What about World Cluster? Why do you keep ignoring all questions concering EU/US Cluster?

This is a question for our production team, not for me to answer. I can tell you, it is being looked into. As mentioned in previous producers letters, we are working on technology for a Multilingual server, that would help such a move. We also would need to look into a Queing system if we were to do a “world cluster”, Other factors such as population balance and so on. This is not as simple as flipping a switch and making it happen or I assure you it would have be done already . I have to stress at this point, that I can't answer any more than that, it's not my place to do so.



While I appreciate your honesty, I(and I think i can speak for the vast majority of the Glamorgan community) still don't get why the multilingual server seems to be such a high priority while Mythic still refuses to enable xfers.
The french community seems to do just fine on Ywain and most of the german players have already rolled toons on Ywain, too. Their biggest concern right now is definitely not any kind of language issues, but more like what's gonna happen to the characters stuck on Glamorgan.

It's pretty damn frustrating to roll Ywain from scratch while your fancy stuff is rendered useless on a pretty much dead server.
Yet people do it, so - for the love of god - why not just enable xfers in the meantime and introduce a us/french/german multilanguage server whenever it's done?

NPC buffs in BG's? We've just added a slew of quests through the BG to streamline lower level players into RvR and allow them to collect comparable gear etc. I see no problem with BG buffers.



This response is a bit unclear, so let me ask for a clarification. Do you mean that you think adding NPC buffers like the ones that are in NF, DF, and Lab to the BGs is a good idea or do you mean you don't see a need for them? For me this will be a major factor going forward whether I continue to subscribe to DAOC. The annoyance of having to resupply and reapply buff potions is substantial. Also has there been any consideration to adding haste and spec AF to the buffs the NPCs provide?



I thought same thing,I think he is saying that npc buffs aren't needed.I disagree,buffs make a world of difference.

Anyways,ty for responding Adam,u made sum good points,It Is Appreciated

Then there remain two questions

1) Who is able to answer these questions.

2) Why isn't he or she answering these questions.

In Addition what about just character transfer? From a personal point of view, I do not need a multilingual server. I speak english fluently. All I would need and want would be character transfer. Maybe you could relay those questions to someone who can answer them please?

1) An engineer

2) They're busy engineering.

While I understand the anticipation of information about this, we're not going to discuss it until it's been finalized. Call it lessons learned from past experience, but please understand that an issue as sensitive as this requires finality before discussing it in detail.

Agree with the above post. If you need more specific feedback about the CV issue on Gaheris, let me know. I haven't bothered going there in months because it always down when I went.
