New Lt and up server
Comments

I certainly wouldn't mind a LT+ server in each region (NA+UK).
We did a test once that didn't work out well in terms of usage but I think they set the restriction way too low so.. Another test with good levels wouldn't hurt.
I'm sure theres a server in each region that isn't being used much. -
I see about 40-60 Trainee-Master Sergeant for every 1 Second-LT+ I see hacking. This is Alpha tho not UK, I hear from my UK friends that high amount of hackers with Second LT+ ranks quite a bit.
Now tho it doesn't matter anymore. Ranking up is so easy with how many VIP weapon users there are. I'm getting 2,000+ GP and EXP a game from just piggybacking off them when I used to get 600-800 average before. EXP gain rate is 3 times faster then before, now instead of 3 months till Second LT it only takes 1.I certainly wouldn't mind a LT+ server in each region (NA+UK).

Considering the flaws with that test;
1. There was no mention of it to the player base at all, most didn't even know about it till after it was stopped. More players would of played it have they known it was a test server for what they been asking for.
2. Its rank was to low, most people were asking for Second-LT+, not Master Sergeant. At the time EXP was a good way to know how long players played, it took 3 months average for most players to reach second LT versus the 1 month for Master Sergeant. Most hackers get banned before reaching 3 months of playing on a account.
3. It was a UK server instead of a NA server, at the time most of the players asking for it were NA players and UK servers weren't yet filled with non-UK players yet. Why play a server with 140+ ping when you can play the server with a slightly less rank restriction with 40 ping?
4. It had NO GP bonus at all, why play in the Master Sergeant server when you can play the Staff Sergeant server and get bonus GP with the same amount of hacks and kick abusers?
It is like it was intentionally made to fail but still be able to say they tried to make the player base happy. -

Could we try again sometime this year and possibly make it open to all that are Lt and up? -

ofcourse in uk r two severs good for that, always empty becose all players high rank go on uk 4 becose there is an restriction for low rank(most hak) in that condition uk 4 is always full and i guess is lag. -
As Demoniite says, it's not entirely up to me.Could we try again sometime this year and possibly make it open to all that are Lt and up?
I can push for it but beyond that, the easiest way to show that we want it is replies in this thread. -
I'd love to play on a server that's LT+ only, but it probably won't happen.
Hackers would become a lot more apparent and the game would become even more unplayable for new players.
The only way this would work is if they managed to reduced the number of hacks significantly. -
Considering the majority of hackers get banned withing the first two months, if players move to those servers then alpha will be less inhabited thus only hackers would remain there. They'd get bored eventually or frustrated and would start to leave/stop playing.I'd love to play on a server that's LT+ only, but it probably won't happen.

True, and Dot did you find any similar threads? -

Here are a few. If you want more let me know.
Dot, I now know you are capable of giving out hugs...
I expect at least one a week for the foreseeable future. -
What the differance between Staff sergant and Lt?20k exp?I don't think its will change some thing
the difference is that less hackers in high ranks, also could mean more experienced game play and attitude, but mainly its less hacks in high ranks, or just make a server for honorable ribbon only players, now that is a better idea -

tbh I tend to see worse attitudes in higher rank players usually.
But I like the idea, Wouldn't be hard to implement and it would probably be beneficial... -
Isn't this abit dumb? You don't want to see anymore hackers? Well, right now they are mainly Master Sergeant and below, thought I have seen Majors hack. Think about it, if you don't see anymore hackers, who will report them? Jesus? They will eventually level up, then what? create more servers Captains and higher? Then more servers? It's pointless, face the hacker and report... My opinion.

i am not sure if the report system is functioning with no problems, never seen any major or higher hacking but even if it happens compare the percentage plus it would be easier to kick -

You are missing the point completely... If you are saying leave the hackers on the lower ranked servers whistle the high rankers, that usually report even if it's functional or not, that would lead to a surge of hackers levelling up to the point that they invade the new server and guess what the problem would still be there. If only the kicks were more effective or if people can identify a hacker ASAP then that would be fine, but people in this game are dumb. Apparently 3 headshots in a row equals hack... BASICALLY WHAT I AM TRYING TO SAY IS: it's like when you are cleaning your room, there is some junk that you put into the closest, one day that closet will overflow and BURST with the pile of crap you put in there. Just because you can't see the problem doesn't mean it's not there... -

low ranks usually get banned before they level up, and mainly these hackers give up on the game cos its pointless nothing to enjoy they just waste some time trying the hack also they dont own any vip weapon, i think it takes fair amount of time to reach major rank without vip weapons... also if honorable ribbon is required for server would be better
