[quote="LUPISCUS"]Soma was always a grind fest We have server x 2 speed .. we have rested xp = 4x faster than old esoma .. no need really to moan about slow levelling ... most players here remember old soma.. we have it easy Crafting so much easier... put mats in once...hold button .. or press windows key.... 100 x easier than old soma We have gms that put in a regular presence... we get events... they try to weed out the cheats/botters Look at the other games around at the moment... p2p... pay to win... pay for ''companions'' .. pay for pets.. pay for upgrade items..... pay for the chance of this.. or the chance of that..... everything here is free...just needs some time and effort. other games...armours and weapons are level based.... so u end up with no diversity of stats in players... have to be level 40 to use this weapon.. or wear that kind of armour....... Ends up with all characters of same level wearing the same armours..using the same weapons. Some exaggeration here, but u get my point. Different ways of levelling your character, differences in stats and builds we can achieve was always the 'selling point' of soma and very few games since have come close to the diffrences that can be achieved here. Soma isnt the best looking game in the world... its not the most complex.... but so much here that modern games havent come close to matching. Thats why most of us are still here... Lets try look on the bright side of things.. Isylv/ fin doing a great job more than 12 months later ... Still getting updates..events...and its all fro free dont forget.. Lets be happy :P Oh..and fantastic craft system here ( did i mention my upgraded hero boots ^ ) ( let the flaming begin ) ^^ [/quote]

[quote="HURRICANE"]Brilliant server overall, well done GM's, now looking forward to halloween event! [/quote]

[quote="PROTEUS"]Its a great Soma server. However for me personally, I have 272 hours of playing and im still no where near being able to take part in anything with other players. I think Soma needs more itemization personally. More fun stuff to go rather than a grind and try to be the best type deal.[/quote]

[quote="SYLVERANGEL"]Aye always nice to see a positive note about soma ... i myself have quit wow a year ago and i still prefer playing soma atm a year later! Grinds are part of this game ... I myself play 2 chars at the same time to make it less boring.[/quote]

[quote="BRADLEY_COLE"]good post lupiscus, good work isylver good too see someone posting good feed back :)[/quote]

[quote="BASIL"]Cause you don't mind the grind, doesn't mean it's right?!?! Only people that don't mind it is the ones that have nothing to do irl apart from playing soma 8hours a day, how is anybody that can get on for 10hours a week going to enjoy that grind !?!? Soma was about the grind when uc was 500+ back on esoma but now we need to keep as many players as possible, no matter how long they can play for.....[/quote]

[quote="JARAGOONDOO"]Best Soma server since... well, ever.[/quote]

Personally, i like a game to last abit longer than 2-3 weeks... Grinding isnt ''right'' or wrong..Dpends on your personal preference[/quote]

[quote="LYRA"]As a dedicated Dsoma player I can't thank the GMs enough for all the attention they've given it on this server. I only started a week ago and already dsoma feels like a far more fleshed out game than i've seen on any other server, too often all that's done is add some new mobs at the high end and be done with it. Here it looks like they've taken serious steps to address the balance issues (not just vs humans, but between dsoma classes themselves) as well as make the game more interesting to play - more varied drops, crafting, upgrades. I know the focus will always be on hsoma, but giving us devils some love is great to see! <3[/quote]

[quote="IMCON"]This is definitely the best overall Soma server ever. It's really refreshed the game and made it fun again -- excellent job all around. We should certainly all be very thankful for the job the GMs have done. I would echo things-other-than-being-the-best sentiment though :p With the amount I can play, I'll never be the best. So the thing that keeps me going (aside from the community) is personal goals, or anything that is fun but isn't as efficient a use of time as other things and so isn't something everyone would do. Quests are always nice :) Personally I always loved how level 4 spells used to be so unattainable, but also only mildly beneficial... made getting them a goal a lot of people wouldn't bother with once upon a time. Maybe we could add an even more mysterious level 5 ;) Only a very minor upgrade though. Not everything has to be the most practical move to be interesting or fun. As a mage at heart, I would love something special to strive for even if it didn't have much practical purpose.[/quote]
