joeybob888 0 Posted June 12, 2019 The game is sadly dying out which every game does after the release, so i think some of the servers should be removed due to too many low pop servers. Its hard to play as a DUO in high pop servers and you can't find anyone in the low pops. i think the amount of US severs should be cut in half. lets hear your thoughts!

AirborneLawnDart 12 Posted June 12, 2019 (edited) I think it's mostly the loot nerf. Before the nerf, you'd have 5-7 full servers in the US at prime time (night). After the nerf it's 1-2. The main problem is.........now that loot sucks in the low pops, the only way to farm efficiently is to go to Military Base or Airfield. So you lose gear PVPing, go to a low pop to stock up, and get ganked while you're looting there. No way to replace gear efficiently = less pvp = more boring looting = less people playing the game. They need to revert the loot nerf. That's the only negative change I've seen so far (and yes I played the recoil patch, which needed work, but wasn't as bad as loot nerf). Games that are this GOOD, with LOW amounts of cheating............don't die this fast. The only major negative change has been loot. They need to remove the loot nerf before the population completely bottoms out. Every customer they lose is one that may NOT come back even after they fix it.

Midevil 21 Posted June 12, 2019 People are not leaving due to an inability to efficiently farm loot, people are leaving as they are getting bored from playing. there are currently only two different events in the game, compound fists and airdrops, ultimately dropping mid-tier or even low-tier loot. Yes, I know he plans to add more, and maybe more players will return when there are more things to do, but that is what I believe to be the largest problem (for me) rn. I have 150 hours in the game already, and have not yet once seen a vss or l96 that wasn't on the back of Joshua in a safe zone.. the loot here is not intriguing, but the pvp is.

Adding more events, which they are, would defs bring the player base back. Its just small right now with events and i agree. But i also think that the game should wipe every 2-3 months. Previously i thought otherwise but thinking about it, it would defs help as people just get stacked super quick 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have yet to get even 1 honey badger or sniper. If I did finally get one, and one random day I show up to an empty inventory..............uninstall time. Other games like Rust wipe because they can't handle the obscene base building mechanics. They don't need periodic wipes in Xera. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Midevil 21 Posted June 13, 2019 wiping every 2-3 months is a certified game killer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
