is server transfer going to allow East Coast to West coast or is that one of the things we don't even know yet I got some fellas playing on East but I'm looking to meet up with SFD on the West when/if Plancta ever opens.

lol so I create my dude on a random server my friends chose while we wait for servers we actually want to play on to open up, and it spawns me on a random beach (one of four apparently???) that is no the beach they started on. I guess once you do some quests there it locks you into that specific storyline? And now I can't do the story along with them? How long does this last. Do the stories converge at any point? Am I going to get different dungeons or whatever lol

the clipping in this game is horrendous, jesus. This kind of thing normally doesn't bother me but there are items from the same set that look straight up incompatible. I've got clothes clipping through by otherwise naked body. One of the hoods clips through your head if you're bald lol

my brain worms are preventing me from playing this game until details about the server transfers drop just in case I do have to reroll on Plancta lol real missed opportunity to not allow transmog for non-cash-shop items, though. Some of these default armors look really nice, like the drowned pirate looking outfits or the hooded robes. And, you know, dyes. Can you even dye the armor appearances? That's about the only thing preventing me from grabbing the dracula set lol

between telling people to roll in different, less populated regions because they'd eventually be able to transfer back to their friends (which ended up being a lie/wishful thinking) and the clusterfuck that was the launch EU regions due to people making characters solely to register names early (why are names global but not other character data???), I can understand why some people are mad but drat, some of these people are fuckin' mad lol

Barreft posted:I mean it's common sense you can't transfer to full servers and such, been saying that all week. They have a max server limit and they can't go over it because of cryengine, and they're also a huge company like google that just doesn't give a gently caress. this isn't about transferring to full servers. like you said, that's common sense. it's not even about having multiple character on the same battlegroup or whatever they're called, since that should be common sense too since it's one of the character creation restrictions anyway what people (the ones who are paying attention at least) are mostly upset about is the surprise restriction in region, which was never mentioned as a restriction whenever the community team was asked about the upcoming server transfers. They were straight up telling people to roll in different servers because when transfers hit you can meet back up with your friends, so a lot of people on like EU or US East where there was little room in the first few days rolled in different regions just to be able to play

Lawlicaust posted:Wait, I assumed they meant US and EU when they meant regions. You can't transfer US East to West? LOL. Nope, they confirmed that in the thread somewhere. I'll see if I can find it. I was hoping they meant that too initially lol e: WarEternal posted:Why can't they transfer? They removed the 'full' status from the vast majority of servers, and that's really the only restriction. Even if not, if everyone solely wanted to play with each other, than the wise choice would be for people from the 'full' server to move to their friend's 'not full' server. Or a 3rd, entirely different server. You can't transfer regions at all, period. If you were one of the people who figured (or in some people's cases, told several times over twitter or discord by official community management members lol) you'd roll US West because US East has 8 hour queues and server transfers will eventually let you hang with your dudes, you're hosed

Official explanation on why server transfers can't happen across regions: "each region is actually it's own database and tagging characters to a new world isn't possible" Official explanation on why they let people believe incorrect information on their official twitter and forums before correcting it days later: "whoops"

Lawlicaust posted:Going to kill 10% of their population easily I would imagine. Maybe those people would have quit anyway but there's a lot of people that just got told they couldn't play with friends. If the game was more fun to play on an actual minute-to-minute basis and didn't require an awful hellgrind to progress because they only started adding PvE content 6 months ago, it likely wouldn't be an issue. Requiring a large time investment is fine for most people... once.

As long as you're in the same region (US East transferring to US East, US West transferring to US West, etc.), you're just limited by normal character creation rules. No locked servers, no two characters on the same battleset or whatever they're called. So if you've only got one guy and you're looking to move somewhere that isn't locked in the same region, you're good to go.
|
# ¿ Oct 9, 2021 03:29 |

or if you were, say, EU and everyone in the world was joining your servers solely to register a name because the database is global and your servers launched first, so you rolled on a US server just to be able to avoid day-long queues lol

If they really wanted to go on damage control they could absolutely manually transfer people's data. Their explanation about different databases meaning no transfers is kind of BS unless they're talking about some sort of automated system, which is likely the case. I doubt they'd do it, but the option is there.

yeah I also kind of hate this game but I'm still in for now due to it being a chill game to play with my friends, and also still holding out for server transfers so I can go to Royllo and maybe get to pvp in this pvp game.

pvp zones, where you can't leave town un-flagged, would do a lot to help I imagine. Structured pvp you can queue into is always nice but if it's the primary way to do pvp it's just going to separate the populations.
