Well, here's the issue - people are more apt to use a forum to complain if something's not right, if something happens to be satisfactory however it won't get a mention on a forum as it's taken for granted.

More to the point, Horus may be an unseemly mess but we'd miss it all the same.

For me Horus it is not worse compared to let's say before 1-3-6-9 months. Same fights nearly same population. I can even say population is better and fights are better. Lately Frosk tries to put bonuses every week, so it boosts things.

It is really strange to see this "aww close/merge Horus" threads again and again.

The problem with forums is, that many players don't participate on it. You should log on from time to time. Things on Horus are not so bad as written here. Forums are generaly used to whine ;)

Please do not close Horus or merge it with Raven. Keep it as it is, it's the best way imho.

when i started playing/loving RO at any time i log on - i sow a lots of action.

The troll is strong with this one... I'm joking.

Nearly every day i got good battles and it is usually a matter of if you want to fight and want to play. If goats are lazy come to syrtis. We are always ready for a good fight. Plus we do not bite. In some cases we only come from behind. :D

Hi!

I don't really understand the nature of your problem, but I think it's coming from the fact that you've been reading complaints and "nothing seems to improve".

Starting from this, I say:

Keep in mind that you can't tell how the game goes by just reading complaints and stuff like that, specially when it comes to pathetic "beings" that like to troll everyone (or at least they try, due to the huge amount of free-time these beings have in their lives; if they have lives), basically because whining it's simple and easy, does not require any ability or thinking and it's a lot more easier than building up a suggestion.

Fun fact is that if you get to ban these users, they whine and cry out because of this; so in these cases the best thing to do is to keep ignoring and reporting. Simple as that.

Oh, and by the way, this does not only happens with Horus and the english forum. It's quite a normal fact when a forum is meant to contain a really big user database, and even more if the forum is related to something popular or where people compete with each other.
As a quick example, you can check out the Spanish version of this forum, and you'll find random threads about how Regnum is going to end very soon, or that the 2008 version was far better, or even complaints saying that the whole game's going down because a specific user couldn't figure out how to send a ticket to our Support system; but when you log-in, the amount of users and server activity recalls something completely different.

As a tip, never take a single user's personal opinion and perspective as a true fact, especially if his/her past posts weren't something you can call "useful". This also applies to subgroups of users that gathers up those same characteristics.
Always try to get the info by investigating in a more personal way, or by gathering multiple opinions from different points of view (people from different ages, realms, etc.)

Regards!

Why you can not start i will ask???

Last night at Pinos we started as 5 ppl. Because we can not take Pinos and we do not like to take empty fort we started to wander around. We killed alot Ignis and Alsius and it was TONS of fun. Later we got joined from some at PN1 and we tried to bug Ignis more.

If you just stay at CS and do nothing and logoff nothing will happen. If you fight around and seek battle if some of your friends login you can chat him and say - "Hey we fight/hunt gelfs/tomatoes come to have fun". Else it is "Baah no action it is boring i will logoff".

You can have fun even with 5. Most of fun fights on RA are not with the huge zergs, but with small groups around.

--

I played goat before several times when Enio gave me to try Sudo. It was fun in fact. I played RA Alsius too for more than a month. Gave up because it was boring to grind and my conju was hard to survive at this level.

[bois]

Close Horus ? No. Such request are unwarranted.

Honestly is it really that different from before? The character of the server seems rather unchanged. It just seems to go through its regular cycles of ups and downs.
Wait till they launch the island or something interesting. Activity will spike then gradually decline slowly. Such is the nature of the server.

In my humble opinion, the server seems to be more active these days with the types of wars we used to know from back in the day. Lots of bridge wars, 3 way wars and fort exchanges. All we really miss are those epic open field ones and the fort wars when you have no door.
I started playing a little more again even though I am quite busy in RL just because activity is up a bit and, even with a short login session you can get some action going. Before, I would log and could not even find a proper fight (when ports went to forts).

Things are coming along slowly and while it is at a rate we might find hard to accept (Devs included) Horus still remains viable. At least I can still squeeze some fun out of it.

[Castingbeast]

I was talking about fort wars, not hunting.

Comparing Ra to Horus is just stupid imho, a Ra hunting party is equal to a war grp on horus i guess :P
And sure u can have fun with even 5, IF the other side has even less :closed1:.

