Tree of Savior Forum

Population dropping again?

check out Albion online

Isnt that a mobile game?

It is cross platform, most players are on PC for now.

Social media propaganda isn’t really anything that helps this game. Imo it would be better if people had enough fun to bring their friends and play together rather than sucking up to nobodies who try to play for a day or two and then get bored.

Also social media is the cancer of the world. Especially Feces Book and Zwitter, those demonic instances of human cruelty and propaganda. If a certain little man with a small beard beneath his nose would’ve had the opportunity to make an online platform for boasting with his crimes and to spread his propaganda, he would’ve created something like Feces Book or Zwitter, no doubt about this.

Better not have a stronger presence there, people would leave more negative comments than they did (rightfully,though) on S#!t慂eam.

Making the game playable and enjoyable so that people don’t leave in the 1st place is the right way to go.

This guy probably got slapped so hard in the face by reality and never touched the game again since that 5.6 hours. LMAO

Positive reviews are mostly from players who has only played the game for less than 100 hours, some even stopped months ago. Negative reviews are from a good amount of players who has played the game for thousands of hours.

This only means one thing: end game is sh~t right now. IMC should take notice.

Or maybe they’re just trying to break the old record:

There’s nothing to promote the game via social media anyways, most of the games have at least hard raids, dungeon time attacks or dungeon dificulty modes, good pvp, gvg or battlegrounds. Tree of savior has nothing of that, so there’s nothing exicting to see. TBL its beyond broken and not fun to watch, neither are solo dungeon/salus runs, since trans make everything super easy.

That’s wishful thinking. Gameplay is crap. Netcode is crap. How can you increase your playerbase through word of mouth. But I know you will counter with this argument ā€œTOS needs to fix their gameā€ but the reality is they can’t. They don’t have enough money. Social media marketing is cheap. So why not do it? This game F2P for chrissakes!!! Everyone can try if they like this game or not and you don’t want to do social media? That’s BS.

Lol yeah, that " I also like how you can easily report bots" only holds true for gold spammers in town who recieve like 100-500 reports a day.

If you ever try to report real bots via the ingame function, they will never be touched.
They will only be banned if you report them on the forums (which most people don’t do because it’s a hassle to make a video,crop it, upload it to an external source and write a stupid bot report just to get rid of a bot that is created with less effort than a player has to pressure the Staff to remove him).

They tried to fix the game, but a lot of issues are still persisting/recurrent, but on iTOS only(hence IMCed). There are also bugs incoming with updates that are completely unrelated to their content. Yet they don’t care and update every week with some useless stuff to make the whales pay for the server upkeep.



A lot of people suggested to close down the servers for a while to do the fixes (and thus save time on adminstration + money on server expenses), but to no avail. Population can only drop till there’s noone left to pay the servers. If the whales leave, noone will pay for the servers anymore.

It’s like those states of Greece, Turkey, Argentinia and Venezuela trying hard to keep their state running although their is no hope to save it from bankruptcy.

I.e. the outcome of when ā€œnever change a running systemā€ got cancer.

I expect the population to increase as iToS players log in to test the changes, but then people will leave again when they realize there’s no real end-game content or much PvP to explore.

I wonder if the devs don’t feel any shame that the whole rank 8 content will only be solmiki, hunting grounds, and not enough social interactions while… anywhere in the others video games companies they are not that lazy or disrespectful.

Game is dead, I tried playing RO on a private server and then asked myself why do I punish myself. Went back to FFXIV for stormblood, Great story, new content area’s and classes, and amazing community of players willing to grow the gaming community and help each other without the whole greed stigma in this game…

last but not least, No IMC bullshit.

If I had more time, I’d go back to FF14 as well, but alas I don’t play enough to justify a monthly subscription.

I still hope ToS can flourish and be a good game. There is potential but it is being squandered away.

How does the sudden subscription price raise feel?

ā€˜Amazing community of players’ <- Possibly at late game though my friend that has reached level max mentioned that doing end-game dungeons is hell as many players there still have poor sense of teamwork and the game gives you the possibility to pay to reach max level and skip content instantly, which makes what I said before more likely. Heck, even on realm reborn the chances of getting players that do not fulfill their roles properly is absurd.

No matter what MMO is, there will still be people that will whine about their reality and claim that the grass is greener on the other side.

Why am I saying all this? Well, I own both games :stuck_out_tongue:

what raise?, is still 12,99 usd dollars for me, for certain ā€œregionsā€ was cheaper, and i’m from SA.
imo ffxiv is a much better game than tos, despite being p2p has a growing population but they’re totally different games that please different consumers, if any i would compare tos to d3 or poe before ffxiv for that matter.

so… no r9 and no pvp yet? ok ok
till next time.

no rank 9 info, but fishing. And tons of bugs.

yeap i was playing again for a few days but still seeing the head bug, i don’t think i’ll continue.

if the first thing a lot of people see is some crazy bug, new players are going to think the whole game is poorly programmed. at least they got a little less strict on some of the token restrictions for basic game functions.

Please do not mislead people. You can boost 1 character to level 60 and skip all previouse quests up to recent patch. Once per account on ONE class. you still have to do the Stormblood quests and gear up. it DOES not boost you to lvl 70.

personally i dislike even that, but that is not MAX LEVEL AND SKIP CONTENT INSTANTLY. and you can not do that on new classes or crafters…

White knight lying about other games, sad. Refuse to see TOS is worse than FFXIV in every way. There are good reasons why millions of players rather pay subscription than play ā€œfreeā€ TOS.

I tried creating a new account recently to use the new player event and test some builds.

Due to the population drop, I realize that it is MUCH harder to queue for early dungeons, all the way up and including the 170 dungeon.

Afterwards, it gets easier to find people to queue up in the 200+ range, but it still takes more time than what I remember.

It is doubly difficult to find people to queue up for Siaulai Mission from 100-170 range.

This is going to turn off a lot of new players, even with the event going on, because seeing nobody else in queue for dungeons might be infuriating for them.
