Have to congratulate you guys on doing your best to destroy a game that had a load of potential. Since land of the dead even the t4 zones that were rocking are now almost totally dead.
All the people I know are logging in less and less and even my guild leaders are quitting to go play aion once release. I predict there will be nothing left to salvage of this game in 5-6 months time.
You keep coming up with promises to fix imbalances and CC issues yet fail to come up with the goods, months of waiting is not worth it.

I have not played the game but it sounds like someone missed there nap. I'm sure mythics goal was not putting out a bad game to scare away you and your friends.
I suggest you go play it then as you have no idea until you see it for yourself.
I blame GamesWorkshop for dissing Blizzard and giving the keys to Mythic instead. How do you do such a thing ?
I got bored at about Rank 30...
No other players in sight... I would have much prefered the game to be FILLED with people, on FEWER servers, than what they have right now.
But heaps of people jumped ship when they merged servers... making the general population of each server about the same, even with less servers around.
I simply can't be stuffed playing because it's a grind, and there's little point to it... I don't have any RL friends playing, and I don't want to just join up in some random guild.
Apart from all of that, I'm fairly broke at the moment and can't afford to keep paying $20 a month for any game.
Blaaaargh I'ma go play Mabinogi until I hate it now... whee.
I am playing EVE and it's alright... level V skills are a bit much.
You all need to learn to spell.
lol
The problem is almost everyone in the game are complaining about the same things for months now and nothing is being done to recify the issues. People have had enough and are moving on to other things like crappy wow or other trash games til something better is released.
Its not just friends but everyone else, we have had enough.
Don't want to go try it. Just saying Mythic hasn't put so much time and money into ruuining a game. No one would. Maybe its not working like they hoped but they didn't try to screw it up. come on they arent dumb
If they moved all characters to just 2 servers (one for open RvR and one normal) and balanced the careers, then it would be playable.
durton players had voiced their concerns when land of the dead was on the test server, nobody at mythic listened to them and now they can see it with their own eyes that it hasn't worked.
Land of the dead should be just a pvp zone and not locked to whoever gets control.
Just 2 servers.... man it's worse than I thought.
Must be a sinking ship.
I rewally don't care if some players didn't like the patch pre-release. Pretty much every game that releases exoabsions ad patches like that has plenty of players that predict the doom of the game pre-release. Sometimes they're right sometimes not. So Mythic took a chance. The same chance they took in releasiing the origional game you obviously liked.

Actually there are at least 4 servers with decent and I will say, growing populations. Forums like these breed lies, and trolls. The game is great, and keeps improving a bit slow at time, but it is improving, people just need patience. I have no issues playing on Dark Crag, and Iron Rock, Praag, and Pheonix Throne is doign well as it stands too. People need to leave well enough alone, if you are nto paying activily for a game you have no clue, if you have never played, you ahve no clue, and if you are not paying for it activly you have no say, as you are not putting money into development. Move on and troll yourself, leave games along that you do not play. It is quite simple, say you do not like it, state why, and move on.

Damn straight.
I loved their PvP. I wouldn't say it was imbalanced as such, just that every class generally had one or two "WTF?" moves, and so sometimes people would die in 10v10 RvR with almost no reasoning behind it other than "HAX", when really, some ranged fella just used their morale ability on them...
Anyway, the reason why I don't really like the game is server population. Empty areas filled with NPCs that love to chase you for ten billion years, and friendly NPCs that like to stand there as you get killed by a stronger monster... zzzzz.
Meh... end rant.

Population is not an issue if you pick a proper server. Dark Crag(oRvR) or Iron Rock(Core) being the two largest, while Praag, and Phoenix Throne is other larger ones. I never have any issue finding World RvR on DC, nor getting into Scens.

I may just sub again this autumn just to watch the game's population plumate when the new mmo's start to be released, the boards will be hilarious.
Really? Is that all you had to say? Keep negative comments to yourself specially if you are not paying, nor playing it. This game is rebounding, like it or not. I am seeing a surge in population, sure there will be people saying otherwise, but if you are on the right server you would notice it.

I would not be surprised if they turn it into a free to play game...
Some people rob you at gun point..Others will rob you at "Ball Point Pen"
I have a month left on my subscription so will play it out until the end I guess but I am planning to have a look at aion but it looks like another guildwars. In some ways I think maybe I'm starting to get too old for games and should start looking for another hobby.
There is alot of talk in game about leaving for aion when its released, gonna be interesting to see what happens then.

Exactly.
You heard the man. There's at least 4 decent choices for you to take. You fools who picked one of the other 53 servers should have used your head and rolled on a decent server instead of come here to whine about your lack of ability to chose wisely.
If the designer of Land of The Dead don't know how badly it affected the game. I could tell you an example, you have a nice looking villa, and you placed a Coffin in the living room, so when you get tired of sitting in the sofa, you could lie in the coffin. Everytime you go in the coffin, you get rewards but lose your life gradually. You are cursed by your own device.

Maybe that comment is a bit over the top, but it is representative of what is going on. The game is down to 4 decent servers now. Shortly after the mergers there was about a dozen decent med/med servers with a few getting to high on either/both sides. What you are seeing as a swell in a few servers is most likely the result of players who still enjoy the game self migrating to servers with a decent population. It has happened in a number of games before which is why you always see people recommend Bria for swg or Antonia Bayle for EQ2.
Mythic was stupid for pushing the land of the dead live as it was. The design is counterproductive to a RvR game. Encouraging players to hide in a pve zone for the majority of the day works directly against what they have been making changes to encourage since the games release. Getting people into the RvR lakes was a serious problem, which land of the dead is not achieving and actually having the reverse effect.

Exactly. This Brif dude doen't even list WAR as a game he is playing or has played. Typical troll.
I play on Dark Crag and I'm always surrounded by people, except for T1. In fact, the last three nights, we had so many people shoved into the keeps, the lag was clearly noticable.
If this game is dying, someone forgot to tell the players.

That's the whole problem the only server Fanboi's all shout about is Dark crag, is that all this games come down to after barely 9 months 1 solitary server that's a pretty sad state of affairs if you ask me.

I play on Dark Crag because its an oRvR server. There are only two of that play type out of 15 servers. I suspect a lot of others play there because they like the oRvR envronmrent better than standard RvR, PvE, or RP. Praag is the other oRvR server and its just as busy.
Advice: Do some homework to avoid inserting foot in mouth in the future.

Why would I need to do homework all the fanboi's do is say DC is great reroll DC and you won't regret it DC that DC this DC's the savior of WAR blah blah it's the same on every forum.
That's the beauty of a rock / paper / scissors paradigm, there is no balance. It's also the least enjoyable method of PvP in my book. Who the hell, other than sadists and masochists would find it amusing to always loose to certain classes no matter how well you play. It's frustrating as hell and that's a bad thing when PvP isn't that popular to begin with.
In my opinion, their entire game design is flawed and I can't see them ever digging themselves out of that mucky hole. When you can't even appeal to your niche market, something is seriously wrong.
With PvE raiding, it has never been a question of being "good enough". I play games to have fun, not to be a simpering toady sitting through hour after hour of mind numbing boredom and fawning over a guild master in the hopes that he will condescend to reward me with shiny bits of loot. But in games where those people get the highest progression, anyone who doesn't do that will just be a moving target for them and I'll be damned if I'm going to pay money for the privilege. - Neanderthal
