way ahead of you, retired crossbowbimbo and already back on lvl21 here

playing your way up from 1 is surprisingly refreshing

It's even more refreshing when everyone else is in the same situation and you see builds, weapon/armor loadouts and even occasionally roleplay characters take shape along the way.

ps: wipe, u nabs

if a man only has looms on an empty server, does he really have any looms at all?

I would gladly give up all my looms and lvls for pod back.

would actually really be fun to see a simultaniouse strat / database wipe.  then again mayhaps we are all just too old and have too much of a life to actually play this game.  dunno

simultaneous strat wipe / partial database wipe as we discussed earlier (old players have to "recover" their loomed items by retiring a couple of times) would be the best shot we could do imo, oldknights would have a motivation to play again without actually loosing their stuff and newknights would have similar chances without being stomped (lets be honest, meanwhile we wear our old builds+armor like a second skin). And thanks to the fast leveling (+generation xp bonus), it wouldn't take long to retrieve the old equip after all, it would create an interesting time at the beginning of strat. And hey, maybe some oldies find new, more interesting builds on their way back up? (which would make them trade their old looms with other looms, thus reactivating the trades/marketplace aswell?)

Really important though is to promote this fresh round properly. ModDB is one station, I think a thread on the taleworlds forum ("You wanna shorten the waiting time for Bannerlord?") would also help a lot. Maybe some of us can even create a small video/trailer for it? (I could help with some after effects stuff there)

Honesty is also important. Telling them that the servers are mostly empty for now and that most of the action will take place in strategus battles/DTV at first is vital. But we could use that a bit as a strength aswell: after all, castles in strat are easy to take when there's only a few people fighting over them. And then we only need two small groups of players to start bigger things, plans, recruitments...

btw what would you think would be a good "retrieve" ratio for your old stuff? 25% of your looms per retirement? More? Less?

I am 100% opposed to a full wipe. HOWEVER I think the partial wipe is a very good compromise and I wouldn't be /too/ butt blasted about having to retire a few times to get my looms back.

With no wipe - no-one plays. A wipe cant make the situation worse.

For me a no brainer, wipe now. If it doesnt work who gives a crap?

Just because you don't play doesn't mean that others don't play.

How many people are playing on average? I'd check myself but I can't access the website.

When we get people on for battle in na around 20. Strat battle we hosted for last Sunday had 60 sign ups and around 50 people showed. 5-10 players on dtv most days EU and NA.

Good numbers of new players coming in now as well thanks to moddb.

Rather than cry continuously for a full wipe that isn't coming if you like cRPG consider playing the game and getting on with some mates. Additionally feel free to join the discussion of a partial wipe. Something that is actually being considered.

Saying "don't cry" to people and giving witty answers in every thread about this subject doesn't work together at the same time you know.You should be extra careful especially now that you are at Developer status. You act like we are meanie people that want the mod to die, the way you talked to me in Discord, your forum replies etc. are the reasons I think this way. You used to say "we had a poll and it was 50/50 divided", now you are saying "your opinion is irrelevant because you don't play", I can't find any logic in this obviously. You are really bad at taking any sort of criticism James.

People don't play, because what are they going to do? Swinging at bots with other 7-8 people or dueling in laggy servers isn't fun. It isn't my "responsibility" to create activity in the game if there is nothing in it for me. If the "revival" meant doing events every now and then, congrats, we made it. But that isn't what revival is. Aim was to regain veterans, but veterans didn't quit playing in 2016 or 2017, they quit in 2014, because they finished the game, done every single thing that is doable, no more action for those people. By wipe we basically said lets enjoy the last bits of Warband because there is less than a year for Bannerlord, but no, you went full MUH LOOMS N LEVELS. And came up with something called "Partial Wipe"?. How does it make sense and up for discussion, while a full wipe is completely off limits? And if you people worked so hard for your loomies how do you agree with a "partial" wipe?

If all you wanted were those NA nights with 20-30 oldies memeing together -which so far I believe it was- , then congratulations, you got what you wanted.
