Yes it is. We had around 800to 900ppl before lazy peon at oeak hours during work daysDetangler wrote: Thu Jun 03, 2021 4:12 pm Is the population still way higher than before the LazyPeon influx? Then the population is just fine....
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.
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.

I know you know that’s what I wrote. Why the ofuscation?
