Yeah, the fact that the game feels like there is nothing to do at 'end-game' is why I think the best way forward for SV is to, first, finish the basic concept of the game (this won't fix the problem, but it's 100% necessary if they are ever going to deliver on an even remotely balanced endgame...

If you tribute to me, Kaquenqos the springbok shagger, all of the gold stacks that you are pondering in stead to squander on these imposters who will do nothing for you, I will work day and night, ceaselessly, 24/7 around the clock, for you Myrlanders and your children, and their children's...

Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised to see pops jump up by a bit more than the 100ish we see today since the patch repacks the entire game on top of the already lengthy trademark (and abhorrent) Steam 'decompress/unpack while downloading while installing' system. This patch is taking a loooong ass...

Absolutely. A change in oversight like this is the only path to glory for SV. Henrik is in love with the creative end of video-game design. If you watch any of his streams, it's obvious. The unfortunate reality, though, is that all video-game design is not always about creating. Sometimes it's...

Yeah, the problem is it's more than a bit disingenuous to call MO2 a game '6 months after release', even though that's literally what it is (it was disingenuous of SV to 'release' in the state that they did). The state of the game is so unfinished, even though it's 1.0+ right now it really...

This. 1000000% this. They haven't even completed MO2 as a basic experience, the state of the game right now reminds me of Bannerlord when it launched in Early Access. They haven't balanced out a thing because some basic combat & clade skills are not even implemented to balance against, they...

One example is Albion Online, which boasts a healthy 6-10k population. You're right, there aren't many PvP oriented MMOs these days, and there are even fewer full-loot PvP ones-- but that's another matter. If you want examples of full-loot PvP games with better PvP mechanics than MO2 we've...

I agree, there is no reason to wipe at the present. Ultimately nothing has changed that would make the game be better in a year, even if they did wipe. It would be the same bogus exploits and bogus economy in one year's time anyway. If you wiped with advertising it might bring in some more...

I'm aware, I explicitly go out of my way to say that I doubt the terrible policy SV has on recent exploits, and all of the nodeline duping in the past etc., is the real source of broker inflation. I was just saying that lack of items on broker and 2-300% mark-up for basic goods is a sign of a...

lol bro MO1 was circling the sub-1k(considerably sub-1k, I might add) drain for the majority of its existence. It broke 1k briefly, for less than a month, right after it went free to play... For most of the time it existed it hovered around 100-300 pop. I get what you're trying to say regarding...

People saying the economy isn't wrecked because the price of steel is a constant is kind of disingenuous, since steel is one of the most sought after resources in the game & will be in supply to some extent right until the game is taken offline. In this case, obviously the constant competition...

amen, that's the fast track to the glory days of MO1 and its massive populations that far exceeded anything we see in MO2... Wait a second...! Seriously though, the game does need much better systems regarding PvP, but thinking that making it an absolute free-for-all is what will appeal to a...

Yeah, I think for this reason the PvP mechanics as a whole could use a rework. Drop the rep system. Beef up red towns with brokers, books, etc. full amenities... Allow reds to spawn at any priest (if they want to spawn in town and have guards called on them, so be it). Rework the bogus flag...

Yeah, I mean khurite 2h sword is the obvious meta... It should be apparent to any casual observer, just based on browsing markets & seeing what people have on their back.

That's very interesting. I wonder if they have any stats to back that up, because if we're just going by anecdotal evidence I definitely see waaaaaay more 2h swords than anything else on footies/MAs.

Yeah, I mean, definitely. I was just stating for the fun of making comparisons. The comparisons are not really relevant when deciding on what is good for gameplay, and frankly Nave isn't earth. It already features a bunch of fantasy elements/magic etc., so you can really argue anything that you...

Yeah, I mean, I understand all of that, my point is more from a gameplay perspective it would be nice if it was organic-mats>t2 metals>t3+metals, due to the difficulty & time sink of actually making t2 metals. Anyway, it's a game so real life comparisons are not that applicable and are just for...

Yeah, if you had that extra refining step to make it into some kind of composite compound & needed some kind of adhesive as flux to make it, that'd make sense. I should clarify, ultimately I don't mind that you can get decent gear without having to spend tons of money or be in a big guild that...

Yeah, but I mean, making a functional 3+ft blade out of teeth or even stone is never going to make sense. If you did get a slab of stone that big, it would shatter. Same with bone plate. You aren't going to be able to make a cuirass out of bones, for example. Lamellar? Scale? Sure, to some...

Yeah I'm definitely not saying it's something that should be priority versus other things that need work. I just find it a curious design choice. I don't see why bron is so gimped for slashing, while jadeite (again, a waste product) is close to steel. Meanwhile, as a consequence of bron's near...
