Nevrax....What if they gave a war and nobody came ?

[grimjim]

I don't think I know enough english to make my point clear.
Basically you've done your duty. You got how many new customers you could. The "new wave" of PvP players will bring in "their" world and their visons about how the game should be. A totally different world where you cannot enter, because, simply you are too old.
So, on the paper, leving the feelings away, you and the newcomer are the same. But he's at the begining of the road and you are at the end. That's make him more valuable in Nevrax's eyes.

They don't stay and they damage the game for the existing customer base.

Profit short term, loss long term.

And to add a bit of distraction, I never knew Kostika had a wife!

I want them (leet kids) in game even less than you. But I'm playing Devil's Advocate trying to understand the mechanics of this radical change of attitude. And the only thing I can see it an urgent need of cash. The fresh infusion of capital - even damaging on long term - and the newly arrived players can give the company new credibility in investors eyes. This new credibility can translate in extended loan terms, or maybe new funding.

In this purpose, the way I presented things before are becoming more realistic, don't you think?

Why granting free month for paying customers if they need pure cash ?

The biggest asset SoR has is, and was, it's strong mature community. Nevrax know this that's why thy gave their existing players an other free month on top of the one that came with the boxed game...


Now why they've decided to risk breaking up this community over PvP remains shrouded in mystery though it may have something to do with money...

Sorry for the on topic but,
What if they gave a war and nobody came?

original post

We were on topic, just sitting on a diff branch.

IF nobody came - but I don't think is the case - they are going to try to push us a litte more. Eg xp for killing a diff faction member, drops on player death, honor points like in WoW.

But if you ask me, the big herd of sheeps will go where are told to go and do what are told to do.

We'll see how many get involved at the first active event there were certainly enough ppl at the two passive leadin events (though ofc not all will go further)

Some of us have been waiting for this for along time and some have already given up and gone else where
