That moment when the forums scream for mergers and now almost every USEast server has a queue

I think it’s time for AGS to open up some FRESH ASS SERVERS!!!

LETS GO YOU SWEATY FUCKS! LETS GET A TIER 2 WINDSWARD BECAUSE WE PAID 10K TO OWN IT!!! LETS FUCKING GOOO!!!

(Wait til I can transfer first though daddy Bezos.)

Fixing crafting would’ve been a good enough selling point for me to come back.

If I quit. Lol

On Orofena, I go from 1 in que, up to 11, back down and then back up…this is a little nutty.

they’ve said this is a visual bug so you just have to wait it out.

I pressed log in at 8, and I had the afk timer at 838.

Took 30 minutes?

The funnest thing about this queue is that I’ve been every position in queue from 1 to 10…and not in order. First I was 8th, then 1st, then 5th, the 1st, then 7th, then 9th, then…

Well, I’ll let you know if it ever ends.

Because they needed them. West is down to 2 servers and still dont fill up. This is a phase that will pass. If not then they can open more. Its better to have a queue for a week or so then to have dead servers that cant even function for months on end.

Yeah and you already know the problem of that. One or two sweaty guilds move and one server becomes dead again. People aren’t going to keep spending 15 bucks to change that situation.

Because people in US west felt like they were need in US west, then why merge many US east servers at the same time, right before a new content patch then cause queues on 3 of 4 of the US East servers? Why not just merge the US west servers that were having issues? If your server is dead and you cannot afford the 15$ dollar transfer, why not allow them to apply for a transfer with xyz reasons? They don’t need to give everyone free tokens I don’t believe this is the solution, but on case by case, if it had a valid enough reason for wanting to transfer,sure why not?

/shrug. They dont communicate or handle the servers well. Never have. They left many servers dead for many many months. Because of transfer tokens it just alternates which server that is. Someone is always going to be upset. Having people spend 15 bucks every other month isn’t the answer though.

AGS did the right thing and I stand by them. The timing of it was unfortunate, and I think the queue times will be worse come the new Dungeon and then the mutation of it thereafter. If anything, the mergers should’ve happened after the content drops to see who remains after the new content has cooked for a while, and then the reality of mega companies spoiling the end game PvP, and people leave again, because there’s no hope to gain a territory.

If anything, this should be addressed very soon. It should be a faction benefit, not only the companies that run the servers into the ground and low player counts worldwide. Then maybe, AGS sees players return, and we can bring back servers again, one by one.

Inhales copium deeply

Merging is fine, merging with no communication and without heavily fielding it by the community is dipsy-dum-dum.

It’s a massive game design issue. The servers are doomed to spend 90% of their time overpopulated or underpopulated.

You’re 10,000% correct O.o

I saw you announcing you were transferring with your company to Ohonoo earlier in the month I think. I was just lurking on the forums and I thought to myself “I think I’m going to wait until the patch to transfer”. Obviously between merging and then releasing the summer patch it’s been a whirlwind.

It’s too hard to plan company moves from server to server with the AGS team switching between “no more merges planned” to suddenly “merging in 2 days!”. Sorry you guys had to go through all of that, it definitely would make me feel a bit frustrated. :frowning:

yeah yeah SA merges great ? right before a big update?
mistake after mistake. This dont surprise me anymore.

I don’t really mind the ques, but i imagine it is a big turn-off for some. Especially those that are returning to the game.

Its not about what this or that player wants, its about how AGS wants their game to presented.

They want everyone to play the full server/queue experience, and going forward they can push content and balance around full servers.

… also I hate it.

Reminds me of parents who give in to their child’s temper tantrums to shut them up because they don’t know what else to do.
