I just want to say one thing, TLA is no savior it has been around for a while and the main thing that changed was translation from Russian to English. Sure, the new features were introduced as well, has it changed the game concept and overall fun in the game? I really don't think so. Even before the last update, the tutorial location was completely in English, yet almost no players from 2238 were massively playing it.
I remember when FOnline Tactics had been launched, there was almost nobody left on 2238. Please notice that both FOT and TLAmk2 are very different from 2238 yet it does not represent any problem for gangs to migrate. We could say a gang is like a cell, it acts as a whole. Every time there is something new people want to try it out. However, after some time certain amount of people realize that they in fact liked the old game. I've spoken to several players who moved from 2238 to TLAmk2 and it's not a secret that some of them would gladly come back to 2238, if their gang moved there, if there were players to kill...
I don't mind open discussion on adopting good things from TLA, but don't make random statements like "add this feature from TLA to 2238 completely" or "TLA is now better than 2238". I don't want another TLA. Personally I don't like TLA clones and probably I never will, but I don't mind people who do. People who post here would in fact like the game the way it is, but they wrongly assume that when the game gets more updates, people will come back. People who truly enjoy TLA just play there without a need of posting here.
From unbiased look you all have to see that 2238 improved a lot. Honestly, right after wipe the game was really shitty (sorry devs, I had to say it) I couldn't even play it due to amount of bugs. Nowadays it's pretty much stable and totally can offer a good pvp. If you really want to have fun on this server, bring your friends, raise server population, form a faction, start doing pvp... Whining about wipe/TLA features/dumb devs/xyz won't help.
