I didnt ask for leaderboards. Take it up with those that did.
i really dont undestand where you going with your comments, im just poiting issues on the leaderboards and you come here saying “people asked for it” i dont need to take it to noone but the devs, people can ask, cry, or do what ever they want, afterall the last words are the ones that manages the game, so here i am, posting for them to read on oficial forums.
Have a great day
You have a great day!
Seems to me like leaderboards were more about testing & implementing a collaboration with Omni than the actual addition of leaderboards.
Leaderboards probably seemed like a good way to test that collaboration.
Could be done again in future developments.
(Mentioned in the latest Forged video)
By the way - it’s the last thing I wanted as well, just saying what I think they were doing. Combat balancing, bugs, all way higher up on my list.
maybe it’s that way, but bad timing to test such things. The game is not in a state were could get any benefit from a leaderboard rather than any of the other critical things. Even when they state that “they have separated teams and the leaderboard won’t consume resources from other developers teams” i find it sad.
I dont blame them from trying or bringing something new, i blame them for the lack of critical thinking and their awfull timing.
I agree. Now we have suspended economies and more people leaving.
collaboration is almost always good, but it would be better if they aim that kind of things to more impactfull things to the game, such as balance, better or more content, better communication and so on
It is true that leaderboard should be there when there are rank and unranked, but even if they input the 2 different mode, it will divide the players because there is apparently no cross-server queue for now, it will be even harder to find game.
yeah i forgot to mention that, something that they took so lightly was spoiling incoming nerfs without more information, THAT kills the economy. I see tons of new world videos on youtube with titles such as “Dont craft any light armor, dont do this, stop crafting” and so on.
agree 100% with you, the order of priority should be cross server( to avoid long queues), ranked - casual (to avoid people complaining about sweatfest) then leaderboards to bring something to the table for the people that want to ranks
Those ? the one you mean ? Who got one like - ok some might have asked for it but the thread you have been repeatedly posting is probably not a wise choice ![]()
Here is another
And another
And another
Do you see a trend here? One of those posts has more than 0 and less than 2 likes, and none have replies.
It’s not something people wanted for the most part.
I didn’t count the one by black briar because all of the response was negative.
But AGS listened to them. Or they are using thise posts as an excuse anyway.
Doent matter how popular the idea was or is with the forums, because AGS liked it and went with it.
FSS had lots of negative posts about that, but they went with that too.
Point being, AGS does listen to the forums and does implement suggestions from the forums.
FSS did turn out to be the failure that it was predicted to be, IMHO.
Leaderboads? They will be the gold standard to call people names on the forums.
How so? The huge spike in players that we had after brim seems to indicate that it was a success, but the perceived lack of content, among other things, saw a ton of people leave (from everywhere, not just FSS). Also, the existing FSS are doing about as well as 99% of the normal servers, which is to say they are mid pop.
FSS was not a failure, the failure was the lack of content and communication that came after that. FSS brought a lot of players, new and old ones, back to the game. But you can’t make them stay forever with “New content coming SOON tm”.
Everything comes to the exact points im saying in my post, bad timing. If FSS came after they fix balance, communication and lots of things would be a huge success and we could be talking about a resurgence, but no, they did FSS and nothing afterwards.
Even the winter event was almost the same as last year, that includes the same bugs that they had last year.
All probably true.
The low counts on those servers (to use a metric the forums love) and the demands to be able to move to legacy are the issues now.
AGS should allow that ASAP.
Thanks for the update! Glad to see its really not a problem that the folks on the forums complain about.
Those folks can stay on the FSS then and stop complaining.
I liked what Healer said here. Also by removing all the chest that allowed for people to get them solo the developers are basically telling people they either have to play 24/7 or not play at all. The latest chest removal hurts the casual weekend players and does nothing for the economy.
