Aier (the server i started on and bought headstart access a night before launch for) is the oldest server apart from the original 4 on EU. Telling me i shouldnt have joined a new server when it opened during the last night of headstart is kinda odd.
There are plenty of people on aier but a complete lack of organisation or action outside of pug-zerg events like halycon and hasla farm. If you want "proof" of this just go spend a night observing each servers progress and goings on.
Not what i expected at all from the server meant for those who lost out during the massive headstart rush
My apologies. I posted from work so prior to posting, I did a quick google of "Aier Archeage" and seen a post that said "New Servers Added - Inoch and Aier" and assumed it was one of the new ones added on NA (didn't do further research from work).
I'm not familiar with EU servers so I can't speak on them too much... But you did say it was added after the originals... So it does make sense that the well established guilds would have set up shop on the original 4 at the beginning of headstart, rather than upping and leaving to join a new one last day of head start.
I don't need proof. I believe you. Because the established guilds from beta & other games are likely on the orig servers. Some guilds on your server are going to have to stand out and start making things happen.
You know how I mentioned that there was a lot of land available for at least 2 weeks? Well one thing I will say is, all the established beta guilds rushed for land in 2 places: The starter zones, and Hasla. Hasla was full within days, that was the prime target for guilds that knew what they were doing. Those were taken before the last day of head start by the big guilds who had 1-2 week plans for release, and theres no way in hell they were going to move servers.
Sorry to say though... Your just going to have to wait until some guilds get things going, only way around that if you stay on that server is start making things happen yourself. If you get some things organized on your faction, the enemies will have to organize in return. If they don't, you will be free to profit. If they do, you will have your action.
With that said... I was suggesting to all the people I knew to wait it out and deal with queues to get on the original servers. Just being familiar with how the game is. Not just because of the problems you are having now, but because the nature of the game requires as many people as possible. Server merges are going to be avoided as much as possible in this game, that would be a shit storm with people losing their land etc. Can't do it as easily as other games. The best experience is sadly going to be (likely) found on the original servers most likely, from more established guilds (this will settle over time) and higher populations (this may or may not change over time).

Ive already moved to kyprosa and found a great guild, so im not having issues now. Its just shocking the difference between the two
Players create the content in a game like this so its a pretty valid problem, im worried what the realky new servers look like they must be awful. At least aier has a decent population

If anyones LF a guild on Arenzeb West. Hit me up

Man, finally finished serving out my sentence. 90 mins for stealing garlic is a bit harsh 
Any TL laddies on Kyrios?

So, this is entirely NSFW. But it just happened to me on Archeage after crafting and equipping my new armor.
+ Show Spoiler +Seriously NSFW, literally pixel-boobies. + Show Spoiler + You can clearly see my chest armor equipped..in the item slot...Also happened to my legs but the pants remained, i removed them to fix the bug but then took a screenie lol.

So, anyone from TL still playing this?
They just opened Auroria. I can't get on, and lots of people can't either. It's launch all over again, and you might know how that went down. That in itself is not a huge deal though, few launches go well.
But the real issue is: almost all castles are already claimed on the most populated servers, and to top it off, all land is being insta-claimed. Literally. Hundreds of houses popping up at once, perfectly placed.
I'm not giving this game too much time. The hackers own it.

No such thing as botters or hackers in this game. Ask Capped.

They've postponed it. No ETA as of yet.

Ya. After seeing hackers place down 3000+ pine trees in places real players cant reach... just to tp to thunderstruck tree and tp back out... and then with all of the hackers taking 99% of the land... i quit. Gave away my manor, 2 16x16s. Cant give away my galleon or I would.
heard Auroria land grabbing went pretty much 90% to hackers/scripters at least on my server Aranzeb...am just done.
game had some of the most interesting/exciting Player driven content that MMOs have seen in a while... but the hackers/botters being so out of control. Along with the horrible design decisions being made (like unlocking t2 and t3 hasla weapons..which you arent meant to have access to until 55...) decided i am done.
O well, had a friend of a friend give me 150$ for like 5000 gold worth of stuff. so i got my money back =D.

Just participated in EU's auroria opening.
Our guild got 2/4 castles and our guild alliance in total got 3/4. We donated one of the castles our guild claimed to another in our alliance (via Gkicking the guy and getting him invited to the other guild while he was placing it).
Everyone said west would take all 4 because they outnumber us so vastly, Guess us eastern babies proved them wrong, they only got 1 out of 4!
We celebrated at our guild castle spot with a disco, music and conga lines hahaha. We were super happy that our guild alone managed to cap 2/4 castle spots. Even more so that the only castle that isnt a part of our alliance now is the western factions.

I just started this game.
Seems fun.

Wait a second... I'm getting deja vu...
Didn't you say you were done way back in beta w/ the rants about how the game is so P2W and you wouldn't support that type of game?
I find that funny. Not just because of hearing this before... But also because massing 5k worth of gold, getting a manor AND a galleon... You ended up being richer than the majority of the games population, without spending anything more than the archaeum pack that you mentioned already having purchased way back then... I do recall telling you that you worry too much =p
|
my guild got one castle on our server ( Aier )
another guild that we allied with took the other 3 castles. They built one pack and stole two other packs from the west faction.

Ummm, I'm lvl14 now yet still haven't got a mount quest.
Found that weird, so I checked on the pedia and the quest giver apparently has no quest for me. No question mark over him, nada.
I'm positively sure that I didn't receive the quest and somehow fail it, so what's going on, is that a bug?
*good thing getting the mount manually works at least
|
you probably ran past some quests, which would lead you to the mount guy.

No, I checked on forums, this is a bug.
I wanna be a pirate, is it viable?

Depends on the server, like a lot of things do. Some servers have good pirate populations, some don't.

Archeage is actually a pretty good game. Its fun, and has a lot of stuff to do.
I've been playing on Ollo with a guild of players from Quebec.
Too bad Trion keeps interfering in many aspects of the player driven economy. The recent loot box containing Rumbling Archeum Sappling might be the most obvious.
I was looking for a game with longevity, but its probably too much to ask. Age of Wushu was cool, but again, the same bullshit.
Oh well. We'll see how the game goes, but I do not recommend it to anyone who wants to start playing.
