Has an actual dev ever even said anything about a green server?

This seems like one of those things that players speculated about so much that it started to become something a lot of people think is for sure coming when there is no evidence.

years ago sirken mentioned the idea of a green server on his stream, and the masses ran with it...

that server is just around the corner guys, hang on!!

I’m more interested in when Chardok will drop. I took a break for a year and upon returning I thought, surely the revamp will be out by now. Nope.

Have the Devs even given a remote idea about when Green or ever Chardok will drop?

They took seven years to complete Velious. If you do some math on the number of zones in Velious vs. the number of zones involved in the revamp ...

... and then factor in that changing existing content is harder (or at least figuring out how it works is harder, since there's so much other information about the other version of the zone to wade through) ...

... and then factor in that the devs may have burned themselves out on Velious and are doing Chardok 2.0 more slowly ...

... and then factor in that the devs probably have lots of stuff of stuff "on the back burner", and that they may well delay Chardok 2.0 to get some of that stuff done first ...

... then you'll have at least "a remote idea" [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

nobody ever said there was going to be a green server, somebody said it would be a cool idea to think about years down the road, and it was said pre-velious.

Well, they completed Velious didn't they? And presumably even with all the factors I accounted for, Chardok 2.0 still won't take longer than Velious.

So I'd say < 7 years for Chardok 2.0, which is certainly better than never. As for Green, there are still minor patches after Chardok 2.0 that need completing, plus that backburner stuff I mentioned, but I think 1-7 years after Chardok 2.0 is released is a good estimate.