:cuac: 10 chars :play_ball:

[ieti]

First we was around 10 and yes there was no need to take empty fort. We will loose it instantly. Seemed zerg was bored.

Second it was a fort fight, BECAUSE we spend half hour or more on PN side of Pinos. Ignis several times was after us jumping from walls. We attacked both Alsius and Ignis on road. So i can clearly consider this a Fort fight. There was relatively small part when we camped PN but this was not hunt too. We camped a little. ;)

Have you played RA? Sure there are HUGE zerg wars, but small fights can be lets say 5 vs 5 or 10 vs 10. Server population have nothing to do with this.

And finally i try to make you believe that even with small number it is pretty possible to have a nice fight and a good fun. Nothing more if you get it as a troll attempt that is your problem...

--

I will not sympathize or feel sorry for you. No need for this. It will fix nada. If you want to fight negativism in your ranks - it is all in your hands.

[GreenAngel]

I do remember getting zerged by a Goat zerg when hunting at Aggers Market/Alsius OC though, I don't know why you don't go to Samal/Herb/Alga with that zerg could be lots of fun. It's not fun to get zerged by 14 goats or something, but it does show you got some people to have some fun.

Also I do not know why this happens: Im grinding at OC, got zerged by about 7 Goats, so I suspect them to go to Alga, 20 minutes later --> Nothing yet.
Owh and when I played Alsius (yes I did Multirealmer!!!) Alsius chat is the most full chat there is oO. When you get to Syrtis inner no one talks. When you log in Alsius just 5 people having a conversation :D. But perhaps the lowbies just don't grind on in Alsius or smth idk.

I feel sorry for you though.

[maximus-decimus]

nobody cares for Horus or other underpopulated server ;)

All the gameplay is made for RA, here you have enough players to have the chance of filling one of the giant castles ^^

If you want to find out what NGD always is changing, you have to play RA.
Here some things implemented in the past are senseful.

[The_Krome_Dragon]

Tbh i find these threads pointless(though funny at times) bec im always able to find some kind of fight when i log on, even if i have to go and start one. Horus for me seems to be getting much more active nowadays rather than dying out. Close Horus? Hell No!! Like it or not Horus Still lives u dirty assassin. I also find it funny that some ppl seem to think that logging off /taking breaks/ leaving will somehow bring more activity to a server.

[R_of_WWT]

Best solution is allow usa to sign up directly with ndg. I went inactive bc I couldn't have my friends join me here. I am not going to rebuild on raven. Horus is dying bc new usa blood has been blocked. This also leads to timezone imbalance.

thank you for your reply, but you did not understand me - and it is your negative.
I play since 2010 and know what is Horus.
we ask, and you say that you do not understand us.
We've invested money in your game, so can you give us a choice? just say NO and i'm and all (maybe) will shut up. No problem.


Unfortunately most people see only what they want to see in the posts.
and I'm not the man who will whine and do not advise others to do so.

what are you talking about? All the time I hear from Ieti "last night.... last night" and one more time "last night"... really epic.
Of course, like you can not compare the past with the present, but I repeat: a year ago I could log on at any time (most in the evening, after work, not at night) - activity was amazing...
at evening today i will check :)

[ieti]

I'm a working person and times i play are at night i.e. from 21:00 to 01:00 GMT+2. I can not compare to other time zones, because simply i have no ways to try them.

I still think Horus is more active and fun compared to before. True things changed, people changed, game changed.

I miss many great players, but people come and go. New ones are nice and friendly too.

[Hopeakettu]

I miss many great players, but people come and go. New ones are nice and friendly too.

Very true, thumb up to that. :thumb:

However, problems begin when WMs start to leave for various reasons and what remains are 50's, 40's and lower who are far from 60 and the WM title (of course there are always some WM's remaining, but at times you hardly meet any -either because of time differences or because they are busy elsewhere). There are few battles without beacons these days, meaning that even a decent group of skilful 50+ people is much more likely to lose against beacons without WM's.

Your mileage will vary according to the time zone you frequent. But, was it not always this way and, at some points during the life time of the server, significantly worse than now?

