@Manuelt15: If you're trying to combat low populations, how does combining the two deadest servers help either world?

EDIT: My mistakes seems I didn't read the +Scania part.

WBKB and ZEDGAS?
Neat.

[quote=09080706l]Their populations combined is still very low.
EDIT: Bellonova+ Broa+Khaini+ Renegades all combined is a good merge though, IMO.[/quote]

But I never said Khaini + Renegades alone, I said Scania + Khaini + Renegades, Scania can only be matched with the really low pop servers IMO.

Hey now, I want to be able to at least get top 50 dojo gloves. Top 10 is already impossible as it is even in CYMK

I agree with this so much.

Even I don't trust them. Especially when they didn't even mention when exactly they'll even do it honestly.

[quote=Manuelt15]Windia and Bera would never merge, their population is not that far off from Scania, but I would seriously like if they only keep 3 or 4 servers and merge everything to those 3 or 4 servers. a future-proof solution.

Scania should probably be left alone, since it has the most complicated and hacker-tampered economy.

Bera could get YMCK

Windia could get GAZED

Broa could get Bellonova, Khaini and Renegades

--------- OR ----------

Scania gets one of the lowest pop servers, like Khaini and/or renegades

Bera gets YMCK and Broa

Windia gets GAZED and Bellonova

-------------------------

I know this seems drastic, but the population here is only going down, and when MS2 comes out it will be critically low, I rather not go around begging for another server merge when that happens.[/quote]

Khaini+Regenades, you must be crazy.

@Caeg: We just want the world transfers ( the cs item, not event ) ! * cries in a corner until they announce it * and yes, I don't trust their word either; it could come anywhere from a year later to ten years later.... >.< </3

They're supposedly in the works. But I don't trust Nexon's word.

[quote=BobR]The only way they'll actually devote the time and resources ($$$) needed to merge more worlds is if they can also remove server hardware to save money.
Given the change in the performance of the game after the last merges, I'm guessing they were able to take quite a bit of processing power offline, (remove server computers), which cut their costs of running so many different worlds. If they figure they can do that again, -then- we'll see more world merges.[/quote]

A massive merge would leave some hardware unused, though they still have to invest a good time and money, either way I'm sure they will end up doing it, the health of the population depends on it.

What ^ said. each of the big 3 worlds picking up some of the smaller worlds would definitely put some life back into the game, but not much.

very likely given the state of the game, i'm hoping for scania + 1 world, windia + 1 world, bera + 1 world. I rather not see all worlds merged into one with increased channels, but that's just me. I believe the community manager has also said they were working on world merges.
