The Chronicles of Spellborn

Well as most of you guys will know the chances of UK players and other EU players playing together are very slim,I thought I would start this thread just too show the devs how much this is a bad idea and how we want to have ALL european players on the same servers.

Please sign if you feel the same or at least support the idea.

Thanks guys.

This game has it's own forum and website, I think it's better to post this there

I am aware of that,I am also aware this sort of thread would be closed there!

Further more I am very aware the devs check this site so it would still make a statement.

Said the same on the official boards IP Blocking is a horrendous idea, why would I want my play limited to people who are 6-9hours behind/ahead of me - absolutly ridiculous.

If this is not addressed I won't be giving this game a chance, I only need to wait a little while until: Earthrise, Darkfall, and Aion come out where I will be able to actually play with people in my own frackin' timezone.

And tbh this is exactly where this thread belongs as it would just get locked on the official forums, and also to forewarn any UK/EU people who were thinking of buying the game to play together!

Just to clarify IP Blocking is NOT written in stone yet....chances are it MOST LIKELY will be implemented come launch - its only with threads like these that the crappy choices devs make will have a hope in being changed.

So yea my advice if the IP Blocking affects you or your guilds gameplay - stay away until there is official word that it will be changed. Shame really as TCoS really did look promising. Lets hope the Devs wake up and smell the poop they've smeared on themselves.

Please could an official from TCOS please answer for me in this thread this question:

As a UK player, will I be able to play with my fellow Europeans? Yes or No?

As I said in the other thread - most likely not. 100% answer I can give only when I receive that information from our higher-ups - and then we will make an official statement regarding that.

I would like to petition the Devs with our issues but first I would like to see who woud join us!

1. NA servers will mean UK players with suffer with time lapses and Lag issues.

2. Unless there is 24 hour GM support - we'd be logging out as they logged in.

3. Same iwth the community - we'd be toddlig off to bed as they began to play

4.We are separated from a community already built on the forums and through other games as we presumed, being part of the EU officially, we would be included in the EU server list.

The UK as a seperate server would struggle through lack of gamers, so this is not feasable either.

I feel quite rejected at the moment, I've supported this game on the forums, promoting the hard work being done, jollying on the people who were tiring of waiting. I've promoted the game with my friends and other gamers I know and feel like somehow we're not good enough.

I know there are others who share these thoughts so can people keep it clean but add your name on the list and clearly state any other particular issue you have with the proposed server split.

I agree with Foofea I dont want this thread to turn into a "slanging"match,keep it clean guys!

Just post your thoughts and/or worries.

The devs do read this forum,I know that for sure so make it worth while,

thanks again.

i want UK players in my guild damnit!

Now all the English speaking European guilds are screwed over because of this move

/agree

Not true, alot of the older mmos pre wow and horizons, before this whole world segregation crap started are still running perfectly well for both EU, US and asian players with little or no lag. The EU people I know that play in the US wow servers, have less lag then when they played on the EU servers.

can't really argue much there,  24 hour GM support or atleast close to it is a must.

Personally I think joined servers for people all over the world is better for the community. The servers will always be populated, basicly be no off peak hours, meaning you'll always be able to find someone to group with, rp with ect. no matter the time.

4.We are separated from a community already built on the forums and through other games as we presumed, being part of the EU officially, we would be included in the EU server list.

Personally I'm an advocate for non segregated servers, I don't play mmo's to play with the guy down the street, but to play with people from all over the world. Some of my fondest mmo memories are form meeting people from all around the globe and just talking like we'd bumped into eachother at the mall.

I hate the trend wow and horizons started, because it means that i'm not able to play any new mmo with any of the people I met in games like SWG, FFXI, SL, E&B, EVE ect.

IMO deviding EU and US in what ever way they do hurts the community, take WAR as a perfect example, EU servers are all but deserted, while US servers are going strong.

yes I know I went alittle off topic, =p
