Future of FL

[Pollux]

I just don't see how any of those "things we're looking at" bring any players on the server.

Getting people on isn't the core issue, it's retaining them. We have an extremely low new player retention rate which we hope to resolve with our guide system and interaction system. The other updates are focused on building upon feedback we got from the economy update or removing game mode limitations, which in turn allows us to do so much more. Things like the inventory refactor may not seem significant, but they actually unlock a ton of possibilities for us that simply wasn't possible before such as vehicle inventories, uses on items and so much more.

Ultimately there isn't any guaranteed way to "bring players on", the best way for us to achieve that is to ensure we have a competitive and fun experience compared to other servers, which gives new players a reason to stick around and older players a reason to continue playing. New players are ultimately the biggest goal for us here.
