The economy is fucked up and it is time for a reset. I can't believe a mod like Mercenaries is more alive than this. THERE IS NO UNDERSTANDABLE REASON FOR ME AS TO WHY SOMEONE WOULD CHOOSE TO PLAY MERC OVER CRPG. But that's just my opinion I guess. Anyways back to topic
-In Mercenaries, there is no unfair leveling system and everyone is on equal footing!
Thats written on the main page of the Mercenaries site.
-Everyone is equal there and only skill matters.
-Gear is only there for your playstyle.
-You could go with a peasant armed with a pitchfork and still be able to 1v3 knights in full armour.
-No annoying upkeep.
-You can sell/buy gold in mercs for irl currency or other games.
-Happy Hour which makes people come online just for that double gold for 1 hour. (after that the playerbase falls off from 200 to 90-120)
-Every piece of equipment has been looked at by the developer (also the only developer) Homer. and made sure if its of high texture quality. There are some items in Crpg of HORRIBLE texture quality which
is just ugly. In mercs every weapon and armor is nicely textured. (except the longbow)
Not only weapons and armor but Banners too Only 3-4 colors are allowed to be put on a banner and it needs to have a default dirt texture over it. But in Crpg...There are so many stupid looking banners in Crpg it just completely ridiculous how those banners are even allowed.
(My little pony banner, Dancing banana meme, Doge meme...seriously?)
-Matchmaking is balanced. There will always be an equal number of classes on every team. 5 cavs on red and 5 cavs on green. same goes for Horse archers and regular archers.
-The website feels... nice to look at and navigate through. Crpg website on the other hand feels very clunky and as if it has been made by a mediocre webpage designer. (This is just criticism i do not want to insult anyone here) Also do not forget that some items aren't even shown in the shop. Meaning you have to buy them first, so that you can take a look a them.
-Mercenaries is focusing only on one era. And thats the medieval times in Europe and middle east mostly before and in the era renaissance 10th to 14-15th century armor and weapons. While Crpg is just a complete mess. In one way its a good thing that Crpg has so many items which allows for some rp people to make historic or fantasy characters. But on the other hand its just stupid to see a medieval knight from the 12th century fight a...aztec warrior running around with a Macuahuitl. A Macuahuitl seriously? I won't deny that Mercenaries also has an item not belonging to Europe but that item is intentionally named ''Strange Sword'' (Katana) because it doesn't belong in Europe and people living in that time would be wierded out by that type of weapon.
-Looms are a completely stupid idea. Makes your op character have EVEN MORE op weapons than the beginners who started playing. Its just boring for the beginners to wait and get enough experience to level up and at least have a chance of killing a max lvl tincan with op stats and weapons. Why don't you just make them restricted on only some weapons. And make the looms only change the weapon by looks and not stats. And if you think that's a stupid idea then just think about CS:GO. In CS:GO cosmetic items like skins don't do anything to help your performance but make you feel good. People will farm looms so that their weapons and armor look more nice, so that they feel better. Its just human psychology...I think.
I mean it works in Mercenaries. There are rare items that are of ridiculously high price, like the Noble Plate (140k) 53 Body armor vs Plate Armor (25,5k) 53 Body armor. And people still buy the more expensive one!...Why? Because it makes them think that they are some sort of rich and highly looked-upon person. (which they kinda are at least to some new players). I don't wanna sound like a smartass but its all about that self-pride and self-loving when it comes to these sort of things.
What Crpg needs is strict quality control. Remove low textured and retarded looking weapons and armor...especially those damn Aztec weapons...God. (honestly what were you thinking?)
Remove the leveling up system. Make everyone the same level, for example level 40 ( i don't know which level is considered to be average here)
Make stricter rules for banner making. It always throws me off seeing a god damn MY LITTLE PONY banner in the middle of the battlefield.
