Posted June 5, 2020 I'm assuming they'll be seperate from the others at first before opening them up to allow crossing over, or are they going to be connected immediately upon launch to allow players to move freely to the older servers? If there's been any information about that yet, or is it still all in the dark? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If there's been any information about that yet, or is it still all in the dark? Indeed there has been information on this since the day of announcement, only new accounts are allowed on the steam server thus meaning you wont be able to cross into them and they also wont be able to cross into old servers. They will not be connected to the rest of the wurm online freedom/epic to keep the economy & accounts from the older servers bringing anything over and ruining a fresh world which is the point of the steam release. So if you want to play on the steam servers you will have to make a new account and select to log into them through on the launcher selector. The accounts all share the same username and account database though so you will have to come up with a new name. Unless they surprise us with ability to clone names onto the new servers like on the test servers. As for your question about opening the servers at a later date to old wurm, the devs have stated its highly unlikely to ever happen and it would have to be super dead to do so.

Posted June 5, 2020 I have read those quotes as well. I guess you slipped in your own opinion then in "and it would have to be super dead to do so." 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grasping at straws buddy, I know full well that the only reason they would ever merge them would be if was dead. Every person (five) I know who are coming back are only doing so because the old accounts aren't going to be around to ruin the economy. So if Wurm picks up hundreds of new subs it would be very very stupid to connect the servers 1 year down the road. Retro is just letting you guys down softly and I am just handing the reality as it stands. Occam's razor Edited June 5, 2020 by Jeston Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are trying to pull a new group of players, and the most foolish thing they could do is open the servers and immediately nullify all the economy of the steam server a year down the road. For what reason anyway? so some old vet accounts can come in and stomp people with their skills and supplies. This reinforces my dead only reasoning.
