When II releases what do you think will happen to the U3 community? I believe that people won’t leave U3 straight away, and this is why:
As there will be less content in II than 3.0 at first, some survival players and roleplayers will stick with 3.0 until II has more content to offer for what they want.
As II will be more focused towards PvE than PvP, PvPers may stay with 3.0 due to it being more suited to what they want, kind of like how Minecraft PvPers stayed with the 1.8 version instead of updating to 1.14 (if you play Minecraft).
The final reason why people may stay with 3.0 is that they are just there for the game and don’t participate in the community at all, meaning that they somehow don’t know about II’s development at all.
Anyway that’s just what I think will happen. What do you guys think?
The PvP/SemiRP/whatever playerbase is still high, and UII prolly won’t facilitate those as well, with it’s more true RP (no kits/tpa/crap stuff) and PvE focus. UII will be great, and have a big playerbase, but U3 won’t die anytime soon.
I hope 3.0 won’t die but I don’t have any reason to come back to it except for nostalgia. I expect some things like roleplay and maybe even organized PVP to blow past what they were in 3.0.
As much as I hate seeing 3.0 die, that is the sad truth we are living in. There are barely any players in 3.0 already, Unturned II will either refresh the fan base and bring back people to both games or 3.0 will be even more dead at the cost of II having more players.
Unturned a.k.a. 3.smth will live independently. It has its own charm and is enjoyable in its own way. UII will be another game at all, and will have very different mechanics and conceptions from I. I can see ppl playing both games.
3.0 will likely become a community driven game along the lines of counter strike: source. How many people will stick around is unclear, but I don’t think 3.0 will completely fade away.
From my point of view, i think Unturned (3.x) will lost a small part of it’s community in favor of Unturned II.
Only nostalgic players will continue to play Unturned (3.x)
