So I decided to make a move as a concerned citizen. Based on my observations, players are slowly quitting, if not too lazy to play ROSE Online, or many other reasons to mention here. Recently I've decided to play ROSE seriously and invest quite a money already (take note real money, well for me a 1,000 peso bill (PH money) is quite high for a game expense). Anyhow, ROSE has been really close to me, I don't know why but this used to be my stress reliever but now it has become my stress producer. Leveling, farming, and many other things that used to be fun is now in layman's term boring (or so I thought). I wouldn't waste any more time reminiscing the past but rather focus on what to improve. So here are my list of suggestion for you GMs out there. Take note this is only a suggestion but it may give you new ideas on reviving the old ROSE wherein people are very active whether in leveling, vending, PvPs, and the like.
1.) Posters
God I quitted a year ago and the poster are still the same. Posters are the best way to attract players since it will trigger their first impression about the game. With posters I mean, game poster in game, when it is in its loading state and this would also include poster in the official page. If I could remember it right there are only 4 to 5 posters available for download on that site.
2.) Promotional Videos
There are only 2 videos that I could watch. How will I be persuaded to play the game? Anyway, in my own perspective videos are a great way to endorse the game.
NOTE: GMs, got hectic schedule? Why not create a poster and video contest? For sure players would love to create their own and be acknowledge by the game and their work be used as a promotional material. Well of course winning piece should have some in game rewards. (of course they'll expect that)
3.) Events
Make an event that would also interest the newbies. With some events, only high players and rich players could actually finish and get the nice rewards. How about those little creatures wanting to be on top too? So make something about this matter.
Also make some new events (with new I mean new not repeated) every year so players would always expect and so they'll have something to look forward to every year.
Also do some commotions in Junon wherein people lax or stay AFK like maybe spawning loads of monsters that would kill all of them or maybe leaving a trail of epic drops but they'll never get it anyway or something similar to that.
4.) Leveling
*cracks knuckles* Now this is the crucial part. Now leveling should be fun to the point you're almost forgetting you're actually leveling. So my suggestions is this, make something that would interest old players with high level characters to make a new character. (Maybe a box with random super cool items when that new character reached max level e.g. 1%% drop rate of a prototype of FAITH items hahaha) Also, one reason that is why leveling is harder nowadays is because there is lower population of new players coming to ROSE so you should do something to address that problem. Maybe challenging old players to invite and bring 5000 new members in exchange of a x10 exp rate or 50% drop rate of epic +15 (just kidding) but you get the point. As long as there is a good reward waiting players would always try to do finish that task.
5.) Problems Arising
You should try to address every problems raised by the players. Some reasons of quitting are because of ignored tickets or ignored concerns. You should always try to fix and listen to their problem. Also being left hanging is the worst. When someone sends a ticket try to get back on that person as soon as possible Just even saying "Sorry but your request cannot be processed due to game rules and regulations" would be enough well of course state the reasons why it was denied. These are people with brains so probably they would understand.
Some suggestions are silly, I must admit but who knows it might trigger your brain into something more cool and interesting. If that happens you owe me a big time GMs. *loudest laugh of triumph* Anyway I'm not after any rewards for posting this topic (or maybe some lol) but I just want ROSE to be alive again.
Furthermore, I've heard there is a major change that would occur regarding the skills and damage thing, why don't you also put this into considerations before actually releasing that new update? So that when the time has come, it would really be a new ROSE Online they would download. START THE BIG CHANGE BEFORE ITS TOO LATE.
. That's just my opinion atm
