I don't see you making many suggestions, but I see you saying this server is doomed alot.

True. I only ever see negativity out of Heartbrand. Kinda like he....wants the server to fail?

Just because you could not be #1? I dunno, sounds kinda petty man. Its just a game, someone has to lose, thats what makes it a competitive game.

1) hot zones. great way rather than across the board exp boosts to funnel players to zones so that the server feels less empty and there's more PVP as well as groups. Rotating hot zones every day like loz would be great.

2) classic resists. self explanatory

3) either disable anon above a certain level or allow people to who all zones to encourage PVP

4) remove exp loss and add yellow text / scoreboard. Pvpers get their epeen has no impact on pve epeen win-win

5) remove shared exp penalty on groups to encourage grouping

6) 2-boxing. It's classic, it allows you to accomplish things when other people aren't on, let's you get groups going easier when you're just missing that tank healer porter CC w/e, allows smaller guilds to raid content they were unable to prior which gives more people access to content and allows for ability to contest where there was no ability prior, discourages zergs, ez yt on afk Druid bots [You must be logged in to view images.

Loz doesn't have classic resists, has an exp bonus that is too high, has exp penalties though they dont matter since exp is too high. Also terribly flawed logic besides those differences since loz is not a classic server but a completely custom server.

LoZ is not classic enough yet R99 needs numerous changes to make it less classic ...

may as well post it in this one too....


server wont go from 50 to 300 over night.

50 becomes 54 becomes 59 becomes 63.... eventually 300 or 0. lately the population is rising slowly but surely, and i just got off the walky talky with Nilbog and he has some big fun stuff in the works [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
