What would make you come back?

[Ikarus]

we should get a clanless or just a group TS for everyone on siege for ex, attacking and defending side, that would be great

wait, that´s actually a really good idea
a ts for siege and a ts for battle

...or a really bad idea?

[Dupre]

The 3 of us only found the mod because we wanted a coop version of M&B, Nazi-Zombies style, and DTV was great for that back in the day.

Same here, I only found c-rpg cause I watched some videos of DTV. I  spent my first year on DTV server before I even touched Battle or Siege server(I got owned on every time I joined battle or siege)

 The C-rpg team should really put a little more love into DTV, making new maps, new bosses, and maybe even adding rewards for kills or something(more exp each round, timelimit and exp gain should be adjusted, and maybe even a reward for beating the game...). I think putting some love into DTV will bring back some players, help current noobies and bring in some new players to c-rpg.

If they fix the lag then most definitely.

I hope this helps improving DTV.

Come back to crpg?  No, not when the community is slowly moving on to other games.  I intend to play forumrpg for a little bit until that dies off too.

i dont agree that crpg players are more skillful

It's hard to discuss with you if you don't want to agree that veteran/hardcore players who spent in game 1000+ hours on average are better/more skilled than new/casual players with circa 100 hours. And it's blatantly obvious that almost all players in cRPG are veterans. Every time I join the game I know 3/4 of the players on the server, some of them since 2010, and those few who I don't recognize are mostly alts  On the other hand on most populated servers in native every second player can not block consistently or can not block at all, so it's safe to assume they're newbies/casual players.

I ofc don't say that top tier native players are worse than top dogs from cRPG.

Teeth and Thomek, ye, new players need other new players to kill. Crpg is a mod and always will be a mod that favours the best gear, build and ping. 'Skill' is a factor, but if you consider that until very recently a new player does not have the physical ability to stagger someone in proper armour it's easy to see why so many quit,

Go online to find the 'optimal' builds and gear, grind some levels, max loom everything, know which mechanics actually differ from native, make sure your ping is nice. Now Average Joe Native is ready to compete with the top 90% of crpg. I consider those things to be the real 'skill-ceiling' of crpg,

That's ofc true that you need proper gear (not necessarily loomed) and build to compete on more or less equal footing with other players. But it was incomparably easier to start playing in cRPG 3-4 years ago than it's now, even though leveling was much harder, level difference was much bigger and looms were more powerfull. And that's because there were plenty of new players on the servers. I was awful in 2010 and early 2011 (not that I'm better now  ), hardly could block more than 2 swings in a row and still was able to get a fair share of kills, thanks to all these peasants populating cRPG at that time. These days your average joe who plays 5 hours per week will not meet another peasant, because among 50 players on all cRPG servers there are none of them. And that's the main reason why new/casual players won't play in cRPG, not gear or build.

[Switchtense]

Gear players a significant role though.

A peasant can kill a fast agi whore that is wearing light gear, even if that guy is the most skilled player ever. But he simply cannot kill Butan, even if he is afk. Because he cannot deal any damage no matter what.

[Gravoth_iii]

A peasant would imply that he has retired though, because new players start at level 25 or so with a couple of looms and at that point they should be able to dish some damage out.

[Leshma]

These days most of us play like we've came straight from native neogk server. Due to lag, feints and intended chambers are nonexistent. Blocks are also scarce, because of server issues.

[Falka]

Well, yes, lag is pretty awful, but for some reason on eu1 it seems to be worse.

[Switchtense]

On DTV I have had no issues at all. But on EU2 and EU1 it was making it downright unplayable.
Problem with DTV is that it is boring as fuck after a round or two

Need Vivi and the good old maps back! Hell, even the shitty exploitable ones. Everybody and their mother is level45 nowadays anyway, that bit of exp you get from exploiting Rizi or Isti won't do shit anyway.
But these were the most fun maps, and the ones that brought people in!

[Switchtense]

Probs still less exp than double exp servers anyway so who cares?

That as well.

[Vilde_II]

I would change the exp/gold system back to what it was, since the current system is so ridiculous. Maybe I could play also if something was done to the completely retarded repair/upkeep system which makes absolutely no sense at all... Why does my armor get blown into pieces after one round even when I'm headshotted from somewhere far away INSTANTLY dying? One thing also.. If the game even actually WORKED. Most of my friends cannot even start the game anymore after the great patching that has been made.

So yeah, if I remember correctly, after making any kind of suggestion here at the forum, I will be flamed to the deepest hell and most likely banned or something (I tried to suggest some casual things a year ago or something and this happened .. see my infame rating thing? all I have ever posted here has been SUGGESTIONS TO THE MOD.)... So I guess this is good bye. xD

If fixing the items doesn't fix the lag when the next patch happens, I'll remove any of my changes that may add extra computation for the server for the patch after next. It's either the items, the HA change, or the servers themselves.

[San]

I think chadz did that himself. I wouldn't mind joke items being added if they were super expensive (>20k) so they wouldn't be used too much.
