What's the general player count online look like? I mean, under 3 average and I'd not be willing to play for very long-not if a server with 705 responds can't even get 3 players :smile.gif:
Other than that I'm definitely willing to join in on the fun!
The server is definitely populated. Although last night I did end up solo for about 10 minutes during the wee hours of the morning...however people started coming on in mass through the next hour.
You're unlikely to wind up with less than 3 people for long, here.
Alright, sounds more than good enough for me :smile.gif:
I definitely am not requesting to have entire areas protected; I'd still like to see structural damage during PvP (Perhaps); but the prospect of being the water clan and feeling wary about building underwater because of the inherent flaw of doing so is rather disheartening.
Is it possible, perhaps, to protect the tops of the structures only? This would requires some extra work to prevent flooding on the player's part, but would resolve one of the biggest issues I mentioned earlier. (IE: Build a sewer system that can account for walls but not worry about the rest of the area)
I see more on what you mean now. How this might work with domes or spheres, it might be harder, but you could basically have a square of glass and have the top protected, so that it cannot be destroyed and have water just flood into the entire city. But then the sides and even undersides of the glass would be able to be destroyed. Is that right?
If so, i will definitely mention this to others as it seems a pretty good idea.
Correct. For more perspective, I'll fill you in on the project I'm working on that brought on this issue to me. I wanted to build an Atlantis, of sorts. Think an underwater city...But there's no city. I'm trying to "reclaim" the ocean floor for the water clan by encasing large amounts of ocean floor in glass, and then am going to allow people to build freely within it. The problem with doing this is that, obviously, glass is easy to break and with a large surface area at the top of this structure. Holes would be easy to punch into it and it wouldn't matter how extravagant a sewer system I devise, the city would be easy to destroy.
However, if the surface of this area (Currently it's planned to be flat, or slightly curved at the edges to round it off) could not be destroyed- that in itself would limit the water damage that could be done without allowing the entire water clan a perfect safe haven.
I'd love to help out with that project :biggrin.gif:

A City makes perfect sense!
I welcome all help towards finishing this project in a timely manner. The first and most important thing any water clan member can help me with without having me personally oversee the project is to simply collect massive amounts of dirt and glass. Dirt is more important at this stage; I've got tons of glass but definitely not enough...but dirt is needed to drain the city. Once I finish the borders to the main first installment of the city (We can always add more in the future), it'll be as simple as letting you guys come in and drop the dirt until everything is filled up.

They're working on ironing out all the issues-don't worry. Might take a bit though, heh.
Well I just hope it's fixed before PvP is out on the server or were gna have people disapearing in the middle of combat.
