I have tried, really. I have encouraged friends to stick with the game, I have discouraged people who I thought were overly hard on the game, but there is only so much you can do.
Currently there are less than 2 thousand people watching this game on Twitch, this is a far cry from the early days before you blew it.
2x weekends are not getting people back to the game, the only way I can see that you might get people back is a complete wipe and a fresh start. You stop hackers yeah, but you don't stop the advantage they gained prior to spawning in a plane or whatever else. You still don't comment on the possibility of OCE servers despite the numbers saying it would work. That would get a hell of a lot of people back into/and into the game.
For now, I idly sit and wait for the game to completely die on me, or for you to wake up and start making smarter choices.