One last thing, people keep saying they invest money in this game like it enshrined some set of rights. Read the fine print. You invested money in entertainment, your entertainment. You took a risk and invested in something that might entertain you. The risk is that it might not. But you accepted that risk when you signed on.
It is like buying stocks, the investment may or may not pay off. Nobody forced you.
Besides, it not like some kind of free pass to request all kind of perks. The game was delivered 'as is' and you bought in. The choice is always yours.

Could it be the hyping that NGD was doing just prior possibly be the cause of the upsurge? A fresh and new expansion that nobody was sure what the end game was? Naaah. Impossible.

Your outlook and experiences are different to mine. I will just have to leave it at that.

I sure hope NGD drops some kind of update soon. These kind of threads while mildly entertaining for a short time become rather dismaying when they fill the forum. We need fresh material to discuss.

LoL at all the alsius thinking this trike is having any effect on gameplay.
We have fun with all the opther alsius that are still in game guys.
They are all lvl 50+,and they don't give up after 1 time die.
The best think of your strike,is that no alsius camp anymore syrtis OC(this make me understand that who join the strike,just want have a no challange win).
Now we can grind peacefully if we want.
So yes....i vote for more alsius strike(with all the respect for who join the strike with best intention and usually don't camp grinders and don't give up at forts).
Actually we are having a great fun with ignis.
mmmh...a question...may be the few alsius in strike are on their alts in ignis and syrtis?nvm..

Back on topic,horus is funny in this days,nothing to say about.
Some of us simply ask the chance of buy a premium item,that allow us to go on another server,like RA,because the presence of more player,give the chance of MASSIVE RvR,that is quite different from horus.
If they put the ticket ok,if not,will be ok as before.
We just ask.
I like horus,but someday the horus population really goes down,and there is nothing to do.This don't happens on RA.
There you log in and there is always some war to do....i mean war...open field...massive one...not a shitty hunt group for grinders of 5 ppls.Hunt group of RA,know that going SH ,will find 10 ppls grinding....is quite different from horus...and there,after 2 nanoseconds,they get zerged from 20 syrtis coming from cs,while they still attempt to kill grinders.

Guys..don't tell me is the same on horus..just go the daily or monthly stats of the server...horus have 1/10 of the war stats of RA.
If that many want to stay on horus,put scroill to change server,allowing the few to o on RA,without have to grind an entire lvl 60 from 0.


About what Frosk told...i know you love him guys etc etc....but what do you pretend from GMs that don't know the horus activity,because they never log there?
Ofc,if Frosk,or any other GMs go watch the log/war statistics of horus,compared to RA ones,the should understand.
But the most of time,while "we are trolling",they are busy ignoring our thread,and...dunno...they take our QQ as a personal isnult?
NGD stuff...we just make some request...you can simply tell us "NO" "YES" "because" etc...and not put 24h/24 the "ignore mode " on.
Most of the time we ask things,in nice way...ofc if you ignore us,we keep rage and trolling.

[bois]

The offer to sell a premium item transfer from Horus to RA solves the problem for an individual but does nothing for RA, Horus or NGD. It just makes new problems. But then it is all about what 'we' want even to the detriment of the game. Sure you can ask, but you should be prepared to see how it can play out both in positive and negative ways.

The only reason to offer a Server transfer is to boost population/ activity on the weaker server and relieve population pressure on the heavily subscribed one. What sense does it make to 'fix' a server which has no population problems and increase population weakness problems on the other? What logical business approach would that be?

In any case there is premium for the server transfer. You make a new account, roll a scroll of mastery, buy 19- 500% boosters and some lucky boxes and grind like you never did. Get the first 60 then buy the rest. ( I never tried to have characters on one account on multiple servers. I have no idea if that works and if it does, if having a level 60 on an account allows you to roll a level 60 on another server.)

I wonder if this happened and then RA got so overextended that you had to wait in a queue of 50+ to get in, you would want to flip flop back to Horus?

NGD has the task of the welfare of the whole game and its servers. Individual driven need that may not be in the best interest of the company and its server population distribution policy will have to take a back burner. Horus already has a population problem, why would NGD shoot itself in the foot and make it worse ?

[makarios68]

On topic, i suggest that the best solution is to keep Horus as it is.
I suspect that the majority of its users want to keep it that way.
It is a minority of very loud and demanding people with dubious motives who say otherwise.

