Server Merge FAQ

People from LC harrasing us in chat now for being weak and poor.

2 reasons. For troll bait yaylol. The drake guy is funny, almost like the new gen of our old sanctuary prophet hatedsoul. One of the reasons i still cant BL him still lol.
Other is just they got insecurity issues. Often a trait of kids who feel the need to lug their weight around for all to see. They tease cause you have something they want but dont have.

Stupid PVE people binding emperor tomes!

The damage control from server ego clashes is real.

And I am wholly amused by watching it all. It's been hilarious so far from multiple sides.​​

Shall I fluff your tail while we enjoy the WC, Desdi? ​​

CT claims the whole server is against them when everyone and their dogs faction is fighting on their side lul. Theres literally only two factions allied together against CT unless you count that random person from other faction = whole faction vs what? ct vindi knights inssurect pepito and god knows what else. You guys are funny.

Dont cry when pk dies out, or will you actually start pking each other when hoorah gives up? oh nah its easier to just whine pk dead game boring right, oh wait new excuse: pve server lul

Pepito is not allied with anyone

and that's why with fight with shinra, hoorah and anyone else too. We just side with the outnumbered group so we can actually have some fun pvp :O and yesterday we fought against people in vindi and ct. You can ask the 2 persons from shinra that were with us ;o

Edit: I think Knights was against us too

@shade13 I wasn't talking trash, but merely making an observation. I've been knocked down a peg or two myself before. I figure that after a few weeks when the TW map is balancing out a bit more they'll realize that the PvE guys aren't the easy pushovers they thought we would be.

Drake also tried forcing the gold prices up to 4m, and accomplished that in a rather short period. It didn't take long to drop back to normal again though.

Sylen, this observation is pointless here because it's Server Meerge FAQ topic. Not the topic dedicated to the one of servers opposing guilds. If you are willing to discuss it, welcome to the certain server section or world chat, some ppl surely prepared tones of popcorn for that (: But here it's nothing else than offtopic and trashtalking, because apparently no one cares what is happening between unknown guilds on the other servers.
It's like some morai players turning nearly every topics on the old forum into arguing who is better on their server. After couple of pages of normal discussion you have to read (or better skip) tones of useless information and arguing you will never need and don't want to know.

Better come and simply fight in game if you are so pvp interested.

As for Drake, this guy is a troll. He contradicts himself daily. He can be even a bot, but if spams same lines over and over again whole day manually, even worse for him. Seeing how ppl fall on his **** is sad and funny at the same time.

I've unlocked the account stash on both servers; what will happen to it?

Both account stashes will be merged into a single, double-sized account stash.

Has this issue been addressed at all? I may have missed it if has, but there are so many pages that have nothing to do with Server Merge FAQ.

REPOSTING: as my post got deleted: The rubberbanding because of having 2 flipping games on the same server is total bull ****. NeverWinter and Star Trek Online are on the same flipping server and as a result star trek online is a rubberbanding nightmare. There is no damn call for this what so ever at all. I have played for a long long time and to protest I suggest everyone quit spending money in STO. Best form of protest is to quit paying money. Fix the issues and i'll spend money again. Until then F off

My friend you are in the wrong part of forum thats why your post gets delated.
This forum and thread is about Perfect World International. If you want to discuss your problems regardless Star Trek and Neverwinter go to Star Trek Online and Neverwinter forum.
This server merge in PWI has nothing to do with your servers there.

Yes it does.

I really don't see why it would. We have the same traffic on the same nodes on PWE's end. With the exception of the East Coast, where it's been reduced due to one server being moved to Europe.

EDIT: Also appears that your previous posts were removed because of the language you used.​​

As a side note to the above: Rubberbanding is not caused by what you people think it's caused by. I know exactly what causes it for PWI so reading the above made me laugh. It has to do with maximum distance a character can move over a period of a second. Colliding with objects causes extra distance to be traversed because of **** collision handling (in that it will attempt to correct the characters position, but in doing so may have moved it too far and thus passed the maximum distance you could move causing a repeated rubberbanding effect because you keep moving too far each time it checks). PWI used to have a larger maximum distance but shrunk it due to supposed wall and speed hacking (I never saw it, I only saw people swimming in the air). Node latency is not the cause of its rubberbanding. I suspect the other games suffer rubberbanding for similar reasons. It's a hard thing to get right frankly.​​

So, anyone on Morai server can confirm if server time is UTC (as PWE states), or is actually an hour off?

Morai is physically hosted in the Netherlands. The server time follows CET time conventions, usually GMT +1 and observing DST.

If that's the case, then it only puts my event time calculation for the East Coast off by one hour.

So I'll correct my original post....

So the biggest complaint with Harshlands is the event times.

