Changing Servers at Release

They said that old players will not be able to move to new worlds (Mainly for economics reasons). But they could create regional worlds for old players too... We need more info anyway.

New characters are allowed to be created on any server, not just new/Level 1 servers.

I know but Enma suggested having a old players only sever which will eventually fail since you'll have no new players coming in as old players retire...

Ohh, that's not how I interpreted his post. I took it to mean that old players cannot move to level 1 servers. But I guess maybe all "new" servers will be Level 1....?

I really didn't think about it that way.

Hmmm.

*edit* Yes, more info we need. *patiently looks forward to that*

Hopefully there's "New comer servers" and new servers we can transfer to that are for anyone. I have a few friends who are joining and I also have a few friends that play who want to be based on a US server. But if the Alpha servers were JP based and I never noticed any lag.

I plan on rolling a new character, but I don't want to have all my money, and main on one server and can't be able to transfer that to another.

I highly recommend staying on japanese servers since Yoshida said they can do direct management of those servers while they can't with the american and other abroad servers...

That's the point of "new players server" they don't want that you can get your main over there. If you want to reroll then do it on the same server you got your main on. Otherwise it could take long time till you will be able to get them together if it gonna be possible at all....

Also we shouldn't forget all the community reps on the NA forum are on vacation...

but wouldn't that mean that we would all be stuck on the Japanese servers? Unless we create a new character on the regional servers?

I would imagine they would eventually provide server transfers down the road, but at launch it's just to chaotic to pull off.
