dont know..maybe if they reduced the sub on it.might attract a few back like myself.thing is i like the small games like this that try something new.well we'll see.

We have suggested this before, to make the payment lower. All they are doing is looking into it and in the meantime milking people out. 9,99 euros is way too much for a non finished game. They should be ashamed of themselves for even asking it.

Yes, I would sub if they whent to like 2 or 3 euros a month and then when the game is finished they can charge 5 euros for it. But not 10 euros when there are so many better games out there and with a free to play game like Guild Wars 2 coming.

The game has potential, but I think you need to have able devs to fix it and I think that theres the prob. No news in months, the game has been out for awhile now about 8 months or more and still no new stuff, really hardly any patches and in the last 4 or 5 months no patching. So.....count 1 plus 1 and you know where they go.

well for me they are wanting £8 a month..i can play a AAA title for that.so why would i sub to god's.btw jungle.when was the last patch added to the game plz.

Well I think its around 3 or 4 months ago. Something like that. But the last patch if I recall well, just made more bugs come out and they never fixed those. They said they would, but never came through on it.

And indeed. For that kindof money I can play many other and better games and I do. I am also a LOTRO lifer, so it doesnt cost me anything to play that one anymore and its way better than this one. But I like the setting of gods and heroes. I like the way they play, etc.

i think a lot of people would like the setting..if it was done right.if a major company came out with something like this they would be onto a winner.but thats just my opinion.i,m also a lifer with lotro and i definatley get more bang for my buck .i think thats how you guys say it in the states.tbh i think this game is dead..theyare maybe waiting til the 2 yr mark to shut it down.dont know.but i doubt you will see anymore content in that game..sorry to be pesemistic but HW kind of made me that way.

Really who would buy this cheap ass made game in the first place, theres so much better out there then this, the combat  and graphics were from 1990, obviously a game that had no budget to begin with, you would have to be crazy to think this game would ever get much for updates and content.

Indeed, thats what people think. If they really had something to say, they would. Thats also why its quiet on the front. They really have nothing to say, then that they are exploring what to do next. Lol! They didnt even take time to greet their fans and gamersbase in the holidays. So....there you have it. I cant make more of it than that untill they prove us wrong, but in the last 8 months or so they havent been able to.

i dont think the graphics were from 1990's..they were more like eq2 tbh.but here is the thing,the game itself was quite fun to play..(guess you had to be there).just the game was handled badly,released way too soon.this game imo was one game that was not wow copy.

Well, no the gfx arent from the 90's. Although they arent the high end like AOC, LOTRO, SWTOR or even GW2. But they can do with it. The overhaul they where doing looked kindof ok to me. The real thing thats also bugging here is, that the real questions are being ignored. None have been answered in any small sence.

I would really like to know how far they are on the estates!

Well, there you have it. Even the lifers are starting to complain on the official forums and do you think master metz replies? This is what I mean with how you should NOT treat your paying customers! Really! If they thought to make money they lost it now and for new games coming out? I would change my companies name if I where them, they lost all confidence of any customer what so ever!

I wouldnt sub for a month now. Since june/july, only a few bugs where fixed, but no new content. So...your not missing out anything there. Not even the supposed revamp has been released.

oh my, now I read on the official forums that they didnt even update their own paysite. Where to get the game or to pay for it. Lol! What is HI thinking? Well, maybe they dont want people to buy untill its finished. That I can understand, but still, not updating their own website, etc. Man! Talk about not knowing what to do huh?

Even if they make this title F2P it won't save it.  While MMO's that had former glory (Lineage 2, EQ2, LOTRO) do succeed well with this sort of conversion if there never was any success previously they'll never gain any traction now (see Alganon), especially if they leave the game mostly untouched.

Now, if they were to find a niche market that was totally not being served right now (like say, those folks who want SWG like crafting) and make changes to cater to them there might be a chance.

But it's more tricky than it seems, in my former example the best crafting system in the world is probably useless if there is no economy (i.e. buyers) to go with it.

You are probably right. They should have revamped it a bit to make it more historically correct, there is a niche market that only a few pirate game tried out.

Well tbh they should'nt charge for it..they should let people d/load it for free.that would be a start lol.give 28 days free grace to try it out ..if then they dont like it dont sub..just another of a million ideas hehe.one way to attract peeps to take a look at it.

Now this is breaking news! Myrla, the most die hard fan, has turned her face away from g&h. I must say, that must be the last shock to the company. And the fact that people (devs, etc.) left the company. I'm almost thinking hardly anyone works there anymore. Maybe master metz is sitting there alone, I dont know. Maybe he is the programmer/pr/administrator/etc. all together, just because noone is left! I dont know.

But this news shocked me, for I did have a little hope left for the company, but as the things are today, I think even the rats abandoned the sinking ship!

Hahahaha, omg that made me almost roll off my chair laughing! hahaha! A good one! I can see it in front of me happening! hahahahaha!

But honestly, if they did have real good news coming, they would have proved us wrong by now. But they didnt, so that just proves us right! Sad!
