I never really played 2k1 before, always classic, so I decided to give it a whirl when it came out!

I do not read the forums or anything but from reading I guess there was a big push on the guys making it to release it public ASAP, etc. Well, bad idea. The forums are kind of a secluded group of folks from the population of all players. I jumped on the server and was pretty confused. There's not very good explanations of what to do or how to go about things. Nothing is coherent.

I learned how to do everything from players but that's because I knew people who I could get to help me. Massing didn't help, had to wait for friends.

New players are screwed.

So I made some money, joined a kingdom to RP. But none of the kingoms levels are even ready. I'm in Malenth, ready to participate to the fullest, but there's nothing even ready and no events to participate in. Have RPd some within our little group but that's it.

There's absolutely nothing to do. It's not fun to just press D for hours or hold down the key. That's actually fairly retarded. It's okay to have that for making money, but when making money is all there is to do, the server isn't ready in the least.

Awesome level development, layout, and overall design. Horrible execution thus far. I don't give the server a good rating IMO, just impressed by the craftmanship is all.

Please wait until it's REALLY ready to release. I can fully see why no one stayed, only the ones on the forums which isn't enough at all for a server to run full time.

edit: I realize that might have come across really negatively. The server is great overall for what IS completed. That's not what the problem is. What's done so far is A+ work. My issue with it, is that it feels as if it's not completed when I play. I just can't find enough things to do. And the lack of guidance for new players.
