Adding new servers is great, BUT give players FREE Transfers to THOSE servers

[1nsane]

Adding 2 new servers is good start, but really doesnt help if you dont give them Free Transfers to those servers obviously! Players have already commited a lot of time into 1 or multiple characters, they arent just going to throw that away. Give the players from those specific timezone an incentive to move servers, ergo free Server Transfer and maybe some addiotional bonus, This could be anything from X amount of Adena or Ncoin, cosmetics or whatever.

Just dont expect people to start from scratch when they have already commited to a server!

Yep, the new servers are 100% pointless without server transfers or people could have moved to Aden if it was just about starting again.

2 weeks is not really a lot of time if you look at the big picture. this game requires literally years to get to the highest level.

on the other hand it's reasonable to ask to transfer anything you bought with ncoin or real money

but i find it unreasonable to let high level characters transfer, because it wouldn't be a fresh start for  everyone.

2 Weeks is a long time, some people have unlimited funds. But everyone has limited time.

It wouldnt be a new server, it would a redistribution of an existing playerbase of 1 server, which is WILDY overpopulated, mainly due to allowing people to dual/tripple box. NCsoft clearly wants people to dual/tripple box. So the overpopulating is mainly a Policy issue, not an actual supply/demand issue. But like I said, NCsoft clearly doesnt have any intention to change their policy. So splitting up an overcrowded server is their best option.

An old game called Rappelz had a similar issue, years ago you were only allowed other accounts if you had multiple PCs, eventually they said bleep it and allowed multiboxing years ago. Now its literally 1~2 accounts of buffers, the main account, and possibly a leecher account (for power leveling an alt.) So now everyone except VERY few people just solo with all the character attainable buffs in the game and are stronger than entire parties.
