Are we getting a server merge soon?

[Cesil]

Instead of making a new thread..bumping this one lol. As I mentioned in another thread...(QoL one) can we get some server merges please? I would move myself to Asura but someone there has my name..I can't lose my name heh ^^; and I still know a buncha people on Lakshmi...but like..we have 300 people on max lol that is kind of sad...

I would just like to add, it's not always about player numbers, its about communication and getting players that are willing to pull together.

I have a few Linkshells...
One has over 80+ members (Generally around 30 online at any one time), The other has around 6. The smaller Linkshell does more than the largest Linkshell.

Oh yes that is true! Hm I can't seem to find anyone to do stuff with on mine >.<

Your argument is valid when speaking about linkshells in today's setting, but not for the health of the game in the grand scheme of things. Lower server populations naturally make accomplishing certain tasks more difficult, such as finding like-minded individuals to create those linkshells.

Yeah like..there is a max total of 200 people on my server at peak..lol I think it is time they did a merge. This isn't gonna happen...

I really do hope they do some type of server merge sooner or later it seems a bit silly for them to have all these servers with so few people playing on them I wouldn't be shocked at all to see some with less people than Lakshimi at some point we're gonna have servers with less than 100 people on them (I hope they do something before then) but in the long run it just makes sense for them to do a merge maybe down to like 3 or 4 servers it would end up with them saving money idk just my thoughts on all this

I really like this game a ton, but it really needs a merger I started last Aug its so unique in today's mmo market it just needs people 300 people isnt very much and there is only so much the trusts can do

You know you could lose your name from a merge too right?

I was anti-merge, now I'm leaning towards server merge. The numbers seem to be falling more so lately. Around 8PM UK (GMT+1) I see around 299-320 or so players on. If you break this down to level 99's, its around 100 less, and then there are mules. JP time is just under 1000 population.

So, if they merged two servers of equal/rough size then I would see an estimated 1700-2000 JP time, and around 650-700 UK time which I think is a good number.

ah yeah I did not even think about that. So that being said..the population is even lower then I originally thought. So yeah..how about a dev update or something on server merges? I really want to keep playing but just cannot justify paying a sub on such a low populated server...

On Asura my friend showed me a screen shot of the population, it was 1,100 in the middle of the day on a Wednesday. If they merged servers down to about 4 or 5..I think every server would have that much.

And I wonder if people realize that having everyone flock to Asura is actually hurting the game. :/ That is why I refuse to go there.
