How about opening some official PvP servers that actually have the settings even close to what they used to be? Harvest rates at 1, proper thrall breaking times, some challenge with the world bosses and other creatures and everything else that can be adjusted via the settings. THE GAME IS ABSOLUTELY BORING LIKE THIS!!!

And no, private servers are not an option. We have tried them and it hasn’t worked out once, i don’t want to be at the mercy of some random dude or as it comes to show even at the mercy of my friend. And i’m not going to pay even more just to be able to play the game properly.

I agree with you 100% about how easy the settings are now. And that public servers are the best way to make good PVP work.

This is such an easy fix and they can tailor servers to meet all player styles. Just have different styles of settings on various official servers.

That’s it.

Make some x1 gather, make some x3 or x10 for turbo PVP, make some never wipe, make some wipe monthly or weekly, make some fast thrall breaking, make other insta, make some super fast levelling, make others a grind, make some no limits to clan size, make others for solo or duo only. There are so many play styles we could have and people could just play on the servers that suit them best and not have to worry about 1000 weird rules, servers closing unexpectedly, admin abuse of powers, etc etc.

They could literally change the settings on one server in each region in 5 minutes and reboot it and let us know and we could try it out. My bet is it would bring people back to official servers in droves if there were more options in play style.

I agree. The fact they dig in thier heels on the one setting is mind blowing. If anything do it for 3-6 monthh cyle. See which are more populated. Then you can adjust the number of servers to match demand.

I do so miss x1.

At first I thought x4 was great but quickly learned that nothing really mattered with that much ease.

When you have to work a bit harder for it you have so much more to lose. The risk feels riskier.

If you’re NA est then 1588 is X1. No idea why.

4x may not be the problem. The problem the most important resource on PvP raid is dragon powder. That (and explosives in gemeral) should have an aggressive decay timer and limited to storing only in non time extending chests. Reduce DP to strategic farming use loop, and hoarders now have a true cost of raiding equal to newer clans. Being an OG server player should only have armor, build, and weapon numbers advantage, not nuke advantage.

It sucks when a month of stolen dp goes by. You know by the logs who took them and used them immediately. Then comes that day of familiar desert sounds, like the vultures that eye the latest flesh on the cross.

The only thing I want changed right now with explosives is their detonation being harder in placing them… what 40m away!

A script engine… ya, we probably don’t want another minecraft that mimics web languages like javascript.

To follow up, i am creatin a dp type mod.

  1. DP and Jars have decay timers.
  2. They cannot be stored in fridges and othe delay type stations.
  3. A special DP barrel to extend DP only slightly.
  4. A Specail Jar crafting statio. that shows up on Map like a T3 Altar. Removing jar crafting from player inventory.

This alone creates a slower DP to nuke ability, and marks those prepping for war on map.

I’m still in for x4 on top of an official abstract.

Yes, boredom ruins the game one way or another. They only cry wolf.

That is what AoSCh3 was like for me. Servers experienced weekly wipes by other players. Some players really want this. I suppose a hack could be thrown in to allow for more than one settings file. UUIDs|GUIDs, once stamped, are pretty quick (another use of http status 402). It’s equivalent to Apple’s dot files, that they can’t patent.

Agree with the suggestion of having other type of servers with different settings including lower raid times for some and even only certain days when raiding is allowed.

I really want cross-play to be active even if it is just a hack. I don’t want to loose everything (except ~240 slots) upon transfer. Again. At this point, some of the mouse buttons are only available by an abstract scatter/gather workflow. It’s not a hack, and i’m being nice to not show it. It is a small model virtual reality engine… no… it’s dynamic compiler in an object oriented world. No, it’s mouse with snap-in kb. :innocent:

The only players against it already pvp’d me on these forums. Now, I’m back to pointing out potential upgrades or the few trolls that call me troll (gaslighting). :laughing: On these forums, trolls have no solution. Need more signal, less noise.
