Hello, can you read? The number of people from the Reddit Invasion who stayed around after a few weeks was insignificant. That was the only big advertisement of the game in recent times.

ill repeat myself just so you can understand. The numbers before and after the reddit event, didnt change (the reddit invasion only gave us a boost over a few days then it was back to pre reddit numbers).

Alright, but why do you guys keep saying something like: look at the current amount of new players compared to C1, C2 doesnt suck!

(insert sarcasm throughout post)

becuase the fact that the sheear amount of players is greater by a mediocre number is a perfectly logical reason to switch from C1 with amazing artwork and details, fast performance, and a point to pvp to C2 with 3D graphics of a retired nintendo wii thats being sugar coated by all these mini quests and features and blah blah that end up always breaking and causing more problems.



^^^^ duh i mean why else wold we be i C2 now?

ill try to write it in an even simpler fashion then.

Advertising is pretty much the same for at least 8months before c2.

- 3months before C2, 389 accounts per month, 7 of those still play
- C2 beta, 825 new account, 10 of those still play
- C2 release,558 new account, 4 of those still play (the launch was pretty bumpy)
- 1 month after C2, 592 new accounts 27 of those still play
- 2 months after C2, 622 new accounts 27 of those still play
- 3 months after C2, 2084 new accounts, 36 of those still play (thats the redditvvasion)
- 4 months 1037 new accounts, 34 still play
- 5 months 620 new accounts, 34 still play.



Sooo. yea, as far as players flow is concerned, a little less than 5 times more players keep playing after trying the game on C2 than they did on C1.

now as far as C1 performance goes, thats not entirely true. Yes C1 worked a hell lot better on incredibly old (like.. the kind that shouldnt even work anymore) computers. But on more recent hardware it was another story, and was only a matter of time before it would plain simply stop working alltogether (or require an emulator to run).

So yea, if we were to recode a client, we would obviously do it with more recent technology :P.

Yes, the game was old but appealing.

The better way wouldve been to rewrite the code and leave the game to be unique, not like other games, 2d is old but 2d is fun when its used in a good fashion. I still think that the advertisment part was lacking in C1 due to C2 and that C2 looks prettier on first sight but C1 is just damn sharp and good.
