I really enjoyed this game until my server was merged with 2 others recently.
I waited for a new server to start and played with other new characters which made it fun as we were all equal (sort of).
But now we have been merged with 2 other servers that have both been going longer than ours.
In my opinion this is totally unfair.
They then run a competition with rewards being given to the strongest player and strongest guild.
Well surprise, surprise the rewards are going to go to the strongest of the oldest server and we have no chance of gaining on them.
This just makes the strongest players stronger and the others weaker.
We also, no longer have any chance in Guild battle, World Boss, arena duels etc.
And now many players are leaving to start again on new servers (not wise as a merge will probably happen again) or stopping playing completely.
I wrote a ticket to R2 regarding this and their response was to post in the forum as they would rather hear from the "community" than from 1 individual.
So here is my suggestion:
1) Stop creating new servers and concentrate on the servers you have and have new players join the existing ones.
2) Stop merging servers and allow players to grow with each other, and if new players join they already know that there are older stronger players.
3) Split up all merged servers back to their original ones.
There is already competition between servers with the Arena 3v3, Battlegrounds and cross-server ranking etc , so why join them up.
I know some say that with the mergers, this brings more players and more targets to loot for example and more players to duel against etc.
But from my observations, yes there are more players to loot but there is also more players looting them so most are on protection, so no change.
But also there are actually less targets, as after the merge all the inactive players (and the ones that didn't play after the merge) have been left back in the starting area and inaccessible
Also yes there are more players to duel, but it just means there are more players that you can't beat.
I also know that some may think I'm just complaining due to the fact that I am no longer in the top ten players.
I'm not, I just think it is unfair to put miss-match servers together and expect them to be the same standard.
So in my opinion, I believe it is a bad move for R2, as I see players leaving which doesn't bring in any money for them.
Which at the end of the day that is what they want as they don't run without money.
So, please, please, please, please, take my (and many players I've talked to) opinion and listen to us.
Stop merging servers, and put the servers back as they were.
