It would allow me to get shit in order before I leave this world instead of having the people around me deal with the consequences of my unexpected death and forcing them to come to terms with my absence with possibly shitty timing. Knowing the reset date in advance would let me plan my vacation days more properly and stops me from starting some big game three weeks before the reset (which I would then not finish because I'd drop it for Haven). Likewise, people would not be discouraged from playing knowing there's not going to be a reset for the next three months.


So we agree it would effect how you play. You listed positive reasons to knowing a death date, now can you think of any negative effects of that information?

Haven is not suppose to be a game with resets though, they are a byproduct of poor and slow development. Consider instead EVE online, I think it's a better comparison. If you like I can explain why it's more apt. But while resets are generally positive in Rust(I'm taking your word for it, I've only watched gameplay) resets in EVE would fundamentally change the game and likely in a negative away.

resetting EVE would result in riots in the streets.
I find your lack of face disturbing...

Except eve isn't made by just two people. IMO resets are healthy for haven. its brings people back, even if the devs were to announce they were no longer going to work on the game but if it had a set yearly reset I would probably still play each year

Mostly yes, but there will be a lot of people interested in new world. When Echoes started, it was very popular despite of being chinese mobile piece of shit w/o content.
Haven and Eve have similarities, but they are different games. I haven't played spreadsheets for a while (since 2015), but I'm 100% sure you can log in now and have any sort of experience, like actual PvP. Haven after several months has 50-100 players online, and zero pvp activity aside of you know who hunting and slaughtering sprucecaps like animals they are.

Make no mistaken, I want a reset. I want to play and I want to play with an activate community. The game needs resets and will continue to need them until major development changes. That being said obfuscating the date of a reset isn't a terrible thing imo.

This is potentially a poor argument but let's say there were yearly resets. I stopped playing this world after three months, after several months of not playing I was ready to come back, far short of the yearly reset. We should have a reset every six months now.

Why yearly resets?

World reset could be done via some universal project.

All the inhabitants build a tower, for example. Dark Tower.

And when Dark Tower is complete, Roland comes out of it with his sandalwood guns and shoots every one dead. And then the World makes a circle and every one is reincarnated. And every one gets some reward in a new world depending on his efforts to build Dark Tower.
