How about some events here?

[diamond1]

Maybe. but i think even 1 event per week isnt enough am i right?

I think its more than enough. People shouldn't just log for events

+1

Then think again. Its official statistic and any gameserver admin MUST know that any player who play any game more than 6 months and less then a 2 logs in MORE OFTEN (average 1.5x) EXACLY to join some kind of event. Numbers may vary from game to game depending on time needed to achieve maximum character/account condition as 100% for first number and 20% for second, but the axiom works the same way for any game. And 2 things u need to do:

1). Create event interesting for beginners to make them feel comfortable and give them ILLUSION of faster progressing
2). Repeat this for top players to hold them after they reach everything possible in game

and HERE before 4,84 was flyin 200 players every night for 1 reason - CHANGES that was interesting, global and frequent. Now here are no interesting changes last years. i was here last time 1 or 2 years ago and when i re-join week ago i see almost the same game i leaved and now online never reachs 100 So i think someone must do someshing or disco will die as many popular mods. Guys 200 000 players a day playn Diablo 2 created in 1995! And reason is the same - changes 12 y.o. kid knows nothing about balance and game engine. He needs just more guns, more cool shaped ships, atd one thing he needs is "MORE!". Give him MORE and ur server will shine like a star until the end of the times

This has been repeated many times, but there is only so much you can do with an old engine from microsoft. Diablo is not a roleplay-heavy server so the game has to maintain balance for the interactions it withholds in them. disco Freelancer was made by fewer people. whereas diablo was made by blizzard so of course it's going to gain far more attention. and besides, that kind of game genre is more popular.

The developers here have a life of their own and with the small ammount there is, they can't be working 24/7 to sufficiently meet everyones needs. only the primary objective.

One last thing: As i said previously, you need to learn how the community works. The makers of these events have to also sort out any bombardment of complaints that come along their way to make the right event, Which is far different to diablo. Discovery freelancer does not revolve around events entirely. it's the interactions outside of them that primarily makes up for it. If you see these trade events, almost all the people involved in them just fly around trying to avoid interactions, Which is not the prime objective for this particular modification.
