I'm interested to see everyone's point of view on what would happen if oasis were to release a F2P server.
How many people would start over for it?
How much fun could it create as well as how much backlash they may get from moderate to high spenders?
Would it be reasonable to have a entry cost to the server so it could be truly competitive without making oasis completely lose out?
I would love to see your thoughts on this
Backlash from spenders? Most paying players also have a pure f2p character in another server. I can't speak for all of them but I doubt any player would complain about a pure f2p server. Please stop treating paying players as the devil, they are not much different from other players and are required for any game to survive in the long run. Just as f2p are.
Or ont your suggestion it is impossible to implement. Not only it generates no money to Oasis, the paying options need tombe removed or else some players will spend. It's human nature. The server would be destroyed in all cross server events as well when competing against normal servers and 60% of events which are ingot related would not be applicable.
Bottom line, I would make a character in a heartbeat in such a server. But I know that won't happen ever.
Wait, f2p events? Does that exist? Oh you mean those ninja exam and survival trial mission, but extra seals never hurt anyone. What if you only have 9 seals and 9 fragments and yearn to draw 10 and you already recharged?
Who wants to go to a p2w server?
Human nature-people want to dominate
That goes against human nature because only a few in that p2w will dominate
Why would you spend if you can't get 1st place?
Just go to a normal server and dominate there
Really now? I seen threads like this on other browsers mmorpgs too many times. A free to play server is a waste of money for the company and won't gain anything from it.

It's usually from players who don't understand the game and are falling behind compared to their peers so they think a f2p server would allow them to catch up. Even if a server would exist, most likely they'll won't be at the top with the mindset that allowed them to fall behind.

I feel like you misunderstood my post, im well off on my server and have a good grasp on what i am doing, i said backlash they may get from bringing a server everyone will flock to after they spent so much to be on top of theirs. In no way was i treating them like the devil everything i was asking was hypothetical and i simply wanted to see how people felt about it
I see alot of hate form pay to win people here before the sever is even up. if anything the P2Ws would jump ship for the chance to be on top and have to play on a level field to everyone else would show they are only in the lead for being P2W and cause them to do more desperate things to get on top.
