Please Merge EUW into EUC or make one time Character transfers possible

I’ve spent 1300+ hours in the game and I would love to spent more time in it as i really enjoy the content. BUT as i changed from EUC to EUW because of the long queue times at the beginning i wasn’t realising i would also switch into a server where i cant find any groups after a few months.
For example its Reset day today and there are 5 clown partys in the whole region at 18 o clock server time its just sad to see the server slowly dying as people migrate to other games or back to EUC and start again. I for me can say i wont switch back to EUC and start over again, its just too much as I have already spent a huge amount of time and effort to push my Characterrs to where they are now.
So as a relativly active Player i plead and beg for merges or Character transfers. I really dont want to quit the game because i can’t find groups to play new content with.

Let’s hope they’ll at least give our dear EUW players this option. Cloning a single character from server to server and then deleting the older one shouldn’t be that big of a feat to pull of from such a considerable dev team

They dont have the technology at the moment.

Befor someone said: “its 2022 lmao”… the game is old and we dont know on with structure they used and build th game on (besides its a UE3 game).

Smilegate stated that region merge is not possible.

I mean the engine is ancient, but NOT that ancient :joy:

Pretty sure they said not possible at this momenth, meaning they aint using any resources to make it possible.

We’re smaller region, that’s true. But it’s not that bad.
All the people I know do weekly stuff at reset day ( guardians/abyssals/mythic event ) not the raids.

Big words for someone who has no clue in this work area lol

Dont be offendet but its easy to talk.
You already know (or in this case dont know) that server management and setup has nothing to do with UE3 game engine alone.

Where has smilegate stated this?

AGS said server merges were not possible 3 months ago, we’ve now had multiple very successful server merges. For all, we know AGS/SG could also have been working in the background on region merge technology. Making definitive statements like yours is just silly. No one knows what ultimately is or isn’t possible currently or in the future.

Merging databases doesn’t require some alien tech, they are just lazy and want a one click solution.

I know. From my point of view this is just a simple data migration and if a server merge is possible then a region merge should be possible too.
And if they dont want to fix very simple things in the game, they wont do a server merge thats for sure.

They are just lazy and dont really care the western version.

Proberly to high cost, might be that the population on west is so low that the cost of making merging is to expensive.

only problem there is that you have region wide names which make server migration rather easy while its not the case cross region,
so there will be same names all over the place and they first need to make a tool to set random names and mark characters for name change by user on next login in case of name conflict

wow had that for years now but well yea lets say its some cosmic proportion problem :stuck_out_tongue:

they prefer watch the game die full of bot than having any solution for the shit they created with EUW.

They will never do region merges because it isn’t worth for them. Korea is a single region so no need there. They only wanted servers merge and they made ‘tools’ for this even before our release. Also refused to make a single account wide ID so merging databases is way harder.

What does the number of lobbies tell you?
Clown is a 4 man raid so the number of open lobbies should be by default less than Vykas/Valtan because you only have to fill 3 slots so faster in and out of lobbies.
Then you have open lobbies because there is a role shortage or people don’t want to play with these players/gatekeeping.
The last group of open lobbies are premades and advertising.
If we exclude premades in a perfect world there would be only 1 lobby open for every gate until it’s full and then the next one opens.

EUC is fine we don’t need players from EUW. If you want to play in EUC come and create new one. I also left my EUW character for EUC if you wonder.

And why we need start from scratch??? Why you want that instead region merging? Because you couldn’t wait for merging and start over in EUC?

They are looking into it now, Probably not going to happen anytime soon though.
