I think it's just less frustrating that way, at least for me. The loyalty of this community is exemplary, but one has to counterbalance it to preserve one's sanity. Checking every day for news, as I had done for over a year, is simply an exercise in masochism. Even the Grab Bags don't help much without an ETA. Meanwhile, Lethantis really deserves more attention. Obviously they aren't at a stage of perfection that Uthgard once possessed, but it isn't Genesis either. These people are dedicated, communicative and efficient. The speed of development is truly astounding. While you're waiting, give it a shot. The loyalty of this community is awesome, it'true ... what a shame! BTW thank you for the hint about Lethantis, I will have a look.

Or play against a group like that? I have. Absolute devastation. The group that runs up against them can't kill them fast enough because smite clerics have sooooooo many tools at their disposal combined with decent ranged damage with 8 of them dudes doing it!

Yeah right... We cant get 5 sentences out of him for a grab bag in a month and a half, you really think that Trishin or someone else going to sit there and type a summary of a revamp for us? Stop kidding yourself, man... Sarge - Healer Zulus - Berserker Alec / Aleck - Percival, Albion

Its a book about statistics etc. in that book he says "if you don't know the answer to something assume status quo" because if its been that way for such a long time, then chances are it will continue to be that way.. /cry

Or even better checking this site until I die and still seeing the same grab bag. Sad thing is I probably will be... Fangrol 8l4 Mercenary.

Cya there I am somewhat proud about myself that the urge to play daoc is not big enough anymore to log in to every oh-look-I-have-started-DOL-server genesis is already a pain and won't cease to be in foreseeable time. the infinitesimal progress they make on techside, they screw up with gm/mod douchebaggery extraordinaire. its the common problems we've seen so often about all shards, except uthgard. so what do you think? when will lethantis resemble a playable environment? 2021?

Austerim Alerion Knight Posts: 2743 Joined: Dec 15, 2010 16:27	by Austerim » Jul 18, 2015 18:18 Genesis was different at the start than 99% of freeshards. They brought in a ton of people and probably have turned a ton of people off of freeshards. Uthgard wasn't around to capitalize.
