Your signature is invalid. $10/$15 isn't the problem its the fact that after reading from older members of the community. All those years of playing Haven they never really cared or updated the game. So what sais they're going to do that now? They may have spent the last 2 years creating what we have now, but I wish to know my money is being used for a good cause.

All you need is to try give developers a chance (pay sub) and see if they wont do anything worth then you can stop paying them. And for them it would be a pain in ass since if they wont work for game they wont get money.

Logic is easy. For the first month they will get money and there gonna be 2 way:
1) They will be motivated to work harder to achieve more money! What will makes everyone happy and spend money each month.
2) They will become lazy and stop working and start losing subs. After that they will understand that first month was so good when they got nice money and their comfort feelings will motivate them to work work work.

Can we get the distance check removed from the party arrows? Me and my friends want to play together, and the game's mechanics don't provide for that anymore.

We're trying this out for a while first. We'll see what happens.


Loftar is working on getting the server back up, but the bug seems serious, unfortunately.

I'm going outside for an hour or so. I would tell you to enjoy the game, but as that is not currently possible, perhaps enjoy the glorious beauty that is the reworked forum graphics?

TTYL, kids!

Hey! Don't try to run away from my questions!

p.s. friendly notice: Consider game time tokens as obtainable in game item, not only tradable!

Remove this link here, http://www.havenandhearth.com/portal/store return the old system f2p, and all DDoS attacks will stop , online rise , people will cease , and the server will turn on at normal mode

Or move to good antiDDOS hoster and start collecting tears from those loser ddosers for spending money on ddos that doesnt work )

Good antiddos hosting in EU is ovh.com

Why give them a chance? when they could have showed us some effort with HnH. Although they did say HnH was so outdated it was quite useless to work on it (maybe that wasn't their words but if its 2 years out of date then it sounds useless). But I'm not even mad at the price, they need money they could have atleast said what was being done before they did it? I'll use my remaining time, give them a few weeks if theres nothing new.. I guess I'll just cry in a corner

What DDoS attacks? What are you guys even on about.

It has been explained a lot now that there is no problems with server load or anything. The crashes come from in game bugs that then need to be fixed. The end.

I never really posted here before. Looks like it will be my first and maybe the last one.

First of all I'll point it again that ruble and other CIS country currencies are at constant fall atm. And the pricetag is getting higher and higher by the minute. Not taking that in consideration will just have you to loose quite large bunch or potentialy paying customers. And the problem is that if for example some of my friends I got to play this game will stop playing I will too. Even if I personally will have enough money which I am not sure of. You asking much for a game which has many glitches, lags, wipes, server downtimes and so on.

If that is the case you do realize you're a fuckton more shit than not being able to play haven? Everything produced externally is more expensive from food to technology, your economies are crumbling and that means either famine or war when your leaders get frustrated enough and an impoverished population is easy to whip into a war frenzy. Related to that I see a lot of 1-4 post people coming to forums to tell us how bad it is that the game will lose it's community if the russians can't play but I never seen them that integrated into the community anyway. I always treated them as really malicious npcs and they rarely disappointed.

As for me I bought a month sub and I will probably get a full year when that is done. I've played this game in the past and it is the best mmo ever with crashes and all and if the devs say they're gonna actively develop that's awesome nothing compared to the "we've been developing and this is what is new" feeling. Sure some people will stop playing but only a few of those were really good for the community anyway. 14 year kids that do it for the lulz or Cyrillic script npcs didn't provide much positive attachment to the game.

The new game is gorgeous love the flattening and paving system and I'm sure I'll love farming and whatever else works with area tools. I want to tame horses and build a farm and a nice big city with like minded people, trade or be self sufficiently communistic. I want to build roads though I'd rather they be actual roads than just signs and I want bridges and terraforming and I'll bitch until loftar implements them but I'll play anyway even if I don't have the time I once had.
