Thread: Patch 5.0 Notes

Apparently Crossworld Linkshells are more important than normal ones. Players have been asking for the ability to reorder them since 2.x

To be honest they're probably going to kill off regular linkshells completely. As they increase the CWL cap there's no reason for server only LS to exist.

I think they're planning to replace linkshells with cross-world ones entirely in the long term. It's possible the underlying system is different despite the UI being the same, so maybe they either can't or don't want to alter it for the originals at this point if they're on their way to being obsolete.

Maybe, but if they replace a system that remains until the LS is deleted with a system that deletes a CWLS when no one is online it... well that\'s just a mess. Unless they changed the CWLS to not delete when everyone is offline in a previous patch that I missed?

They only delete if there's fewer than a certain number of people in them. Like 1 or 2, I don't remember off the top of my head. So long as there are 3+ in there they don't auto delete?
