As many of you may have noticed Vortex Wars is starting to die down a little bit. This is most likely an understatement, but i don't want to taint the idea i'm getting at. This is specifically a topic just to post about ANY ideas whatsoever you might have about reviving the game.
The only ideas i've thought of, are:
New Races (Although too many new races will ruin the strategic standpoint)
Maybe New Features? (No idea what, just maybe something to excite people)
Anything else?

Maybe we all go to Kong and FOG and post reviews on the game? I am now.

I Think that's one good idea for bringing people in, it brought me in, but do you think they would stay? Staying seems to be the problem, because just last week i wouldn't have considered the game dying, it happened so rapidly i don't wanna over react and find out tomorrow it's alive again;p

Count me in. We'll need Lopdo's support, though, if we want to pull off anything other than a really small scale. How about a Kickstarter?

what do you want to solve with kickstarter? it is for getting funds for your new projects, I am not sure it applies for VW as well

I was thinking about something along the lines of an "updated re-release".

If you make the new version let's say 2.0 and reupload it to places like armor games it would be on the front page again, where most people check their games out (That's how I found VW). A lot of players just don't know about it and I think that's the problem!

hmm... I never really considered making 2.0 version, it would require lot of changes to make it "fair". but I suppose if I added ranks, fixed xp calculations and add friends feature, maybe clans as well, it might be enough, what do you say?

Seems like plenty enough for me. All of those features are really waited for and could be considered SIGNIFICANT! Especially the Clan integration into the game.
