Description of SFI that new players see when choosing a server after the tutorial is misleading and should be changed

Recommended Posts

After the tutorial, when new players are choosing a server at the portal, the mouseover text for SFI reads as follows: “Chaos is PvP and all other Freedom Isles are NON-PVP environments for premium and free to play accounts.  Theft is a risk in the Freedom Isles and you have the means and responsibility to secure your property and items using the required locks, structures, fences, and proper management.”

 

No dire warnings about NFI though:  “Freshly launched lands featuring three PvE and one PvP islands.”

 

Theft should be mentioned in the description of both clusters (or neither), so new players do not wrongly assume it is only an issue on SFI.

NFI is part of the Freedom Isles though. The fact that their newer doesn't mean they're not Freedom :)

Obviously, but a brand new players would probably assume something else, so +1

Server clusters definitely need a better write-up. As a new player you have next to no information to go on.

 

It's not just 'theft' being mentioned or not. Statistics and a brief history would be helpful. Something like:

 

"Southern Cluster has 1 PvP server that can be sailed to from the sea-linked, 7 PvE servers, and is connected to the PvP Epic Cluster via Epic Portal. Items and skills do not transfer through the Epic portal. The most recent server released for this cluster was Xanadu in 20XX, linking Eastern SFI with Western SFI. There have been up to x players online at the same time in Southern Cluster, in the last week."

"Northern Cluster has 1 PvP server that can be reached from any of the sea-linked, 3 PvE servers, only via PvP portal. Items and some skills do not transfer through the PvP portal. The most recent server released for this cluster was X in 20XX. There have been up to x players online at the same time in Northern Cluster, in the last week."

"Epic Cluster has 1 all-Kingdom PvP server that can be sailed to from any of the 3 home-Kingdom PvP servers, and is connected to the Southern Cluster (7 PvE and 1 PvP server) via Epic Portal. Items and skills do not transfer through the Epic Portal. These servers were released in 20XX. There have been up to x players online at the same time in Epic Cluster, in the last week."
