Re: Interesting data on latest patches
That’s not what I said. I said the pop has dropped dramatically almost over night because of a TERRIBLE balance patch the was squarely aimed at Destro and healers for some reason followed by a loss of a QoL add on that many many players used and didn’t abuse.Kaelang wrote: ↑Thu Jun 03, 2021 5:31 pmI genuinely wanted to read this as a well thought out and constructed post - until I saw this: The recent drop in population is directly related to the newly implemented imbalance and the loss of NB.Duukar wrote: ↑Thu Jun 03, 2021 3:35 pmI'm a Destro main player with many very active discords for over 1.5 years now.

We need to remember that we're moving into the summer months, and in the UK alone it's been one of the hottest months in years.
There are also some very big titles being released (or rereleased lol) that will be pulling players.
The ebb and flow of population is normal with RoR and it happens year after year - this being said it's something we do look at - it's just not something we'll start making development calls based on.
It's very easy for someone who is unhappy with a patch / change to identify the change in population (based on multiple factors) and link the two together - scaremongering.
But no, there's no planned double XP weekend just yet.
The recent drop in population is directly related to the newly implemented imbalance and the loss of NB. Summer months can also play a role, but I wouldn't anticipate this much of a drop during continued Covid protocols and travel restrictions.
At the moment most often Order outnumbers destro nearly 2-1.. I've Personally participated in multiple forts with never before seen imbalance.. Like 150 Order vs. 80 destro.. 100 order vs. 30 destro and 110 order vs 60 destro in the last 48 hours. Order is pushing to IC on such a rate that It barely reaches Rank 2 if at all. Its just lots of free bags playing PvE.. You guys MUST be seeing this data.. Its all factual..
We are TELLING you in 100s of posts that youve made a mistake in two major patches in a row. Youve completely chased off older gamers and people with disabilities. Youve made life much more difficult for casuals who want to relax and play. Youve introduced a disastrous balance patch that is very widely accepted as very harmful to Destro realm health and morale.
I continue to play and hope for the best. I emplore you to re-introcude nerfed buttons without its check and automatic funcionality. I knew a ton of players who used it as nothing more than a convenience. You need to remember your average age of gamers playing RoR arent the 20 year old FPS gamers..
Good luck with this path you guys are choosing and continuing to choose.. Everyone I play with LOVES this game with nearly no limit.. I wonder where they all went?
We have enough threads open and following the feedback for the NB changes, amongst other things. This has been said by multiple team members.
No matter what you may, or may not believe, we aren't trying to drive the server to a 0 population experience. But to say that 'EvErYoNe HaS lEfT bEcAuSe Nb Is GoNe' is just false.
I know you know that’s what I wrote. Why the ofuscation?
Re: Interesting data on latest patches
Pop is 1100 atm. I guess I was wrong. Sorry.
Re: Interesting data on latest patches
I think I'm gonna blame Secrets for leaving.
Re: Interesting data on latest patches
How many players do you reckon we lost because of the terrible initial balance that meant there was an easy side and a hard side?? How many of those LazyPeon players on Order wouldve stayed if they hadn't been getting smacked in city every day?Duukar wrote: ↑Thu Jun 03, 2021 8:18 pmThat’s not what I said.

Now that the realms are closer in balance we'll lose less people over time.

Re: Interesting data on latest patches
A rapid population drop due to the inactivation of NB isn't to be expected. If such hypothetical loss of players would to happen it's gonna be more of a creep over time, due to a subtle increase in physical strain and mental fatigue impacting people's enjoyment of the game. For those affected by it, eventually just logging on to their characters will be enough for them to experience small amount of stress, disincentive the players from playing the game due to the negative associations in the stress managing system, making the effort of playing feel futile, and they will be off doing something that they perceive as rewarding instead.

Re: Interesting data on latest patches
I have shown population throughout my weekday streams for years. And I have done it last several weeks also. If you want to see daily EU prime time weekday population , it’s still 1200 people ( + /- 5%) in game or so. The same it has been for years. Late night NA has ALWAYS been the lowest time and nothing yet has touched how it was prior to the Peon video 250ish people logged into the game.
If you want to believe what I’m “saying” is false , please go watch my Twitch Vods, I show population several times everyday.
And if Twitch VoDs isn’t enough time frame, my YT has videos from years ago, so you can watch the population numbers from that .
And we have more streamers now that actively stream daily than I would say we ever have ( except loot drop ) so again if you want to say my video recorded evidence is me lying watch them.

Re: Interesting data on latest patches
I remember the daily 1 star altdorfs and destro spawncamping us, trying to pull us through the barrier.
Interesting how many Destro mains seem to forget that.
But the Tide of War always shifts back and forth endlessly. That’s what makes this game fun and interesting.
