Well as a few people mentioned in their post in various threads. The theory that new games being released by OS will surely bury WS in a lower state.
What does this mean ?
The new game Fist of Fu (FoF), is the newest game addition to OS. As being a tester myself, the gameplay and user interface (mechanics of the game) are very identical to WS.
In other words, Fist of Fu will most likely overshadow WS, being the next "revolution" on a 2d-3d game that has a great pvp system.
That being said, WS will surely be starved of more attention and will decay faster and most likely a good portion of players may migrate to FoF, leaving a few veterans alive to keep it going.
Point is, this is another slash to WS community, now that FoF is coming out.
Thoughts, opinions o.o ?

I have resisted getting involved in these discussions for professional reasons, even at the expense of defending myself (I have been called a liar and a cheat by the WS community on many occasions), but I feel that it is important that Windslayer's players understand what is going on.
The only one who is "hurting" or "slashing" at this game right now is the developer. I dedicated myself to rebuilding this game, improving its content and fixing its store because I believe WS has great potential and a very dedicated community.
We got new content, tested it, reported bugs to the developers and scheduled a date to fix and introduce the new maps to you all. Then... nothing. The developer has not responded to emails and did not "show up" to maintenance. We at OS only publish the game; we cannot make changes to it and we cannot fix bugs or update the content without the developer's support.
I will continue to try to reach out to the developer and work to make Windslayer the best game it can be, but I cannot do it alone. I can only ask that you try to be as patient as I have been while we try to sort things out.

Oh wow I feel a bit honored getting a legit response from a GM >.< I assure you that my intention wasn't detrimental to the staff but the game and the community alone.
And I do understand of the mechanics between the developer and publisher.
But if you can answer this, the mmos published in OS, are they mostly from the same company that developed WS as well?
Finally I know its better than no explanation from you or form the staff, which I'm thankful for yours, but why is the reason said now instead of earlier in the year?

No two OS games are from the same developer. It is bad form to criticize our developer-partners so I refrained from making any statements previously. Perhaps my public criticism will spur some action. Or not.

Interesting and yeah it makes sense to have the professional image.
But on what you said earlier about the new content...
This current patch has bugs and glitches. But if OS applied the new content even with some mishaps here and there, would it make no difference in the end or would current bugs conflict with the new content?
My reasoning is, release the new flawed content to restore that hope to the community, and possibly regain the people WS lost. That way it could be substantial evidence to the developers and prioritize their queue to get our updates more often. However the fact that they don't respond at all, err might shoot that down .-.

Stop twisitng my words or either your interpeting the wrong way. This is what I said:
...the gameplay and user interface (mechanics of the game) are very identical to WS.
I never did say they weree completely identical *that means 100%*
Because its very similar means in theory, first time users are more likely to join FoF than WS. In addition, the players in WS may also migrate to that game.
-Fyi, this is a prediction not some fact, get that straight-

We're also on the same boat at the blaming so please.
Finally GMs have no obligations to fuffil your request and your not a part of OS, so I'm defnitely sure he or any GMs will release them to anyone in the community.
Anyway back to phibes, I'll clarify what I said in the previous post.
By applying the patch you have now to the current version, would the game be stable enough to play?
Even with a few more bugs may arise and the current situation, people are more eager to the content than the bugs. Later on, the developer could just send you the fixes needed for any current and new bugs with the new patch based on the reports OS and the player sends.

No actually it can compete due to the similarities of both games. Focusing on Outspark only, the likelihood of a new member of OS choosing between WS and FoF is a good example.
The person is more like to choose FoF based on a new release, GM activeness, and overall interaction. WS may also be his/her choice, but due to the lack of new content and many pvp glitches, over time he/she will burn out much faster than in FoF.
The true reason WS is alive is cause of the pvp system in a 2D mmo , when compared to a global internet scale. However in OS boundaries specifically, FoF will be the favorable outcome.
Moreover, you really misinterpreting what I said. Sure I want the game to close down but not destroy it. Just have it republished by other gaming company. And if everything is lost, oh well? If you love the game, starting from lvl 1 is no problem, no?
About the same boat, GM dissatisfaction. Want quotes, find them in the threads/posts you infested with. I admit I was not pleased, but you, stop rejecting.
Oh and stop hating, cause I was able to get a GM response when you and countless others, failed. kthanksbai,
P.S. Stop flaming my threads, and did you not say earlier you were going to ignore all my posts/threads, hmm ;] And second, I never wanted/stated the position of a GM anyway =.=

Now, here is my take on this. How many of you Windslayer players have played Solstice for about a year? If so, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about. Here is a little history. Solstice was starting to die. We weren't getting updates for months, and was just a bunch of weekly maintenance (woah, sounds like WS right? :o). Ppl were starting to quit. The population was dying. This went on for a good year and a little more. BUT! We got some new GMs. Phibes, Robopanda, and Bondo (who sadly left). These GMs were constantly ingame doing events, looking at what bugs there were, what ppls' opinion on classes were, and more. They've been talking with the devs of Solstice (who has 2 other versions of the game out, and they are only a company of about 16 ppl). Now we are getting patches every week. We've been getting content, and are getting lots more later this summer.
So what am I getting at? I know this is long past due, but patience is needed. Solstice has gone through the same situation you have, and it pulled out fine. The only thing that Solstice had that WS didn't is population. More ppl need to join. I'm not saying to go spend money on the game. That doesn't do much. You just need more ppl. More ppl means better chances at ppl buying, and more ppl telling others about the game. What this game needs the most right now is population. Right now, I can understand why WS doesn't have it's own set of GMs. Why pay GMs to work on a game that at this rate is truly going to die? They'd rather invest them somewhere else.
So once again. This game doesn't need more ppl to pay. This game doesn't need GMs first to start working on it. It needs players. Dedicated players that stick with the game until the very last of it's days. That is what this game truly needs.

