Should War have a "make-over"

    I used to play War along time ago. Yesterday I logged in and there are barely any people on. There are NO developers for War I understand, but coming back for the first time in years and I see the exact same problems as there were before. WarZ has made many great strides to make that game better, and others too! War has been the same for too long. The WFS (War Fun Sundays) are a nice touch... when Rourke isn't lazy... That was the reasoning for yesterdays no WFS. War used to be filled with several servers full.

    I am someone who has knowledge about brawl just because of the amount of time I have spent on it, which has been several years.

    Wild West is completely amazing, WarZ is always changing for the better, and the other servers are keeping up numbers. I was disappointed that a game I used to enjoy is now almost never played because its been the same for a few years.

    I realize that the coders have stepped down for War, but is it worth keeping that part of the server up? Even at peaks there are very few players on especially compared to years ago.

    Thoroughly disappointed in the care of War at the moment. I've been a loyal paying customer to Brawl for years. I feel as War should be revamped in some way. I'm sure many other people have the same problem. War is a great game to play, but joining in at a peak time, there will maybe be 10/20 people on. Which if you remember, many of the servers would have been full.

    I can't imagine much if any money is made off of War now. I am afraid it will be shut down.

    How, specifically, do you propose to Make War Great Again™?

    Agreed :V Still though . War during the afternoon has a good lot of players 20 - 35 . And it might be you're timezone .

    Thank you Mr. Trump,

    My idea of creating a better server is out of my jurisdiction. I am unable to code, I just play and enjoy the game. I am sure that Mods/Devs already know that War is/has been in decline for some time. I am just hoping to give them a PSA to make sure the paying members of Brawl get a decent experience for their money.

    It does you are certainly correct. A few years ago, Server 1, 2 and 3 were almost full ALL THE TIME. I feel as War has declined because it has stayed the exact same for too long. Nothing new has happened, and when it did, a mod doesn't even do it... (WFS) Kind of upsetting to someone who enjoys the game.

    Ahh just add some lines of code, throw in some more weapons and give it a sparkle. Now you have a War update! Simple right? :v

    The problem is the code is old, unworkable, unpredictable and can constantly cause problems. As much as I loved it to death, improvements that effect old coding probably won't happen. Although some more simpler changes would help.

    War has been on the increase to be honest. More players then we had 5 months ago. We do have a dev working on war 2.0. Ideas are being thought up for war as we speak.

    >compares War to the slum of its lifespan to say it's on the rise
    While it's true it's more active than it was, it's far less active than it was, say, a year or two ago.

    That is what I'm saying. I'm not right now and there is 1 person on. Several years ago we could have 3 servers full any time.

    RMST11 (or whatever the mods name is) said there are no current War Devs.... I do appreciate the response. I had no idea that War 2.0 was on the way. I hope war can return to its former glory.

    War 2.0 is being worked on real hard, and once that comes out, war will be removed and put aside by war 2.0.

    As stated above, there is a developer working on War, Totom3. Though, as the "legacy" War code is pretty chaotic, he's only working on War 2.0, which is making great progress, as you can see from the testing seasons.
    As far as I know, there has been WFS last week. There was some confusion with the exact time though, as America had a time change, but not Europe. I guess that was the reason why you missed it.
    I can absoutely understand that you are disappointed and I have felt the same. Nevertheless, after RockTomb has been promoted to War Manager, the War staff team is actively working on some changes. Examples are the brainstorming thread about gun balancing in the current war as well as the brainstorming about War 2.0 events.
    Don't worry, we got this.
    The "legacy war" server won't be removed as a whole, but be kept as a single "legacy war" server, next to War 2.0. Purchased donor guns, unlocked guns and reached levels will stay on this server and won't be moved to War 2.0. But you're partly right, nevertheless: Our main focus will be on War 2.0.

    Totom is currently coding War 2.0, there will be a testing session this weekend as you can see here. I'd recomend you to check that out if you have the time. It will hopefully revive the old player amounts, maybe not 12 full servers but one full server is probably a good start.

    The current war is, just as @SkullcrusherLD said hard to change but since RockTomb became the war manager we try to improve as far as the code allows us to. Feel free to come up with ideas if you have any, if it's not possible in the current war it might be a good idea for 2.0 instead.

    As stated above, @Totom3 is the war Developer and he has done a amazing job and making 2.o. There is a testing session next week for 2.0, and it will be hosted at event.brawl.com at 9PM UTC. Now I am the war manager I am going to get some updates for legacy, and most important, 2.0.
