    if the merge "happens" i don't think they can deal with the influx of players per channel cap.

    and

    my magic eight ball says mabi is going to follow what happened to the Vindi servers

    all servers become one

    NA mabi and EU mabi

    names are going to be by account age and level of the player


    None the less im not stressing out about the merge if and when it happens...... we could just pull at our hair and scream the world is ending while drinking a pint of old english xD

    I'll drink to that!

    The bank tabs get deleted aswell for the characters transferring

    If all characters on an account, are on only one server now, then a server merge will not effect their bank situation. The only folks that could be effected are ones with characters on different servers on the same account. Here there are two possible errors Nexon can make; one not so bad, and one REALLY bad.

    The not so bad one is that post merge the banks still act like they are still segregated by server. So, say, your Tarlach character goes to the bank and sees their old Tarlach gold amount and only the accounts of their other Tarlach characters. Your Mari characters only see the old Mari banking situation, and so on. This would be a bug, to be sure, but not a disaster. Nothing would be lost, and then it could be fixed. So, an inconvenience for a bit.

    The bad possibility is that the full bank merge goes through with all characters able to access the same "bank", but with one big problem, the gold is not properly merged and it only reflects the gold of one of the servers say. While the items in the bank will be unaffected, the gold could get lost. The reason is items in the bank are tied to the character record, while the gold in the bank is tied to the server record. The character records database has already been merged since the beginning. Anyway if this happened then it would be really bad. So they would have to ensure that up to four different bank-worths of gold are properly summed into one accurate total.

    This game will not last long enough to even see a merge happen.

    I’m putting my bet that we’ll get the merge by summer or they wouldn’t have even touched on it at the campfire event if you see the way he responded to the crowd it was clear we want it and they acknowledged that I read the forums almost everyday yet I haven’t played in almost a year now I can speak for myself and some good friends also on hiatus us beta testers are waiting for this merge so we can get back to what we would call the game being playable again I only speak for myself and a personal group of friends. On another note there’s no way we’re going to have a merge and get everything we want out of it some people are going to be unhappy no matter what and some problems will mostly likely occur as stated above.

    Summer sounds like a bad time to do it with G23 due by then.

    Yep, I'm sorry but I am gonna have to agree with all the lootbox crap going on. They blocked Belgium from the cash shop, and they are going to block Netherlands too.

    Yep, but I've been saying 2019 just to give some leeway. There are other signs pointing to a merge this year that have already been detailed. One hopes that Nexon would anticipate all problems first before performing a merge. Threads like this can be useful if any pitfalls might occur to the community that didn't to Nexon.

    In all fairness, it's been painted on the wall for quite a while. In fact, they've been warned about it last year.

    Only you are wrong because the merge could happen this year sometime. The game has more than a year left. Let's not spread FUD now.

    I will :) I look forward to the server merges, and g23-25 and to the VIP update. I don't let FUD damper my game play.

    At this point, the way the lootbox law is being dealt with, it's not even FUD anymore. It's a reality.
