At the time Mira wrote that post things were looking dire, but they've picked up again now. Ignis have gained a lot of strength and Alsuis is starting to too.

Awesome quote by the way, sorry for the slight subject change

I personally shall NOT be supporting this walk out, do you seriously think everyone reads the forums? What you are talking about doing will only be seen by a few people !!

Secondly.....

The game is great, the RVR aspect of the game is wicked, ok realms may not be balanced.... who is the dominant realm? Ignis - who is now the lowest? Alsuis. Sorry to say Sytris but I commend the effort of the Alsuis who even FORCED me to reskill they fort so hard at there wall, with so few, that I even suggested that we leave there realm as soon as we had what we went for. Sytris pick up your act.

Everyone else... The game is great - instead of picking holes in what is a free game, find something else to pick on. I am viperdh, full support conj, often in the WZ, spend your time trying to kill me instead of winging on the forums about how Horus isn't what YOU want it, or prehaps you could tell a friend about the game as I have and get ... Hmmm 7 ppl into horus as I have.

Spend your time in the WZ instead of complaining no one is in there..... if you are not in there how can you expect others to be in there, if there is no action in the war zone how can you expect others to stay in the realm with no action?

Think about it guys, if you walk out, the server dies, if you aren't in the wz, there is no action in the WZ, really it's up to us to make it happen, NDG have advertised the game we just need to stick at it.

Haven't you seen the problem yet?
It is nearly impossible to get NGD's attention, even more reply, without doing something really drastic.

When Kailer got the job as community manager, I thought it was great.
I remember the first week(s) when he was on IRC, chatting with us - now that created a good Developer/User feeling.

Then in the beginning he replied to a few of our posts and even while he could not give answers to all of them - due to policies or simply that he did not know - he atleast confirmed that he had read the post and that *some* action would be done.
in the Suggestion section of the forums he marked threads (read) if he had looked at them.

Now, where is Kailer? I haven't seen his presence on the forums since before christmas....

Things like that is all that is needed!
A confirmation that you care, that you read the English forums at all.

Right now I, and many others have the feeling that you don't care about either the free players and those that buys premium.

Kailer is on vacation. its summer down here you know?

We care for this game and its community way more than you guys... it is the work of our lives and we worked almost (if not completely) for free for 5 years to make it a reality and 2 years more after that to make it something that we can be proud of.

anyway, we are well aware of the shortcomings of the game and our company as a service provider.

I can't believe that you guys think that we are either sabotaging ourselves with our decisions or trying to F U to the point of making you guys leave the game. You even keep creating crazy ideas such as Muspell not having the new experience curve or fatigue... ahahaha.

The honest truth is that we are still very small team, (only 10 people) and because of that, we make a lot mistakes and we cannot attend all of the problems at the same time. We are doing a great effort to make this game better. We still have to invest more in money into every month Regnum than what Regnum makes...

We are well aware of the situation in Horus, and we are thinking about how to make it better and we understand the difficulties that the community there is facing. We hope to be able to provide solutions in time, I hope you can be patient.

For me personally, Horus is our most important server right now as it carries the seed of what could make Regnum a success as an international product.

We've been very busy this year, we improved the game's performance, we finally implemented invasions to somehow fix the end game and there is a light at the end of the tunnel in terms of the business model. We hope we can now fix the rest.

best regards,

- Chilko

believe me, we don't need more threats about leaving the game or more thoughts about how we are suiciding the game...

you may be getting our attention, but it only attempts aggainst our motivation to continue working hard on our creation.

Sometimes you guys make me want to install a red button in my desk with a sign that reads "shutdown".

best regards,

You know what? That explains pretty much everything.
And it also shows how stupid some people (including me) are to assume that everything is exactly like where they lives.

I apologize.

I have to agree here, as i said ealier walking out isnt an option, it will not benefeit anyone.

Us players must realise that throwing our rattles about with solve nothing at all.

Also we should remember NGD is a small company. They work hard on their creation, which we must also recognise is free, we are not forced to buy premium but premuim helps ngd and ultimately helps us the players.

I started playing this game the day beta finished, and have seem a hell of a lot of improvements, in bug fixes and content - i guess some people forget about the improvements (i am also guilty of this) in terms of gameplay improvements.

FINALLY - Chilko dont install a red button on your desk with a sign that reads "shutdown". Give me a red button with 'INSTANTANIOUS COMBUSTION' on it, to remove irritations from the game (irritations as in some players)

EDIT:

I understand some people want this feature but if it is implememnted, would Ra suffer from the loss of users? I for one will not play on Horus, Ra is my home.

Something us the players might be able to do to help ngd - How many people have you recommened this game to? If every player could get at least 1 new user, then think of the potential income for ngd - allowing them to improve the game further

EDIT 2:

If ngd had a banner or graphic we could use, it would be easy to advertise the game on our blogs or wepages (if we have either)

Chilko, this "we are a small team" excuse is starting to get really pathethic. Ever heard of id software? well their small team made bestsellers & games that (re)defined whole gaming genres, and they were not much bigger team then you guys. So please, stop with such lame excuses and do something right for once in your life.

Syd_Vicious · 01-02-2009, 05:53 PM

I believe, for one, that this thread had its primary intent completed. To have NGD post and talk to players once more, while accepting criticism at the same time is a big thing for a company to have to do.

I actually feel a lot better now about that game then when I was getting killed in the inner realm, by ppl in the warzone without any gates down. That got infuriating very quickly.

On the other hand I still agree with Katiechan in regards to the games development and impact on primary english players. For this game to be a real contender things do have to be fixed. While it maybe easy to lure someone into playing RO by referral it is still hard to keep them.

Most of the ppl I know who are into MMOs are playing WoW, Final Fantasy Online, Warhammer and Guild Wars. So it is hard to attract them to a game that is RvR based that still has the same problems it has had for months, with a small development team behind it. That also has a lot less content in it that the games they are already playing.

The only thing I wish we had right now, besides all bugs magically fixed and balance between all realms and server. would be a planned fix outline that shows when things are hoped to be addressed. They could all just be labeled as proposed, but it would at least help to see changes were on the way.

Also, Chilko or niclam, if possible for player retention can you shoot me a list of all the NPC locations for all realms to my account email address? I'm building a rather large players guide that absorbs most of the knowledge in these forums while also adapting to some new changes caused by the invasion system. I just need NPC positions to update my current NPC location roster.

Oh yeah Walk Out request canceled, thanks for all that played this game.
