We have a catch 22 here. If people do not subscribe because of the current lag situation it won't improve. but get worse as income might not even high enough for the current used low power server.
"I would play but the player base is to small, thats why I do not play" . A death spiral many mmos games face.
I suggest a prepaid system instead (or on top) of the current pay monthly subscription plan. With perks the more money you deposit. The only reason I wait until I hit level 125 with my main skill, is the outdated subscription model. You always pay for the full month but might only play a few days, or do not play full time for a certain time period (and feel forced to play as you pay for something) .
That way winchgate can work with the money players deposit, and do not struggle as soon as peopel unsub for a break or whatever ) summertime for example
Sorry for my english ;)
PS: Yesterday a GM hop on and notified everyone connected during that time that the lags should be fixed, and since then they only happen here and there .
