What Should Feral-Heart Do With Registration?

[Azurain]

I really like the idea with registration being open a certain time of the week. Maybe then people can actually catch it open instead of checking for days or even weeks at a time.

If you're going to keep the registration, please open it on certain days a month like what Flight Rising does/did. Having it open on random times for an hour is pointless and troublesome for people who want an account to be honest.

I think it's fairly good as is now. The current system allows players from all time zones to have a chance at register. Though, some people can only come online for a short time severely decreasing their chance to get an account. Then it becomes a game of luck and it can take months before they can create their account.
I'd say maybe increase frequency of when you can register (like open registrations 3x a day at random) or increase the time frame wherein you can register (like 2x two hours at random). Much more than that is probably not necessary.

As Michen stated above. I think the way Registration is fine the way it currently is.
Since they opened it in December FH has had a mass flood of players join the game. I've seen many new people in the game introduce myself and it's not different on the forums.
With a few tweaks here and there some problems could be fixed but for now it's absolutely fine from my point of view.

Just throwing in a quick opinion, I know I'm a little late but being a new player and a night owl I support the idea of late night registrations

[A.P.S.]

When should staff maybe try to change registration to fit the currently winning option, by the way? It's been a while but I'm pretty sure nothing has changed despite the leading option.

I get it if staff can't do anything, but maybe they could try (if they haven't already) and consider the winning option?

Definitely do not keep it as is. Make an announcement saying it will be open on a certain hour during a certain day. So then people will know when it will open up and will not waste precious hours of their time waiting for the registration to open. I personally am not too fond the fact that the community is not let known about the time the registration opens, but that is just my opinion. But no, if it were to be changed, make it a certain hour during a certain day. That may work out quite well.

I think it's silly to bar people from joining the game. I'm sure any security threats have been long since passed now. I think it should be open all the time and closed with emergencies, but I also think it might be a good idea to open registration during a closed but set and publicly known period of time. It took me ages to register into this game because of this registration bar, almost six months because I had so much to do and every time I checked, registration was closed. I had almost given up until, to my surprise, registration was open. However, if whatever the cause of this was and is still an issue, then it should remain as it is now. It's still possible to register, it's just very, very hard. I can see the benefit and loss from all sides, really. And besides, if someone really bad was trying to get into the game, they could just get in like everyone else. Changing up registration doesn't do much against such relentless people.

Another thing, about opening it up at certain times or having it open 24/7. If we do open it up at certain times, then that would mean during those times the server lag in FeralHeart would be horrendous. However, if we have it open 24/7, while at first we would get a huge wave of people getting into and playing the game, the lag would eventually die down and settle out once people stopped registering naturally. It would also die down the other way, but it would take much, much longer. I'm now starting to lean more towards keeping it open at certain times because of this, as after the registration period is done, the lag would be gone, and we could get back to our merry ways.

Hey, I like your idea! It would defenitely work to get more people on the game.
But note that the more people on the game, the bigger the lag, and crashes.
The server can't handle so many people. There's a reason that the staff took the 24/7-timed registration down, a long time ago, and randomized the opening times!

If 2000 people began being active in the game, there would be many complaints and stuff like that, because tons of people would crash.

If the server were made stronger (meaning; to handle more users online: thousands of users online), then your idea would've probably been taken into account. ^^

To those who still question about the registration openings, I highly suggest that you read this long pile of information and F.A.Q here: [Link]
