What will you do , when there be 100 players online?

Post by Serbuch »

to devs: I sure that there will be a moment when half of players leave the game , and haven will left with 100-150 players .
Will you make wipe after that? Or maybe make F2P to get more players , like other MMO do ?
Or you go make Salem the grinding mmo 2 with P2P ? ¦]
to players : Will you resub if there be 200 players online at peak time?

Sure, if the game still holds my interest.

Lack of player interaction will slowly but surely result in my loss of interest, however, as it already is, somewhat.

when i started playing, the server couldnt run with 300 players online and it always crashed after that number.
i hardly mind being one of 100 :) as long as devs can continue working on the game.

we used to have more player interactions when we had less players. (...or botters)

Yeah, why wouldn't I? It's not like 99% of players matter to me. As long as I have friends who I can see online when I play, that's all that matters.

I started playing this game when there was 20 people online at a time. It was still great.

For me it is more important the devs keep updating and maintaining it. The lack of that is what drove me away for some years. To update it regularly they need to make a living off it of course so I wish them lots of players, but I feel the game has some inherent mechanics that makes people quit after some time and it could also use some more advertising.

Que Sera, Sera

Scale our ambitions accordingly, but keep developing at whatever pace the trifecta of fun/hobby/income motivates. It wouldn't be the end of the world.

ive never looked at how many players are active at any one time. It's nice to have people around, but it's not destructive to the game play from a personal angle if there were few people playing.

I don't think it will come to that, because the devs are actively updating and fixing bugs, and the game is interesting to carry on playing. I mean I played the terrible lag of W6 and there was hardly anyone active at that point...the animals needed feeding...as my chieftan at the time can attest to :D

As long as my townmates are still around I don't much care for others.
