Great Hunt - Server Merge | Future of the game as whole. - Bitefight Forum (2025)

New generation of gamers have way better options for gaming these days than us and the options we had during 2008-2009.

THEY DONT CARE ABOUT GREAT HUNT, ONLY GREAT HUNT IS EVENT WHEN WE CAN ATTACK MORE PLAYERS THEN 3 OR 4 .

SADLY, ADMINS DONT KNOW NOTHING, AND WHEN U ASK COMUNITY MANAGER HE DOESNT KNOW ANYTHING ALSO ?

WE WANT GREAT HUNT...

Hello to all active players in this game, is it possible to ask those who hold the game if they intend to make any changes regarding the big hunt and the merging of servers, I think only this would revive the game

Greetings community,

Probably my last reply/thread here since it's kinda pointless at this point to tryhard more for some QoL changes judging by Gameforge's actions.

It's 2022 and everyone knows that text-based games like Bitefight are a dying genre,not to say dead already.

We're the last romantics/veterans/addicted,call us how you like that we keep spending time & money here.

Either you like it or not,there is no way a new player for example a 18 yo that will register first time and play here,like we did 10-15 years ago.

New generation of gamers have way better options for gaming these days than us and the options we had during 2008-2009.

So the current playerbase/pool is short and with literally no new 'blood' and that makes sense to me.

Ogame,another Gameforge's game,did some final server merges,at least the greek community few months ago (Not sure about rest),so i'm asking..

Why Bitefight cant follow with server merges?

Whats the point of having 20 servers which are 90% dead and not merge them,at least in a country level for start and then proceed into making an international one before the final shutdown?

Whats the point of keep spending money,buying premium gear,treasure chest etc if there are only 10-20 players active on the server?
That's a question i keep making to myself since the last 2 years i kinda play solo.

I know that Gameforge aiming on 'real' games @ Steam the last years and they've kinda abandoned the roots where they've started,the real og text based games like Bitefight.

But can someone tell them that they can profit a lot more if they only do couple of 'clicks' on their html server?

Game will feel alive after years,even if its only for few months untill it goes 'semi dead' again.

Where is the Great Hunt?We had a nice feauture to duel and last time it went live was months ago.

My treasure chest is ending in approx. 16 hours and im not gonna spend another dime in this graveyard.

Its sad that after so many years i'll have to go in my hide maybe perma. (Unless something happens).

Please can any of the last admins forward this thread to someone who is in a higher 'rank' in the company?

Bitefight and Gameforge's text based games in general have potential to revive as much as possible but we need the help of the company.

I'm talkin about simple merges or Great Hunt more frequently,not something super special like new talents-gear-clan castle upgrades etc.

Thanks for your time and have fun around.

You have a point, I been thinking about why they don't merge all US, MX, UK. MX, ETC... in 1, for example, .com, there are many players in different communities that are still active if they merge all countrys' plus, add the option of the GREAT HUNT between the 10 or 11 servers they open, this game will stretch more his remaining life and they will profit more $$

Currently, I am stuck in a dead server, literally playing alone

Okay, if we deal with that they won't invest any $ in those game for merging, the great hunt which is getting fixed since 2013.

They can just run one and once server with OLDEST version. No action points, so you can play the whole day. If you have shadow lord you can attack per 5 minets. If you don't 15 minets. Only 3 items, no talents, no aspects, no basic/bonus/chanse/- chanse. Real look into the hero. Just bring 2006-7y server. At least try that, since your priority after shutting down 3v servers was merging servers and the great hunt.

It's like that everywhere, because of the idiotic update the game lost its popularity a long time ago.

Yeah, i remember that updated... everything went to the trash. This dead game still have huge potential, they just need to start listening to the community that has been loyal for more than a decade

I entered the game for the first time when it still has that red screen, there were no Brazilian servers, clan wars took a week to prepare.

I myself didn't know anything about the game and I did a lot of wrong things.

