Haven - Which Realm to Join?

[Flightcap]

Thanks for the updates. I loved the community in Syrtis but sometimes the zerg mentality drove me a little bonkers, so we'll see between Syrtis and Ignis what happens. I might try logging in to my level 45 conj as well, thanks for that tip. Would be a shame to lose the grinding time.

Just a thought - I wonder if part of Regnum's trouble in attracting new players lies in its client download mechanics. I tried to download the client file through the Regnum website and was getting download speeds of 0 to 800 KB/S. Four hours later and one-fourth of the installer downloaded, I ended up downloading it through Steam. This is on a very stable 12 MB/S connection. Methinks something is messed up here!

i reconsidered and after seen the last 4-5 days i think syrtis is again the most powerful realm, followed by alsius and last ignis. but again: the imbalance is smallest of many times b4.

yea i find its hard to find an mmo with no client download or patching problems. especially indie mmos like regnum which cannot buy big download capacity.

recently i tried RF Online which is much larger than regnum. they couldn't even keep their download links updated. 3 links and only 1 of them had a working client.

the best solution ive seen for mmos is to have an updated torrent download link. But this may only be suitable for Asia.

realm balance is hard to determine.with the majority of players being multi realmers now it really depends on the hour of the day.

the new relic lock down has effectively shut alsius out of the picture.that was our strongest hour and now were unable to invade.the 2 strongest realms seem to be Ignis and syrtis for invading power.syrtis seem to just sit about until they have overwhelming odds then invade,otherwise they do very little but play spoiling tactics on alsius and help Ignis.ignis and alsius are the more active when it comes to trying to invade and play a more postive style game.

players are now appearing to head to Ignis as a result.many alsius players have left for ignis and i can only assume its happened to syrtis too.

my advice is play for either syrtis first or alsius but not ignis,they are the dominant realm by far.

even fights are the best fights and i hope oneday syrtis realise this and stop helping ignis invade alsius.its putting alot of pressure on the alsius players and haven server can hardly afford to lose more players.when ignis have 30 online and alsius has 10,alsius stands little chance of defending the gates,it makes the alsius players just want to quit when they see syrtis helping to attack.

lets stop this bully tactics and get back to the good old fashioned fun.im always going to help syrtis when reds are farming them at a fort.i see no sense in helping hte bigger team,the most fun is when the 2 smaller realms team up to beat the bigger realm.oneday ill help syrtis and the next it could be ignis,but what ever i do i do NOT pick on the weaker team....i fight for who ever needs the help at that time(when alsius is dead as it has been lately)

There shouldn't be bitching about realms working together, we all have at some point or another

[uncreative]

oh yeah syrtis always help pigs... Its your point of view , we see ignis and goats teaming up a lot.

i am actually very opposed to having an arbitrary timed relic lockdown. if this is the effect then the time lock should be removed or be a rolling time lock.

i feel ngd's priorities are very very strange - no post on forums have ever called for an addition of 2 npc guards next to fort flags and yet it has appeared on the next update.

if the forum+player community were to vote on what single item NGD should fix in the next 3 months, i doubt putting npc guards at fort flags wud come up tops. I feel a relic lockdown would also never have been voted to the top.

I dont think guards would have existed in that list
its actually fun that forts ARE NOT GUARDED AT FLAG
so hunters you know.. can do something
i wonder if in the next update they will delete the class.. seeing as how useless it is in fortwars..
orwait.. maybe thats why they did the relic lock.. so people would hunt and use hunters..
save me! im starting to think like NGD!

I guess we could try making a new topic, complain and suggest, but who knows maybe RA asked for flagguards
we cant beat RA >.<
