Salem - Future

[Binks]

population would pick up significantly even if it was eons between content patches if it was reaffirmed there will be no wipes or that they are at least still planning to be avoided if possible, lot of folks on jamestown are not playing or playing less because they think that you are going to take a page from haven and use a wipe as a pop boost.

As much as I don't want this to happen. I would like to see just one server.

I agree, just get it done and over with. Replace the 3 current servers with 1 server and give the RMTers some compensation. All those people crying for no wipes will have a lot more fun, no matter how much they might deny it now, they will thank you later.

doubt many folks care other than perhaps rejoicing, but for me personally a wipe will be the end of the game. i am not 15 - 20 years old anymore and my time is far to valuable to waste it restarting in a game repeatedly, which is the reason i stopped playing haven. even if salem was wiped and then sworn "no more wipes from now on!" the game is far to grindy and based around zergling groups for me to bother restarting in for the half dozenth time, would be more enjoyable to play a less fun (and less time consuming) game and add another notch in my belt there.

there is no reason for wiping other than to generate "new server" hysteria and the accompanying temporary population boost, current mechanics allow for folks to get up to 350 - 400 humors with 20% crops and at least on jamestown the majority of the legacy humus has been consumed by retards using it to plant 200% plenty fields or spamming it on trees with 0% water/pots

So you would stop playing if more people were on jamestown to give you competition?

Jorb stated that not only is he unable to transfer characters between servers atm, but he is also unsure how to go about making it so that you can lol

seems like he is unsure to make anything at all, since that person from paradox that helped them was taken away from the project.

This was before Paradox split

I serious doubt that the mysterious '3rd person' to help jorb and loftar had anything to do at all with the programming or the game in general. It was probably that dedicated person that was making the art assets and posted a thread on our forums.

has nothing to do with that, i play solo and am simply unwilling to invest another thousand+ or so hours building bases/characters/infrastructure for the 5th time because the devs decided to wipe the servers for a population boost instead of improving the game for one. only reason i am currently playing salem at all is because of the whole "no more wipes" thing.

Ah ok, i have no idea how programming salem is, but seems like quite a step up from HnH,

Also just to comment darwort posts,
i don't see how a reset would be possible with the shop and all. maybe i missed something? can they avoid to return the money invested in items?
