Players?

I came back to check PA out. I played it LONG TIME AGO even I forget rounds I was on. lol

Do PA still have over 100,000 players or what? I'm just curious.

Re: Players?

The experience I got with the players I ve brought back after long retirements, is that they find some things to be weird and "shit" but in general like the game.

Get more old players back, thats where we should do our recruitment

I spose we have lost the mail database ages ago? :/

Re: Players?

Having come back from a long retirement, I will agree with the weird etc to come back to - but i've found many things that just aren't easy to play as a 'beginner' again. It really is not the sort of thing you can drop into and pick up with ease.

Re: Players?

You brought back 40 players and none of them wanted to play a second round? Man.

Re: Players?

I'd love to be part legion resurgency into planetarion amrked by annihilation of all that stood in the way, but that would only be for selfish reasons as i can't be arsed looking for a decent alliance out of this lot today. Besides as i remember if they were simple to join they just weren't worth it!

Re: Players?

I played r22 with Willzzz and Jenova. It was surely fun. But mostly becouse of my gal (Horus my old r5 gc, Thor the lovable cynical guy, ogami the n00b and not at least BDB the constant source of incomings).

Re: Players?

I do miss PA, I played through rounds 11-15. Just came back now to see whats happening. Wonder if there is anything we can do to bring the player database back and make the game what it use to be!

Re: Players?

You don't have to play hardcore anymore, i just came back a couple of weeks ago and i'm playing casually at the mo. Independant too, haven't looked for an alliance.

Re: Players?

shame to see that there are so few people left, i too remember the days of 100.000s of players.. i remember round one which was probably bigger then it now.
Something drastic has to be done to continue the game, its a shame there isnt two versions one a more technical and another a simplified one, games like warbook on facebook damage planetarion with their simplicity.

Think their round is over a bit earlier than expected. Thanks for injecting life back into the game!
