New Tier, Zone and Bolster Changes
Posted: Fri Sep 08, 2017 5:08 pm
I have been gone for a year, just came back due to seeing an increase in population. The new Tier, Bolstering and Map participation changes are working very well. Yes there is a Zerg, but there will always be a Zerg. A Zerg is far better than a weak population.
Sometimes games harm their interacting population by creating new environments that fragment the overall population. Coalescing the population is a great goal. Its better to see several hundred players in one Zone than to see mere dozens or scores scattered across many Zones that do not interact. Plus lower level players or rerolls get to play with their friends almost immediately. Also its fun to go back and play maps that some of us skipped over quickly to get to the main action. Playing Tier 2 maps while being a Tier 4 toon is like playing a whole new game.
This is a hit, Devs please keep working in this direction. Kudos!
Cheers!
