New Map? Thoughts & Opinions Welcome!

[Sky 0]

Heyo friendos,

 

In a couple Skype chats I am apart of, a subject keeps being brought up and that is the thoughts of a new map. Staying on this one has its benefits and having a new map also has its benefits, we've been in Athera for close to a year now and was wondering if anyone is antsy to get to a new map, or not! 

 

I would love to see your opinions and thoughts of this, as for my own well, I wouldn't mind either way but I am leaning more towards a new map. 

 

Please keep things civil, happy thought and opinion giving!

Wtf are you smoking we've been in Athera for 6 months not a year! That being said, I don't really like our current map but neither do I really dislike it. I wouldn't really mind a map change but at the same time I don't like maps changing often or even at all. That's just my personal opinion tho, map changes can be good for the server if done at the correct times.

This map still feels fresh to me, and I feel as if we're flying through these maps. However, I do see the other benefits of having a new map. To me though, I feel as if we should stick with this map a little longer.

I think the server could benefit from both. The current map is just too large. A new map could easily rectify the issue. But at the same time, this map still may have more in store? To be honest, that was my only argument. This map hasn't been utilized properly to create active rp hubs. A new map of the proper size with good guidelines can change that, making roleplay more accessible.

To refine my point I guess ideally I would like for us to get a really good map and stick with that map for a very long time. I don't like breezing through maps but I don't like Athera as a map. It's poorly designed and has had some mismanagement thrown in to add to the cesspool of 'meh.'

I don't want more maps, I want extensions.

can i make the next map? im good at that

My suggestion is to extend the map in the corrupt void area and such, add fast travels for nations to nation capitals, give nations a choice to move their capital farther away and have a fast travel to the cloud temple.

Are you mad blad?

Seriously, we have a size issue, but I personally believe the map is way to small. I was originally under the impression that "if we make a small map, then people will be forced to stay near each other!", I was wrong.

If we have a large map, people will feel more inclined to reside where everyone is, and since the map is so big, venturing to far away from the main hubs will mean the death of their roleplay. It's only when a community of people venture out together that their RP hub will be legitimized and work. Our current issue is that everyone wants to make their own thing, and so everyone tugging at everyone for players.

I honestly feel like we've streamlined rp so much in athera that it actually gets boring. IDK thats just my thoughts

I actually think the opposite. I think we might benefit from a larger map. A larger map with more wild land might contribute to immersion, and provide some sense for expanded roleplay.

What are you talking about man, athera is Aegis! And what Piercing said. I'd rather have an extension and or, have undead or something similar do what the undead were supposed to do and destroy unused areas. The map we have is not necessarily big, but it's spread thin with our current community. Instead i'd rather want to see some event areas made as extensions. And have a benefit to living in nations as opposed to living out by yourself. Like with heatmap, tythus is making. Also, perhaps instead of a map change, we can instead have an extension made south of where we are, and perhaps have events that destroy portions of where we are now and force us to move down there. No new map, no removal of the mula. But a new atmosphere, events to spur up RP. And possible thinning of RP.

We said that about Anthos, I'm pretty sure we'll say that about the next map too.
