Why has the playercount dropped so dramatically?

You woulkd have to ask them that. I have nothing to do with it. All I know is they are planning something big, which has been posted on the forums, and it sounds good to me.

No, different ideas, getting away from classic, sounds good to me. People making a real effort to make something great, sounds good to me.

Having 4 worlds that are going to be too big for any playercount sounds bad to me. I don't see how it sounds good to you and was hoping you'd tell me rather than just saying it sounds good.

Having 4 worlds, all different, but tied in together somehow, as long as that aren't ridiculously big, sounds good to me.
I don't know what they are doing with it, but it could be good if done right.
Look, what sounds good to me doesn't have to sound good to you. We are all different people, with different likes and dislikes. I can accept that.
It STILL sounds good to me....

I wasn't trying to get you to change your opinion. I just didn't understand why you thought it sounded good. New things aren't always always good. I wonder if Bell's new rules would prevent N-Pulse from doing the Zodiac-clone update or ever coming back. We already have that style of gameplay and it is on one of the most popular servers around.

So "downsizing" huh?

Well I agree there are too few players for the servers. So you try to change that by letting playercount drop even more?

4 servers in one? Oh come on, who would do that, even one server with some mobs lags enough...

Imho the problem with most servers is that they don't work out their ideas, that why they fail. It's always the same
"modern typed server" "guns" "better than era"
"rpg" "crafting" "jobs"

the crafting and jobs are usually more boring than useless, but both of that at the same time. They have to put some creative, fun and useful elements into their timesinks. And they need to work out their story and other stuff before they start. Honestly, I like scripting but I loose interest fast if it's like "hey we need jobs, make some". And when you ask for details its like "dunno, mining maybe, just use <stolen image from some other serv>, we'll replace that later"
