The mod is dying :( help save it
« on: March 15, 2013, 12:02:20 pm »
I am very sad to say that the last week or so.. all i see is like one server up with 12 people

In the past there would be at least two servers one with like anythin between 25- 40 players (at busy times), the other with about 15 and then a couple of smaller servers..  not amazing but still what you would excpect for a relatively new mod.

For the numbers to go down so fast is unsettling and not good.

I think it comes down to first of all the mod size........

It must be very daunting if a/ you have a slow internet connection or a monthly download limit   or b/ you dont know much about the mod...   to want to invest the time to sit there and wait for a 800mb (approx) game to download.

secondly... we all as regular players to the mod know how exciting it is... but there is VERY little enthusiasm in terms of people adding cool screenshots of the mod to their signature.. or flashy banners...  or even a superb trailer with zulu music showing a typical server battle with 60 zulus charging on 15 guys.. (can easily be done) -- that kind of cool thing WILL draw in fans...

I think the fact that even on the larger servers.. admins (besides the major guy)  rarely show up...  is dis encouraging too.

This mod CAN be saved...   but we need to act now before its too late.

Actually yesterday AZW had about 20 people in...
Just go in at the right time and there will be players.

Just because their are few people in a Server that doesn't mean it's not dying...
Holy shit what a idea!!

I think this mod is great with 20ish people on a single server.

Umn,I don't think size of the mod is the problem:800mb nowdays should be a piece of cake.
And it doesn't mean the mod is dead when there are 5 ppl on the server...Somehow every time i went to play AZW server had 20+ players.

Just yesterday, I was on a server with thirty people on it. I think you're just logging on at bad times.

This mod is NOT dying.
If you really like this mod, I am sure the OP does, I advice not to start topics like this.

Better say: "This mod is a gem, lets get the word out to the community."  :)
