OFFICIAL NEWS

If the developers are able to come up with catastrophic events, I'd actually prefer the scenario where all are devestated and run back to the Ruins of Silan, or a simlar place, old characters die and pass on their knowledge to a "younger generation" who have to start afresh, with only the passed on knowledge.

Hello,

The whole Ryzom team was deeply touched by your general mobilization. We have read your many posts throughout the weekend.

Please remember that whatever your discontent every individual deserves respect. Slurs and other inappropriate comments are not acceptable.

We met this morning to consider the issue and take into account your remarks.

We still need time to find a viable solution and we will get back to you with a news as complete as possible in the coming days. Until then, the events for these next 2 weeks are continuing as planned.

Let us know if is anything else we can do. I'll keep loyal to Ryzom.

"May the Force be with you" :)

It makes no sense to keep skills if the intent is to make room for more new players. Stockpiles can be rebuilt fairly quickly and dapper will be easy to obtain as a high level player. In fact this would only serve to widen the gap between the haves and have-nots since newbies will not be able to compete for resources. My recommendation if any is to allow the subbed accounts to keep 250 levels of their choosing. This would allow people with exotic master skills to keep something, as well as allow lower level players to keep most of their work. At the same time it would also provide the opportunity for us to band together and rebuild things. I also imagine that the technical aspect of this wont be to large to overcome.

Dear Ryzom team who apparently reads these posts:

I'm new here. But I suspect I speak for the majority of players when I say, that if you do find a way to combine all without deleting current characters and guilds, you should also do a server roll-back to the date of the initial announcement. Many players gave up mass items, or guilds disbanded, during this time due to the announcement.

Hmm.. now this one is quite interesting and I think I may have to disagree. This is a good lesson in being too impulsive. :)

The vets also level a lot faster than the newbies. What now? Get rid of the vets completely?

New players will have the opportunity to craft items that are useable by others. The way the game was intended. They will have the chance to learn the regions the way it was meant for them to learn them - through exploration and teaming with others of their own level and a lot of hard work. They will experience the true difficulties of going from one capitol to another without the assistance of "trek masters" who will most probably have left the game. The new players will be given a chance to become significant instead of constantly in the shadows of the old-timers.

With this kinda logic, there should be a Toon wipe once a year to "accommodate new players".


I think it's a horrid thing to rudely chase off a loyal playerbase. Every MMO gaming community has its seasoned Vets, and incoming clueless newbies. That's part of life in any MMO. We're supposed to learn how to live & work together, not alienate half the populace just so newbies can feel significant right away.

Remember, once upon a time, these seasoned vets were exactly what you are describing... they were teaming with others of their own level and exploring and facing challenges together.

One day after you've "forged a new world together", I hope they zero out your skills for the sake of kids who are 5 years old now, who will feel put off by "vets like you" when they come of age to handle a keyboard & mouse.

Rollback should be implemented if they decide to transfer skills. Or we lose harv and jaim forever

Harv and Jaim are not a rollback. They are just reestablished toons. Of course that should be done. What this user wants is for all changes (including inventory changes) to be rolled back.