I wanna see one like rider used to have Four people One Team.
It was alot of fun even if you didn't win gladly I was not on losing team.
And the Double Exp I think the party boost my self ruined the game a little it gave members a giant boost witch yes increased leveling to much.
If there was no party exp I bet no one would be lvl 99 yet :p.

Umm I kind of skipped the long winded rhetorics throughout the thread. All I am asking is for some reassurance - can the GM make a promise not to close down WS, at least for a certain duration? Or at least can anyone inform me what is the normal procedure for closing a game? Because I spend and will spend SC on windslayer and yet I would be hesistant to do so if WS suddenly closes down with only a short moment of notice.

Thanks for your inputs, but I really want a GM to make some sort of annoucement assuring us that ws won't be close down for at least a certain period of time. We are consumers and I suppose it is fair for us to know how long our "products" will last. So let's wait for a GM reply. (Hopefully they will)

At least you're admitting you don't know anything ... yet you continue to comment on it like you know everything.
If you actually READ what Phibes SAID, he explained it pretty clearly. There are two companies involved in WindSlayer - not one. There's the development company, and there's Outspark - the hosting company. Outspark manages the game, the development company makes it. Therefore, the development company is the only one that can change it, i.e. make updates. Outspark can't update anything until the development company gives them the material (hard sourced code and patches).
I work for a development company myself and I can tell you that Outspark can't really fix bugs or make updates without the developers. Nor can they make promises that WindSlayer will not shutdown. It really depends on the developers now.

ok ty for informing me, but i still want this game dead. The developers need to know that if they can't update the game, they should drop it.

I'd rather just drop you,thats'all. One single Player.

Oh jeez we have a "professional" giving her testimony due to experience. Uh what happened to that event you hosted? You failed to achieve any long term results..(Well you did by wasting your money and "temporarily" boosting the population?) [Fyi, I was a GM/Co-admin of another game too]
Anyway though what you said is right.... (cough it was explained by me and many others on this forum, good job, you have a BA in being intelligent, well I have a masters using common sense and reading) it can be presumed the developer company of WS has abandoned OS. Moreover the proof is the lack of updates of this game and the repetitive message of server maintenance in the patch notes.
As for Deo, as being a Solstice player myself as well, though the player loyalty was solid enough to keep the going, it was the GMs that kept the community as a whole in check.
Finally as for doki, your so defensive, using my quotes.
Very cute and you pretty much signed yourself for surrendering, so wave that white flag, nyah? :x

Out of curiosity, is Outspark capable of implementing a Double Exp Weekend on its own, without help or communication with Hamelin(the developer)? I'd just like to know if this was possible.
If you're not allowed to reply to that, Phibes, then you can just say so :D

Well i agree wit doki and deo, ive been here since ws first came out and all we had was 1 class, baldy map was our last map, and nameless spamming in pokola village for mentees. xD ( found out later wat benefits that had lol) im a dedicated player and ill be patient. Star if u really r a fan of outspark games then ull understand having to "wait" outspark usually delivers and im happy wit their service. Gmphibes came out to us and informd us wat was going on~ and how long did that take? ... yea thats wat i thought... point is be patient and quit yelling to close the game if u dont like it .. leave .. easier to drop 1 person the take out an entire game. Im staying put and im contuning to recrut ppl ~ 7 friends and 4 famliys members now play ws cuz of me. ( i feel bad cuz they really nubby but hey we all start somwhere xD ) wat have u done star? nuthing but complain. get out and do sumthing productive instead of hiding on the forums.

Notice how chii attacks me for saying I work in a development company.
Uh what happened to that event you hosted? You failed to achieve any long term results..(Well you did by wasting your money and "temporarily" boosting the population?) [Fyi, I was a GM/Co-admin of another game too]
And then she states that she has experience. But didn't she just attack me for saying that I did?
Anyway though what you said is right.... (cough it was explained by me and many others on this forum,
And yet star needed it explained again. So are you calling star stupid? o.O
Good job, you have a BA in being intelligent, well I have a masters using common sense and reading)
Hmm so basically, because you suck at common sense and reading you had to go to school an extra two-three years for it? Lawl ... that's not hard to believe.
It can be presumed the developer company of WS has abandoned OS. Moreover the proof is the lack of updates of this game and the repetitive message of server maintenance in the patch notes.
See, this is where you start talking about stuff you don't know about. Developers can't just abandon a job if they're in contract with Outspark, which they most likely are. Likely scenarios are 1. Outspark told the developers to halt progress, 2. Developers have hit a road block in fixing a bug or testing a patch, or 3. Developers have a lot on their plate and keep pushing back the date.

Since when is being defensive surrendering?
I hadn't started anything with you, but if you want to flame me chii go ahead. Get your topic closed. You think you were honored by a GM responding to your thread? Sounds like he just got tired of your whining.
