you know you can just update the dns to point plymouth.seatribe.se to your new server right

I think they just want to stop using seatribe.se domain in salem at all.

Edit:

WIPE?

Do never wipe! Wipe is evil! Wipe should not happen!

But, give us new, fresh server (afer all changes are done). Where we can start anew! ( And those from old server hopefully won't come, cause they will not want to waste what they already achived! :} )

Yeah, sure, the current servers dont have 20 players online and he will pay for another server just to you be raped by the tribe and others neckbears again. Keep dreaming.

It's a nice dream- I think you'd see everyone who isn't loaded with legacy status flocking to a server with a fresh start- not biased by that factor; and yes, I suspect Tribe and others would follow... all those '20 something' servers dropping to <10 as a consequence.

I've read already about how there's only about 12-20 'true Titans' left in the game... are those who aren't worried about their fate if everyone else migrates to a new start? Not at all.

(Tribe and other dominate based on their length of stay on their servers... (years) and their knowledge of the game mechanics... but if that were to change. If new mechanics and a server with a new map were to be generated... most of their apparent advantages would disappear. If they had to start over with no legacy materials... brand spanking new toons just like everyone else... I don't see an easy victory for anyone.


Just b/c you'd have to sacrifice your own holding or purity materials to start over doesn't mean it's bad for the rest of us. Wise up.

yes, they would just to take from the guys that can't figure out or won't put the effort into working the system. Eventually, no matter what system there is, someone would cry "it's not fair! I don't have a chance!! NERF! NERF! NERF!"

Nailed it. ^

We just happen to be good at the game. Before there was "legacy" we were dominating already. On new server or a server wipe the same **** is going to happen. You are going to get your **** pushed in and your gonna whine and cry.

If you are noob then you will stay nooob.
if you are idiot you will be idiot.

there are things that never change


Yeah and probably i need to go myself

What's said above is somewhat true. The main problem is not really the mechanics. But to get it into a perspective. Let's say we have this Titan guy and he is very evil and just wants to murder and pillage. A new guy starts with his 5 humours and doesn't like the titan guy and decides to try to take him down. Now imagine the amount of time this new guy needs to commit to the game to start from a scratch to be a threat to this titan is insane. You can say byebye to any real life if you even want to take on this quest. Most likely the new guys place will be destroyed before he even knows what a stone hedge is if the titan happens to know where he lives or of his existence.

The map of salem is still quite small. With a proper surveillance network of many people a new player is easily discovered.

The more people you have playing for you, the bigger chance is that you get discovered. And the amount of time you need to spend to get walls and braziers up to even slow down a titan is very big. So it's very unlikely that one would ever succeed. Im not saying it's inpossible. In any case we are talking months just for the defences and even more to get humours up to acceptable levels for bear farming. + the factor that new newguy will make more mistakes in everything wich slows down his development.

Meanwhile the titan already has everything ready, and will go. Nice try punk, heads off. When he feels like it.

I would hate to have somekind of mechanic to discourage black play because i support a free environment of the sandbox. Can't really see a solution or a workaround for this easily, unless the titan or higher player magically turned good. I guess some dimishing returns for black players after committing crimes would be good to have. But then again what could that be that would make the black players think twice before committing theese "sins"?

It is not insane. To be a threat, you don't need the same level of biles as the "titan". You'll need to put in much less than the titan did in the first place. Your only drawback is that the guy started playing before you. That is something you can't fix no matter how much you'd like to. People that have been around longer will have

1) larger/better bases with more/stronger alts
2) a better knowledge of the game

Trying to resolve either of the so-called issues will just turn this game into another hand-holding mindless RPG. It annoys me to no end that people keep assuming that the titans just started as that. They are also players that put in a LOT of time for the game, in a lot of cases having done a lot for their server (or against their server).


I keep trying to stop myself from posting on this topic, but it's getting harder and harder.


It's also easy as pie to keep hidden from players. I myself have now been scouting the southwestern part of roanoke deep darkness, and I haven't seen a base for days.

I absolutely agree with Kandarim.

I do hope you are kidding.
