Server Xfers

[Magus]

I know its early access, but Ermos server is essentially dead. LFG window during peak hours has at most 8 people meaning its hard to ever find a group. I know its early access, but any chances of server mergers or ability to transfer in the future?

Good point. DevOps needs to do everything possible to keep people interested... imo

Been thinking the same thing. It's time for server mergers. I chose a medium pop server that for the first few weeks was plentiful groups, plentiful lfg. But for the last 2 weeks, LFG has been dead even on primetime and weekends. To try alts I have to remake them on the most populated server now. Can't have empty and low pop servers in a group-mandatory game.

it's a shame you couldn't create your character then connect to any server. i probably would have gone another 100 or 200 hours if i had a fresh group of people to be running with

No server transfers please. That crap ruins the community aspect of games. If people want to change servers they can relevel.

in case you missed the point, the community aspect of the ermos sever is already ruined

Not only does this affect the integrity of the local community but it can also ruin the global economy. Remember that recent ban wave regarding duplicating items and coins? That could have been more widespread if some of the major perps moved to different servers and distributed their ill-gotten gains; even some innocent (yet naive) players were caught-up in the ban wave because they accepted "counterfeit" (duplicated) items and coins. Also, you know those guilds on some servers that perma-camp spawns for valuable items to sell? They would not only spread across all servers but the prices of some prized items would raise after they secured a global monopoly on their source.

Free transfers between servers is a BAD IDEA.

i submit. how about an upgrade in servers then. what mmo you know can only handle 500 dudes / server

This is EA buddy... just trying to keep the game alive at this point. (In case you didn't notice) Maybe once the game is complete you will a good point /thumbs up

Fine. Maybe it's time for the first wipe.... then merge all servers with fresh start. What do you think?

I laughed a bit reading this post and then seeing the perma-camp thread directly under it https://steamcommunity.com/app/3107230/discussions/0/594014205761318001/

Less servers, more shards.

Well I don't want them on my servers either. :P I'm going to assume people stopped playing there for a reason.

The best ones. The ones where you can learn the names and people you play with.

Hell I can't stand cities IRL. Why would I want to play an MMO with the population of one? I live in a town of 500 people. I love knowing my neighbors. I've never seen more miserable and alone people that people living in cities.