I stopped and came back in 2007 on the old server 18 in Portugal, with a lot of help from friends and support team I understood this gameplay.

I was part of the old teething journal too. But I got discouraged after the merger of the old servers, in mid 2014 or 2015, before the merger I was the top 01 in PvP wins on the old server 18. I returned last year and invested my time in the new Speed servers, hoping to participate in the big hunt.

Today I only draw two accounts, the old server 18 in Portugal (now server 21) where I occupy the top 15 in pvp wins, and another embryonic account on the new server 37 in Brazil (top 01 in wins).

And I wrote all this here just to say I've never read so many truths in a single topic. You, deST, managed to simplify all the dissatisfaction and frustration of all of us "the old ones" into a single topic.

Each day that passes the game gets further and further away from what it once was and gets closer and closer to a certain future... The end!

The game today is but a shadow of what it once was. And at that time we didn't even have that many events, at most 4 a year.

We were a family made up of faithful friends.

Do you know why I keep going!? Because I'm naive!

I conclude by congratulating you for the beauty and courage of the post.

So let me understand.

Gladius getting this -> (Click the link) Gladius Server Merges 2022Ogame getting this -> (Click the link) OGame - Official Lifeforms Update 2022

So two games from same company (Gameforge) are getting major updates meanwhile in Bitefight you cant even add a minor update beside the occasional events we have per country?

What about the Great Hunt we had in the past?

Any news from Bitefight team?

Anyone there or busy counting to 10.000 ?

Sorry mate but there are more important things. Guess, who is next? we have to finish this counting to 10.000....

When will you learn?

You are wasting your time asking them to do this and that when in reality no one is reading.

A lot of people tried, we all created new threads asking about the great hunt and similar stuff like that for the game to be more live but nothing.

They dont care, isnt that clear to all of you?

They dont care about the game, about you, about your time you put it the game, about the tons of money you spent...they dont care about anything.

They just keep making pathetic excuses like we cant do this we cant do that, the new game version, the servers this and that, cant merge, cant do the great hunt bla bla bla...

All that time and all that cash wasted for NOTHING and theres NOTHING you can do about it, accept it and move on.

BiteFight is dead, end of story.

We got zero response from Gameforge when 90% +/- of all the players left the game in protest for changing the game. If somehow the majority of players that are still active deleted their accounts in protest, they would probably pull the plug. They had no problem doing that with the Tasnad servers, I even heard there were problems with the compensation promised to the Tasnad players.

They are laughing at our community who is still spending money on a dead game. Not all of us, some are in a place that don't need the newest gear to fight. Which brings me to this floating idea of an international server merge, which will make sure we kill the game ourselves. If I look at my own NL community, when our ten servers merged into one, it turned into a game of the survival of the fittest. With one side totally decimated because there were players not wanting to play with each other but instead destroy each other. I am sure this showdown has occurred in other communities as well. The boredom of some players even caused them to rebel against their own clanmates. Just to keep the game fun for themselves. What a sick joke.

Only if Gameforge thought of a way to make sure higher level players could buy items themselves, while being attacked 5 +/- times a day, I could see the idea of an international server merge work. There were many well thought-out ideas on the forum. But they haven't shown any interest these past years, they won't start now. I mean, why would they? They are still earning thousands of dollars every month while putting in zero effort in quality life changes for the players still active, like most games do.

Just my two cents, respect to those who are brave enough to voice their opinions of this forum, I feel the same way. But if Gameforge isn't going to make sure your community stays alive, we should try and do it ourselves. Even though it's not our "job", we can do so much to make the game enjoyable again, by making the two species work together, instead of this face-off where one side survives and the other side bullied into submission by deleting their accounts. But I guess you can trust somebody only that much. Not everyone wants to take the chance of waking up and seeing they've been looted, and their accounts turned into a piece of cr*p. It only takes one player to mess it all up, and we're seeing it now on the NL merged server, after years of peace.

Happy huntings.
