When do we play?

[Delsus]

I meant, they needed to save our progress and take don the servers to transfer the data. Why take them down before it is necessary? I don't understand why having the players not playing your game for 3-4 months is going to turn out for the better.

There's a lot of complex data they need to re-encode, I imagine the data we have now will be incompatible with ARR because of the different graphics engine making it a lot more than a copy and paste.

Re-encoding complex graphics and data takes a lot of work and time, Yoshi-P said it will take over 1 month to do it, and they want plenty of leeway, imagine a completly working and polished game being delayed because the character port was not ready, or worse starting without our characters.
