Faction Cooldown Timers

Hello. Is there a way, when the servers go down for the patch Apr 4th, to consider clearing everyone’s faction swap cooldown timer? I am on the fresh start server Amarah (US East) and my company just swapped from Marauder to Syndicate for server health due to concurrent population for sub 500 during peak hours. The reason this decision was made is because our entire map is Green/Yellow and if servers are merged, we will likely merge with Seer, which is also completely Green/Yellow. I know that whenever servers merge, faction cooldown timers are reset. I am just asking to consider enabling this occurrence to happen when the servers go down for the upcoming patch to allow people to swap for the new content and server health, if they choose. At the end of the day, I just want to be able to play with my company instead of waiting on the sideline for 25 days while my faction cooldown expires. Given the state of most servers, I think this would be a welcomed middle ground as 60 days for cooldown is quite a long time. Thank you :slight_smile: !

Can you all help me out here? I just would appreciate if this question was atleast seen by the dev team, even if it gets shut down. Thank you!

This may not affect many people, but this would be such an awesome thing for a few!

@Fenne with dwindling server populations maybe the long timers that were initially put in place are not such a great idea. I understand that they were put in place for a reason, but now that players are shackled in place with unhealthy populations maybe it’s time to make a change. If the servers were above 1500 consistently and there were people abusing it then maybe it would make more sense. Between the stack of long cool downs for faction swap and then war cool downs there’s way too much time to be locked in spot.
