Server merge - Ra & Piranha

[Frosk]

Dear users,

Together with the release of Champions of Regnum and the Instances system (Battlezones) we’ve added new and different game mechanics for each player to find the gameplay that suits him/her best.

We’ll also launch very soon the new Epic Dragons’ “Caves”, which will also be played on instances. This will give all players the chance to have a much more controlled game and combat experience, besides fighting the dragon and obtaining its new loot.

Realm vs Realm will keep on being the game’s main feature, and the whole general experience is much more enjoyable if the number of users online surpass 500 in a frequent basis.

With the sole purpose of improving the Champions of Regnum experience, we’ve decided to merge both servers Ra and Piranha, so all members of the Brazilian and Portuguese communities enjoy a truly massive game experience.

It’s also important to highlight that players will NOT lose any of their objects or experience. The only different thing they’ll notice is that a lot more players are logged in, and that the entire experience will be enjoyable in a new way.

We’re pretty sure that the cultural similarities between the 2 communities (RA and Piranha) will make up for a quick integration.

More details regarding dates and the process involved will be given soon.

We hope you’re as eager as us about this!

There goes my favorite server

I guess it's too early to imagine what impact this could/will have on Haven, so I'll just keep my worries to myself.

But one sentence in particular hurts from the perspective of Haven:

Since you're so worried about general experience...are there any plans for improving the situation on Haven?

Anyway, good luck to people from RA and Piranha.

RA will be more overpopulated and haven more underpopulated, its nice

[siebren]

I feel the same i think haven wil be kinda left out

[errei]

=)

A question about the dragons. Is it possible for the archers to drop? And if it is yes? Then why it is. Because they dont have any auras or the dmg. Could you explain it? Thnx allot..

Atleast merge Nemon with Haven then....

Haven will probably be absorbed (merged) to PiRAnha ( PiRAnHaven!) at some point depending on how the queue is affected. If a server can accommodate maybe 1200 concurrent users then a merge to one server is probably on the cards.

It is probably a sensible idea to at least consider such a move. Better to have one lively server than 3 limping ones.

I would hate to infer that Piranha and or RA did not achieve 500 + on a frequent basis thus, the need to merge.

I hate to say this, but its unlikely as GameSamba run Haven under contract, and GS technically own the DB to Haven.

Nemon and Valhalla are both owned and run by Gamigo sa, a merge of those two servers is more likely.

Haven I am afraid will limp along entirely on its own until such time as GameSamba give up trying to run it, and hand the DB over to NGD to do with as they please.
