Era Playerbase (Preparation)

[Zeross]

Hello, everyone.

The current playerbase of Era looks steady and positive, for the most part.
However, this post is to pose the question of, how will this be impacted by the Facebook release in the coming weeks?

Era's Primary activity is player-killing.
The player's primary complaint is that there is not enough of it.
If there as an alternative in which they can get the positive minus the negative, would they not jump on that opportunity?

Therefore, I pose the question.
What can be done to maintain this playercount or perhaps increase it upon the facebook release?

-Create party battle system
-Have the Eventbot running full time when et's aren't hosting
-Balance gangs and create a gang battle system

those are some ideas off the top of my head

[Shards-Of-Fate]

Fill the world with killable NPCs and Cops that police you.

as soon as facebook era will come out ull all realise it's quality is poor

[The_Federov]

Make graal FREE!
(Don't troll, I know it cost money to play, because he wouldn't host it if he made no money.)

Mhh, I agree with Zeus. The parties have no competition whatsoever which is why they go after gangs, then gangs get angry and blame the parties for ruining their fun.

raid era mafia, get some kills, then join a gang
there's no reason why perople without a gang tag are allowed in gang bases but unfortunately they still are...

Why would I do that when the leaders don't care one bit.

Agreed. Gangs are ridiculous bad (not the players), and not even funny to be in one. Party is the way to have fun on Era, seriously. All you care about is the MVP points or ECs, not about the raids or having fun.

That's absolutely absurd, TK. If gangs had a hundredth of the respect that parties have for their members, then I would agree with this, but gang leaders don't create an atmosphere in which there is a respect between the members and the leadership. Until that respect exists, I think that parties should be a much higher priority for staff, because no matter how much we do to improve gangs, the leaders don't know how to handle themselves.

you're talking about LC
in BH i remove anyone who disrespects me and so do other commanders
the difference is that BH is a selection of good pkers whilst LC adds anyone they can to get high numbers, which ovbiously turns out to be a fail

/facepalm

Removing someone that disrespects you doesn't mean that there's any feeling of respect within the gang.

but, do you black list them all?

Facebook Era could:

1. Cause PC Era to be deleted and replaced on the list.
2. Cause PC Era to be renamed.

Will most likely be left alone though and some fragmentation issues will occur.
