Oh sure some people play only 1 realm. I only play in Midgard for instance, but those people are not the bulk of the population I expect.


Sigh

I only play hib, so there's at least 2 of us.



Make that 3...I'm a die hard hib

no.. That's what happens when you cluster the lazy way like you did.

way to think long term..

Yes, this problem is 100% Camelot Vault's fault. Er, wait a minute...

Someone doesn't realize that Camelot Vault is a part of IGN...not EA Mythic. We just write about the game, and hope someone pays attention to what we write.

Plenty of realistic ideas in here; to reiterate what most are saying I'd like a 24hr timer with added bonuses for players not changing realms.

Something I started awhile back for reference, I've since changed my thinking

http://vnboards.ign.com/daoc_general_board/b5176/112609340/r112620488/

I think the Realm timer should be 30 min to 1 hour, so maybe an xrealmer will think twice before jumping ship to join the enemy side.

To those that disagree because of server merges should learn to adapt. This game was never meant to be open to all realms period!

Increasing the timer is the only option in my opinion at this point. Don't need anymore bonuses, game is already on the easy button. I think anyone who disagrees with a timer increase are exactly the cause of the problem to begin with = xrealmer!

remove realm timer alltogether.

I want to play where my friends are, and not being forced to do something i don't want to.

With clustering YOU caused my (the players) different toons to be on the same server, so we are not to blame now and punished with timers. We pay for all the servers/toons, so we have a right to play whatever we want. when creating the tons, we did so on different servers.

Relic hoppers are just a minority problem, most people i know either stay one realm mostly, no matter what, or log onto the realm NOT owning relics, so they don't have the coma-zerg on their side, but can fight against it.

A timer is not the solution.


Solution would be new frontier zone where a captured keep has an effect and is not just an easy-rp-porter, have sent you a large and very detailled sheme for it some time ago.

Something like real front-lines, where only the keeps at the front can be attacked.
1 Frontierzone, not 3 different divided by going with the boat.
Only 1-way porters, if you capture a keep you own the ground, so you increase your realm-size and get benefits.
With the 3-realms there will always be some balance, since the strongest (and therefore biggest) realm has to deal with 2 enemies, attacking from 2 sides.
This would result in people playing for their realm and not just for their rp.
