This Week in Ragnarok August 5th, 2022

If a third, "fresh" server is spinning up, which server(s) will continue to receive new content going forward?

Why not both? But if Chaos gets a privilege to receive OCPs, this new server should have an update privilege to receive it first, then Chaos.

I liken RO to a game of monopoly that lasts a couple years or more. It's a very long game but it inevitably ends, even if you can come sit at the table and make deals with the other players. A new server is like starting a new round, which is why I personally enjoy playing fresh iterations of this ancient game.

A lot of people feel the way you do, so just enjoy playing at the OG table, then.

But there lies a way bigger problem. We already have a server full of bugs and problems. So lets split time and resources on another new server. Okay. Gg IRO

I actually lol'd at this because of how true it is.

It's not how an mmorpg should be, but it's what iRO has come to until someone with power and vision says "no more".

Actually no need to make a new server. Just let Chaos be the home of new comers.

So are Chaos folks willing to have all items wiped to 0?

Why chaos needs a wipe to celebrate a soon-to-be-ghost-town new server? If that’s in ur personal wishlist, camp please wipe Chakri in chaos.

U just retired transcendence not so long ago, may I know the motivation to open a new server again in the near future? Maybe u can pretend u busy working without doing what u ought to do like fixing bugs in chaos first?So I should also believe u have a very mature plan for revenue generation for the new server right? Many people here already showing some willingness to try the new server, so CAMP, please do NOT use the revenue generated by Chaos to support the new server, thanks.

So why are you trying to stop WP from creating a new server? You dont like it, dont play. New players dont wanna play Chaos. Maybe that's why even countless updates, server population is still 1k, or even less. Its a good thing WP is opening a new server to welcome new players from private servers that have already closed, or soon-to-close such as nova. Soon to be-ghost-town? Not really, if they keep bringing updates to the new server, probably even prioritize it before Chaos. I'm sure the new server will have more population, so Camp should not mess up the chance ya know     

 

You absolutely dont have to worry about their revenue. OCPs/Kachues for Chaos and Thor, while new server should use a subscription model. $X per account per month. VIP extra O.O"

So you think this new server will maintain players, while charging a monthly sub when we have mutiple bugs that havent been rectified in chaos, among other things that people complain about daily on here (FAS, costume enchant list,Sprite Errors, ) etc. And for what. SO this server can end up like Valk, Ymir, multiple attempts at Classic and transendence. A quick search on youtube shows how much p server players trust any of the official servers so im not sure but im one person. Could be wrong but idk dude.

I am NOT stopping WP starting a new server, nor do I worry about its potential revenue. I was just wondering why they made that decision and asking to have the new server cover cost purely by its own revenue from the very beginning. I wish u will enjoy the new server and never come back to Chaos anymore once it opens

Please don’t misinterpret my posts and use that as imaginary evidence to argue back, thanks.

Alright then all good. Lets support WP's new server and once it dies, it will just be merged. No a big deal.

multiple attempts at Classic 

 

Classic was a success. It lived and died as all things should (looking at you Chaos).

In a perfect world there would be an iRO classic and iRO renewal, both well maintained without bugs, and that would be that.

 

Personally, I think iRO Classic was a success, perhaps not in terms of longevity, but in terms of flow (It had a big boom, got popular, had a healthy WoE, and by the time battlegrounds came along it dwindled, and we left with some good memories). It might not be a bad idea to have a classic server that resets every 3-4 years, and transfer the accounts to Chaos at the end of the term with some sort of reward based on your level.

 

But I digress. I think a lot of us are looking at this new server as being a problem-for-problem, beat for beat flow of Chaos, when it's not impossible to imagine that there could be improvements. Last I.T. maintenance the notes said there was a hardware update. For all we know they brought in more reliable tech for the new server.

Hi @Campitor is there any spoilers for this week (which I assume a content/kachua/ocp) maintenance? or new Good morning thread since we are approaching September.

 

Thank you so much.
