Jeeeez guys don't you miss these cool servers!? we get it, we suck. Now come back roarion!
Probably unlikely for the following reasons,
1) Not a lot of people play enough of the content for the amount of time put in. Some quests take me 6-7 hrs to make only to have 1 person do them in 20-40 minutes.
2) Wouldn't want to open the same server again and just have people play the same content over.
3) Making new content takes a long time, working now and in my spare time have been playing Overwatch (PC) or working on other personal projects with some new Google APIs.
4) Player base is very small, a number of people abuse macros, banning those people leads to an even small server.
5) Very small population makes traders useless since it's more optimal to be a trader first and then remake with all of your supplies.
6) Hard to host events / other fun stuff with scripts with small number of players. I'm not really interested in going on that ini grind again after making Future from scratch and would be more interested in dealing with server side scripts.
7) A lot of the people I use to play with have quit the game.
8- V2 has limitations on how unique the server can really be. It also has annoying bugs that can be difficult to deal with. The source code for V2 will probably never be released and would cause fragmentation / further difficulty playing or getting new players.
9) I will have to be the sole admin on the server meaning i'll have to deal with any player's request / complaints and general server maintenance. Really liked having Miggi as an admin in the past but people complained about him to death. Mysti was an absolute turd admin / hard to deal with and I just quit with her after her fit about turning big trees into small ones. Still doesn't make sense to me.
10) Lots of people have the Hex / Hexed files and could try to open a server from them, if you have any questions you can directly PM me i've helped a lot of people set up servers. I think only 2 people have the complete bug free Future files. I only shared them with someone I could see making a competent server.
V6 is also being actively worked on? I was hoping that would just be a better overall version of V2 but it seems like it will have different mechanics or is being taking in a different direction. So IDK, I haven't played it in a while so my mistake if that's not the case anymore. If it brings in a bunch of players by some miracle or ever gets finished I wouldn't mind doing some collaboration work on that.
Don't get me wrong I still sometimes feel like making / adding on to my Future server. But the game has much less players then Hex which came out 3-4 (?) years ago and was able to get 50 players somehow during the launch. When Future came out a year (?) ago I can't remember seeing over 20.
