Should Phantasy Open?
« on: November 26, 2012, 10:33:29 am »
Wondering if I should wait to open Phantasy cuz the player population is too small too support several active worlds.
You may have conquered my worlds, but I destroyed them!

It's a tough one, personally I was really looking forward to Phantasy as it seems a lot of work has gone into it.  But yeah a lot of player-run worlds are popping up.  I can't actually think of any successful ones off the top of my head apart from Kirin (even that only lasted a month or so)  so I reckon see how Ganymede is doing mid December, and make a decision then.

I dont care tbh. My only wish about the new server is that its philosophy behind it should not be "I throw you a playable server so that you wont distract from rpgwo while my v4 work is progressing so when it will be done i will close Phantasy so that all players from v1/v2 would have to migrate to v4 eventually" - like.

there isn't an open it now option...if you add that I'll vote for it!

ganymede is down(or atleast its unavailable every time I try to log in) I am playing the new Lumeria though...but hes planning to restart soon so you'll have plenty of players.
why does Fox keep cancelling good shows?

So, you want a Java or HTML5 version of the client? I am actually open to this idea.

I think you should open it if you are ready by that time. I think everyone was anticipating Dec 1st because of the server. If you need more time, I doubt there will be too many people who are upset. I saw alot of people on ganymede the first day.

Open it on the 1st.

I don't doubt that the people running these other servers have the best intentions but there's just no way I can trust any player admins I've competed with on other servers.

Most of them are people who argue, smack talk and usually have no problem skirting around the rules for a slight advantage in-game. (I do include my self in this category). Nothing against them personally but I'd much rather play a server ran by someone who I know for sure won't mess around.

Besides, you announced Phantasy quite awhile ago and these inconsiderate people didn't realize this situation would occur? Christ they started making these servers like what a week ago??

I say release it, i doubt the new worlds have put as much effort in as you have with your new quest/dungeouns.

I say open phantasy. Like kaios stated already, people cant be trusted. On that note i know a fist full of people purely waiting on phantasy. There whole population is just a small group of there friends. there "17" player peek was just becouse theres no where els to play so people pop on to see whats going on.

Yeah, where have you been? I haven't got a perk donation/payment in like 5 years. Hmm, well, maybe I got some when I started V2 but that was like 2007, 2008 or so.

But yeah, it can be risky trusting an unknown or non-regular admin. But Ganymede is run by ... hmm.. don't know now. I thought they were some of UT's old admins but I think I am getting them mixed up with some modern world admins.

Well, my point is I don't want to take the wind out of their sails cuz I know making and running a world is a lot of work to go wasted on population: self.

The only admin that was actually an admin worth their salt at one point would be Fly

Yeah, where have you been?

The same place you've been since 2007: stopped bothering with RPGWO.


Jokes aside, I didn't know you ever quit doing that because when I discussed it with others they didn't think anyone would play due to perks either.

thats basically what these guys have done to you by releasing a half arsed server a week before the announced release date. i say tiger them, open the server and let them watch their player base dwindle
