Yes because recent update is responsible for a decline that happened
before it? 11/10 logic m8
First of all,
your stats is incorrect. It's literally says there it's based on
last 24 hours.
Here's the actual server average peaks
during these 2 months. And it's quite stable and growing even. Supports haunter statement of 40 Player+ good GM server. 24 hours shouldn't even be that relevant because it's summer vacation time during this part of the world, european times make up for it.
And yeah, most of the players at peak and average times
are new players. And I prefer that than orange tag filled server that you enjoy.
Many regulars left
before the update, rest after. Which I mostly don't care for.
And yeah the gameplay is wayy more fair now, unless you mean not shooting all your friends and letting your president die or shooting a 3 player good team with 10 civillians on a rustler with sniper which they can't counter.I don't wanna flood this post with screenshot and video evidences.
I have spent 1200+ hours (Not even counting time as UC) here in 1-2 years, I had to wait 10-20 rounds or something for a good GM, now it's like every 2-3 rounds at the cost of a playerbase that contributes nothing.
That 10-12 player GM is way more fun than the half assed 30 player server with 25 players as civilian. I want Plan B PTP, not CIVILIAN CHILL Server featuring PTP. If you want just the server to look good from the tip top, then the chart above already gives you what you want.
If I recall correctly a similar decline had happened before pre-2019 atleast, but that's just because of season (maybe Im wrong). It will grow later.
On a fun note, Im seeing less and less players in Rip off PTP and more in ours during average times. New players ARE coming. Maybe rather let them enjoy their GM and make them feel welcome than ruin their GM as civilians and armor whoring?
Bet by July, if the cards are pulled right we would be back to 20+ average with better GM. Earlier Plan B was dependent on it's own community to retain the playercount stat, now it's mostly dependent on new input. Server needs more advertisement and some peeps are already working on that
BASICALLY
>Decline happened BEFORE new update. Playerbase don't grow in just 1 month,more newbie based, takes time, non European players busy.
>Yer stats are wrong. Last 24hr =/= 2 monthly average. It is 10-20 , lower but growing, even with main input decline. If ye want just tip top lookin good, then server peak is good.
>Lot of fun in PTP with people actually playing the GM. 30 player Orange server (20+ civilian) << 10-12 GM server (2-3 civil). Unless flawed orange PTP preference.
>Regulars and newbies mostly left before, some after, and people who won't join. English community dying in general (SAMP isn't)
>NOT constantly low, avg - high during European times. Players leaving+Playerbase from different hours being busy+usual stuff = 10+ playerbase but with good GM and less anti-GM shits.
>Bet will grow considerably by July, need more advertisement now its more newbie dependent.
