While I don't want to see them implement sliders again (Unfair to incoming players who don't have spreadsheets with real numbers while the dedicated alpha testers like me do), for the particular stat of HoT and DoT a slider is actually more functional. Using simple recipes DoT/HoT values aren't...

Bump. We absolutely need another decimal place or two of information to properly test any ingredients affect on HoT or DoT

Yes. Some people are going to choose to play the game despite ping issues. But if you split it down NA/EU lines then 90%+ of people who see a significantly better ping in one location or the other are going to opt to play on the server that gives them the better ping. There's a huge difference...

MO1 was a single server. If you have multiple servers then very few NAs will choose to play EU and very few EUs would choose to play NA. Just like Darkfall most people I played with on NA were NA. So any existing guilds of mixed NA/EU would get split for the most part. If it's a multi-continent...

Splitting guilds is going to suck hard for existing guilds if it's multiple servers. If it's multiple continents people will find ways to make it work if playing with their guild is important to them.

I imagine the Tindrem bank may be huge with a ton of tellers. There will almost surely be major crowding issues there otherwise. I don't think this will be a big issue in the towns or if it is, it will be a very temporary release day issue.

It's interesting how dramatically different this poll is from the other one. It may have to do with posting time though since I see the other poll lost a lot of ground during EU timezone.

I think they will do so something. That poll has roughly 80% support. They clearly demonstrated they will listen to resounding customer feedback by delaying release. I think the idea of a single server but with different host locations depending on what continent you are on would be a solid...

Yeah I'm kind of coming to the conclusion they should just do an NA continent, EU continent, and Oceanic continent. These should all be part of a singular server that allows travel between various parts of the map. It's just that if you are on the NA continent the servers hosting your continent...

If they did the multi continent idea one good thing is given how that doesn't truly separate the population the way multiple servers would they could even do an Oceanic continent. I'd probably make that one smaller than NA/EU based on how much smaller population data suggests it should be. But...

I've noticed you've given constructive feedback on a few of my recent posts and I do appreciate the efforts to give my ideas a fair shake even if we disagree on a hell of a lot. I also think what I said is accurate though. When we both agree on something it's a good indication to SV that it...

It's settled then. When HYM and I agree on something that means it's an acceptable compromise the whole community will get behind. Take note SV. XD

Making EU and NA server continents would be a good idea. Those continents absolutely should not be Myrland and Sarduuca if it's done that way though. Just make a continent to the east of Myrland that is functionally equivalent in terms of landmass and resource value. Both continents should have...

High reflex vs. low reflex is essentially the same concept as latency forgiving builds. I'd say it's accurate to say in about 100% of situations that a difference of 100-200ping will have a significant detrimental effect on your ability to play a build that means it's a high reflex build, and...

The game promises on its front page a single persistent server. However, 80%+ support of something even in a forum poll is... sufficient support to justify changing any front page promises. And I say that as someone opposed to splitting the servers. I believe though, all good decisions should...

Making melee less twitchy to compensate for ping is obviously ticking off many higher twitch melees. But magic was traditionally more hitscan based and dominators/tamers traditionally took very little skill at all. People looking at those roles don't even want the twitch skill of them raised...

Yeah, I'm not going to be playing melee. With or without 2 servers. I have 160 pings but I also hate super breakneck-paced games if I'm playing on a LAN with someone in the same building. MO1 had ping neutral roles. They were promising those ping-neutral roles when they started selling copies...

I'm talking huge oceans spanning between massive continents so that when you're out doing trade and piracy the world feels as alive on the water as it does on land. Complete with underwater dungeons and stuff out there waiting to be discovered. Yes, and if the game doesn't have the population...

Game pops work on a reverse exponential curve with new spikes every time there is a big content drop. What I mean by that, is whatever we have on launch day is likely multiple times the players we'll have 30 days after the launch. Even if the game is pretty successful. Your one exception to...

I think that if this game reaches its maximum potential, it would possibly reach the population to maintain two lively servers with all the continents / naval combat etc. I think anything more than that would require a resurgence of interest in the entire MMO genre. Realistically I think more...
