Hello, dear players!
Recently, we opened a topic asking you to share your ideas for the development of the server:
You posted an enormous number of ideas, suggestions, criticism, and solution options.
We are sincerely grateful to each of you. Many of your messages truly helped us look at the situation differently — you literally opened our eyes to some things.
We have analyzed absolutely everything. All the suggestions have been structured and grouped.
Several important points
There are ideas that are technically impossible to implement, no matter how much we would like to.
There are ideas that can both help the server and harm it — decisions regarding them will be made carefully.
There are suggestions that are clearly beneficial and are already in progress.
We decided to move gradually, step by step.
Therefore, there is no and will not be a large list of “what exactly will be done”.
Many things require verification, testing, and evaluation of feasibility.
We are starting with what we can definitely implement and what will bring the most benefit.
Important information about suggestions
The suggestion topic is closed, and new suggestions are not being considered at the moment.
The reason is simple:
We have already collected a huge amount of material that must be processed, verified, and at least partially implemented.
Opening a new flow of messages right now would be pointless.
However, you can always leave your suggestions in a separate topic in the appropriate forum section or in Discord in the new “Discussion” channel.
What we have decided so far
1. Radical changes are not planned for now
Switching to other versions of Aion and any drastic changes are not being considered at this time.
The community spoke out against drastic changes.
The server was originally intended to remain 4.6 permanently.
2. Glory Points reset
Players supported the idea of more frequent resets.
According to the voting results:
the majority — 4 times per year
some — prefer 2 times
We are not fixing a strict schedule.
We will monitor activity and the state of the ranking.
This may be 3 or 4 resets per year — depending on the situation.
3. Siege changes
Currently in progress:
dredgeon adjustments
automatic fortress reset (capture by Balaurs)
countering the fast sieges (when players only do a kill or two and leave the siege)
changes in the x-form transformations
4. Work on the website and accounts
Ongoing work includes:
website improvements
fixing long-standing problems
strengthening account security
5. Anti-cheat and monitoring
We are improving the log analysis system and identifying suspicious players.
There are already new results — and this direction will only continue to strengthen.
Tournaments and events
Based on your suggestions, we decided to organiza a tournament.
At first — a solo format for testing.
If everything goes well, tournaments will be held on a more regular basis.
Small periodic events are also possible.
Follow upcoming announcements in the news section.
Online and advertising
We understand that for a comfortable game, a stable number of active players is important.
Therefore, in parallel with technical work, we are increasing our advertising activity.
Advertising for the server has never stopped, but now it will work in a more intensive mode to ensure a steady influx of new players.
Your contribution is truly important
I personally read every message.
As a result, a document of 11 pages has been compiled, containing all the main problems and your suggestions.
This is our working foundation that we will follow going forward.
The work has already begun.
All changes will be announced separately in the news.
Thank you for staying with us, even when things are not perfect.
We see your support and appreciate it.
We will do everything to make you want to stay here further!
