An Elitist's View on Crashing

[Youmu]

I disagree. More severs, unless its something like double, would be far less practical. More people spread out=slower spawns=bad. As well, more people will be bossing, so prices drop. As well, people can last longer, and more people boss, as some either hate crashing, or can't crash. All in all, its not practical.

Perhaps make the spawn time the same everywhere, regardless of how many people there are in the world?

 

This is assuming everything spawns at the rate if 2k people are in the world (max efficiency of spawns).

 

Should help crashing a bit, along with extra servers.

My point is you don't always want 2k pop. I need around a 1.3-1.5k pop world for maximum effectiveness when 2.5brid, etc.

But wouldn't it be better if your 1.3-1.5k world (as well as any population) has the same spawn times as a 2k world? You get more kills in a set amount of time.

 

That's what I'm implying.

Do you know what 2.5 bridding is, and why they need 1.3-1.5k pop worlds?

Is it if you're on a 2k world, the DKs would spawn too fast and you'll die? lol.

Not only that, but the kill order and kill rate are very strongly determined by who you get to kill and when.

But you are f2p, so you could be horribly wrong and just blowing smoke. And in this case, you are. Talking about what you know- that's the key.

[Youmu]

OHHH I see why. I was talking about the "in theory" sense.

 

In that case I'm wrong, sorry :P didn't know they spawned so fast lol.

 

In that case, for DKS make it so the respawn timer only starts when all 3 are killed. Same applies for all "multi-NPC" bosses. This keeps the 2k pop spawn time.

In that case, for DKS make it so they spawn at the rate of 1.3k-1.5k population. Make everything else 2k (max effectiveness).

 

That wouldn't be good either.

 

See in members, especially with DK's, there is not one method to doing things. In the example for DK's 2.5'ing is a different method of killing them per hour that allows low level teams or solo players to get more kills per hour. However large teams need the 2k spawn rate to get more kills per hour. So making the world 1 population would change alot of things and destory current methods of killing bosses for some players, especially solo'ers.

 

Another example would be players only getting 1-2 mini kills instead of 3 at solo bandos at world 2 pop. It's not alot but it really adds up, so not the best idea to make world's static.

Ahh, I see. Forget all my previous posts above then.

 

But for skilling, all tree/ore/etc respawn rates should be the same as a 2k pop world. Makes things so much better.

Or increase the speed by a factor for all worlds. Something like, what is now ~1000 pop remains the same, 1500 pop goes up, 2k pop goes up a lot, 500 and 0 pop go down (or stay the same). Just saying that making it static is not neccesary for some things, like three iron rocks. You just want more high respawn spots, not neccesarily 2k pop spawns.
