To merge or not to merge.
It's been a while since Evony last announced a batch server merges. Possibly because of the problems the more recent super servers are having at the moment.
I thought I'll open the floor & create a thread on what you think Evony should consider when they decide which servers get merged. Currently Evony takes into account the servers activity & cash flow. There may be more criteria but presently they escape me. Feel free to add them if anyone knows what they are.
We could also discuss the pro and cons of mergers. Whether they improve the game play or not.
On a final note, I don't want this turning "please merge s###" thread. The devs are not at our beck and call, this or any other similar thread will not grant you that wish.
no merge while inactives kept on map
Consideration for NOT merging servers.
INACTIVES:
Evony as much as a merger is fun and creates much more activity in a new SS (at least short term) - please do NOT consider merging servers until you have resolve what to do with inactives.
I'm on ss54 and have inactives all around me that have been that way since the first merge taking up space.
Decide what to do with inactives and implement so SS start with cleaner slate.
LATENCY/LAG:
Additionally if evony cannot resolve latency/lag issues on SS then don't merge anymore until it is resolved. Doubling or tripling the number of people affected by slow servers will mean more people stop playing quicker.
If these are resolved - please bring on mergers.
