 Topic: time for a new server?
Posted: 24 Jun 2012 at 16:40 |
how many think its time for a new server? that way people can compare the game play in each and decide where to devote their playing time. remember this server has been in play over two years, it would be a good selling point for the illy advertising that a new server is opening, and the old server and new would have to compete against each other for players, it would make it alot more fun to play illy too! please when responding give your ideas on why u think it would be a good or bad idea!

They need to do something very soon.The map is getting full and nowhere to send the newbies too as far as exo and magic.Why let it get this bad before doing something about the problem.
Would love to see a new contintent or a new server .

a new IG continent or land mass yes, NO NEW SEPARATE WORLD.
that's all i have to say, long time game, building empires and lots of people around is whats good, splitting things in half making the world half as active is always a bad idea.
Adding a new landmass with some sea between then, needing ships to travel between would be totally awesome and could create some great wars between them as well as possible trade with having exclusive items on each side, players setting out to explore and settle the new lands, keeping the newbs in the newb ring because maybe you have forgotten but without 100k pop players within 400sq you aint getting any res help.

The game will enter a new phase of challenges when there is more land pressure. Perhaps we can start charging rent? ;o)

I think we are already there.Map is tight to find a exo spot or for newbies to do magic moves.Why bring them into the game if they cannot do whats is needed to grow.

I disagree. The sweet spots are running out. But there are plenty of other spots still out there. It just means you will need to compete for great spots or take second pickings. Imagine after a war everyone starts picking at the good spots that are now available.

Gameplayer, no offense but after searching your posts, it seems more than half of them are in some way asking why Illy isnt more like a generic run of the mill MMO.
Creating a new server separate from this one will be the first coffin nail for Illy.
If you want to play a game that will make a new server every month or so, and thusly create skeleton servers or would like to play 5 servers at once; try any of the hot garbage Gameforge puts out.

I agree. If overcrowding really is a big problem (Which it may be in some regions but there are still a lot of good spots in the North) then the way to fix it is to either be more vigorous in removing inactives or to add another landmass to the game map.

I think a new server right now would not turn out very good. Sure there is less room and less stuff but the map is pretty big. There is alot of unusable space that might be opened up later. We have no telling what might happen with the future plans the developers might have.
There is only a couple times when I see a new server is in order. One is when there is to many players for the server to handle. And others are less important. Just recently I looked around the map and found tons of open unexplored area where you can have 7 food towns. Mind you the food sov bonus is anywhere from 50-35%.
There is room but players have been trapped in this mindset on what makes a good spot. Until players can stop listening to certain vets and see how things function they will be out of luck.
Its to hard telling how much room is open because suspended players, multi account players,and people that keep should be suspended accounts going by sitting them. Though I do think something should be done to free up some space.

Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business and to work with your hands, so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so you will not be dependent on anybody.
