Honestly, i think what kills subspace is indeed what X'terr said. People who download the client, get a list of a bunch of no pop zones. And pretty much they get stuck with choosing between TW, EG, and Chaos. And most of them go to TW since its got the most population. Then, they get to TW, get in a wb and realize how slow (what they think as a whole) "Continnum" is; since the majority of the new players dont know that all zones have different gameplay/map/setts. Then they quickly uninstall the game, and never go back to it. OR they keep playing TW until they get good, and then you have the people that we have now, who dont know who people like Polix or Ghost Ship is. They live in their own little TW world, where nothing else exists but TW forums and site. This is by no way an insult to TW or any other zones, im just !@#$%^&*uming this is how it goes down. I wish we could make it so as soon as you download the client, theres a big message that says "CLICK DOWNLOAD ZONES: EVERY ZONE IS DIFFERENT, TRY THEM ALL". A quick and easy/effective way to get players to try out more zones, in turn might just have them stay.
