I'm going to have a last blow out on the boards before I go, as well as doing a few other things to hopefully shake things up for the better when I'm gone, so lets see ...... where do I possibly start in this quagmire that has stolen the identity of our beloved BloodWars.
Because lets face it, this is not the game most of us started playing, hell .... the way it's going it's hardly a game at all now .... just another good game that has slipped onto the oiled slope of doom.
DISCLAIMER - The following thread is aimed at the general development and admin team with notable exceptions (Szeszej and C47 ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE DEV/ADMIN TEAM FOR THE PURPOSES OF THIS THREAD)
And why has this come about?
Because the Development team are too busy with their pet Polish servers to concern themselves with the UK (and I would assume French) servers in anything but a patronising afterthought sort of way, in fact the sort of way that an ignorant parent looks upon a child with Autism or Downs Syndrome .... maybe not a nice analogy but the way I see it perfectly apt.
It's high time these people found out what sort of players they have in Underworld, and the contribution they could make to the general game of BloodWars (wherever thats gone) if they managed to be heard, which due to the ignorance of the devs has not happened yet.
What happens from here?
Well, there are a few options open to the players of the Underworld game .....
1: Wait and hope the Devs come and take a rare look at the forum and see the problems the same way the players do, have a sudden brainstorm and fix the game (you ever heard the words 'Once upon a time ...'? )
2: Someone suggested going on strike ....... Set vacation mode as a huge group and bog the game down (they probably wouldn't notice until they were told about it)
3: Message your clan, your friends and anyone around you to get them onto the forums and create the biggest complaint thread ever seen on BW (surely they'd have to take notice of that) and Polish speaking players can post it right under the devs noses on the Polish forums too (even better, link them in so that they end up here)
4: Stop buying premium (cash flow almost certainly will get their attention)
5: Mass exodus ...... While this won't do anything to make the game better for the ones who leave, it will certainly make them think twice about saying 'Well it works on the Polish servers, so it will work here'.
More later

Count me in!
Patch 1.1 takes way too long.
One-handed guns are useless in expeditions.
I've only seen snipers (people with sniper tattoo) to complete Wolfish King task.
Requirements of Hospital are ridiculous.
Expedition Mobs use multiple special attacks per round.
Nobody listens to what people on forum say.

Im still relatively new to this game and am enjoying it thus far. However, i am finding some of the building requirements etc impossible. Also, if the dev team arent paying attention then i know from past games that it makes playing the game a monotonous and tedious experience. I pray they sort something out before i hit that phase.

i reckon we should all stop buying premium and go on strike like gendibal sed
at first its good but then it gets pretty rubbish and its 2 hard 2 go up levels and stuff
stones r 2 rare and building requirments r 2 high
STOP BUYING PREMIUM GO ON STRIKE

been a member of the game now for well over a year, liked the idea straight away, but find it extremely difficult to keep paying premium if changes arent being made. i have been quiet for a while reading gendibal comments, diablos and etc. there needs something to be done, the patch looks good but when will it be implemented?? has it even ben tested on the polish server yet??
expedition mobs need to be modified to keep the lower levels happy and balance out the game, sometimes i cant even help against white dragons and im level 53.
all weapons need to have tattoos or what is the point in having weapons with zero effect, i.e. shuriken of vengence
shortage of blood in zone 3 and building requirements.
weapons levelling at 100? ridiculous.
having the the likes of zauborin leave, sycanide leave and now gendibal possibly leaving is a huge knock to the game and im afraid it will have a knock on effect. i dont want to see any other members leave.
something needs to be done or this game will die out

Surely something about the game balance has to be done!
Also the amount of active players is currently really low which will never change when big players are leaving and the dev team does not listen to the demands of the players.
Just one thing: i don't think the requirements for buildings are too high, it is just a matter of progress, i can remember seeing a police station lvl 10 and though no way of achieving it, now i have a lvl 12 police station, so it is possible.
As for Hospital i don't know what surgery lvl 7 needs but i guess something around 140 charisma 80 knowledge ?

To build Hospital u need surgery 8 lvl, not 7, requirements to build surgery 8 lvl is 165 charisma and 84 knowledge, so it isn't too easy.

The balance of this game is totally fucked and right now it's not a lot of fun. I for one won't be bothering buying premium again unless the legitimate concerns already raised here by other people are addressed.

Couldnt agree more mate ..... i wonder if the Devs can get their heads around the fact that Euros from non Polish countries are worth the same as ones from Poland .... the Requirements for buildings ... weapons etc are just too high .... and the Expos ... how often going for white Dragons have i run into Hydra's i have lost count ... and if you get a white the modifications done to them make them stupidly difficult ...
Unless they do something about the players concerns this game will die and any new patches will be just P****** on its grave

i agree with practice. all i basicly do now is run a caravan and then leave it on for ages
i rekon that it shouldnt cost premium to change ur name or delete tattos or nything like that . it should cost in game money or thats just really sad
do any polish players understand english
if so can u traslate gendibals first message and start a thread on a polish place

The main problem is that the "admin team" are also the main and only programmers of this game. Although they spend 16 hours a day working on BW, they barely have enough time to speak on polish board. Why should they keep in touch with foreign customers if they have a representative? Don't forget that they also have a private life (whole 8 hours). Imo any kind of boycotting won't turn attention on this board but it will only end up with closing the server.
Another reason of your system problems is that most of the problems were already discussed on polish board. Now, when a topic appears, it usually is closed by a moderator in few minutes.
There are exceptions. The "joining clan with is taking over a square is forbidden" rule came up from Elisabeth. Also the author of the new set of tattoo graphics was inspired here

thankyou gendibal for saying what i personally think.
i dont think buildings or weapon lvls are too high, i mean do you want it too easy, where is the challenge, aw baby want a bottle, put in the time and get the result!
for me the problem at the moment is the lack of blood, i think blood should be a bonus, ie you can use arcania, i dont think lack of blood should take your basic stats, i would happily fight without blood but cant because, it takes your hit points,
WHY SHOULD I LOSE HIT POINTS BECAUSE OF LACK OF BLOOD, did i not earn my buildings and weapons?
if things dont get better i might swap lgo for runes

Easy answer to the "Why should they pay attention to foreign customers" .... because we are customers ... implication we pay for a service .. Businesses listen to their customers or they go out of business ... simple law of Business

i have to agree msgs will be sent to everyone i know in this game. the players as a whole will stand together and the devs cant ignore that many ppl.are voices must be heard or mass vacation,no-more premium and a huuuuge complaints thread will folow unless action is takin to improve game.
