Unlikely chance of new server

[Rhambuk]

It seems as though green has been out long enough.
All of the patches and updates must be sorted and prewritten
Starting a new server should be easy enough?
Let's see it. I can't wait much longer

I know it will be years minimum

Research some bugs and get them posted up. Take a look at that forum area and see: there has been lots of updates to the patch time line recently. It is not sorted nor prewritten as you seem to believe.

My personal prediction is that a new server will only come after the devs implement additional overhauls, they have specifically called out that some spell lines (i.e. pacify) have unclassic resist tables that need to be revamped. The player base has also been vocal about concerns over the P99 bowquest mechanics being unclassic.

I believe a new server will come once the devs have executed on everything they are currently aware of that is unclassic. Once they feel they have no additional obvious classic improvements/adjustments it will be time to unleash the most classic new server ever.

Its a good sign that we've seen an increase in patch deployment lately, feels like the devs knocked out all the low laying fruit and are turning towards digging into these last few core issues that take more effort to tackle.

But Its a BAD sign, server numbers drop dailey, used to be around 1k on, now its 700-800 peak (Unless XP Bonus is up) Time to bite the bullet, merge green and blue, do a Green 2.0 please for the love of all that is Holy!!!

Yes, Green 2.0

It's possible the CSR staffing update recently is a sign of a server merge at some point this year or next. They definitely need a healthy CSR to handle all the inevitable issues that will arise with a merge. They wouldn't want to wait too long either, since CSR staff can always choose to move on.

Considering how bad the new TLP server in May is going to be, I'm wishing for a New Green more than ever.

There's always hope. But we don't know if the devs and guides can spare enough time for a new server launch. And we don't know the details of the agreement between DBG and P99.

We don't know anything except they're still working on the project including stuff from way earlier in the timeline suggesting a new server is still in their plans. But people are always returning to p99 and it's a tough choice if you're established on blue whether or not it's worth it to restart on green. That question depends a lot on if/when a merger and/or new server is coming. I'm sort of in that boat myself.
