That's just stupid, you have too much experience and skill to completely shift the game in that direction and expect people to like it, everyone will die to the elite over and over, they won't want to seek for/advance in skill, they will quit and find a REAL balanced game.

Half the players that play now only play for the community and the friends they have made, hence the "idlers", they're all friends sitting at "unstick me" using Era as an instant messanger.

What you're asking is basically this in other words/another form; We give you a copy of a game, let you play it for 10 years and get extremely good at it then we release it to a SELECT FEW and watch them die over and over and just expect them to like dying and want to learn not to die.

There will be an obvious disadvantage to 90% of the current players and 100% to every and all new player that join for 5 minutes to see what the game is like, people play games to succeed not to die 100 times and get 1 kill, no one feels accomplishment from that.

You can't expect the player count to get better and better, it won't get better with the minimal advertisement/the amount of people that currently play... It just won't happen.

If you think about it from all angles, Era is about as good as it's going to get right now, I wouldn't put too much money on it lasting more than a couple more years before the PC servers completely get shut offline, just enjoy it and stop complaining about every possible problem. It's still the same old Era that we all fell in-love with, It just doesn't have the same atmosphere as when it did with all of our friends playing at the same time raiding against another set of 70+ players.
