Our game cluster is being divided into two parts: North American and European groups of servers

the time has come!  

Ah... the day I feared has come. I should have just kept on playing single player games....

Do we realy need to split the website and forum? I would like to have 1 forum and Website for EU and USA together.

Also new forum and website dont seem to work. Either links to current website and forum or gives an error.

Let's have a quick and easy transfer  

Servers split - that's really cool...

Website and forum split - no, that's not cool... I don't like this idea.  

I just don't get the Website- and Forum-Split

So every server got his own Website and Forum ? Twice the Numbers of Mods and Super Mods.. Congratulations to this design architecture  

Very agile

website split I could understand, but forums split? that's not good

In other words, SOFTWIPE PLS?

I still dont get Why the choose will have to be pernament? Why dont have selection everytime i start game which server do I have to play on?

I have got lot of american friedns as I do have european ones, and we r used to play together but also everyone of us want ot have the best latency most the time :-(

The reason i think is, that they would have to replicate/synchronize the 2 servers in realtime. That's a big effort in design and infrastructure.

will our forum account also be transfered to new forum, and get banned here, if we choose move to EU server?

it's 2x brutal to split up our social connections that we built in the forum, since we already have no other option except for saying good bye to some ingame friends.

it's an disaster!

No other online game has what you're asking for and neither will this one. As mentioned, It's a huge undertaking technically and not worth the time/effort/money.

just to beat the horse, server split for game= awesome. Forum split....NOT a good idea. Forum is for sharing information regardless of language. By splitting forum you are denying players easy access to knowledge about YOUR game.

It is a good idea if the game picks up and gains more players. For the current size of the community it isn't really necessary but it's good to have. I'm pretty sure I've read somewhere that the EU and US servers might run different versions of the game at some point(s) and that alone will help cut down on confusion on the forums.
If you look at any other MMO game they all have server/continent infrastructure, if you have a server in EU then you have a separate website for that server, this shouldn't be news to anyone, it's just the way things are set up in order to help keep organized.

if there are different companies run the game in different countries, aka by different publishers. forum split is probably unavoidable. maybe it is in this case. otherwise, totally unnecessary, isn't it?

No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No

and

No

Please instead of banning the secondary account, make an option to emerge them. I have 2 accounts with a lot of money and XP.I dont want to play with "account A" on the American server (160+ ping).
Thanks

Server split is good technically, i eager to see my latency on eu server, should be lower than it is now. Also we will not be able to play against many players we are able to play against now.
Spliting the community is not a really good thing to do. We loose friends, competitiors, alles, enemies (on battlefield).
Beside that i think we can access both forums with different accounts. So maybe we wont loose much, just have to take more effort to be present on both places.

Finale!!!! the epic day has arrived, and i can get those split second kills again, 3 hurais for no more lag!!!
