God bless Mack,
Swords would be refreshing, if it doesnt delay bayonets
Yes please.
Having a sword tournament wouldn't get in the way of any bayonet tournament since you can still have them. So remove the third option. kek

Completely agree with you.
Was chatting be with some that NW tournaments philosophically should remain bayonet. Since native has sword tournies. He asked me to put that option in the poll.

But that's just me.
Make NA1 fastest speed
Nobody cares about medium
Nuff said
Perhaps there should be an effort to bring more attention back to NA1? Instead of burying it under servers maybe make it a more prominent board and get some "official" endorsement considering it is an official server+1
Make NA1 fastest speed

I've been pushing for that for awhile. Going to bring it up again (realize though, the server box is ancient).

Keep it at it!
If there's anyone that can get it done, it would be you.
Perhaps you could get Thunderstormer on your side, that'd probs help a lot.
Eh, I only exclusively play battle. When I am not playing battle, im dueling. Now if you guys dont really care for battle, then I am not sure why you would even care about conversations of the melee speed on a battle server. From my perspective, changing the melee speed wont hurt the pop. The people who medium speed is supposed to help probably dont even know there are different melee speeds. and I doubt they would care if it was changed. The people who do care tend to like fastest. Now, not ALL people who care like fastest, but a majority do. Its the very reason I have avoided NA1 when possible.what other battle servers are there besides NA1? Not counting groupfighting servers of course.

I'd play NA1 on fastest. ;D
sorry I don't have warband installed on my phone but you kinda proved my point anyways. If you played on battle servers as often as you say, then don't you think you would know a couple of them?Eh, I only exclusively play battle. When I am not playing battle, im dueling.

I dont have Warband installed on this laptop but if you open up Warband, select the "Napoleonic Wars" module and then hit "Multiplayer" and "Join a game", you can open a filter in the top right that filters servers by game type. Here, you can select "Battle" and look for unpassworded servers.
I'd play NA1 on fastest. ;D
^ at the end of the day, NA1 really has nothing to lose but everything to gain by changing the speed.Basically. I thought the point of the slow melee speed was to give new players more of a chance, but there really are no more new players.
I believe they got a new box last year and moved to Kansas instead of Dallas (could be wrong), but as you said, they are adamant about not changing it :-\Make NA1 fastest speed

