Idea: Second Server

Postby PiarasWolfwood002 » Sun Mar 20, 2011 3:12 am

I wonder how much of a stress this game puts on the server host that it is run on.

While I am not a programmer by any sense of the word, I, as a player of this game, (and THE GAME which you all just lost, old meme's ftw?) would very much rather play on a server with no perma-death. It's the same lines with why I'll never play Diablo II in hardcore, or any other perma-death alternate portion of a game. The only reason I play H&H in its current form is because I enjoy (well, used to before the world 5 LP change) building a village with friends and becoming self-sufficient. Nothing is more satisfying than watching the progress of several people form into a nicely-built and setup village. And then, only to die in a boar/bear attack or do to a griefer and then lose a week's worth of work (because we were all fairly low key characters) and have to start over was very disheartening.

I admit, I only log on now to switch my curiousities because I've already discovered everything I can and must rely on repeatedly starting at trivial trinkets like spiders or chariots for hours, in hopes that I'll get Yeomanry soon and can find some folks to start a village with. I'm off topic.

Bottom line:
Alternate server without perma-death would be nice, for those of us "care-bear" players who like this game as more of a pioneering sim than a "realistic-man-vs-wildlife-vs-griefer" sim. Some of us just want to play the game without hard setbacks.

Just keep feeding yourself and your friends LP then. Still keeping one eye on the horizon in search for a game that's like this without so much backwards thinking. Way to motivate me NOT to donate jorb. b^.^b

Sorry. I do not build, endorse or condone MMOs without permanent death. ;)

Just found an interesting MMO called Dawntide, without perma-death. Think I'll give that a try.

So you build, endorse, and condone MMOs that give children, manchildren, and all of the flavors in between the power to grief others and get their "leet" rocks off over "pwning that noob" who's just trying to enjoy the finer aspects of the game...? Awesome mindset you have there. But hey, I was just looking for a good F2P game similar to this, I've got a bitchin' computer and the ability to pay for higher quality MMOs (if I wanted to), so... *Shrugs.* Free is usually better, but free with permadeath is like not playing at all.

What is your main goal in posting this? Everyone plays this game because of the perma death, it will never change.
