Can't remember when we last time had this many people playing PR at the same time..... woooohhhh!!!

You dev's must be doing something right :D

Here is what I imagine is going on on any random server explained with Smileys.

1169 :shocked:


The server monopoly is now lifted..... its time to "chose" your server, which means the quality will probably go up on some servers.

It's a feat if it's still 1000 players on in a month.

We need more proper server hosters with admin teams ;) I'm sure there are more players, just not enough decent servers.

Still neat though!

Servers are full of newbies, we need do something to help them!

Good Squads leaders!

You know who you are, show the newbies how this is played.

I like helping noobs. They are often much nicer to play with than the "why are we not doing this instead" guy.

I guess it is soon time for another noob training event. You listening Wicca? :D

You don't need a training event. Just sponsor a few noobs by leading a squad, hand out a few tips that aren't in the manual, plan attacks, build fobs/assets to show off how cool PR is and why we all love it! Hopefully then we will still have 1000 + players still playing after 3 months

That's also true but if you really wanna learn how to use a lot of things you need to be able to spawn them in and fire a lot of random shots.
Using a local server only helps yourself and your friends.

Thats because it takes a certain degree of intelligence to get PR to run and then play it. As a consequence most players are not avaiable 24/7 due to jobs and having figured out how to access girls.

~2000 was max somewhere around 0.8, 0.85, or even 0.9 AFAIK.

anyways its quality not quantity that counts. lets hope we get some good players.

Rather have a game with 40 good players than 200 bad ones.

Give it a month, and see what happens, continue to put up great servers with good admins. And we will draw more attention to PR. Whats even more important though is that us veteran PR players are there to help beginners get into the game so they can spread the word. Clans sure have good odds of recruiting now as well, its a matter of just getting back to work! :)

But yea, give beginners a great game, teach them and guide them through the rounds. If a beginner has a great game he will tell his friends.. Now imagine PR with twice as many players as what we got now... 2000, thats 20 full servers! :D
