Because as times gone on so has progression of resolution, people are more accustomed to better resolution then in the previous days when that’s all was offered so it’s just simply going back in time to them, I do get it for sure and it’s one of things I dislike but I enjoy the server so kind of don’t pay attention to it.
But I agree a change like that would bring more players imho Scorp is known for longevity on servers so that’s another plus side, all the servers now do cater for the resolution as using newer files but the only diff they only last few months and are super heavy on p2w aspects.
As the game is now there has been many updates since I last played and caters a lot more to the F2P players which is a great addition.
Maybe increasing the red size is a bit of a chore but need to look at long term, would it bring more new players, answer is yes.
Would it increase PvP in the game due to that improvement to files - yes
Downside to higher res, you can see more on the screen - not a big deal because it doesn’t allow you to hit further it just shows you on screen further
