Where is FL lacking

[JoshZ]

What we're working on doesn't matter as FL has never and can't ever depend on updates to provide meaningful content. In the end it's an RP server which relies on players for stuff to do not updates. Updates are just a good way to give the server a boost as the server is fun while it has a lot of players and it has had a lot of players recently. We don't reveal what we're working on for a good reason and I doubt we ever will as saying so in the past has been a mistake. Unless we state otherwise, you should just assume we're not working on anything unless we release something and stop depending on updates because they are not a solution to anything.

they clearly are a solution lol you just release the wrong stuff all the time.

They're not and have never been, when has FL ever been known for its updates or gamemode? It hasn't because FL has always been behind in that regard. It's what players do on FL which makes it what it is, we can just supplement that with updates but we can't replace it. Events are a good example, the server was full with a queue during the recent prison event as that was something players were doing. If you believe updates are the solution you're just setting yourself up for disappointment and something you'll never be happy with.

you live way to much in the past. you think this community is big, when it really isn't anymore. people aren't pulled in by events. they might come on for a little bit to enjoy themselves whilst it's happening but it's about keeping that playerbase after. the fact that there is nothing new when they come back disappoints them. the same server and it's been that way for 7 years.

You're basing this off your own experience, the server population has been extremely good lately and would suggest things are going mostly fine even without any updates. You say players aren't pulled in by events yet we hit max players and a queue with one that people seemed to have enjoyed. It feels like there is a disconnect between players who actively play and those complaining on the forums, as we've obviously doing something right but this thread would make it seem otherwise. There's not much we can do to try keep a gamemode that players have thousands of hours in fresh, it's up to players to craft unique experiences and for some to take initiative in doing so.

read my message before you reply, i said you have people for the event but then don't keep the population.
