In this case it's not a matter of how clustering will affect RvR/PvE...I think its about the time it takes to be able to switch between the servers.

That and I think the fact whats the point paying £8 for bascily one server when he could pay the same on US (Mabye give or take abit i carnt rembmer the subs for it) and have a much wider varitey of servers(No need to have a time delay) and game types(Co-op,Roleplay) in the same language.

I will try clustering, But if i dont like it, I will probly just take a break from the game then go stalk bri by finding what servers his on and move to US

And I don't like the idea of restricted choice for english players. Think about this:

French: 4 servers - 2 clustered 2 unclustered = ability to play all 3 realms without penalty
German: 5 servers - none clustered = ability to play all 3 realms without penalty
English: 2 servers - both clustered = ability to play 1 realm without penalty.

Can't see the point paying for an unequal, reduced game option.

what is the point in another Uk server when we dont have enough people to fill two - even to half full.

because we have no choice in other realms.
simple

besides french and german only have 1k more players than us. 1k more players dont deserve 2 extra servers

They only got 1k more players than us? I thought their servers were capped all the time...

According to the Goa site, there are around 12k online atm of which 1.5k are on the English servers (2), 3.5k on French (4), 5.5k on German (5), 104 Spanish (1) and 750 on Italian (1) and 450 on Camlann.

It looks like you get 1 server per 1k people.

The Germans have half a server to few and we and the French have half a server to many each. This matches the clustering choices, the French and English speakers will have the number of servers reduced.

What is the point selling a three realm game to new english speaking players when they can only choose one realm?

Is this game going to become one where it is only played by the existing population and no new blood coming in?

If I was a potential new player, tell me what it's key selling points are after clustering.
