully clans which will give you the thrill you seek and give you a strong opponent, once the new players grow either fight them or donât, take care of your server put some balance into it, everything in pvp servers are player driven.
This wonât revive a dead server but it will give a longer life to a server and provide fun for everyone for a while. After that theres no other choice but going into private servers that wipe a lot.
Reminded me why what your topic about. Oh, thatâs right it about dead servers.
The point of PVP is player vs. player.
Two months is alot of time for an open world survival PVP server wipe.
The point of PVP is to fight players and not max out.
The point of pvp is to fight players however in an open world sandbox pvp game the point is to max out, Build a fortress and wage war with other players.
And this is why your PVP servers are dead. No wipe = No fun.
LV 1 vs LV 60= No fun.
You are wrong the point of PVE is max out. The point of PVP is to crush players. Player vs Player is built on WAR!
Pvp is cancerous. I seen two differnt servers where they troll new players into crossing a massive wall. Lead them to one spot and over encumber them with bomb material. Which they then kill them. I tried to fight back but died due to the rendering problems dropping me off cliff like a rock with no ability to grab. So now Iâve a unclimbable base and really no point in trying to help those new players get into server 3790. Youâve got to be so bad at this game to make a wall to keep new players out. I hope they do server wipes when they get the issues on rendering, errors and framerates fixed. Such a great game ruined by trolls and poor maintenance on the real issues.
