Thinking of getting back into the game

Postby MentalIntegrity » Thu Mar 13, 2014 11:21 am

Hello there ! I am an old player who lastly played this 14 or 15 months ago . Since the game was pretty addictive I thought I would give it another 100-150 hours . Before I start though I wanted to ask some things :

- Why is there only one server ? I thought we had 3 .
- Do we have any new players or are there the same 200 ? (sigh)
- Any major gameplay changes ?

Thanks in advance.

EDIT : New question 5 posts below.

3 servers were wiped last month and now we have one. Population wasn't big enough to fustify 3 servers.

I think we mostly have old players.

There were major gameplay changes in the last 15 months, I think you would get more accurate info by reading threads in announcements section.
In short, gluttony, inspirational and purity mechanics have been changed. Darkness has been changed, some new creatures added, clothing bonuses (artifice) introduced.

Very well. Thanks for the info . I am not too happy with new players joining and whining on the forums but ...I really hope this game doesn't die . I just think that it would be better if the devs actually got it on Steam . It could really boost the playerbase (see Fallen Earth , Hawken).

You have a point here.
Also if you`ll look for company while playing, drop me a message.

Can you imagine it, so many people to beat up and steal their microtransaction money and items when they try to buy their way ahead.

Yeah, and non-stop accusations of "Devs don't care", "Pay2Win", "Grfx R Ghay", "Mods Suck", "One Faction Controls the game", and "Claeyt won't STFU"

lol, you know I luv you Claeyt, but you know it would happen!

btw, these are all excuses of the lazy and weak-minded :)

Really sorry to bump this guys but I realised I am not going to have access to my laptop for quite a while.For now I am forced to use this crappy netbook. Specs:
Operating System
Windows 7 Starter 32-bit SP1
CPU
Intel Atom N450 @ 1.66GHz
Pineview-N 45nm Technology
RAM
1,00GB Single-Channel DDR3 (5-5-5-15)
Motherboard
SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO., LTD. N315 (CPU 1)
Graphics
Generic Non-PnP Monitor (1024x600@60Hz)
Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 3150 (Samsung)
Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 3150 (Samsung)
Storage
232GB SAMSUNG HM250HI (SATA)

So any chance this will work or is my cause doomed ? :|
I lagged a lot as soon as I spawned at the port but I want some other opinions anyway.

I lag in Boston most of the time. Are you saying you lagged at Boston port, or London? Getting out in the wild where you're all alone should help at lot.
