PVP Server Shutdown Statement

 

As many of you know, the PVP server has been down for a couple of months now due to various reasons, mainly involving those with WU itself. Wurm itself is a very niche and special game and it's definitely not for everyone, same goes for PVP but at a more extreme level.

 

Our vision for a PVP server was that similar to WO Chaos, where players are focused on land control. Ofcourse, true land control takes time and dedication with MANY players, working towards the same goal as a collective to crush the enemy kingdoms. This is where the fault in Wurm Unlimited lies, it lacks that player base needed for any long-term large scale PVP operations. Even so, there are many different choices of servers in WU and not a single server is the type for everyone.

 

The PVP server stayed up for 2-3 months after launch and was empty for a majority after the first month, with many reasons why it failed, some of those being the map size, or skill/gain timers. While the map could have been much smaller, the skill gain and timers had to remain untouched due to the servers be sailable via boats as it would create situations where you could be taking advantage of these higher gains, only to come back to the PVE server and own every skill out there.

 

There is also the subject of sustainability, running an empty server of that size (4096x4096 map with insane creature counts) for 2-4 months was highly wasteful of resources which could and later would be put towards increase creature counts and increase resources for the PVE server. We also had many ideas that never saw the light of day and I assure you, we are just as disappointed as you were.

 

As a result, All characters from the PVP server will also be moved to the PVE server at Paradise Lake. There is also a possibility we will make the map and database files downloadable for the public.

 

While the PVP Server might no longer exist, the PVE Server will continue to grow strong and exist for a very long time and we appreciate the amount of support we receive from our community and at this time Redneck Solutions will not host another PVP server.

Wurm Unlimited Server Updates

  • Monthly silver for December has been rolled out

  • Lawns now have a pack change of 1:80 offdeed and 1:400 on deed with optimum creature ratio.

RSDiscordBot will allow players in Discord and the Wurm server to communicate directly via both platforms and that is its only current feature at the moment. I plan to extend upon and offer rewards for chatting or doing simple minigames in discord that can be used ingame on the Wurm server. For more details check the initial post.

All chats from freedom and global freedom will be relayed from the server to the #relays channel of discord and likewise using the commands below:

  • >fc MESSAGE : Posts from #relays channel using this command will be broadcasted ingame to freedom chat
  • >gc MESSAGE : Posts from #relays channel using this command will be broadcasted ingame to global freedom chat
  • >ca MESSAGE : Posts from #relays channel using this command will be broadcasted ingame to CA Help

As many of you already know, I have left the Wurm Unlimited server a while back ago and decided to make an official post.

 

I thoroughly enjoyed my time working on the mods and playing with you all and it was one awesome ride but I'm not disappearing! I will still run the RSGaming(Redneck Solutions Gaming) community and plan to host more games for us in the future so stick around as more developments may occur.

 

If you want additional information on mods, feel free to contact me as I am willing to sell them.
