Crossroads - vote on the poll to make haven great again

[Kaios]

yes, because EVERYONE that plays haven is logged in RIGHT NOW. I expect the total active players is around 1000-1200. If we were to use the "industry average" of about 6x the "peak US hours" the number would actually be 1500-1800, but we tend to be fanatics here, and so we likely have more than the average of "1.1... account(s) per player) and "logged in for an average of 3-4 hours per day."

There's also the whole "I want CR back" vs any other possible response, and just reading through the actual comments in this thread says people don't necessarily care about the legacy crossroads as long as travel and its implementation is improved in some manner. By that logic, I say that the real poll numbers are probably more likely to be 30% for legacy crossroads, 60% for fixing travel, and about 10% for "kill teleportation all together!!!!111one"

Thanks that’s really the point I was making I dunno why these dudes get so bent out of shape over discussing a topic. It’s a forum, you make posts, the post count goes up. It is not a complicated process to understand not everyone is here just to lurk.

The poll is literally 60% want legacy crossroads of some form and 30% want fixing travel. I don't understand how you get confused by this, your logic is garbage.

Logical people support their arguments with science and facts, politicians use targeted polls. MooCow answered better than I could though.

1. make the world 10-15 times smaller

You're sure the right one to make such a statement ...

[Kaios]

true borka, did you have anything useful to add or are you just piling on with the rest of the dumbasses

[borka]

Want to start a flamewar to trample on dead mums again Mr Oberschlau ?!? Piss off !!!

[Kaios]

Right... anyways,

ps, please make fast travel bettttteeeerrrr. I am sooorry i said fast travel was bad

Nothing wrong with doing this but to just hand over cross-continent travel because some players say travel is hard is not even likely to change anything. Those few players with a high enough Will attribute will be porting across the world and most other players remain unaffected by such a change unless they are already within somewhat close vicinity to the place they want to port. They just don't want to leave their walls to have to travel to it.

CF is LITERALLY right next to TWO vortexes.

Do you mean these? They aren't close enough and I cant drive my boat/knarr filled with gold bars across land. Unless there are 2 more right next to it which I don't know about. Then you are right and there is no bias.

Adding a system of fast travel, whatever it may be, isn't about enabling the big boys or keeping people safe. It is about increasing player-player interaction. Ultimately, an ideal system of fast travel doesn't keep people safe or help factions significantly more than noobs. Roads before travel weariness actually did a pretty good job of this.

I think a lot of people, myself included, simply looked at the loss of player-wilderness interaction and concluded that fast travel is intrinsically bad.
Traveling quickly doesn't reduce the amount of time people play the game, it just reduces the amount of time traveling.

I would love to be able to just build my base next to CF, or make a living trading for profit, but that isn't the current reality of this game.

MooCow trying to talk sense into that kid is virtually impossible. He's demonstrated across multiple threads that the only logical argument he can provide is factual evidence of his idiocy. I suggest ignoring him as his points hold no value to any relevant individuals.

ya bro just like this incredibly productive conversation we're having right now, I continued posting about the thread but you're more intent on posting about me I guess. I mean, I'm not the one totally disregarding the opinion of hundreds of other players because of some arbitrary forum activity requirement.

What's the point of this forum if every poster's opinion should be disregarded because hundreds of others don't notice it?
If you have a better idea than the poll, feel free to post it. I don't think Jorb is gonna make a global announcement just to get everyone's opinion on fast travel.

CF is planning to build charter stones by the vortexes so people with enough will can use them to port straight to the market. That should solve your problem, I think.