Why don't you make seperate thread for the updates?
Fair enoughWhy don't you make seperate thread for the updates?
No need.
The updates stay in the OP.
Its simple.
DDos 63e Siege and Bots Survival, and NA1 will be relevant again.
So I've been playing on NA1 frequently since 2012 and it's honestly one of my favorite servers on this game, so it really hurts to see it struggle to maintain a strong player base. I have some suggestions, though I'm sure some of them are unattainable or silly, but whatever. First I'd like to explain some of the issues I've seen others have with NA1, as well as some issues I've had with it as well.
1. The rounds take forever (when 200 people are on).
A lot of us who are members of a regiment and go to line battles frequently might be used to it, but it doesn't make it any less frustrating. Often times if I'm lucky enough to have a reg member play on NA1 they leave rather quickly cause they "hate NA1" usually this is because they got shot by some pub named Vasily Zaytsev across the map and now they have to sit in spec for however long it takes for one team to kill the guy hiding in the bush.
2. The Admins are "too strict"
I understand that there are rules that have been in place since the server was still US1, and this has been argued since Mack was a young boy during Prohibition, but I think there could be some wiggle room in terms of the enforcement of some rules on the server. For instance, I've talked to a lot of the admins of NA1 over the years and I'm friends with a lot and they've told me that they enforce rules differently than others. Not that they choose not to enforce the rules, just different punishments. One admin might slay and kick for a slur, while another will perm ban with no warning. One might just slay for teamwounding every round, while another will temp ban.
3. The maps suck (some of them)
The rotation is nice, as long as you get good maps in it. For every French Farm (http://thepetwiki.com/images/thumb/Happy_Cat.jpg/400px-Happy_Cat.jpg), there is Dust2 (http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2014/04/11/article-2602528-1D06B2D200000578-424_634x471.jpg). Some of the maps are good for a small amount of people, some are only good when there is 150+,
Not too sure how to fix it since it's pretty subjective, but I thought I'd put it down anyway.
4. Speaking of admins, where are the admins?
Now this might just be me because I go on NA1 at off times generally, but it often seems the case that when I go pubbin' with the homie Mack, he's the only admin that hops on anymore. I don't know if this is just bad luck on our part, or if the other admins are inactive, but I think the biggest way to keep NA1 populated is just by having admins there.
5. The melee speed istoo slow!just right.
Look here tryhards, if you can't beat a pub on medium speed, maybe you should head on over to the kiddy pool (NA GFing) where they'll dress you up with a helmet and knee pads so you don't hurt yourself when someone accidentally chambers you. The server has been on medium speed forever, and I don't really see the point of changing it. Now if you wanted to talk about getting rid of cav, we have something to work with. ^.^
6. ADMIN! THAT GUY SPAMMING ABOUT HIS MY LITTLE PONY REG IS STEALING ALL MY RECRUITS!
Now this issue is dear to my heart. Having only one message per regiment per map for recruiting is like saying you can only hire one of the guys standing in front of the Home Depot and you can't even check to see if they smell funny or not. (http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y26/MiyanoShiho/IMG_0258_zpsx66yjh2f.jpg) But I digress, the one message per map rule kind of forces regiments to go in the wrong direction of recuiting: mass appeal recruiting messages as if you were trying to call them out on twitter.
Seriously, it's this bullshit: Are you looking for a FUN and MATURE regiment to teach you about the drastic changes going on in your body? Look no further than the63e3eVolt71st! MUST BE 27 YEARS OLD WITH A MORTGAGE, FAMILY AND AT LEAST TWO DIFFERENT KINDS OF DOGS!
Not the most effective way of bolstering your ranks. By far the most effective way of recruiting is by personally appealing to someone in the chat, but it can kind of be like playing Russia Roulette where you hope you have someone who is actually looking for a reg, and not someone who has PTSD from the one event they went to with Fireboy in it.
So how do we fix it without turning NA1 into a giant pool ofpissBud Light? Admin discretion would be nice. When admins aren't on, the messages get spammed anyway, but when the admins are on, (generally when there is a fuck ton of people on NA1) I think it'd be nice if the admins would let people recruit as long as it doesn't become overly ridiculous.
I don't think the whole "no recruiting" thing will work for a game like NW
@Gokiller
From what I understood, that is a conquest event, the idea is great tho.
Later today, I will post some of my ideas in this thread.
@Gokiller

Great idea, has been tried numerous times in NA can confirm been here 4+ years.... The reason it doesn't work is too many regiments pullout, disband, or lose interest would be interested if something organized comes up.
Great idea, has been tried numerous times in NA can confirm been here 4+ years.... The reason it doesn't work is too many regiments pullout, disband, or lose interest would be interested if something organized comes up.Yeah, I've only seen one campaign 'succeed' -> being properly played and that was 5 years ago in MM. It's a good point that one of the reasons of others failure is because of the regiments. But I've seen also plenty of attempts that failed because the organisers simply jumped off the boat.
Money prize for winners, entry fees to participate, if you back out, disband, whatever, you lose your moneyDoesn't really work well with a community of which the majority isn't an adult. Even though it has not been attempted before so far I know, I guess it's a pretty accurate guess that it simply won't work.
Also because it could constituete (online) gambling, so we can't allow it on this for-all-ages-forum.Ah legal shit, just throwin out ideas ;D
I think I explained my idea to some people a little bit ago but here it is:+1
So you have a campaign that has five stages; Let's call these 1,2,3,4,5.
Let's call the teams A and B
The campaign starts at 3 which is something like a conquest map.
Then depending on which side wins, the campaign moves to either 2(A) or 4(B) which is a regular linebattle.
Let's say that the A has won.
Then depending on which team wins, the campaign either moves back to the conquest stage(3) if B wins or advances onto the siege phase(1) if A wins.
Then if A attacks the castle(1) and wins a best of 3? they win the campaign. However if they lose, then if returns back to the linebattle(2).