The main TW is at 8pm server, so this means that it would change from 8pm Eastern to 5pm Eastern. Pretty much the same times for NW also.
The afternoon TW is at 2pm, which would make it 11am Eastern.
The early morning TW (rare) is at 9am, which would make it 6am Eastern.

Overall, since these all occur on Saturday and Sunday, the only real issue will be with the Friday NW battles occurring while most people are still at, or getting off, work; and also with the very rare 5am TW time slot. (Which is really only ever seen in the first week or two of the TW season.)

Basically, now your evening has been freed up to go out with friends, or to a late movie. It also makes the Sunday NW way better for those who have jobs to go to on Monday morning.

Are you guys looking at the times in the right direction? I keep seeing people complain about early morning battles.
This is nothing like what Europeans playing on East/West coast servers have had to put up with, where their TW times were 3am for a West coast server, or midnight for a East coast server.

​​

you are still wrong, instead of just reading what i said, you are fighting my post and talk about fruits. too bad the fruits came from the same tree.

east coast servers were SIX(-6-) hours behind morai server. i was playing on both and i am not some random that does not know how to open the event calender, so stop acting like you know it all. and do your math again. here is a hint: 20-6 = x

So, I chose a good time to come back, then? ..

Depends on how long you have been gone. If its been a long time, you are going to have to put a lot of time into getting your stuff up to date. That includes gear, avatar cards, leveling avatar cards, and the primal passives.
Or just drop a few grand into a game that as of late, has been showing signs of it not lasting as long as people think it will. (ie employee layoffs, and forced server mergers)

Complaints on here and complainrts on world chat, grow up and suck it up buttercups cuz you really do not have much of a say in anything in this game except for to quit or stick it out and see if any changes are made.

That's limp.
After the time that has passed since the merge, I will say this. I really tried to make this work.
When I first started playing - not long after the server was out of beta - I hated PvP. I still am not a PvPer, though I'm in a heavy PvP guild. It is my second faction like that in all of this time. I used to get butt-hurt. Now I just roll with it, and I'm not a PKer myself.
However, I DID pick an East Coast server to play on, because I live on the East Coast. I have excellent Internet and a maxed-out computer - having made sure of these things because I WANT TO PLAY THIS GAME in the best way possible. No dueling and using lag as an excuse. No using it as an excuse for TW or PvP. During some of the worst TWs I could still run with full graphics and not lag. My average ping was 40-70 with a 21+FPS.
Over the years my husband and I have spent more on this game then some people do on a nice new car. But we don't drink, do drugs or spend time in bars/clubs. This is our #1 form of entertainment and we have enjoyed it and our friendships both in guild and among others in server. These were choices WE made. The game isn't perfect, but we rolled with it and the new updates, quests and changes. We enjoyed all of the events, tried everything, even formed some pretty awesome NW teams. Yes, a lot of folks left, but they visited and some became friends outside of the game and we always kept in touch.

Now, we don't have a choice. My ping averages 480 - 4k! Four Thousand! That is unplayable. At first I thought it was due to the HUGE number of people who just hang around in Archosaur. They don't DO anything, just get on their wings or mounts and stand or float in high traffic areas. In HL it was congested in West, but here it is everywhere. I tried going to places where I knew there wouldn't be a lot of folks - Primal doing quests. Morai. Remote parts of the HL map. But it didn't matter. Doing FSP I lag so bad that I can't finish without dying at the last boss - something that rarely ever happens unless it's a very bad squad. That's from lag. If I just stand there when I'm pressing the button for a skill, and then if I need to spark but never see the red text? DEAD.

Then there is the time differences. We work. To come home and find that it isn't just too late to do events but the new day has already started? 6pm to us it midnight and refresh on Dawnglory. Rarely if ever will we be able to do the events. How is that fair? How can we improve our gear if we can't do NW? RW? Special events will just be a rumor to us.

I like the people. I'm sure I'd get to like them more given time. I love everyone. But I really would have liked to stay in an East Coast server. Something more central to my location. I have not been given the choice. I chose HL. I chose to be or not be in a PvP guild. I chose who I associated with daily and how I wanted to play the game. Here, I have no choice. To quit isn't a choice - it's forcing me to do something I don't wish to do. I still enjoy PWI and still want to play. I just can't do this and it isn't a fair or financially-smart decision to make me chose that as an only option. Yes, I put a lot of the money I worked for into a game that may fold next week, but that is different from being moved to someplace where I can't even participate, though others can. There is a perfectly good East Coast server still up and I'd be happy to move there.

It needs to be addressed and fixed. If PWI has to merge/move people, at least give them a choice. It is even something I'd be willing to pay to do. If I can change my sex, my name, the name of my guild, I should be able to change servers. I understand the difficulty. But that doesn't make it impossible. Do it, PWI. Do it soon.
