Red is terrible. It is only for the most bored of the bored. It only exacerbates every problem you'll ever find on blue. Can't find a group? Good luck with 1300 less people. Can't find an item? Good luck with 1300 less sellers. Not a Neckbeards with 90 hours a week to play? Enjoy having your limited play time ruined by trolls. I cannot recommend anyone but the total hardcore, total bored, total neckbeard or total troll ever play on red.

I've seen quite a few new players on red from blue. Very happy to see this. I'd like to thank The Knights Who Say Ni for taking the plunge and making a transitional guild for players like themselves. Probably Jeremy too, he's been on red a lot as well.

It's not the horror story you may have heard about, though it can be. It's not for everyone but as someone who started here on blue and eventually tried red and played long enough to become invested, I highly recommend it.

It's not for life, you don't really need to be high level to have fun. Lots of low level pvp, some grief, but mainly fun. There is just something about playing against both the players and the environment that dramatically increases the immersion.

Your first few weeks, you might even lash out at the people you care about, but if you stick with it, I can almost guarantee you will have some fun [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

If you're one of these people feel free to encourage others to come play by posting about your adventures on red in this thread.

I know some of you have had bad experiences on red, those can and do happen, but if we could focus on the positive, even if for only one thread, I think it might help the guys on the other side of the table who also passionately play this game, we're kinda hurtin atm [You must be logged in to view images.

Hope to see you there!

Thanks


Food for thought: 10-20 more players even if casual could really help red and also give the mobs here a chance to pop.
My friend, son and I all thought it would be fun to join red once. As soon as we did we were met in our newbie zone with "Get off the server you boxers!". We said politely, we are not boxing and then continuously were harassed and killed by a couple of twinks until we left and never came back.

This is why your server is toast and eventually will be replaced with another blue server. It is your own population's fault.

Nah, reds a good time, sorry you're so sensitive. I've played on blue and it was not fun.

Clearly this is coming from someone who's never camped an item, or done any solo work themselves. Not saying that's a bad thing but you've got to bear in mind that you get out of red what YOU put in into it. It's all very easy to sit in EC and just buy up what you need... on red its harder, you gotta farm it yourself or pay over the odds for it.

For Tzeriel, the mountain is too steep... so he's not gonna climb it.

It isn't a mountaintop. It is a pit. There is no extra "Challenge". This is not a PvP game. It isn't even 5% balanced for PvP. Red server exists to keep the extreme trash off of blue. The fact that the inmates willingly imprison themselves is a great thing.
