Copium
On the last ‘massive’ ban wave we didn’t see a single dip in the playerbase but the queues were gone.
We wont get skins because they need to censor the fu** out of everything first before they will release it. Thats why we will get the RU fire skin next and after that they are done with censoring the KR skins 
Maybe they will tell us some bs again “oh we only did this because you wanted more diversity”
AGS diversity yes, you can create more skins but not censor (and that badly) the old ones.

its not that deep dude 
in fact this is amazing this means that have slammed down on the bots ten fold, banning 100,000s of accounts
The Assassin skin don’t even have pants, so I don’t see the censoring fear to be honest.
Why are you saying copium when that’s actually what happened? Go do some digging and have a look yourself. One actually happened with the update.
It doesn’t bother me if people actually leave the game. Happens all the time with every MMO. Just in this case this is actually what happened.
Yep, totally what happened.
Go check out Luterra Castle on any channel on any server right now. You’ll see more bots than actual players in every channel.
Also I don’t need to ‘do research’ I’ve been playing this game 12+ hours a day since launch, I have over 500 hours invested. Every patch I checked the player numbers when they said bots were banned and there wasn’t a significant dip in the player numbers ever, at all.
Thats because AGS is doing the censoring so random that there is no way to tell what they will censor and what not. I mean they gave Innana a skin color bra , but let the soulfist plat skin untouched. They gave one of the gunslinger female tops a black “cover” , but other armors are again untouched.
50% of playerbase have not even reached to T1 xd My friends from Albion gave up cuz of long and boring story line quests xd My third guild today have fallen now again I have nobody to play a lot of people leaving this game cuz of time gates, boring gameplay, forcing us to make alts and so everything from the beggining. In my opinion grind timegates in this game are much worse than in New World compating LAO to NW, NW was not so bad and after rework and fix bugs NW is much better game xd
they weren’t gone on valtan unfortunately I was still getting 8000 something in queue after the first ban wave but today no queues.
We all know that the accounts get created rapidly. Unless they’re willing to hire GMs round the clock or implement some ID system nothing will change.
You haven’t done any digging at all. If you did you’d know they nuked about 60%+ of farmers with the Argos update. Some players probably left because of the patch but bot numbers dwarf player numbers.
I don’t really know what happened with the first wave. I don’t think they removed such a large volume instantaneously which is probably why there was no major dip shown.
You are seriously overestimating the amount of bots.
You are delusional if you think bots make up 400k players.
90% of my my guild and pretty much all the players I speak to on a daily basis are disillusioned with the game after the patch. A lot of them have been putting in 10+ hour days since the release, taking time off only to not be able to do content as it comes out.
A bunch of streamers that have played on KR for years are not even trying to push to 1370 because of how stupid the requirement is, about 350k in raw gold. It’s a terrible patch, 0 communication regarding the early release or future plans like a road map.
That’s why the game lost half it’s playerbase. Thinking most of it is bots is pure cope.

Ppl always saying that’s normal, every game has high peak at the beginning and then they normalize. Well, we moved from 1.3M to 700k in less than a month…it’s not normal at all.
EUW is a dead land already, in a couple of months you won’t find anyone to play with and matchmaking queues will take ages. Ofc AGS won’t have any solution to merge EU servers back in one community only and ppl will have to lose everything if they want to go back to EUC.
This game started in a very bad shape, AGS took the worst decisions they could take. Shop NOT reworked to have less P2W stuff as western community never wanted that, censorship, LACK OF CLASSES, no sense release content, AWS servers bad quality, communication and players feedbacks not heard at all, LIES on what they promised respect what we had, and much more.
They ruined this game. They just needed to do a couple of things and leave everything else as it was.
Get rid of most annoying P2W elements. I’m not saying to leave skins only in the shop, but Aura sub HAD TO BE THE ONLY major selling point outside of fahion sutff.
Release all classes from the start, because lot of people was already playing them in other versions, and releasing new conenct in a reasonable way. Dropping Argos with no T1/T2 catchup, without new raids, has been the wrost decision ever. Several people, both F2P and a bit dolphin, realized that if you don’t shop you cannot play at a reasonable pace. They just needed to follow the same roadmap that has been used in other regions instead of inventing their own with no brain.
AGS is the publisher, a publisher doesn’t know ANYTHING about games, they just rent servers and take money. Also, New World didn’t teach anything to them, they need to STAY AWAY from games, they never know what they do and destroy them. I’m really wondering when they decided to oipen AGS, who the hell they hired. You need gamers to develop games and make a success with them, not just business and marketing men.Really, the impression is that they never know what they do and the consequences they will have. I’m just sad they took this game that I was waiting for years and completely ruined it, because outside of this I don’t care if AGS like to ruin everything they touch, they can do whatever they want, but hell not this game ffs.

Oh i have to say i didnt even know about that before. Thats really shitty of them then to say they only censored the starting outfits if thats not the case.

Lacking of the class i want to main is pushing me away slowly, and as me many others.
When on a 120k players poll you see over 60% wants to main LM or Scouter, it’s easy to understand why the player number is falling right now.

I want to play, but G0x9-SPELPWP1P2NT error won’t let me.
TBH lot of ppl like me are making a break until AGS find a solution which they struggle to give us for 8 days now… Sad sad!
i mean
i can only speak for me but i stopped logging until the bot situation is fixed and my class is released
i have been at 1340+ for 2 1/2 weeks now and i have no desire to push with my mats on a class i dont enjoy
and the lack of skins and customization is absolutely horrid

Wow a goon who has nothing better to do than bully ppl who are interested in sth.
For the first time since launch, I didn’t log in on reset day.
-STILL no roadmap.
-One “edgy” skin.
-Mario Kart?
-Unable to play the class that I enjoyed on RU (and no updates on when).
This isn’t a “I saw a preview and think it might be my new main”… This IS I played to 50 on RU and got up to silver in pvp. Im not going to push for Argos, so I’ve literally stopped upgrading my main and just going to stack honing mats until they release it.
