Thread: Who decided which servers to merge together?

  1. #1

    Default Who decided which servers to merge together?

    I really think that we should have been merged with people in the server either side of our own.. not one 5 places away.

    By merging 90 with 95 you've left the players of 95 at a serious disadvantage and instead of making new friends, its turned into server vs server and a lot of the players have already left simply because they havent got a hope in hells chance against alliance and players with so much more of everything than them who're intent on destroying everyone from server 95.

    Quite frankly, Evony dropped a ball with this one, severely.

    Servers right next to each other don't have to be equally matched- it depends on how the server developed.
    Frankly, I don't know what Evony did, but all I can conclude is that at least some statistics were used. Who knows? Maybe they used a misleading measure of central tendency somewhere.

    But, just to show an example:
    s30, s31, s34, s35, and s36 were merged into SS5.
    s30 did have the advantage, but No. 2 in the power lineup was s34, No. 3 s36, and then 31 and 35...
    See the huge differences between adjacent servers?
    s31 was practically destroyed in legacy for the first few weeks (but it's grown back just as well- there's hope for s95 yet)

    (s31 was not competitive due to the security caused after the Jaq empire came to power, which kept a whole lot of players alive with small armies)

    Yes, hope.. when we've been told s90 intend to force us all out of the game... which they're likely to do to a lot of the smaller players.

    Something needs done to even the chances

    the simple fix for that would be for the smaller players to go from a passive just farming game to a more aggressive game building up their armies.. its really just as simple as that.

    Why are you at a severe disadvantage, and why would merging you with a server numerically adjacent to yours negate that?

    Yo, Dawnseeker, you are getting quite mean lately. Usually you are a bit nicer then you have been!
    Anyways, I agree with the guy, 5 servers worth of time to build up is quite an advantage. Go with like 87 and 88 together 89 and 90 together and so forth, dont do this other crap by giving 5servers worth of time advantage to another server.
    Please don't send me hateful PM's you make me cry........ from laughing so hard.

    Post Merge us.

    @Dawnseeker

    Why doesn't Evony Merge Server1...? Everyone on the server wants a merge? Why don't you do it? I though Evony wanted to give the customers what they want? Guess not. if you sent a mail to Server with a link to a poll asking them if they wanted a Server merge more then 70% would say yes!. Just do it already, or you more the likely will loose players.

    Why are we at a disadvantage?

    Post-merge, top 20 alliances.. highest on s95 is now 4th, there are only 3 others in top 20.

    The power balance has come out tipped in their favour.. Evny should have tried to match servers better.. this one is ridiculously one-sided and has upset a lot of people.

    I think the problem is the "us vs. them" mentality you seem to have. You're all on the same server now, so there's no reason you can't join alliances with players who used to be on another server, or recruit them to your alliance. There's really not even any way for them to know what server you're from unless you tell them.
