After a month and a half of the arrival of the EUO region, we can see some problems.
It is impossible to find mates below level 50 to participate in dungeons.
Difficulty in finding mates at certain times/days for weekly dungeons as a daily.
A few ping climbs per moment.
Huge empty channel.
More and more people leaving the FR/ENG community to return to Central Europe.
Very little choice of object in the market in view of the relatively small population of the region, which leads to a rise in prices which is complicated to follow with the few easily accessible gold currently at stake.
Increasing number of bot/Gold-Selle in T3 (Punika/South Bern), which pushes a lot of players in trouble with winning gold to buy on illegal sites.
All these problems related to the market, raises the prices of bad object obtainable in the game according to a percentage of chance.
Do you have any plans to do anything for players in EUW? Possible transfers from Roster? Compensation? Multiply the advertising for this region in order to try to bring back more players?
I hope to have a response of a CM (Roxx Maybe !) fairly quickly, wishing you a good evening/ day on Archésia.
Hi @Piinky thank you very much for taking the time to share your feedback! So you can have a bit more visibility, I’m moving your thread to the English-speaking feedback category, thank you!
I moved to EUW despite knowing it was going to be dead within a few months and I could casually play without spending the few hours I had to play each week in a queues, the only good side of EUW (personally) is that it has allowed me to experience the game 90%+ and lets me mess about with various classes for the hell of it
However…
EUW is an abject failure !
which is hardly unexpected from AGS really, their idea of game management is woeful (proven by New World and they managed to double down on this in LA) and the few sops they have thrown at EUW players (double log in rewards for a couple of weeks) have done and will do nothing in the long run to help in anyway to the remaining players
EUW =
Groups are near non-existant (you might see 1 or 2 groups for argos if you are lucky at peak times)
any world boss prior to Moake you are lucky to see 4-5 people there so usually failure
levelling alts you will rarely see anyone other than bots along the way grouped in areas killng elites
AH is about 1% full compared to EUC (as seen in other threads) so hard to actually get T3 accesories
you might see 10 in ocean chat at peak times
This will not get better anytime soon if at all imo
i do actually agree with you. It doas suck but euw was created because people demanded it (and it was pretty clear that there woud be population problems) and now wanting some magical solution for it. With that sad i do hope that it will get better… somehow
merge euw servers i completely agree, half of my server has probably quit we only have 2 or 3 groups of people doing endgame stuff
cant buy accessories shop is dead
we have like 5 bards on the whole server
tortyok
when i started playing it was about 3 weeks after release and i had no idea what server problems the game had, i just picked euw because thats what i pick on every game i’ve ever played
no they are server wide so merging servers would mean more things in the auction house and more people to do things with
i want randoms to be stood in punika selling things in chat
started on EUW (petrania) aswell to join some friend 1month after release now i doubt there’s even more than 200ppl on my server (not even 100player in the pvp weekly board).
The biggest problem so far is the lack of goods on the AH. A few days ago I pushed my alt to T2 and wanted to get myself a full T2 armor set. I struggled to get some parts, as there were literally none available at that time. The same goes if you want to buy decent T3 accessories. Some popular engraving combinations are actually impossible to find or are severely overpriced. Most of the time I have to settle with what’s available, which means lots of people are forced to run with unoptimized builds - and we’re talking about T3.
Running daily content is also problematic. For example, I’m doing the daily Gesbroy coop on one of my alts. If I won’t go there early I’ll be locked out from entering Ch1. the remaining available channel has like 1-5 players making the whole event awfully long to finish. Moeke is fine so far - usually a couple of red channels available, so there’s no problem to clear it.
As for bots, I’m leveling a fresh character with my fiancee (currently in Anikka), and along the way, we’ve seen much more bots than normal players.
i love this game so much i dont want it to be new world v2 because of amazon
a server merge would help alot i think and put alot of energy back into the game
the players are so down trodden at the moment we need a boost
im forcing myself to play at this point
like i watch streams and there is groups of people doing unas, 50 ish people doing world bosses
and i feel like my uninformed choice of server has ruined my experience of lost ark forever
It was created to solve log-in problems and 10k+ queues caused by influx of bots and low amount of servers due to technical limitations of the game.
It was not created because we demanded it. We wanted the problem of 10k queues at any given time of the day to be solved. AGS/SG solved it by adding another region.
So yes, we demanded a solution for the problem. Not specifically a separate region. On contrary, a lot of people were very displeased and against second region for EU and hesitant to move there in the first place.
I really hope they fix these issues so we can all play together.
I didn’t move myself but I’m not gonna blame the players that moved, queues were too long during 6 weeks if I recall correctly, I was lucky I could ask someone to log in my computer and queue for about 7-8hours so I could play when I got home.
Anyway, AGS opened a new region to deal with the queues since they couldn’t add more servers to the current region, so I guess they will somehow, sooner or later, manage this situation and give you guys a solution. (Hopefully sooner than later)
ye i know i stayed on EUC and slog through 14k ques on my server i coud have word it better (didnt meant to offend or blame anyone) just shared my view on this situation. But ye like a sad i do hope a solution is found also Valtan release will hopefully inject more ppl in those servers
For many of us, people that just work and are not willing to pay extra electricity bills for having their PC at home ran 24/7 - logging in to play 2-3 hours during evening time was impossible. It was either move, or not play at all and lose the crystalline aura/benefits obtained during few first days where things were not so bad.
