For example last night my company and I got fed up waiting for the merges, purple has 4 companies that are all highly active and during the hatchet bug and forced lag issues most of yellow and green transferred away.
My company was the last company that had active players in yellow and we left too, leaving behind a small amount of people that had transferred to the server to join while it was busy.
The toxicity on the server was getting so out of hand and now those players are stuck with all their time and effort, all their progress, and they canât do anything, there are no companies, no groups, no hope for them.
You guys broke elites, thereâs no way you intended for all the mages to become giant bullet sponges (seriously they arenât difficult they just hurt your fingers because it takes so long compared to everything else) broke the chests and war is so laggy on that server because the purple group is mostly from SEA that when you get into melee combat with them they just start teleporting away from you.
Why punish the people that are actively trying to play just because you canât work stuff out?
Iâm curious if we end up with two free transfers if we havenât used the first.
One would assume not no? Which is happening first; merges? or the opportunity to transfer again for those who have already?
Move on guys. Whatever they do will be too little too late.
So coz you got a few guys who is âstuckâ with a server transfer, you force more than 10.000 players to be stock on different small servers. but i guess you dont care about the people who cant even play the game properly duo to 2 low population on servers.
It would be such an easy fix for allot of people to let them transferâŚ

The other day a server had just 43 people on itâŚdepressing, we cap at around 300, and no one wants to go to war because companies cannot afford itâŚ

Their answer is a cop out. The fact they arenât giving more tokens because there was an issue with 0.01% of players using their tokens. Knowing AGS, they are talking about cross region transfers, or people that create a ticket then post more stuff on the auction then wonder why they still canât transfer.
But as it remains currently, content is quite impossible for some servers. You canât switch to a different faction because one is overpopped to play with those interested in endgame, while the other two are dead.
Then to make it worse, random anti transfer people like @Rune who donât want transfers are posting in threads about wanting transfers off 100 pop servers. If you donât want one cool, stop posting in the thread!
Youâre not adding anything constructive, youâre not contributing to the thread other than inciting anger amongst a group that has been given the copy paste response for the last month, stop posting here. Itâs infuriating, the amount of people that do this is uncalled for and I donât quite understand why their posts arenât being flagged by CS as harassment. Because at this point your shit posting at a base really is just that. Baseless harassment. Go do something productive!
That being said. @Luxendra - Low pop servers are bleeding people like mad, at this point, it would make more sense to tell people that a low pop server is being shut down, rather than merged, since you canât seem to figure that out (Not your fault, from what Iâve seen the game code is a house of cards) But save us, the lonely few on the sub 100 average pop servers before you lose us.
Weâre being patient, but when we know a system already exists in game, in which I bet you can most definitely direct towards accounts on a specific world, itâs infuriating to keep getting the same copy and paste answer without an answer. While you see me post, the other 5 of my group arenât because I am.
I love this game, I transferred to a more populated server to enjoy it more, at which, that server died within a week. This is causing more damage than a queue ever would have.
The health of the many, should always outweigh the health of the few. Something it seems every part of our society has been affected by in the past 10 years.

Adding a second one would defeat the point. The point is to remove us from low pop.
Is there a bug that prevents some people from using their token?
Everyone left my server after I transferred there. There isnât even enough people to run dungeons. We need more transfer tokens or a merge. Or people will just have to keep quitting.

Are you sure those people still want to transfer at this point, given the population drop? I know several that gave up and uninstalled from being unable to respawn for so long.
However many people are stuck, it is unreasonable that their issues hold the reset of the population hostage. Their fixes are a separate issue.

I can post where I like, and Iâm within the code of conduct. My post doesnât cancel anyone elseâs out. I read the forum regularly and was trying to help with an answer that has already been shared.
I could equally ask why you keep posting asking solutions of the community team that we all know they wonât or canât provide (because theyâve told us so).
Just because you donât agree with my comment doesnât make my comments invalid or harassment, and shame on you for inferring that.

Youâre right, I didnât mean to invalidate your post. I love my server and donât want to transfer out, though the population peak has dropped down to about 500 now (and Iâm assuming it will continue). With the merge code in the production client, I guess Iâm just optimistically hopeful that merges are extremely imminent. And thatâs where my comment was coming from.
If I were on a server that only had 100-200 people, I would be equally frustrated being unable to play this game I love. More power to you in your effort.

When deliberately commenting to undermine the want of a large portion of the low pop server community, when the questions are directed at the community team, which is our direct line to the developers, and is being used as such. You posting saying, hey, they said this.
Well thatâs cool. Thatâs not a good answer, that isnât a fix. Keep pushing it upwards. Keep forwarding the message. If you shut posts like this down without that following, after 1 or 2 posts it gets ignored and âOMG I Have To Actually Play and Not Zerg Everything Nowâ posts start getting more attention.
One is a deliberate design change for a good reason. One, is seemingly silly given the technology already exists, without need for PTR testing, or debugging, or more PTR testing, Iâve used it, it worked well, then the server died.
Sadly, this game requires more than 100 people to play. At the base level 100 players fills one war. 100 players have trouble with upkeep. 100 players have trouble doing anything, economy wise, faction wise, town wise. Farming is useless, nobody to buy anything, crafting, unless for personal gain is the same. Essentially negating 90% of the game. Because rather than use a fix that exists, theyâd rather try to develop one that doesnât
And thatâs why I find your post to be harassing. Again. If you donât want to transfer, donât. But do not deliberately post in a thread made by those of us that do, that we want to make noise, so itâs actually HEARD by the developer so they can invoke a faster method that already works for 99.9999999% of players.
While a forum CSR canât give me a token, they sure as hell can report. âHey guys, there are a tonne of people stuck on low pop that really need transfersâ Because honestly, we wouldnât be asking for one if we didnât want to play, and players is something they really need to think about given the questionable design decisions that drove others away from the game in droves.

Still cannot use my first transfer token due to âactive trading orderâ bug. Thousands of others have the same issue for WEEKS, read the megathread in bugs section. Itâs quite terrible really.

Whatâs genuinely sad is that there isnât even an ETA on server merges yet, just the really depressing âon the horizon.â Comment.
Which shows an utter lack of transparency. Legitimately all of my friends have quit playing the game aside from a select few and those select few are growing to resent the game because I push them to play it so often. I look like the dumb person at this point saying âthereâs no way they could let this happen to their game.â When in reality it seems like itâs just a non factor to the devâs theyâre too focused on introducing new weapons to the game like void gauntlet. (which is cool donât get me wrong, but maybe prioritize saving the life of your game and getting players on to servers with people.)
The last 2 dev blogs had absolutely nothing to do with server transfers, or merges of any kind. At this point, as sad as it is to say i will probably give it until december, if thereâs still not even an ETA (which shows a total lack of transparency) iâll just uninstall and regret every dime i gave to the game.
If you introduced paid server transfers, not only would your player base be happy because they can actually play with other human beings - but you will make a disgusting amount of money more than likely.
