Today I am starting a new campaign on the forums in favor of continued development of Horizons by EI Interactive.
The reasons are as follows...
Unlike many other games, HZ needs to continue to develop. In game mini events by world masters, while fun, will not hold the attention of the current player base for long. Most here are mature players willing to spend time developing their characters and enjoy the complexities of the adv/crafting systems. They are not flash in the pan players like you see in other games. If development is not continued, fixes will not take place and long standing issues will drive off many. Even simple error fixes in the Database will need skilled and driven management and programming.
To that end, I would urge EI stongly to hire someone to do the job that Smeglor was doing. I would further urge them to let us know when they have someone in place, and try and give us an idea of what the plans are for HZ.
Continue Development of Horizons... and the future looks bright!
