Good 5 minute or so segment on what to expect on Red 99.

I know magikarp posted the cliff notes (thanks!), but I encourage people to listen to the explanation because I go in depth on what actually happened and why it went wrong.

Would also like to add these changes are going in soon because Rogean dropped everything he was doing and is now working to make this a reality. After the Red Q&A the other night I had mentioned to him that the Developer we had originally asked to do these changes had gotten busy with RL stuff, and asked if it was possible for me or someone else to code the changes in. He got back to me this morning, asked what it is we wanted to change, and got to work on it right away.

Keep in mind there's a long list of things Haynar and Rogean are currently working on in the code for both servers. Their plate is really full right now ramping up for Velious, fixing known bugs, and preparing the servers/zones for large amounts of people/activity (including pvp!) but he's taking the time out to make sure this all goes in as soon as possible.

We're really thankful because the entire development team has been working their ass off to get us ready for winter. Stay tuned for additional info, big promotional campaigns, and a better box for everyone.

Thank you Rogean and Haynar (and ofc Deru and Sirk). Red needed a little love from the devs.

Now let's get that "Preferred Server" nonsense sorted out and we'll be looking pretty great [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

This. The actual population here DAILY is going to be higher than EZ-Server's box army. Absolutely no reason we shouldn't be up there too.

How does EZ make it up there? That 60 players is probably 10-15 real people.
