a few suggestions to greatly improve the game

129937 I would first start by looking at all other pokemon MMOs out there, then find out their server sizes, and how long they've been out.

 

Some have less than 500 server capacity, and have been out for 6+ years.

 

We have been out in beta for 7 months. 7 months and we have already upgraded our original server 3 times, bought a new webserver, bought a second server to deal with the influx.

 

We have 3600 capacity across 2 servers. for a fan made MMO, that is a huge number.

 

We aren't a specialised company, we are hobbyists doing this in our spare time. If you don't like it, find something else to play.

Also the AFK timers are there so that server space hogging isn't a thing. The queues would be a lot worse if ther wasn't an AFK timer.

 

Yeah, I'm surprised that it took an admin to say that.

 

It's pretty obvious why there is a queue and an afk timer.

 

OP said there is no excuse, but the reason ('excuse') is because if there isn't then the queue timers would be even more enormous.

 

Also, you cannot compare games that are as different as the ones you have mentioned.

 

I mean, you can, but it won't be that accurate at all. Like the admin said, it would be more reasonable to compare this game to other Pokemon MMO's, but in my experience PRO does a decent job, definitely in the upper percentage.

No idea how you say that server stability isn't priority to us, when in all the 7 months the game has gone live, we kept on increasing our server slots from 400 to 1800 on both servers.

 

We only have one programmer as our DEV and he has life where he works and still gives time to this project which we made only for fun and not to make a company like you are treating us.

 

If you think we aren't devoting enough time for server stability then just find us a programmer who will work for free and stick with us for long time.

 

Lastly about AFK system, we made it so people won't just stay ingame while doing nothing and increase their playtime since many quests and bosses (now and upcoming) require game time. What you are thinking of the AFK system is totally wrong.
