RP-PvP servers PST... Ajunta Pall transfers...

I'm beginning to suspect that they are limiting transfers to between server type and region because they might not be able to make em work otherwise atm. Personally, I don't see much difference at all between, at least, the pvp and pve servers and their rp cousins. It's the same damn sandbox with a different sign.

What is the point of segregating the two? I could see that it might allow for more like minded individuals to congregate, but isn't it more important to have people to play with? not like we rp in warzones (or hardly anywhere else for that matter, with a few exceptions). Not like we can't rp in any of the other servers, they are both the same game structure, afterall.

The whole timezone thing is ridiculous. People play at all different times regardless of the timezone, by merging two timezones, we can only hope to have a more consistent population level. And the people talking about ping, as long as things haven't changed (and i don't think they have since i just logged into a west coast and an east coast to check) the servers are all in the same place this means that you will have the same ping, no matter what server you choose, east or west coast.

I guess they want to stagger things, but how hard is it to say we are offering free transfers (ideally from any server) to these 5 or w/e servers. You might have to wait a couple days depending on queue volume, if you want to transfer somewhere else, then you need to pay a small fee. population problem solved, getting all your toons one server solved, getting to play with your friends and family who are currently scattered on different servers solved.

They could at least give us a heads up on what servers are going to be able to transfer where at the end of the process, even if they are staggering it, so we can plan ahead. Seriously, seeing how they handled this makes me wonder *** is going on over there and why does my fiancee insist on playing this poorly managed, developed, and still buggy game (some bugs are still here from beta...)

Please don't post misinformation. The East/West coast servers are most definitely not in the same place, and haven't been since beta.

That's too logical a solution. Dev's minds asplode!

But what they should really have done is give people alternative servers. So RP servers could choose to come to AP, or PvP could.

I didn't, really, since I qualified it with "as long as things haven't changed", which they have. I guess since I'm in CO atm, I end up with the same ping for east and west coasts. Alas, I guess there is no hope for the RP servers

I think the only way Bioware can really screw over Ajunta Pall is by doing nothing and leaving us alone.

As long as they give us some kind of server to xfer to, be it PvE, PVP, RP-PVE, or RP-PVP we will take it and for the most part be happy with it.

Whichever decision they make will screw you the most, that's the decision they'll make.

Most likely, AP will have to wait for paid.

I just got a e-mail stating available servers for transfers is Ven Zallow as the only destination server for RP-PvP, plus others. So it seem they are not restricting choices for us.

And that's why I cancelled my account. EA/BW could F up a wet dream and they prove that everytime they patch or make a design decision that's a 180 degree out from common sense.
