HAHA! As a ro player, we all think the same thing. TwRO also had a long silent time to no new player joining, until today. But although transfering to Gravity, its all piece of ! The BOT is flying all the map of the spore&savage area, and we already have maintenance in continuous three days, but the bug still exist...XD In TwRO, we all say iRO is more fun to play because of less BOT. And we dont have BBQ and TI, its the most important point I dont want to play. No BBQ means we got less money and exp in the game. In ur forums, novice always asks how they can earn the 1.25B to rebirth. So...Each have their own problems. At least, just have fun, untill we all leave RO. ;D
BOTs will always exist, but in a server with 20k people, if you have 2k BOTs you still have good woes, populated grind spots, dynamic game.
Now imagine a server with 400 people with no bots... how this server can get new players when a newbie won't find any party, have over-priced items and cannot make any MvP because few high-geared players will monopolize all spots ?
I personally don't look at TW-RO as a perfect server, I see this like a good idea that can spread for other servers. here in Brazil we have a huge problem: players want a old/golden times server (without 3rd classes), but BR publisher told us that gravity wouldn't give support to this kind of server and Level Up is a terrible company, so it won't move any stick by itself. May with this project going ahead, Gravity can relaunch RO on international and local servers recalling old players.
Low bot population and no bugs are just luxury, what me and great part of old RO players really want are high population + No item dupe + Low ping/FPS drop + ADMs really investigating reports of cheaters/botters.
my dream is have another woe like this but with less lag/fps drop
