    If ever we can change servers, Im sure Tegan would be empty :D I really prefer they combine Werian, Agathon and Tegan server tho..

    I myself am on Agathon, my preset server so yea. The people I play with are the best, but there is also the lack of a community over here. So combining servers sounds great.

    OriooN why did you selected Werian server at first place?
    Was it recommended server?

    Make it possible for players to switch servers. I don't care if it would cost.


    Why add server transfer? :

    -link removed, double-


    PLEASE take this into consideration.


    Few months ago I quit DSO, I finally started playing again... and now I am bored again... planning to quit again. Tegan is absolutely dead, just remove that server ...

    I've said it before that there are two geographic server locations, one on the west cost of America, and one in Gemany. They could create two "Megaservers" (one in each geographic location) and leave Balor alone (as it is presently the only PvP only server.) This would avoid the lag problems of creating one server that would have inter server lag and player-server lag. The only thing is, if BP messes up such simple things as ending events on time and preventing people from exploiting the quests for thousands of reds, gems, draken, and snow ess, what makes you think they could do something as complicated as a server merger without royally messing up everyone for weeks while they sorted out the kinks in the programming/networking?

    Hello @Muscle ,

    I have merged your thread with this one since they are almost the same ;)

    One thing to consider would be the physical needs of the server. It may be that one server/continent wouldn't have the resources needed to handle the load. Think hard drive space, memory, CPU and incoming data via whatever ISP they are using as the trunk. DSO may have more servers to not only shorten the distance between player and server but to spread out the workload.

    For PVP, cross server access should be a priority. Wait times would plummet which would mean the ELO system could be more selective about making balanced matches. I'm not so convinced it is necessary for PVE. We also need group sizes increased from 5 to 6 with specific Guild bonuses if cross server PVP was implemented.

    Combine Tegan, Agathon, and Werian. Combine Heredur, Grimmag, and Maybe Balor.

    2 servers, heavily populated, people happy, and people have something to do.. Meet new people everyday aswell ^^



    DO IT PLEASE!!

    Like I said before, it would have to be geographically based to make best use of their server resources and to avoid inter-server lag. That means Tegan with Agathon, and Werian, Heredur, and Grimmag. I still think Balor should be on it's own as it is currently the only PvP server.

    Nah, Heredur, Grimmag, and Werian are already high populated.. im sure they can sort things out in another way. Balor allows players to fight on open area maps without having the pvp turned on red, which is kind of useless since you gain very little, or no honor at all - They would still meet people with red names, or enter the 3v3 arena from kingshill... OR just pvp.

    Tegan, Agathon, and Werian. Grimmag, Heredur, and Balor. Im sure they can upgrade to handle such power...

    I actually don't think they could handle lumping tegan and agathon with Werian.

    Even if they could, you're looking at it in terms of server population, Baragain's looking at it in terms of server geography, and he's right. If the current werian pvpers were sharing the agathon/tegan, and the server location stays located in the USA, the werian pvpers would probably have a lag disadvantage.

    Thank you... I'm not saying do the server grouping by convenience of the players, I'm speaking about physical locations of the server hardware and if they were to do the grouping as Muscle recommends, there would be a 50%-100% increased lag fro communications that have to cross the Atlantic ocean. If you don't believe me, try using the command prompt and type
    Code:
    ping agathon.drakensang.com
    or
    ping werian.drakensang.com
    you will see just how drastic the difference can be... so who do we screw over with the increased lag times... not my servers if you please!

    Ah well, server chaning would be best I guess.

    Or just combine Agathon with tegan, and leave the others as they are - since they're good populated anyways.

    I'm going to bump up this tread again to increase conversation. This shouldn't be overlooked by developers!
    Give us opportunity to change out of the slow boring "happy hour" pvp server! If you are going to implement same "score" rating in Agathon than in Heredur in future, Im pretty sure I will be starting look another pvp game to play.

    Lumping servers together sounds like a bad solution to a growing problem: not enough players.
    Why not go to the root of the problem, and proving a high quality game that attracts more players?