[standistortion]

...why would NGD shoot itself in the foot and make it worse ?
Thats a question that has been asked many times and for many reasons :P

[tarashunter]

It is a minority of very loud and demanding people with DUBIUOS motives who say otherwise.

I wrote it in many post...i know my english skill sucks,but i think is pretty clear.
I just want to join the MASSIVE RvR,where skill system works properly.
Even beacons etc,on RA have a different way to work.
Beacons with 30 ignis,and beacons with 10 ignis,are different.
Many more target,many more ally,etc.
Is that so DUBIUS?
Not to argue with you,but,is hard to understand my desire?

@Bois:
Yes bois,you are right.Allow me and few other,to transfer by horus to Ra,would make Horus more empty.
On the other way,even you,as others,told Horus is fine as it is.
So,if it is fine,why don't allow me and few others go on RA?
Klutu made a thread 2 years old...with a poll...
The vote result was that player would like RA ppls to come on horus,and that poll was the one with records of votes,no other poll got this many votation.
Now the point is,allow me go on RA,or allow RA player come here,anything would be apreciated,to encrease the horus popolation;why there is no activity in this way?I mean,why they don't even do transer RA-->horus?
And if horus players,don't want RA ppl to come,because they like actual horus status,why don't allow who want a larger and massive RvR go to RA?


Sure,business is not an opinion,and NGD must take care of his own poket.
I well know this,but give a damn answer sometimes,pop up on a thread and say something and explaining why,or anyother GM activity,would be apreciated.
Take care of their pokets,and of their comunity must be the goal,not this continuos ignoring.
Go look at my thread/post,i asked even in a nice way to frosk to answer to a simple question,nothing happend.
Seems they just wait me to troll hard to give a banhammer and keep me away.
If they answer "NO,because etc etc" would be nice...Negative responce,make you feel their presence.When the comunity cry,ask just a little more presence from GM.Nothing more.

This thread would be easly closed by a simple "don't worry guys,at moment we don't have a clear plan/solution,but we are studing the situation and possible solutions".
Is that hard?
Sure is more simple give the answer like frosk gived before...a no-sense answer from who really don't know the server.Go read statistics,of the past 2 years compard to now a days,then come back give us the same answer,and tell me if is the same,and if we are trolling.

If people didn't like something, at least they could put some thought into it and make it a creative argument with some laughs in it. Like I said, only thoughtless banter is found here now.

Quite a stark generalisation there. I've seen plenty of very well thought posts and suggestions from a number of people, this post of yours however, is not one of them.


Can someone please tell me why they still play Regnum? I expect 90% of you to answer along the lines of SAD INTERNET FRIENDSHIP.
Perhaps because they still have fun playing the game? What does it matter to anyone other than the individual playing the game why they choose to play that game?

I don't understand why you make a return to a forum of a game you claim to no longer play just to derail a thread by complaining about people that erm.. derail threads and have nothing useful to say. Your post simply seems like an attack on the community.

Anyway, back on topic. No to closing Horus, no one can seriously expect NGD to close this server. Rather than thinking of closing Horus, there should be ideas put out to improve the state of Horus, perhaps some advertising, rewards for those who recommend people, and a well thought solution for current realm balance issues, one recent thread that comes to mind is this one.

Not been playing RO for anything like as long but seen some of that change, its sad and its effecting many other games. Going on a small rant here, will try and keep it short though. Once upon a time there was a scare on the net, adults could pretend to be kids and do evil stuff. We (adults) all became aware of it, watched out for it and mind our manners so as not to corrupt the innocents and so the social structure on the internet arrives at a balance.
What about the other way around? Kids can be selfish, greedy little.... so and so's and certain popular mmo's reward then for being selfish, greedy etc. Is that attitude having an effect on the nets society, is it spreading?

kk, rant over :)

Also off topic, and for the sake of my own curiosity can someone please tell me why they still play Regnum? It's a serious question. Though, I expect 90% of you to answer along the lines of SAD INTERNET FRIENDSHIP.
Linkiostro, I got a thing about long legged goat chicks, probably a guy though ;)

On topic, ummm please dont close horus, please do whatever it is you said you where going to do to help horus when raven was launched.
