Guild needs answers please!

Finally a decent looking Sci-Fi MMorpg!

2 quick questions!

1.) My guild is made up of almost 200 people made up from people on every corner on the planet, will we be able to play on the same server? (I hope so...)

2.) Will there be any player made city building or housing, like in SWG?

 

Thanks and good luck.

    Hiyas there,

    I'll try to answer your questions to the best of my ability:

    1.) My guild is made up of almost 200 people made up from people on every corner on the planet, will we be able to play on the same server? (I hope so...)

    If all of your guildies agree to play on the either the EU or US servers, you certainly can play together at Launch.  There are US and EU versions of the game (serial keys) available and thus separate US (DC or LA servers per Mod CuppaJo) and EU (Germany) servers dependent on your serial key.  A UK player posted that he gets a 150-300 ping on the EU server and 500-600 on the US (and personally I experienced the same vice versa playing from the States.)

    2.) Will there be any player made city building or housing, like in SWG?

    A few months ago, one of the Devs posted the following response to a similar question, but it's definitely NFS (not for ship):

    1. Clan controlled territories that can be fought over are not going to make ship unfortunately. But that does seem like a natural extension to our clan vs. clan PVP and our control points system right?

    If I find anything else out (or any conflicting news) I'll update the post for ya.

    2) No, they canned player housing over a year ago, and it has no signs of returning.

    A little update for the OP as promised.

    This was posted yesterday by Mod CuppaJo and relates to your 1st question:

    As many of you know, we had planned to segregate the US and EU communities in the near future and going forward for launch. However, after having a worldwide beta that allowed players to play on either server with their friends and guildmates on both sides of the pond, we have decided NOT to segregate players but instead to allow you to login and pick where you want to play - US or EU.



    We will still have servers located in both the US and the EU (US servers are West and East Coast - EU servers are in Germany) and events will be run like they have been in beta - US servers have events during US primetime and EU servers will have events in EU primetime.



    We have a few support issues to work out - such as /bug working no matter what server you are but we feel this is the right decision for our player community.

    That's very smart and considerate of them!

     Good Job.
