[Wilus]

Thank you for clarifying that. Guess I'll be passing on this game afterall.

[Angryfist]

they kind of waited to long to put in PvE servers

So it's just going to be Russian all day every day in global? I definitely don't feel engaged in the in-game community when the only time I see English is when a bi-lingual person answers a question to an English speaker. I'd had this game on follow for a while, and when I saw they had a PVE server and it was on sale, that sold me. I've been putting a lot of time into the game in the couple days I've had it, and its going to be a serious sink-hole for free-time with how long crafting takes, so I'd hoped they would put just a LITTLE bit more forward for their global audience than simply placating them with a peaceful- localized- server. :/ I guess I need to learn another language to enjoy the community in this game. >.>

I can tell you, there are English speaking people on that server. With that said, they likely feel similarly; overwhelmed by the engagement of the Russians in the chat. You are, however, speaking into a very important aspect of the business side to this project which has lacked since the release. There is a disconnect in the line of thinking between the developers and the rest of the world. They thought and had said people would lose interest in a PvE environment, so they had to plans to create a PvE server. Yet, the PvP servers have been emptied, in a large part, to fill the PvE server. People are even dealing with the lag and the crowded-ness to enjoy the safety of PvE. Yet, many are now deciding whether or not the negativity that comes along with all this, and more, is worth it.

It is a very involved game and has the potential to be a cool way for friends to reach goals and beat bad guys. There are just so many ways a proverbial wrench may end up disrupting these efforts.

With that said, this is one of the biggest efforts of the devs to help the community get, in small part, something they want. So, I appreciate it.

I will openly say that I have yet to take part in the PvE server. The location is way too far, latency too high, server too packed, If they put one on the West Coast or East Coast, maybe. I liked someone's idea of having private servers run by players while official servers could still exist.

I'm not having a problem with latency and I'm from the states but man is the server packed. I just got my materials to raise my domain to medium and it took like 30 min to find a place to put it. I had to pick it up and search every inch of the map to find a space because every few feet there is a medium domain or someone with multiple accounts, You can tell because they might have one domain surrounded by 3 full medium farm domains lol. I can't for the life of me find iron. I went to the iron area 3 times and spent around 20-30 min there running around each time trying to find nodes, but they always seem to be mined. Map is too small for so many people.

There is no iron on the starter island. However, iron is always available in the iron mines in the gorge.

So you will find it in the Iron Mines as stated.. The difficulty does not change the amount of Iron you get. After that, you can also find it in the chests at the end of dungeons. How ever you prefer to farm outside of the crowded open world and as your ability allows.

The current PvE server is just too full 75% of the beginner area is covered so mats don't even have a place to spawn. It took me over 2 hours to to get enough root seeds to even start farming.

That's intense.

The PvE server is just so full it is no fun at all. They basically repeated UO: Felucca at release, then Trammel as afterthought after much request. Felucca immediately emptied and Trammel got so full they (at least at UO) finally realized the errors of their ways and spun up copies. They have a nice game here in theory but they still don't get where the market lies.
