Server Shards
« on: January 08, 2011, 01:04:34 AM »
Well I searched a few different terms didn't find any threads about this, and also I'm new here so please if I put this in the wrong place move it for me.

So I was wondering about how the servers will be set up, will it be one server which every player plays on together (EveOnline), will it be a few different servers, and when you register you select one and that's the one that you're stuck on, or would it be lots of different servers and you can transfer your character between them whenever you want.

In my opinion it would be best if it was just one big server, though I'm not sure if this is possible for you guys to link your different servers together across continents (America and Europe), this would make it better for continuity as you can play with the same people and it would be the same for everyone. The second option would be alright, but my problem with that would be that some shards would end up being stronger than others, and also you wouldn't be able to play with/against your friends on other shards. I wouldn't like the third option at all as it would have zero continuity from session to session and it wouldn't form any resemblance of community, and also then the shards would end up being groups 'property' and would be controlled by that group.

Well thats just my two cents, Ill edit if i want to make it three ;)

There will be two servers, one American, one European, and they wont be linked together in anyway
