What is your thinking on this subject do YOU think goonzu is gonna take a big dive and be no more?

at the rate its going its going down hill

Seems they don't care about the game beyond what money it can make to fund other projects.

With the constant lack of customer support and general attitude of not caring about the players, I don't think we have much longer to play.

It's unfortunate. I really liked this game until recently.

I can understand everyone sentiments, however from where im sitting, things seem pretty much the same as always...

maybe i'm oblivous or not nosey enough to find out.

You know what will happen if GoonZu goes down? You'll live. And move on to another MMO, or maybe something more productive. ohnoes.

but what about this forum? what to rename it? would be cool if we could keep tabs on ppl... I like some of you ppl... in a non-gay way of course.

I liked alot of people here also. But If game goes down I will just lose interest in the forum as well.

You could always play other free shiet on.... ADDICTINGGAMES.COM Z0MGWOW!

rofl. seriously.

There's like 5-6 people on this forum, and 95% are disgrundled for one reason or another (or in some cases, no reason).

This poll is useless, if it can't give you a real idea of the answer your looking for, what in the world is the point.

Not to offend anyone, there's nothing wrong with being all "hooray, down with ndoors!" :)

I just found this poll a complete waste.

I'm the lonely no vote, but I'm wrong.

Every game comes to an end, therefore the inevitable answer is yes.

Whether that's 6 months or 10 years from now...who knows.

I'm not sure why you keep coming back here in the first place, shadow. It's like your only goal here is to say "GoonZu sucks and I was right all along."

I won't vote yes, but I didn't vote no. A week ago I would've voted yes. But not today, oh no. It's still got a fighting chance believe it or not, some changes are on the way.

Time will tell if it's too little, too late, though...

EDIT: Yes, this is me being optimistic. Surprise!

Now it's not 95% anymore, you did that just to make me a liar :P

Well I voted "Yes" if I voted "No" I'd be a liar.. :/

If I left this game Id just go back to FPS games, no more MMOs

I'm disgruntled for no reason, because being chaotic is so much fun :lol:

Maybe you can tell everyone why towns went from having 100 people in them to having less than 50 in every town some only having 30??

What was your point in the first place to posting this trying to get something out and not quiet sure on how to say it Ricy!

If you want a real Idea on how the server is doing just go have a look in the info on hwo many residents each town has that might give you somewhat of a clue on whats going on. Include a few who only log on now 1 time a week to stay active in town whats your brilliant answer to that??

Not every game I could name a few that are still around doing very strong after 7 years!!

And isn't goonzu sapose to be free game for life? LoL!

There's an old saying. "Nothing's free."

Think about it. How much of what you consider free, actually is?

I LOVE YOU TOOOOOOOOOOOOO SNOOKIE POOOOOOOOOOO



i also believe goonzu is goona die i mean its not as fun as it used to be and thankfully i got one of those things ummm oh yes a life.. so im not on much or at all but since havocs gone no1 will put in the work and effort he did to TRYYYY and make everyone happy. so yes in my opinion this is the fall of goonzu lol

Keeping in mind that your demanding I answer for things, while I never argued against your tyrade. My point, was clearly, that your poll will show a very one-sided win on this particular forum and the 10 ppl here. And it will mean absolutely nothing. But we all know that anyway.

However, the average per town is more than 50. Some have 35 or so, and some ahve 90. I'd guess the average is around 60 - 65. There are really only a hand-ful of towns less than 50 that I know of. (this is of course not counting Ankaran).

you say "Less than 50 in EVERY town".......that's highly exaggerated. Unless you count the alts. Then there might be only 15 real ppl on most towns LoL.

And yes, we now have less in each town. But we also have twice the number of towns that we once had.

Is there a dramatic drop in the number of players?......I really have no idea. It's possible that there is...or isnt. Ndoors definately needs to work on their influx of new players. People will inevitable come and go and get disgrundled....I've been around long enough to know that's just simply how it goes.

