Could Salvation Make A Comeback?

Post by Balderdash »

It would be rather vanilla, some rate increases but minimal edits, etc. I'm trying to talk Fly into giving it a go but he doesnt think there are enough old school legits around to make it viable.

I'd be down, if the balance is as good as the previous server.

If the concept is convincing, then yes. For me it's important to have a good balance between donators and non-donators. Everything should be obtainable through ingame activities, donators just get things done faster.

Others than that, BA and useful dungeons are a must for me. I'd love to see PTBA more often or something like PTSA. Also would be nice if a server's management would organize some innovative events and not always stupid unique events. I'd like to see PvP events that come in different modes: 1vs1 event, 4vs4 and/or 8vs8 PTPVP.

If you are interested in more ideas, take a look here.

About skill/classes balance, there is always somebody who will cry. Best is to leave it as it is maybe (even though I think some minor changes are necessary).

No. There just wont be enough people to keep it alive like before.

Maybe if it was some kind of pvp server..but that probably wont work either.

Something so legendary will live in your memory anyway :wink:

I agree. There is not even one server out there with a convincing concept. They all require you to make all activities to get your endgear instead of letting the players chose what way they prefer. On top they focus on selfish play with rewards for uniques, kills and CTF. And people wonder why everyone is either Warrior or Wizard. :palm:

Not to mention the massive amount of unnecessary edits (automatic events, 10 types of SoX, new glows). Some servers have too much content actually. They'd better save some of it for future updates.

Ah Salvation, never forget !

In the end what concept could it be that would make everyone play. Its the same game everyone knows no matter what they add, real issue is that there's just too many servers. New Salvation would not have enough players to support old style and adding botting would just change it into one of 1000 epvp ones. Silkroad players are getting older and barely anyone cares about being legit and all that jazz.

Remember it for what it was and move on.

Hey, I'd definitely join that, we tried redoing it with aristocrat but we never got beyond the pre pre alpha, Salvation was my best silkroad experience for over a year, I played it until it had less than 20 online player on average, and I'd play it again!

Yes, please yes. I'd play on a real legit server just for the nostalgia. I'd help with host support too. Ikaras here. I guess not many (if any at all) remember me but I was the wiz/warlock at the start of the server that took first 4 unique kills ;P
