Dear Admin, i have an alternative idea and some thoughts for you. I'm also urging other people to speak up, make suggestions, write articles and contribute to our common goal.
So you want new players to this game and think that resetting all the servers to zero point will be enough of an attraction for it to happen? I don't think so. Baby-booms didn't work, resetting Suna benefited the server by a very little, nearly not equally to the work your team put into it. In fact everything you've done after implementing buy gold to gain citizens for this server has failed. There is no reason why going as far as resetting Primera and Secura would have any better results, especially after it didn't in Suna.
After buy gold many of us have been telling you that the reason people are leaving soon after joining is the lack of communication between you and us. You have made no comments on this so far, which only proves our very point. However, if you still don't then please try to imagine that this in fact IS the main issue and we're not just looking for a blame excuse. Imagine that to realize that no baby-boom and reset is gonna make anything better as long as the players haven't gained your trust. It hasn't and it won't.
I think the fact that you gave us 3 weeks notice on the reset and are not deleting our articles does mean that you are willing to talk. However, the fact that you ignored asking our opinion on the matter in the style of "ask-me-about-anything-but-THIS" sends us the message that you have given up about your own game and your (so far) loyal players. This is what all the protests are about.
My suggestion is:
I get that you want new players to be able to start from the scratch and be equal to everyone. But they already are - in SUNA. So why not make Suna a server that is reset once a year? People would register on Suna on that very purpose - they know that the server is gonna be reset after a while of their playing. If you do it on Primera and Secura as well then all you're gonna achieve is that people can't trust anything about this game - what is the point of countries fighting each other, making new alliances etc. if it can all be taken away just like that? There is no.
If you reset and some % of the population will give up about this game, you will gain a bunch of players still playing this game but not trusting it, only 2-clicking and concentrating on the business side, telling new players to do the same. What more, there will still be 3 servers with elite players that have played since day 1 and gained riches since day 1. Players will be just as unequal to each other as they are now, there will just be less of them.
In my view and personal opinion the only reason why Suna didn't utterly fail (meaning losing citizens it had in the first place) is that Suna already was new. There wasn't THAT much to be "reset" in the first place. Meanwhile in Primera you have 3 years of great game history and citizens that have invested a great lot in their accounts. In Suna there wasn't nearly as many people complaining and quitting as there are and will be here. And yet it wasn't a major success there either - compared to the unstability it brought to the server and of course your own efforts to make it work i'd say it was a failure.
Think about it, Admin - is it worth your efforts to destroy a game while you could easily do the exact opposite and build it into a better one (again, the equip update and all except the reset in your last article were great). Make Suna into your reset-server and leave Primera alone. Please consider our input.
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth.
Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit
different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be
efficiently
managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation.
Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the
game.
Work for the good of your country and
see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules.
First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you
will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress
as a fighter.
You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which
are owned by the state.
After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your
own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock
company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
"E-Sim is one of the most unique browser games out there"
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics
in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes.
From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability
to run for the head of the party you're in.
You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws
proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself.
Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you.
You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential
elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state
(for example, who to declare war on).
Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have
a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military.
In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control
over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials.
For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have
to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on
their territory.
You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life
as a pacifist
who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling
products).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
E-Sim is a unique browser game.
It's creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present
in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth
according to their own.
So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
