  • how much longer will SDE keep kaiser server going?

200% boost exp event did't change situation in Kaiser. This is how it looks now in kaiser:

And this is how's Nebraska going same date and time

sSo dear SDE, mods, official and anybody else in power to be a man and make a decision:

SHOT DOWN KAISER, TRANSFER ALL ACTIVE ACCOUNTS TO NEBRASKA AND ALLOW DYING KAISER POPULATION TO PLAY IN NORMAL TERMS!!!

I play NF for a few years, I do have a lot of patiience, but when I talk to my friends from Kaiser, who are able to play 10-15 games per hour, while I cannot play more than 6 (7-10 minutes waiting for each battle) I get pissed.

I do not understand, why SDE keeps paying for server which brings only problems while they could extend nebraska to hold 2 or 3 times bigger traffic? For me there's no logic in decisions made by SDE.

Please, start thinking about it before 99% of Kaiser players quit NF due to this horror.

If they truely needed a merge they would have done it already, plain and simple. When they stop making a profit or notice a large drop in sub/user activity they will then make changes and throw a band-aid on the problem. I'm glad I quit and wasnt playing when we went from 2 servers to 3 to 4 to 2 again... Can't imagine that mess.

If They STped playing there and just play in nebraska i bet they would, but hey if u like to wait 10 20 minutes to play a game u are paying thats fine , its your time and your money.....

the main gripe people have about *** is the Match Maker...

Well, I agree with the comments made about the server merging. Something has to be done. I played the event and it started well, but died in the ending where we were back to getting 3 games (if lucky) per hour. I have played this game for over the last 6 years and like most from the kaiser, have now started play WOT until something is done. I am not going to start from scratch and begin the grind from the start. A few years ago the servers were merged and it worked for a time. 

The comment about if the merged servers and all the players come back, the server can't handle it... I doubt that all the players will come back...Not even for 300% exp or converts.. So many are over it and the GOD like attitude of some of the MODs has also chased players from this game, which is one of the reason I found leaving NF very easy to do... Just my opinion...

IMO they should keep both servers but try to encourage the growth of Kaiser ahead of Nebby.

To do this they could close new admission to Nebby, or simply change the home screen to encourage new players to join Kaiser (like a recomended server for new players statement)

They could have a significant increased XP event for Kaiser ONLY along with free drops and a one off free transfer for players moving from Nebby to Kaiser (but not the other way around) and a paid transfer facility open to all players moving in both directions. This way it might encourage some Nebby players to move to Kaiser for a "Holiday" to take advantage of the free drops/increased XP and move back when they wish.

- This would hopefully encourage some players to move for a limited time (and perhaps some might like it and stay) or make new crews on Kaiser to take advantage of the drops.... which could then be used on Nebby if they wish.

In hindsight what they could have tried was to release the Italian navy on Kaiser ONLY for the first 3/6 months with the idea being that returning players might move to Kaiser to try the new nation.

Anyhow no doubt they will just ignore anything said but theres a few ideas.

 

Yes, I like the idea of a crew transfer (make sure it includes the BO) would be a positive move. As looking from a players point of view, its very demoralising to start a new crew on another server. That is why I personally have not started a Nebraska based crew  (in my case) and enjoy the bigger crowd. However, if I had a ready made crew which I have ground previously and have it transferred (as I may have another crew on my current server for example), this would encourage players like me to grind on another server (as now the player would have a good crew to grind from or power level from AND NOT START FROM SCRATCH).

 

Or just have the option to transfer the BO (1 free transfer, subsequent transfer paid service), and have him purchase or transfer a crew (via prem trade if it returns). This can be made either direction or in only one direction (e.g Nebby to Keiser) or free in direction, paid in the other direction.

 

From a commercial point of view it would be great for NF, as now that account would likely spend more on consumables for  both servers now.

 

This is a win win for all I think.

I wonder how many people like you were lurking.

Does Kaiser ever think?

All I hear from y'all when I head on your servers is whine whine whine whine whine whine whine whine whine whine whine whine whine. It gets annoying.

Those of you that say Nebby is in pristine condition....are you mad? Seriously, Nebby is NOWHERE NEAR what MO and AZ were back in their prime.

If Kaiser players really want to keep their server, and I'm assuming most of you do. Get your fleetmates back on, start playing more and less whining. 



As a player who came back (after maybe 6-12 months of recess), I have tried starting a few blitz when there are only 2-3 GB's going on. The room times out several times without any substantial number of people entering/exiting the room. In the end, we all just go the GB.

There's no one on this server, and I'm not interested in ditching my good crew for my crappy crew. They need a server merge - then advertise everyone's on the same server. * does it (though it is $15/month). Why can't Navy Field?

Heck, change it to a server room and allow dedicated servers with that Perpetual Battle idea made a few years ago by someone (150+ rec's?). Then NF doesn't really need anything except a master server browser. Incorporate a match-maker ability, too.

The point is you can run GBs, blitzes, or even Normal Rooms flawlessly in Nebraska.

In Kaiser you have a minimum of 6-minutes to wait.

 

It doesn't require common sense to debunk your point, actually. Because even the most dimwitted person in NF could figure out that he ain't gonna level and play properly in Kaiser.
