Does this mean we have Rolfland and Retropolous?

Yeah indeed, so it would be great to have my name on the steam servers too.

In my opinion, the servers should pay some homage to the homeland of Rolf and Notch as thanks to them for creating such a wonderful gaming experience.

 

Frihet  for the PVE server- literally Freedom in some Scandinavian languages and pays some homage to the original Wurm servers that we all love!

Advertising slant: If you want the freedom to experience Wurm and live in an almost civilised land choose Frihet.

 

Valhalla for the PVP server- the place In Norse mythology, Valhalla is a majestic, enormous hall located in Asgard, ruled over by the god Odin. Chosen by Odin, half of those who die in combat travel to Valhalla.

Advertising slant: Who wishes to live on this server to create, defend and ultimately expand a kingdom across the land?  Will you become the leader of a successful kingdom or ultimately die a brave death in the hope of being elevated to Valhalla?

Well speaking from experience, *cough Xanadu cough*, hahaha, I predict they will be called "Port Onody", and Zed Zed Nine Plural Zed Alpha". My other two longest running deeds. Yes, yes, I'm kidding.

I like Spolmits idea of honouring Rolf and Notch. So my real two guesses would be...

Rolfing - verb - treat (a person) using Rolfing, a proprietary term for a massage technique aimed at the release and realignment of the body.

Notched - adjective - Notched - marked with a notch or notches.

Can prolly do better or simpler, or..  Scandinavianize (sp?) the names.


Rolfström and Notchberg

 

Edit: ström =  stream  -  berg = mountain     -  at least this is my understanding of the meanings, sorry if incorrect

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. 

This is utter nonsense and fake news. The devs and team have stated that there are no plans whether or not connecting the new servers to the existing ones.

That is something very different from stating that there are plans (or decisions) for not connecting the new servers to the existing ones. The same thing as absence of evidence etc. ..

 

It is obvious that keeping the new servers seperate for quite a time is a sane and necessary measure to prevent them being steamrolled by the matured community of the existing clusters. But especially in case the new launch succeeds and a new community part is flourishing and maturing, there is no point why the members of the new community should be barred from visiting the old lands, participating in community events like impalongs and unique slayings, even resettling.

 

As to the names, I have no idea. Let us see.

You are wrong. Rolf already stated merging is the goal eventually.

Thanks. That one escaped me. And what he writes makes sense and strengthens my argument.

Funny name ideas you folks all have :). As to the release date, let me speculate: Much depends on the Celebration move and its outcome. If all goes well, the new servers will be created on that hoster's platform.

My prediction on Steam release is August 2020, right before back to school. Bad idea given they will miss out on all those people out from school with nothing to do, but I honestly don't see them releasing it in the end of June update since they haven't announced anything yet, and it would be foolish to release it in the dark of night.

My guessing is:

PVE: Freedom

PVP: Wild

 

Throw your money at me now, or when you realize im correct - up to you. :)

I hadn't seen that red underlined quote before, which after reading it is really disheartening. Sounds like merging them is inevitable as opposed to the many mentions of "we'll see how it goes" or "possibly". I will have to do some reconsidering on the two 12 month premium characters and 100 silver I was planning on going into Steam with. This is really unfortunate, I was really looking forward to it.

I am positive the merge wont happen until numbers on the servers are abysmal, at which point it would be a good thing to merge. Look at Epic at the moment and tell me a merge wouldn't be a good thing for them? I rather get merged than end up with two other guys logged in on the entire server.

 

Don't lose hope yet, its worth it.
