After playing both Nostalrius & Kronos

[Pottu]

At least try to keep your fantastic claims semi-grounded in reality.

Especially with Kronos having a x7 XP rate for 1 month.

How is 7x XP a vanilla experience

[Pottu]

pretty sure the x7 rate is driving long term interested community away.
The only thing that could draw ppl on there is no lag issues i agree with u on that (if there really is no lag)
I personally havent even done any serious pvp since even at offtimes u can sense a small delay in shit and thats just not bareable for me....
lets just hope the clustering update will releive us and bring us back to no serverlag / delay <3

[sojs]

you know why there isn't lag?

because there is less then 300 players on the server

[Pottu]

Check out the announcements forum. They're working on clustering technology, which has the potential to eliminate any significant delay even with very high population. I really hope they're able to make this tech work, its very difficult, but looks like they're off to a good start.

Having a x7 XP rate is probably a major negative argument for many people around here, including myself. I (and many here) play on Nost just because this is very close to the original experience, requests for any non-blizzlike features are usually replied to with torches and pitchforks.

if it was permanent yes. But for 1 month only to draw in new players and increase the # of players, I'm fine with that.

Lots of so called Fun-Servers with CRAZY XP Boosts or Buy Max Level Characters and such out there that have a few a few hundred players that doesn't need much computer power.

Don't compare apples to oranges.

u should see nost when there are 300 players on thats the reason why kronos does not lagg, i assume if it had 5k ppl it went to super shit

I guess the question is, what's better, higher pop, or lag free experience.
