Dec 5, 2013 18:14:24 GMT Post by SilkTricky on Dec 5, 2013 18:14:24 GMT Last few nights it's been next to nothing. Here are a few ideas to get some of that back: - More of an Admin presence - Spawn in vehicles, right now there are none - Get some good vehicles in game, take the training wheels off the server and get helis with rockets and tanks and advertise that. - Vehicle missions are a vast majority of the missions can that be lowered? - Heli crashes are gone, at least I haven't seen one in a while - anything else cool that can be added. - clan packages, something to get them to come to the server. Hope the server doesn't die, seemed like a great group.

Dec 5, 2013 19:35:27 GMT Post by Tamaster92 on Dec 5, 2013 19:35:27 GMT Heli crashes are the same, just they are rare (and kind of terrible) I'm busy doing other stuff, Qauntum has work now and dunno bout Tiger Vehicle missions shouldn't be any higher than any other type, that will be fixed Clan packages are a good idea, what kind of thing you thinking of? And I'm not sure about crazy tanks etc :/ I wanted it to be a sort of survival epoch server but it doesn't really seemed to have worked out that way does it? It isn't the end though, server is payed till January at the least, might switch it to a standalone server then though. Depends on tons of stuff.

Dec 5, 2013 19:46:32 GMT Post by SilkTricky on Dec 5, 2013 19:46:32 GMT I saw Tiger on over the weekend, stayed on for a while which is good. Clan packages - tons of building supplies to get them started? Tank etc.. this server gets to endgame quickly mainly because the amount of custom military bases-you get geared fast. I honestly think that's a good thing. If that's the case the more vehicle options the better. Basically I just think you need those one or two gimmicky things to recreate interest. Tanks and rockets are hot right now, the servers that have them are popular. FYI - standalone scares me personally, I vote to keep it epoch, read this if you haven't already - www.joystiq.com/2013/12/04/dayz-creator-stresses-standalone-alpha-is-a-platform-for-the-f/

And I really enjoyed the hunger games, just it kind of messed up when it didn't work properly

Dec 6, 2013 9:10:22 GMT Post by chilled on Dec 6, 2013 9:10:22 GMT Yea I agree with Madjim,this was the best epoch server in my opinion,survival,lots of pvp and some other cool features like missions where there were many awesome fights and if the server would get more players,it will be the best again imo. I recommend adding used car lots to the coast ,this would make more people to join because they can get up north easier and noone likes running 6k to stary. Clan packages are also a good idea but every one shoult get it,it isnt really fair that 10 guys get a lot of stuff and start building and 1 poor guy has to do everything himself.

Dec 6, 2013 16:14:37 GMT Post by SilkTricky on Dec 6, 2013 16:14:37 GMT Cool so far this is what we're suggesting we could use to help the server pop: - Used car lots (this is awesome btw) - Tanks/Turreted vehicles and/or rockets (I would recommend making the tanks umber expensive to buy or maybe something that can only be found) - Clan packages, Chilled-the idea here is a promotion for bringing lots of people to the server. But maybe there are two different packages? One for new players and one for Clans (4+ players) And once in place change the server listing to reflect all the new goodies. That should help.

I think used cars on the coast is a great idea and if advertised in the server name should get a ton of people to join since most want to get straight into the action instead of walking up north.
