[ Closed ] Why does Runescape have so many players compared to Faldon? (Page 4 of 4)

Well im looking for a new game to play. ive played runescape for 3 years now and im still a relitivley a low lvl for for how long ive been playing. im only lvl 65 but ived done pretyt much everything you can do in that game, (without paying, i would never pay for a crappy game). I have nearly 50 in al skills, and full rune. it gets so boring having to needing 10k exp till the nxt strength lvl. ive done all the quests and im looking for something new to waste my time on. Eventually people willg et tired of playing runescape because they dont update the free server too much, and go looking for a game like this. a friend has told me about this game last week but its been down for the past week. i really wana play it looks cool. if any1 does play runescape my name is anglefire if you wana chat, dont ask me for anything cause im pretty poor. WHEN IS FALDON GONNA START UP AGAIN???

runescape isn't all that bad if you think about all the quests and items.

but leave the graphics alone... no other games have shittier graphics than runescape.

Couse the people that plays Runescape have never heard about Faldon do u know why? none makes reklam for it!! and haha the faldon server can host 140 peoples around 90 it will lag poop ass .. so..,

alright, ive played both Runescape and Faldon about 2-3 years each..
i played Runescape before faldon and made shit loads of cash causei knew what i was doing, u know why? because in RS ALL THE DAMN ITEMS HAD VALUE!!!

i mean in faldon a fish is just about worthless.. i mean u MAYBE can sell 1000 for 10gp..  in RS EVERY fish was 2 gp and up.
why is this? because in faldon we have a less coin flowage in Faldon.
in RS u go and kill dozen of goblins ull get about 1k...
in faldon u got to sell rare/uncommon items (which are a pain to get) to make ANY CASH!
so in other words, its harder to earn cash by killing creatures yet runescape you have the same profit from butchering shit as well as selling stuff.

so selling books at 100 gp in faldon is cheap except NO ONE HAS DAMN CASH! (ladder excluded)
in RS the common people had cash, and wealthy ppl had millions.. (i was a wealthy person)

so i believe by increasing coin drop in monsters and modifing certain skills so that their usages are profitable.. (aka cooking, fishing, farming) (BTW i was a cook in RS as well as a swordsman. if i got sick of lesser demons or i wasnt getting rune mediums, i would go cook a couple thousands pies and make 10k in about 1hr..)
thats the largest difference, its takes days to make cash in Faldon, while in RS u just gotta do something for a while..

Ya the skills must be more usefulls,.. hm the fish for an example should give about 35hp regain , and when u mining should u be able to find diamonds to craft whit , well in other words Make the skills more usefull and dont follow runescapes Weopen thing , couse in runescape ther is about 7 Diffrents Armour set's , Leather , Bronze , Iron , Mithril , Adi , Rune, Dragon,.. and thatt sux ,...

I played runescape for a few years actually, and I'm sure I came close to being one of the top 10 richest players. I quit the game for Ragnarok, it went P2P so I played Monster&me, which was fun but was just pointless levelling... I then went on to faldon but left because of all the pkers and the factor of it taking two hours to get the starting armor really pissed me off.... So I played MU Online, got to level 150something, quit, played Gunbound, got rich, got hacked and then I played ConquerOnline, got rich, and moved back to faldon.

     In all of the games that held my attention (Besides MU Online and faldon) there were a few factors that made the games good.

1. QUESTS!!! Everybody loves doing quests and getting some of the story out of the game.... I mean come on........ Killing a rat with a refrigerator disguised as a skull in it's stomach doesn't cut it for me. Runescape has 150+ quests (2/3 of which are for members, but 50 quests is good for me) and there's nothing more enjoyable than spending time doing a quest with friends or other players online.

2. Exploration. The faldon maps are very limited... you have to have alot of stamina or be a fairly high level to leave the main map and explore without being killed in a second. The runescape world is MASSIVE!!! Even moreso once you pay for the members game. It's really fun to move around, find new buildings and monsters.

3. UPDATES..... This plays a big part in every game. The BIGGEST part for that matter. Nobody wants to play the same old game for years, Well except for maybe the hardcore faldonites....... But In runescape, they get a new quest, monster, map expansion, new server or a new weapon every few days! If Zer would pass on his programming rights (To someone like me maybe???) faldon could be awesome! (Did I just use Faldon and Awesome in the same sentence? Holy shit... the world's coming to an end.)

4. Hackers: Lets face it, for the noobs like me who can't dupe or ARhack anymore, it's really annoying when somebody kills you in a few seconds with a GM weapon or spell that shouldn't be in the game. Runescape had hackers and macroers once, but they found out how it was happening, and stopped it. They take action against macroers to make the game better.

5. Cashflow: In runescape it doesn't take too long to get a set of armor and some weapons and set out to raise your skills, unlike faldon where you kill mice and get 1 gold out of four of them.......

I could go on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on about why runescape has so many players but I don't feel I should waste my time typing things that won't be read.
