Are we far away from server merge?

The markets have tanked on my server. Nothing sells b/c all expect a merger soon.
Please work overtime to make this happen sooner rather than later. Players are continuing to fall off as well since noone wants to play an mmo on a empty server where crafting and the marketplace are such an integral part of the experience.

Somewhere December according to the rumors. Whether that is far away or not, is subjective. There is no formal timing stated as of yet, so rumors need to be taken with a grain of salt obviously.

But was not this world set setup there for this particular reason. To be able to “quickly” merge servers ? I know 1 month is not a particular long time in computer programming, but it seems weird AGS did not foresee this as every computer game experience this. Especially New World since they VERY quickly managed to create NEW worlds in the initial days of release to accommodate for initial player rush.

Been holding out on transferring until merges but seems like they have no idea when that’ll be, should already be happening. Guess its time to just use the transfer token.

Server mergers have already been used during beta. So we know the possibility to do it right now, is there. There are however probably just some final things to check, to ensure everything in this works smoothly. Things which came up as issues in individual transfers as well for example. You’re going to be wanting to be really, really sure that something like this works in a live environment before doing it.

Secondly, they may also be taking time to discuss on what happens with things like territory control. Maybe they’re reconsidering the way it happened during beta. In beta, it was a matter of the companies who were on the server which was being merged away, would get some financial compensation. I believe the figure was 100k.

But with some companies having held territories for weeks on end now, in good status, their investment is obviously higher than 100k. How do you deal with this? What if on both servers there are long standing companies?

Obviously you’re going to want to find a way to deal with this which is fair to all parties involved. And I can imagine that something like that takes some time to come up with a solution to.

I would think that any company holding a territory at a merge would immediately go into conflict with the company holding the same territory. If multiple servers are merged at once, the top 2 company with upgrades go into conflict. The defender is the company with the highest level of upgrades. If this was announced it would help, currently we are seeing company not bothering with maintaining their city because they anticipate a merge.

I have been in merge situations in other games, the server always seems lagged after a merge, overall quality never seems to recover, I always end up making a new character on a different server.
