  • Alexina Server Merge?

    Ok so I am probably going to get some hate for this, but yes I am hell'a salty over the merge and so are many other people I know and for good reason. So here are the problems I have seen with the server merge and why Alexina should 100% be involved in this.

    1 - Is the merge good? Yes. Do I care? No, not until Alexina is brought into the picture. This is where my first issue is. Call me selfish, but if Alexina isn't involved I don't care for the maintenance time. I am going to take a gander at a bare minimum of 8-hour maintenance for this server merge and I am going to also assume that Alexina is forced into this. Is Alexina going to see any compensation for a long maintenance time that doesn't affect them and leaves a majority of its players salty? No, probably not. If this isn't the case, then I will apologise in advance. But it would also be nice for Nexon to confirm this and also give an estimation on the maintenance time for this server merge.

    2 - I heard a lot of people blaming server loads and being able to handle the player count as an excuse for not incorporating Alexina into the merge. However, I don't think (even with the merge of all 4 currently running servers) that we would hit prime time pre-2014 Alexina server.

    3 - "As Alexina is the server with the healthiest population" This is very true. But does ample population account for everything? No. Looking into active players and end game content, I would assume that Nao server would almost double the end game and active playing population of Alexina.

    4 - From friends and guild, I can say that Alexina players are returning to old accounts on Tarlach/Ruari/Mari and/or are creating accounts on the new Nao server and transferring to Nao. This will ultimately leave Alexina in the dust. Furthermore, I am going to guess that Nao will become the new 'recommended' server, meaning Alexina will be getting very few new players. So, while it is currently a healthy population, this will not be permanent. Why not just merge all of the servers? I imagine it costs to run these servers. would it not also cut the costs for Nexon to merge everything?

    5 - "We look forward to the new memories that you will be forming on Alexina" BUT NOTHING HAS CHANGED?!

    To be honest, I am salty and I don't intend to transfer to Nao. But Alexina has also wanted this merge and I'm kind of sick of seeing Nexon making so many low blows and bad decisions. I'm not the only salty player, but seriously. Are we not even going to remotely consider Alexina?
