Is there anything YOU can do to improve online numbers?

Yep, a big YES.

GET ONLINE AND STOP COMPLAINING.

Seriously, we've all tried topics and what nots to get the attention of ND to fix Jumpgate... but we're not getting much of it. IMO, with Jumpgate Evolution advancing as it is... I dont think we'll get any.

So, its up to us to do something about it, and the only way I know people will come to play is... if YOU are online.

We have famous and infamous names being glorified on separate threads, well, those people have to get back online, and that should improve numbers. People enjoy being around them or fighting them, but if they arent online... if their squads arent online... then there's no point on getting online.

As I've said many times, put your money where your mouth is. GET ONLINE.

At least, there will be a variety of targets for everyone and instead of a Sim FFA you might get a RS war for a change. Stop making badass multifactional PvP squads... its more fun if there's pilots to fight on each faction...

Seriously.. get online. (It works for us).

Re: Is there anything YOU can do to improve online numbers?

I'm having time issues with rl commitments atm but will endeavour to be on lots more after the month of May has been and gone. Between now and then it shall be only "as and when" for me. I do think more positive posting on the jossh forums of space events, what people got up to the night before, battle stories and personal survival accounts etc whilst toning down some of the whining and argumentative posts would make a big impact on space numbers.

Seriously, if you had a good time in Jumpgate the night before, post about it, let others read and know so they can become involved too for the next night... and so on.

Theres plenty of life in the old bird yet. Lets have some non bleating posts on jossh and see what happens to numbers. That means none of the "meh you killed me and I gonna kill you back x100000" posts as I think that is a given and just part of the game, it doesn't need spelling out after every kill. If you get killed take it on the chin, if you get the kill dont brag. Simple rules.

So less whining and more winning is good for the game all round I think.

Re: Is there anything YOU can do to improve online numbers?

It's all very well and good to say these things but there are just too many cool new games out there to go back and spend time in a game that I spent too much time in to begin with. When Jumpgate Evolution comes out then there won't be time to play all the other cool games. And if Jumpgate Evolution sucks then I won't have a lot of catching up to do with what else is out there. I'm a gamer, I play games.

Re: Is there anything YOU can do to improve online numbers?

Have to say a lot of my gaming time at the moment is spent on a few new games, even if my CC company hadn’t shafted me and 1000’s of others I still don’t think I would be in Jumpgate more than once or twice a week if that.

Love the game with out question, just been there done that and got bored with all the crap.

Re: Is there anything YOU can do to improve online numbers?

Today there was a big ammount of MT pilots on all 3 factions, before I got in there were 58 pilots online on a monday... I was so surprised and happy. As per reports of one of my pilots, we were 14% of the server

We also reached teh 22 pilot number on our roster, which is very cool.