Those that need gms to hold their hands all the time will get upset and leave, and others will come in their place. I believe that their core foundation of players are mostly in-tact, and like lep said....things could in-fact get better.

And no I didn't have anything I had trouble saying....this poll is still worthless <shrug> it just is. Polls are generally used for getting an idea of how the majority thinks on a certain subject. There's like 10 ppl here and we all know what the majority will vote already ;p

The reality is that the complainers making noise on the forum are an extremely small part of the community in luminary....like .0001%. You almost have to not take them into consideration at all (no offense)

I'm straightforward to a fault sometimes., I rarely have trouble saying what I mean :)

But yes, the advertising for goonzu seems to be terrible. Without good marketing any project is on a path to failure. I surf mmo fan sites, forums etc, on a regular basis and I see ads for online games by the hundreds it seems. I've never seen an advertisement for goonzu or luminary.

If they don't learn to attract new players, they'll probably be in trouble, regardless of the changes they make. But I'll be around to see how it goes

The forum will live as long as the game does.
If the game dies and disappears, well there won't be a need for this anymore.
I'm sure there will be other ways for you guys to get in contact.
I'm not saying I'd shut this down completely, probably bits and pieces of it.

You mean it hasn't gone down already?

I'd probably go on with life (already am) but I'll really miss the flame wars around here.

As for the question, and the term "flop" being used to describe the game's demise, I voted "no" and I'll tell you why.

Throw aside what you know and use simple logic!

The most common perception is that GoonZu is funding other games like Wonder King and Atlantica. I do not wish to offend anyone, but this can not be completely true. If GoonZu is pulling in enough money to not only support itself but make other games possible then regardless of how "uninteresting" GoonZu may be, it is still pulling in good money then why would they give up on it? makes absolutely no sense at all. I think the status of this game's existence is ok for the time being. If GoonZu was NDOORS first major project, then it is naturally going to be responsible for funding other games. If those other games dont manage to support themselves and just suck away GoonZu profits, then what sense does it make for THOSE games to exist? They have to advertise, promote the games and give them a chance to float. GoonZu has already proven it can support itself if it's funding other games development. obviously, logic. duuuh.

As for the customer service nonsense, I dont see what the problem is. A few bad experiences here and there, A GM team who is somewhat limited in its power (and we know this, so why do we keep asking them for miracles), and the rest of the people just riding the crybaby bandwagon.

get widdit, mon!

erm miniclip.com ftw lol.

I give this game 2 more years before it dies completely.

i already know a few people who are quittin lum for wonderking as for NDI its just retarded unbanning people because they use the item mall they're money hungry thats all they care about they don't care if this person scammed this person and long as the person who scammed buys gcoins ndoors doesn't give a crap.. it makes no sense at all for non gcoiners to play its not fair to them. they stay banned and gcoiners are just let go.. not to mention you pretty much have to use item mall to do anything in the game like get married have a family yada yada yada. not everyone wants to spend all there cash on a dumb game thats gonna fail within the next 2 years

thankfully my post wont be deleted here cuz they keep deleting them on the main fourm :P

I'm starting to think you don't like the banning proccess ;)

Lol I havn't been to that site in about 4 years XD
A great time-killer. I remember the George Bush dance arobics flash game lol

hell nah the GM's went soft :( punks

We're all a bit squishy on the inside.

lee went soft HAHAHAHAHAHA


* wonders if anyone is thinking " That's What She Said " *

or in lees case " That's What He Said " :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

i kidddddd :P :ph43r:

Somebody found their old B.O.B. I reckon.

You'll figure it out.

Should I move this to off topic?

I'll move you to "Off Topic", you smarmy bugger.

The sheamy inner-workings of banning and un-banning players, requiring players to pay marble (or as one player who is reputed to be full of crap anyhow said: CASH), is something that nobody wants to have happen to them. I personally do not know the facts pertaining with the individual situations but I would have to ask :

"what the frig did you do to get banned in the first place?".

