Multis and new players

Author Content Date
The majority of the server can only play a few hours a day on average as most prob work full time or have other committments. Yes multi's ruin the game for normal players as do no lifers but there's nothing that can be done really.

I would love to see multi's banned but until you can find a reliable way of determining whether someone is a multi or not then we're stuck with it like this.

Just be thankful that most of the players are casual so there is always going to be people around your level, i've only played 32 hours ingame which is nothing compared to alot of people, and there are so many people around my level, lots of people lower than me aswell.

Why not at the very least implement something like an 84 hour cap per 7 days? This works out to be 12 hours a day. Of course some players will choose to play 12 or 16 hours straight one in a blue moon, perhaps on a weekend. But by setting an 84 hour cap per week, you are allowing for this to occur. Setting an 84 hour cap per week would effect absolutely no one, EXCEPT the 5 to 10 hardcore multis.

Honestly this could easily be set to 60 hours in my opinion, but 84 would be a good place to start.

You can't police multi's , multiple IP address per account is just daft, most people have dynamic ip addresse. I use private Internet VPN so my ip is never the same.

Trying to catch and punish multis via IP would never work as you stated, but surely there can be a high hour cap in place that only hardcore multis would reach. Putting in a 84 or 100 hour weekly playtime cap would be a start. How many people do you know that play Soma 12 hours a day 7 days a week?

Dont change anything i say.

This is soma, Its always been full of Multis and non Multis.

Just because a char is higher lvl than you and is hunting different mobs to you, you dont like it. Does it really matter that some \people are hunting warmess right now?.. No? Does it Affect you that they are? No.?

You are playing this game for you knowone else.

This is a long term Server. And as i keep saying to my friends and guildies. We are here for the long term not the Short. At somepoint we will all hit the same lvl cap.

do you really think Isylver/Fin will raise the lvl 100 cap if 1 person hits it?.. That 1 char with 12 men on it?.. No he wont he will wait for the rest of us to catch up.

I say leave things as they are. This is SOMA !

As to my knowledge level cap is 175.

What I'm saying is put a cap in bod at 75, then in 3 months raise it to 100 then two months after 115 ect.

Works really well in most mmo games iv played,

Agree with most in this thread. In 2 weeks time you won't see a GVW like that we had last night again. Either limit max hours played per week or make a level cap increase every 2-3 months.

Just because it has in the past, doesn't mean it can't be improved in the future.

And yes, it does affect everyone, because they are going to be the ones PKing and eating face at wars. If you spend 6 hours ingame, guess what? They are gaining stats 4 times faster than you. People just won't go to GVW if they are getting 1shot. Quite simply removing one of the biggest reasons people continue to play.

You can talk about long term all you want, but in the mid term everyone will have quit. Enjoy playing long term on a dead server tbh.

Agree with AST's comments above.

Aside from the community "chat room" aspect, I believe most people play for the PVP (GVW, WotW, and PKing). Soma doesn't exactly have a riveting story line, amazing quests, and intense instances.

The changes being proposed (especially a high weekly hour cap) would hurt literally no one but the hardcore multis. If there is someone out there who plays soma more than 70 or 84 hours a week please post. Let me know that there are individuals out there who would indeed surpass this hypothetical limit.
