Take Back Trueflame

Jules

/TAKE TWO

Haderus is clearly gone. It is not a small scale server at this time and it does not look promising in the near future.

Let's try this on Trueflame instead:

Can we all agree to make one of the campaigns (e.g. haderus since it's the least populated) a small scale pvp zone? Group size is limited to 8. No one sieges any inner keeps, only keeps around the IC circle.

I understand groups of 8 may merge from time to time in the middle of battle, but we won't have ball groups of 15+. Just imagine how much fun that would be. The larger guilds can operate in AZ and have their massive scale PvP.

Can people tag @ names for guild leaders? Let's give it a shot as a community!

P.s. I understand that this will be hard to enforce. But many small scale pvpers are leaving this game and we need to work together as a community to create an enjoyable experience for all, including those that don't want to play in large groups.

TF is generally lower pop than Azergas and Haderus, and could flourish from some competitive small scale PVP. All it really needs is for larger groups to be respectful of this, and smaller groups to gravitate toward this server so fights are plentiful. Honestly, something needs to happen because people are more desperate than ever. Please give this some thought!

I like it.

I'd love this. The only concern, as you stated, is whether or not larger groups will / want to live up to it.

Would love to see this happen not only to encourage small group but also solo play. Haderus was a great place to play small scale for a while but then some of the larger guilds caught wind of the fun that was occurring and decided that could not be so they rolled up 20 deep and turned it to lagderus. The game really needs this if it wants to keep any sort of small organized play alive while we wait for BGs.

Oh now we want to go back to Trueflame

Lf zerg group for TF

Yes, lets make it happen!

Cody

why the heck not. the lag from Azura's start is going to drive me away from this game yet again if I continue to play in it. DBZ abridged only helps so much.

Axyredo

Please make this happen!

lolz.. every time one of these threads goes around the "lets go to server X" ends up a zerg infested lag hole just like the server that was abandoned. Nice try, but this is fail before it even started.

Ghost-Shot

A forum thread was probably a bad idea, now I'm waiting for that server to get zerged to hell all weekend.

DisgracefulMind

Guaranteed it will get zerged down now.

Teargrants

Soon.

God_flakes

It needs to be zerged by blue and red-yellow night caps which chases any real game play away.

I just contacted goldcocks and they are down for some small scale 50v12 pvp tonight. See you there!

I think Vokundein could make an appearance with some small groups on our off nights.

Thanks for pushing for better server performance and organized gameplay, @Jules.

BigTone

Just remember that not everyone has the same definition of "small group"

I usually run 70 deep, so I'll bring my 20 person "Small Man"

See you zergbads in TF

Jules

I get that everyone wants to make lighthearted jokes about zerging and whatnot. But truthfully, I really do hope that larger guilds (VE, Rage, Haxus, Khole, TM, CN, ect ect ect) will respect this if TF does indeed move in more of a direction of small scale. This game is bleeding players as it is. The populations on PC NA are lower than any other megaserver and that is indicative of our community and how fed up we are with multiple aspects of this game.

Everyone can have their opinions of how this game is intended to be played, 24v24, RvR, 1v1, ect, but at the very least we could respect that some do not always want to fight 4v48 and leave atleast one server as playable for small scalers until arenas.

Second this.

Manoekin

So I can't zerg it? Of course not why would I only want to kill enemies 4 at a time and in short intervals. If 8 is the limit I may show up at random times when we have that many though, if azura is dreadful as always.

God_flakes

Bottom line is this game doesn't REWARD small group play. There is really no advantage or benefit to it. Maybe bragging rights or something but who cares?

@God_flakes Next patch AP gains will be DOUBLED for groups up to six players.

Correct.

Also should be noted:
- no objectives aside from resources to provide small man focus.
- emp is currently only AP based system forcing a map push. Requires large raids to succeed.

Therefore, in conclusion, nothing exists for players to focus on small group combat.