Upon recieving the BS "oh-me-so-innocent" answer, I would have to say.

"Good job, you stupid moron."
"Don't lie to me, you parasite."
"Thanks for helping screw up the game."

And finally: "Of the 1% of actual honorable people on the internet, I don't think you're one of them. frig off with the lies."

My only regret would be that the majority of these individuals were able to be re-instated into the game at all! At least there's a price tag on it, wether paid at the time of re-instatement, or in advance through the retarded over-purchasing of Gcoins. Yeah I guess you get some small privilege when you've paid the way for yourself and 10 other freeloaders. Life is life!

MY ADVICE: STOP BLAMING YOUR "COUSIN" FOR WHAT YOU DID!!! Own up to your stupidity and you might still have some honor left at the end of the day.


And no, it's still not flopping. I love the way you people speculate. I dont care who told you what, I dont care how cool, or hot you think you are. no proof, no facts.

Please stop wasting your time, people who've played the game properly dont have to worry about this anyways.


DUH


EDIT: yeah my ranting. This practice of NDOORS comes under fire quite often. I do not either disagree with it, or see its relevance to the issue of the game's success. Businesses are created primarily to make money and the same TOS that people love to quote is now being ignored out of convenience. To have the option of returning to the game under ANY conditions is actually a privelege and blabla rant some more. Bottom line: Two completely different topics. GoonZu is here as long as you're buying.

Blackup.
Redundancy is redundant.

with luna being xfered to wonderking that leaves the 2 newest GM's the only GM's which naisu doesn't do a damn thing zed trys to do as much as he can now i say luminary wont make it to next season.. its gonna fail

No offense, although I'll probably offend.

You guys are blathering out of the wrong end really. I'm going to have to agree with Grambo here.

Sure they moved Luna....did you think Wonderking was going to GM itself?

NDI also put up an ergent need for a game master as is taking applications on a site I won't bother naming.

My point is...you guys are jumping all over speculations like a fat kid on a snickers bar.

The player base is a bit down, Atlantica and wonderking and Aeria.....took some. But there's no reason to think it won't return...in fact those very games that took some of the player base will increase the exposure of NDI games and could cause faster growth and new blood here.

Could it fall? Sure. But nobody knows.

Luna leaving is just part of ndoors expanding, and she is not a part of Luminary, she is an NDI employee.

Some of you guys are hitting the panic button just as hard as you can...LoL for what? ....You guys need a rubix cube or something :)

okay well first off they're gonna have to train new GM's and only keeping the 2 newest gm's is retarded havoc was the one who taught everyone what to do.. who cares if they put out a urgent request they should of hired someone new for wonderking or moved one of the new GM's over..
i dont even play luminary no more but i did spend 3 years of my life on this game ( i know right) all the money people spend on this game just to even think about it coming to an end is just crazy.. and its like NDI doesn't even know what they are doing.

if they cared less about money and more about the players they could really make it as a gaming company. but honestly you can tell they only care about the money when you look on fourms everyone complains about the game no1 ever says anything good about it anymore..

is it worth it? nope

GM training, heh.

Okay, I get that you personally don't like their customer service. I also get that at least 10 ppl constantly gripe that the company wants to make money (duh).

But those same 10 ppl were griping when I got here like years ago. I suppose a few are new.

I'm not sure why Luna is an issue at all, we'll have gm's makes no difference who they are...they are just employees.

(You want the tall guy or the short guy to make your big mac......uhhhhhhhh)

:)

but heh, I have breaking news for you. All games want your money, and if they are nice to you.....it's so you'll give them money :) And they'll care about you as long as it makes them MONEY....I don't mean to wake you up but well it's time.

Money, money, money!
Must be funny,
In the rich man's world!

All the things I could do,
If I had a little money!

you're a dork
