new client (Page 1 of 2)

Yes, you will. The new client will come with a new server which means everything
will reset. With this should also come new maps, new quests, new monsters, new
art etc. However, I do not see it being finished anytime this year, or even next.

Last time I asked he said 2.5D, it will be isometric but you can rotate 4 different views

I play DAoC so it makes 2D Iso look like stick art comparatively...

Poor customer service is it's greatest weakness...not a bad game in and of itself though.

in my mind the reason is jerk infection, and its rather hard to get money in the beginning.. i mean comon if ur struggling to get money and someone comes and kills all ur monsters and keeps telling u that u suck and are worth nothing, then what in hell would make u want to keep playing the game?

thanx for the exsample in the ''jerk'' part , but i have tryed it 3 times... never worked.. just had to repair the bagy.. took me 2 days..

Yeah, and while you're add it, make it so the drop rate on all items is 30% from Wolves.

Though.. It would be smart to keep customers to keep the current client open while the new client is in C-only Beta.

It won’t survive then. I played the end of the last client. They had many players and very few of them signed up to play beta. If there is an open beta again goodbye P's because it's obvious, they weren't going to pay to play anyways. Then you have the Cs against the reset... They will quit all together.... Then you have the people who use other people to buy C for them suing Faldon Items and gold... Say goodbye to them... New Client is what? Maybe 1 or 1.5 years away if not longer? The Faldon population has been in a steady decrease also so uh oh. Yes it might bring some other players back who wanted a wipe and a fresh start, but you will lose more than you gain.

The Kiss of Death if that happens.

Fully agreed with lots of this, the population hasnt really plumetted mind you, its because the maps get bigger, the world opens up, and suddenly you dont have the starting town beign the hub of activity as was such in the desert map, and in the 3 church maps (Yes, 3.. alpha, pre-beta, and beta) Now, most players are forming their own groups around shop NPC's out in the middle of no where doing there own thing not even bothering to head back to the town.     If the 'new map' were to take advantage of keeping the NPC's in the starting town, and forcing players to head back tiem and tiem again, you will develop a closer community, because players will be opening more trading, more pvp, and more grouping.

Just for the record, you guys are very shortsighted.  It was only a couple of months ago that the average playerbase was 15-20.  Then it shot up to between 40 and 60 over the course of a few weeks to a month.  And now it's back.  Faldon goes in cycles like this.

When the game went down for about a month during the server switch a while back the population really dropped too. I think we had about 80 people online most of the day. After that it wasn't quite the same.
