Hi guys, i'm a new player.
I've been recomended this server to start a new char. I wanted to ask few qestions to you guys.

1 - How is the population of the server doing? Is it healthy or empty?
2 - How are prices of items and Gold? Are they ok or too high for a beginner?
3 - Is this server friendly (community, prices, gameplay, etc) towards new players?

Of course i know answers are not the absolute truth, but i wanted to make an idea before choosing the server that fits me the most.

I'm waiting many answers guys!

    1.) I think it's overloaded- reason being is because, I think is a) it being one of oldest servers and b) because I think when you first install PW, the default server is HT, I -think-.

    2.) Gold prices suck, but expect that in any server because of Cash Shop stuff, like when Packs get released...on HT, it's about ~400k gold, more or less (Haven't checked exact current, but it's been floating around that amount for a very long time now.). I say it's too high.

    3.) It depends, about the community. There are LOTS of really nice people out there, and there are annoying ones (you'll easily find them on World Chat =_=), and there are a few complete jerks. .-. And I'm too lazy to go into detail about other stuff.

    1. Its healthy I suppose, alot of players here I say.
    2. Gold is 400K+, not good for a beginning player.
    3.Its friendly, alot of drama, QQ, flames for TW though. :P

    According to several HTers that moved to other servers, HT is apparently the most exciting server. This can be taken into either a positive or negative context.

    You can't semi-retire your BM, 4 levels and 4.75 billion coins away from your warsoul.

    Such things require dedication.

    That's a pity, this server looks the best of all, but it has a high ping for me (around 240 ms) and i lag a bit when playing.

    RT instead has about 100 ms less than HT, so it's better for me :(

    because RT is way less populated.

    This server doesn't look empty to me think it will take time before it gets a stable playerbase, as it is only around 6 months since it has been opened.

    b:surrender I doubt that prediction the infamous enrage ADHD says that you will never wipe tao off considering you have tried what? 4 times now? With like we are going to kill them and get them off the server fervor every time and never have you done it. So I wonder about that statement.

    We are Borg. Resistance is futile. b:sin

    BTW, urban made a right choice by giving away the second land yesterday:

    1. Upper right corner of the map is where factions go to die. Evolution and Caesar died there. Demise of Triad and Assault started with taking Misfortune (surprised?). Getting out of there one week earlier +1

    2. Getting choice of attacking Tao or TheEmpire. +10

    3. Not getting Evo-green color b:spit when they get a land. Priceless

    That remains to be seen. Our original plan was to wipe Tao first and ignore Radiance but since TWs against Tao became pitiful we changed our minds and split Tao and Rad apart, then proceeded to nom nom Rad off the map. So yes, we COULD HAVE done it, but we CHOSE not to...yet. As for the future, we aren't making long-term goals anymore but whether Enrage will last long enough to wipe the purple smear off the map too, we'll see.

    Um thats exactly what I said............... Enrage does that all the time. >< Everyone knows you could have but the fact remains you keep trying so but getting "bored" and quitting the effort.

    wots the point of attacking a faction that doesnt show? might as well change plans "doesnt mean we failed at it", means we perfer to attack a faction worth our time, but now wot is goin to happen?

    1. well crowded
    2. gold's expensive. period.
    3. i say your interaction with people purely depends on your own unadultered luck. you could be one of the lucky that stumbles upon the wonderfully nice and helpful people on HT, or one of the unlucky that finds themselves in the middle of a mass of idiots and meanies. b:surrender
