Hi All,
Wasn't too sure where to post this, i trialed Regnum a while back ( a year or so ago) and have good memories of it, i'm thinking of joining up but i noticed a lack of activity on the Horus Server when i was on, and surfing the web i've seen a lot of complaints about the same issue.
Can anyone let me know how things are looking recently??
I'd prefer joining an english speaking server over a Spanish/english server....
Thanks in advance for any info you can give :)

Hey burning,
Well, the activity of Horus is a bit down for more than one reason.
For example, the holidays, people are on vacation and alot of players can't play when theyre on vacation so in like 2 weeks and now ofcourse those people will be back.
Other reasons are because some new servers opened and there were made some changes to RO which not everybody liked, anyway the Dev's will fix this issue prolly by the end of the month so the population of Horus will most likely grow in these few weeks. Lets hope so :)
Welcome back!
Indeed, Horus has been going through a rough patch recently. Users are down and so is activity.
Basically it down to a virtual boycott because of some additions to the game that many players did not approve of. (I forgot vacations)
Since then , NGD has adjusted 2 of the 3 biggest issues and that has slowed some of the leakage of players (this still happens though).
But, have a look here :
http://www.regnumonlinegame.com/forum/showthread.php?t=80125
The last burning issue (the location of war zone saves) will be reverted. It is expected that this will start the change the fortunes of the server. Along with that, you will notice some very interesting updates in the pipeline. Some are due by September. I think it is a good time to look at Horus again. At least the September time frame.
Cheers
Artec.

Hahah, well succes. Which realm are you going to join if Im allowed to ask?
There are always good people in the game in every realm. Just remember that not every single person in -game is sugar and spice and everything nice.
The good ones will surely help out, give tips and assist where possible. For the idiots, well you have an ignore function to deal with them.
Of course, if you have questions about stuff in-game like character builds, grind styles and so on , you can post in 'questions to the community' section.
For the most part, this is a helpful and mature community. There are some quite experienced players too.
Regards

I'm not sure which realm as yet :)
any tips? (biased ones welcome) ;)
And ofc every game has its share of idiots, but theres ussually enough decent people to balance out those few :)

BurningBridges,
A lot of players have joined the Realms Online server. Same game but with a different name. Their server Raven is a server that started out North American but is now an English International server.
They have events all day long like Exp boosts (that stack with boosters) and gold/loot boosts, mob spawns and mob invasions and they are starting their first ever monthly realm vs realm pvp tournament. There is a calendar of events in their forums.
If you find Horus to be dead you should check it out. They have 24 hour customer support :)

It's a server but you practically are only allowed to join it if you're from North America.
About the realm, our beloved realm Alsius could you some more people :D

It is the same game. NGD partnered with another company to run the Raven server. There is a separate client you can download but I have always used my Regnum client. They named it Realms because English speaking players would identify more.
If you create a new account with them you have access to Horus and Raven when you log in and your xim is shared between the two. When you create an account on their website http://realmsonline.gamesamba.com/ you can use your Regnum launcher. It will just patch their files.
The community is growing fast. They have SGM's that are online all the time to help ppl and they have started a Game Councillor program that anyone playing the game can apply for. There is a Calendar of events on their website that shows all of the shifts and there is also a list of what GC's are on what shifts.
and btw Huntshot, anyone from anywhere in the world can join Raven. It is now an English International server. I believe it still says Raven (North America) when you see the server selection but anyone can join and there is a forum post about it going International on the Realms forums. I see players from all the other servers playing there all of the time because they like the events and customer support. They just request that you speak English in realm chat.
Hope that was informative enough for you. Even if you decide to play Horus I would suggest making the account through GameSamba (the publisher) because if you find it to be too dead on Horus you can log in to Raven as well and your Xim will be shared.
Enjoy :)

Yes, but most of the players on Raven are from North America, if theyre not then it's most likely that they used to play on Horus/Ra but switched servers.. anyway it's not smart for someone like Burning to join Raven due to the Time Difference between England and NA.. so yeah.
