Logic says progression was uneven. You have servers where players in control of territories are making millions of gold a week. They then have tons of gear created and most of these controlling company players have BiS. These same servers sell M10 runs to help max GS of players, with multiple specs. Tons of other differences that put large servers ahead on progression/player difference.
The low pop servers had to pay out of pocket to upkeep all towns. Most end game players spent most of their time doing invasions to try and keep t5 stalls. TP not overflowed with legendarys/BiS gear so if a player was 600+ they gear wasn’t at the par of large servers.
On top of this large servers have been having wars constantly for months, where small servers never have seen a true large scale war unless they were OG. So instead of putting all there players on different servers they put them in with the high pop servers that are way more advanced creating a goal that will never be reached for most players.
Again if they would have merged small servers into eachother, they could have created a very healthy server for those players to progress together. Instead the discouraged a lot of those players from continuing. I’m the long run this hurts us all, as we could have had player count continuing to rise, more servers for new players to join return to if/when expansions hit.
They will buy their BIS gear in next few weeks whats the problem … everything will stabilize after 2-3 weeks, so now u will have less problems than you had in low pop servers and least every station will be t5, Merged already happened and you cant change it, as I said you cant decide for everyone, most wanted merged, same like most players dont care about territories, wars who is winning etc they just want have people to play with. For example me my fraction can have no territory I dont care dont need them to craft, gather, gank people, bullying or do OPRs, I just want to find fast people to do dungeon and fast matchmakin for OPR.
They have not noticed it or choose not to for the sake of their side of the argument. Then when they derail cause no one supports their point, they get toxic.
They will not see anything against their argument as anything else but lies. Even if the truth is officially posted.
The merges were beneficial to the players as a whole. Pyrallis was stuck in low population that could do nothing but see the map wither away. Now? Valhalla merge was perfect. After the merge hype, things are settling nice.
So futher discussion is pointless as I checked full thread nobody supports you, so your opponion is in minority, if u dont accept merges quit game. Thats all you can do or enjoy with new community, and stop speakin for everyone topic’s name suggest you feel allowed to speak for everyone. You are not.
Yes, they merged 5 small servers into a 1 bigger 1000 people server, makes sense if you merge 5 servers with 200 peak it usually means there will be 5x200 peak = 1000.
Im pointing out we’re losing player base. No need to have you three agree. Y’all know new world is losing players, a lot of previous decisions have been horrible for player base, and this latest move just topped it off for a lot of people.
I’ll continue to enjoy the game and just play OPR. Those who wanted to gather, quit….those who wanted to compete and couldn’t…. Quit…. Those who ran expeditions hundreds of times and have no other end game…. Quit… gonna be the end soon so enjoy it while you can. Ignorance must be sweet, hope y’all don’t invest to much time in a dying game, y’all gonna shit your pants when servers close. Bet your tone will change then
That statement shows you have no idea what you’re talking about lol. All small servers were merged into a large server of ~1000 players.
There was not a single server where small servers only merged. You’re a funny one, just throw shit at the wall and hope something sticks why don’t ya.
That before merges combined at 6PM server there were 835 pop, after a week there is 655 pop. Player base continues to fall, also Orun was a medium/large pop peaking at 1250. Still peaks at the same ever after adding 250-300 player pop peak server. If mergers didn’t cause it, why did we lose ~20% player pop after only 7 days after merge? Also adding in that the game is discounted so some new players are joining, so even more veteran players quit….
People could have used their transfers, its usual after merges. We did that too when we were transferring off to Dry Tree. Around 1000 people from different servers which ofc lowered populations of our original servers by hundreds.
LMAO toxic? Who are the ones being hostile and name calling? Yes, you.
Your hypocrisy is funny though.
Sorry your server seems to be like that, but it seems like the truth is really what you see is an opinion. Your own. You are not the voice of all and please do not think that.
How you perceive the game is always going to be different than another’s. You being adamant about how it is is the mistake you made. Then when you began derailing with demands and toxic behavior, it did not help your initial argument.
Now that we are back on topic, we finally see the real problem. Your perception.
How is it assumptions when I/my company was a large part of Olympus server, we have Olympus discords. No large/small companies server transferred, so only individuals may have. There however were a lot of posts about players quitting because of merge… so I base my ideal off that, you’re basing you’re off assumptions.
if you merge 5 servers with 200 peak it usually means there will be 5x200 peak = 1000.
