I am getting really sick and tired of the same garbage about "this game is dead" and the developers are "Insert some random crap".  Fact is None of you guys *** and complaining on the forums over and over again are even actively playing.  You log in, look at general chat and then log out. 

I've been here.  And there is something VERY surprising you will notice different.  The names in General chat.  EVERY day I see atleast a handful of new names.  Players asking in recruitment if any corps recruiting, whats the status of the game, whos doing what or whos doing who?  And what pisses me off is I could recruit them and bring them into our gaming community, but what's going to happen when they want to pew pew?  There is no one left playing over there but 4 Russians ninjaing saps. 

And meanwhile there is seasoned veteran players QQing on the GD forums about how dead your game is and how dumb people are and let's insult everyone and be a *** all the time!  Get off your Lazy *** ***.  If you wanted this game to succeed your answer would not be "Well guys the basement developers, hue hue hue, are at it again!  I can't do something, whoa pitiful me!"  Shut the hell up.  DO SOMETHING IN GAME.  CREATE HYPE, CREATE CONTENT, and RECRUIT.  They are there waiting to be picked up like a blossoming flower.  Stop thinking Zoom needs to hold your god damn hand every 20 seconds and give you play by play of when he is going to take a ***.

The past is the past and if you want to live in it, at least do the rest of us a favor and stop posting on the forums like a bunch of cry babies.

WOW WOW pot kettle black much? Im sure if you log into the game & check out how FEW people are playing its a fare comment to say its a "dead game" i mean the steam charts dont help. http://steamcharts.com/app/223410

Heres the problem my Oh so learned friend players can only create content in a sand box IF the Sand box lets them. Perpetuum doesnt at this point in time. People in this thread & others have given the OH SO MANY reasons why.

Also LOL @ the dude who partly blamed these forums for the games failure.... forum pvp > in game PVP ?

And now onto the the main issue about the above Quote:

All I see is QQ Vile & really it makes me sad to see this from you. lets look at who owns every thing. CIR & 77. (cons & RAD are only on the map coz they are allowed to be there). Any way ....
Lets look at the facts. First off CIR & 77 have the undeniable lead on the ENTIRE server. Why? the understanding of how this game works in an intimate manner. The ability to produce as needed to fund large scale PVP campaigns. Having a good spy network.
Their clear supremacy in PVP tactics <<< this alone has a massive impact.

Now im going to point to the game going down hill at 2 stages.
First when the norhoop treaty broke down & noob corps could no longer take the constant PVP harassment.
What did CIR 77 do? NOTHING you could have stepped up & saved the noobies but you didnt.

Second, JOKE. lets be honest you made sure they left coz you wanted the targets to shoot at. imo Jita seemed only to happy to oblige. Im not sure why tho. He lacked everything that he would need in order to fight CIR 77 effectively. Ill list a few things that stood out to me:
Lack of indy to supply mechs & fittings
Lack of basic PVP training for new members
Lack of FCs who understand perpetuum pvp tactics.
Lack of Leaders who understand what good Diplomacy is all about
Jita failing to create an effective & large Coalition  to fight CIR 77
Not learning lessons from perpetuum history (aka. how CIR & its alliance were able to fight & keep up with an enemy like M2S despite M2S having an unlimited amount of bots)
Failure to manage JOKE & allies moral

Just a few things I picked up. If any one disagrees well..... I dont care

Its just some players were to new & tried to do to much & didnt except the help or guidance they were given.
Or were so bad at leading their corp & alliance they literally told their members to not log in any more due to "unplayable game" or some thing stupid like that. i mean 500 people & you lost them ALL in a few months???? Not even NEX managed that Jita.

CIR & 77 were playing a different game one were they planned, created strategies that would work), implemented them, trained new players in the art of war & then crushed all before them.

And just thing people what might have happened if this game had just 1 man who could have stood up & united the server to stand up to the evil CIR-77 Empire. But alas it wasnt to be. no man was found in all the land

So Vile as you can see if you took your blind fold off & had a look at perpetuums VERY resent history People have tried (and the few that are left are still trying) to do as you say " DO SOMETHING IN GAME.  CREATE HYPE, CREATE CONTENT, and RECRUIT".

new players will come but they will leave again. as they always have. the cycle will not end till the game gets more PVE content & when the 2 of the 3 most powerful corps this game has even seen let it happen.

Or some one grows some balls & does what Little noobies Syndic did nearly 4 years ago took on the giant & won!

Oh Sh*t wait your right all the bitter old vets of this game only QQ on the forums. Welp guess Ville is right after all!

...I also agree with the meandering Gwyndor post about how getting new players isn't as hard as keeping them logging in...

^^ So true

Ps.. if you have read this far all I have to say is.... what the hell is wrong with you?? why would you read my rant!?!?!?

Probably should have thought of that before you went around sticking your nose into people's noralgis plantations right?

Outposts have nothing to do with getting crushed. Being roamed is a completely different thing.

What you should be asking for is a protection shield that stops everyone else from attacking you. Stomp your feet around and threaten to unsubscribe. Mention goat simulator and zoom doing his job. That kind of thing.

HAAA HAA !!! Slim Shady !!! now that im rocking a PHM tatt on my chest I was about to edit this post up and take away all my recruiting stuff for NSI .... BUT then i thought of the history and political struggle of the game and decided to leave the post un edited just for historical records sake .... like 10 years from now your sitting in front of the FAKE Amish hand carved fireplace you got at walmart with your little one on your knee and your telling the legends of the great and powerful TYRONE BIGGUMZ who " Started from the bottom now we here" how that crazy bastard charged into the heart of the enemy Screaming ( you only live once ) YOLO ..... then died ... and came back to life like jesus jumped back into a bot and Yelled YOLO again and charged again and died again  ... Using this SWEET SECRET  tactic he single handed defended the foe  ! .. mostley cuz it was a Monday night and all them fools that diddent run out of ammo had to go to sleep so they could get up for work in the morning and the ones who diddent have to go to work got bored and then the server crashed and TYRONE proclaimed it a VICTORY ... ... ANYWHO .. he is know as the one man Army who Was Victorious in the battle Of Arkhe Hill ..

So this thred is for the Babbies yet to come !
