Morning ladies,
the last months have not been very successful. Bohemia takes some time with content and bug fixing (This patch could have been done by me with paint.exe) so that big streamers are not playing Dayz anymore. Oldschool is in the top 10 of world Wide server ranking!
No streamers, no interest in the game.
No interest, no playerbase.
You could count big servers which are closing one by one. UKA was the last of the big servers who shut down his Hardcore/1p server. But there where a lot before. And not small servers.. We are talking about UN which existed for ages. Grumpy Old Gamers.. Which where also big.
In the end there is only 2 remaining hardcore servers. Dayz Underground , which is mainly supported by bohemia, has Admins as moderators on Reddit and according to rumours also moderates the official Dayz Forums.
And Oldschool in his 3rd year. Independent, Liberal, with hard working staff to make your game experience unique.
But in the last few months we never reached the 118,13 Euros of donations we need to keep the server up.
Yes we have some savings but if we continue like that, I don't know if we will make it to BETA.
All the Old Oldsmobile who where the base donators are not playing anymore and the randoms who are playing now on Oldschool since the server is not whitelisted are not really into the community and not interested in keeping it up.
Will Oldschool go down in a few months?
Its up to you.
And that's why I said in the beginning.... "The last months have not been very successful."
