This behaviour enraged the other players who play this game for the RvR concept. Some quit playing, others went to other realms, others went back to RA, etc. The result is a poor and pityful Syrtis constantly devastated because of the stupidity of some PvP addicts who didnt realize that the beauty of this game is the RvR concept. PvP games are lots but only few with such a unique RvR concept.

Fall of syrtis or fall of regnum?

The fall of regnum started with OP beacons which took NGD 2 years to fix even though there were complaints even before they went live, and when people realized NGD doesn't care about balance. When was the last real balance update again? And how long has the community been begging for one without any response

The funny thing is, the last great balance update was just before the WM update. Level 50 cap, free level 1 spells gone, classes finally balanced in a nice way. And then came 10 more levels, with it 20 more power points. I personally would have gladly waited for them to polish the WM expansion before launching it like they did.

It's such a shame considering how much work was put into getting that balance.

I am always hopeful for balance updates, but never expecting it, if that makes any sense! Ah well :P NGD as always, leap first, look later.

This = a cycle. Realms will rise and fall. Syrtis just happens to be the victim at the moment.

Fall of Regnum? It has happened so many times now I lost count.

I have never seen a company grab defeat from the jaws of victory so many times.

I am sure that Regnum will survive. Will Haven survive? I doubt it. Imho the best thing NGD can do is merge it with Ra. Haven is so empty compared to RA... I cant imagine it will survive.
Ra has always been great and now is doing even better with all that players coming daily from Haven [Btw come to the English speaking clan Immortal Legends in Ignis ]
TDM has not affected RA so hard as Haven due to its higher population. Also I noticed that ppl in RA are not really interested in TDM or BZ. You see, there is lots of action everywhere so there is no need for that.

I would personally rather they split Haven over Valhalla, Pirahna and Nemon, with the EU (mostly dutch/UK/scandinavia) players being given the option of choosing either Valhalla or Nemon, and US players going to Pirahna.

In fact, it might be even better to scrap Nemon, and merge all its players to Valhalla, and all EU players from Haven going there as well. It would create an awesome well populated server that really rolls with the EU timezones.

In the same way, putting all US players on Pirahna would put all the players on a similar timezone.
