Even fresh start servers - you dont think mega companies will want to take those over for gold selling purposes?
They will have alts owning the server within a few weeks. It isnt hard to outpace a bunch of casuals regardless of where you start.

You might be right… But I doubt this will be the case, at least from existing RMT companies. Maybe new ones though.
That’s ammunition though for doing a complete wipe. Get that RMT crap outta here.
I think they need to destroy everything and start over (like Elder Scrolls Online did years ago after horrific launch). Cuz this game engine and sandbox model not compatible with MMO that’s why at every patch we’re getting new bugs cuz the coding behind this game is a mess.
And as you said, exploits, duping still out there, Cheating also.
The game needs a hard reset. Music Instruments or new dungeons not gonna save you in long run.
If the graphics engine is really a problem for the development team, I wouldn’t be surprised if they were porting the game to Unreal 5. The “Sandbox” Part was one of the factors that got so many people to play it in the first place and it’s just a label, how the game is oriented. What has clearly changed for a more mmorpg style and we see how the game is today, constantly losing players.
Many/most existing mega companies are RMT companies and they routinely make alts on other servers, level them up, and win territory against players geared up on that server.
Absolutely no reason they would avoid a new server. They would be on equal footing and would pretty easily take over.
I would be open to a wipe because of the dupe wealth that still exists today. However, certain aspects to the economy model would need to be addressed first, namely company wealth generation and how it is distributed.
I’ve put together my thoughts on what a reimagined Company, City/Territory process would look like here:

i’ve been playing mmorpg for the last 20 years, and pretty hardcore on that. I’ve been on the duper/cheater/whatever for win side and also on the side of people trying to play a fair game.
That being saing, there is NOTHING WORST than doing a wipe.
A clean server is everything a cheater needs to profit more, this is a true fact even before the chinese gold farms.
Make a new non transferable server?GREAT, people will need currency even more.
its always the same, and trust me, any change only does make shit worst ![]()
While there are only a handfull of employees tryign to stop cheating (or not even that), there are hundreds of people perfecting their macro tools, bots, and all kind of auto-grinding that are top notch compared from 1 year ago.
People don’t like that idea because they invested a lot of time but would be nice if they do some new PVP servers. I will be waiting for that day
No need for wipe:
just open a new server with no tranfert allowed.
If people want to join a fresh experience, they can without annoying others
Just opening a new server with no transfer allowed does not change anything…
But… a new PVP Server on each region with no flag system. No transfer allowed. Balanced for PVP based on skill over GS would be refreshing for some players.
Personally I just think it would be funny to see people try to get refunds from G2G.
Idk, why do people play Tarkov or Rust?
Matter of fact, Rust actually shits on this quote.
Nope. Not in favor of any server wipes.
What I AM in favor of is expanded lands. More Map-areas, resource, etc.etc.
Are those mmos now or something?
with questlines and achievements and difficult to obtain gear? What you just said is soooo stupid
Are you implying that Rust isn’t difficult? ![]()
Anyway the point was
Millions of people fucking do ![]()
Bro those games are SURVIVAL games not mmos with long term content. VERY big difference. I dont care if rust is “difficult”, its a completely different game ![]()
![]()
It doesn’t matter if it’s an MMO or a damn indie rpg.
There are people out there that don’t care about server wipes was my point. Literally millions of them.
Bro mmos have long term content and grind that no one wants to repeat multiple times ![]()
survival games like tarkov dont have anything like that… if a survival game didnt have frequent resets it would get boring while an mmo just gets expansions and updates to not be boring
