Default Teams > Discord

Discord is only going to cater to a SMALL portion of blue, and a medium portion of Red. It's going to kill red to about 40 players nightly, and blue will continue to thrive.

Release Teams, cater to all of red, and a larger portion of blue.
Thanks p99 team <3

Teams?

Like that one server that was popular for like a month until all the Innoruuk worshipers dominated the server leaving only elves, troll shaman and a few select humans and such?

Sounds neat and all but it sounds like Red99 now where everyone joins the same guild if they want to raid but you are forced to be an elf in an elf simulator.

Edit: Yup, logged in to check. Lots of dark elves, evil/neutral human classes, half elf warriors, all troll classes. history will be bound to repeat itself once all the good deity people go back to blue after the novelty fades. also seems strange to split red99s low pop up even more, almost cruel

Most would accept a wipe of red if teams were definitely on the table - the original idea was for only 1 pvp server in the end so red would roll into teams or vice versa.

Doesn't matter if discord has a smaller portion of players as it is without expansions. 3 expansions worth of content has way to much item bloat and spreads the players really thin.

I think with the red population there currently is any red server would be better expansionless.

Or no expansions. There really isn't the pvp pool here to draw from like live had with 1000's and 1000's of curious players in the day. Trying to be unbiased saying that. I'll likely play discord, it's closer to faction wars which is more my cup of tea.

IIRC Tallon and Vallon were both more popular than rallos even though it was the sole FFA server (ofcourse, there were other factors ie item loot/4 level range/ etc).

Personally would love to play on a teams server and could probably convince others to give it a try under the right circumstances.

Discord servers are always novelties and typically die with a swiftness

But that's the glory of Discord, it is classically a temporary server so once the novelty wears off and there are only 50 neckbeards playing it we can wipe it clean (and reboot it as no-expansion teams)!

How do you kill that which has no life?
