Forums @ Prydwen.net

In response to the comments about sticking to one realm/server I disagree. It isn't hard to maintain characters on multiple servers. I've only been playing Alb on Merlin about 6months (Much less than that discounting weeks I didn't play due to holidays and such) yet by the end of this weekend will ...

I'm assuming GOA haven't commented on any of these fora because of the vote going on at present. Fair enough. However, would it be out of order for someone to post technical details of how clustering works and why it would be irreversible?

[quote="Sharkith"]IMO a merger is always painful and to be avoided especially in a game. No point having one server with a lower combined population overall - the move would be a serious mistake. I would have thought the decision would be based on how many players would leave rather than the number ...

In fact the second best option would be to move Pryd & Excal to Mythic and allow us to become part of the US system, but that won't happen either

This is probably THE best solution long-term for everyone, but as you say, can't see Mythic wanting to do that.

oh and yeah, we are given a PvP server and mythic have even released guidlines on how to change the primary UI language on german and french servers, so we are really allowed to play them all. Sure you can change the UI, but I really don't know enough French and German to be able to communicate wit...

well, someone smart would just create alts now and be able to play them when clustering arrives (IF IT arrives lol), and anyway, its a good thing that you cant play the same account successivley as mentioned before, it will stop x realming and RR blabbering etc. Yes I am getting boring. hib/pryd an...

Only if you already have alts on both servers.

Am I getting boring now?

Ok, let me put it another way... does clustering represent better value for money?

Don´t matter to me though, I only need one server :P /sigh You may only need one but you're paying for two, and hence the ability to use two realms. Under clustering you would effectively only get one relam so the cost per realm doubles. You won't see your subs cut in half because you can only acce...

Just done a quick count - the US game has 18 english language servers plus Pendragon (test server). We have 2 plus camlann. Clustering 18 servers is a different ball game to clustering 2. There are currently 9 clusters on the US servers - we would have 1. The US clusters are: Bedevere / Igraine / Tr...
