Quarterly clean-up

I suggest you filter out and delete all inactive players every 3 months and grow and shrink the map depending on the server population. This would make for a more active map and active server. Everybody wins here:

Game creators win because they save money on servers. They could merge servers after filtering out all the inactive players, effectively cutting server numbers down to 1/4-1/10 as many servers.

Players win because they get a more intense gameplay. I am surrounded by hundreds of inactive players, and yes it's nice to be able to farm them all but it is quite boring. I got attacked for the first time yesterday in 3 months. My lvl 10 towers are hungry for pixelated blood.

You could even host the PvP competition during these quarterly cleanups. If you have to shut the servers down for a week... Everybody could then have enough freetime to actively participate in the pvp collisions. Spread 3 months apart this won't ruin the market economy either.

I like the idea... except for the PVP... The pvp servers already crash with only like 1/8th of the top 1500 players on each server. If everyone goes onto 1 server... well lets just say the explosion will be on the news lol. They could just delete all the dead accounts automatically after 3 months. However I think this is what they're doing already.

I completely agree and have said something about it before. The game was really fun, but lately it just seems to be getting dull sadly. Too much sitting around and farming, hardly any action packed PvP which is what I joined the game for originally.

There are so many level 1s next to my city that have been there for the past 4 months. What I suggest is that they remove all players that are level 0-3 (or even 0-6 since that is only a week of gameplay) once they become inactive for a certain amount of time. This keeps the servers clear of in-actives and leaves room for more people to join the game and start on older servers so that there is actually some people to battle with.

I've seen at least 4 friends quit in the past month who were all lvl 13-15 and big time spenders but just got too bored with the game. I hate to see them go and now more friends are talking about quitting. I hope they do something to make it more interesting soon...

Thanks,

Or when you log on they could just log you into a backup server..

Something we allla gree on is that the Pvp servers should be more powerful and be able to cope with the number entering are we all agreed on theat at least?
