Since the moved all the NA servers to one location now I think we could see a major merge of all NA Servers onto one. Luna being merged into Franz.
NA/Euro will be down to 3 servers and essentially on life support. L1 has had three servers for a long time so I think that is where they going with L2.
Also CT2 Epilogue may be our last major update. Since next update is called CT2 Freya, how can you continue a story after the Epilogue, I am sad to say but we will only see minor changes for now on.
The inter-server wars will not work here in NA/Euro with 3 servers so it be pointless to bring the new content here.
Once my clan loses its clan hall with the merge I will be done with L2.
no offense but u guys are totally wrong about them coming to NA/ Euro servers. Most of them will go play private servers. lol at crying about clan hall. forts are better
Hopefully this shows the NC NA staff that they need to put up some greater efforts in keeping the subscription rate up, and increase the player base. That way we dont lose so much revenue that it forces them to shut down servers and cut staff.

Your on drugs if you think a fort is better then a Rune, Aden or Goddard clan hall. Seriously take some of your meds.
You realize you cannot own two forts but you can own a fort and a clan hall.

Only our stupid NA translators called the last update "epiloge", the Koreans called it "Gracia Plus". There was never any mention of "epilogue" in Korea. In the recent interview in Korea, they announced quite a lot of big changes and 4 updates for next year.

Fort is better because at least with fort everyone can own it, with clan hall, a dead clan or alt clan can own it for ever, if at least the system force the clans lost their hall every week and fight to get it again or people can registed to siege random hall like fort, it would be nice :)

They'd have to start new servers and guarantee that bots would be stopped. Neither they'll do, so not surprised about the imbalance of priv/official communities.
If they would, I think you could kiss private servers goodbye entirely though. Too bad they're worse than EA when it comes to giving a about their customers.

So your against legit clans from having a perm. home ok that makes no sense what so ever.

IN KOREA is the key words. No one said NA/Euro will get anymore updates at all. See where this is going?
The have Battle Tournmanents and Vitamen managers GM run events in game we will not see any of this content. Most of the major changes revolve cross server fighting get it?

sly, you didnt understand what was written.
when a clan takes a hall and the leader is banned - that clan has the hall pretty well for good or until merge. nobody likes this.
since forts give players opportunity to have CHbuffs, CH res, an instanced dungeon for raiding, and pvp action once a week all for a fraction of the cost of a CH, theres no downsides, even if a clan leader is banned.

Say to me how many legit clan have clan hall vs dead clan have clan hall only in your server ??
Can you guarantee me than the clan hall in gludio and gludin are owned by active clan ??
And what happen if the clan hall's owner quit the game, but didnt sold or didnt gave his clan hall or didnt gave his leadership or didnt dissolved his clan and have maybe 1 billion in his warehouse clan ?? in my server we have this situation, 2 leaders have quit the game and have clan hall in aden and giran and many millions in their clan warehouse, because this 2 dead clans have 2 good clan hall
Difference is some bot clan can't kick you out of your clan hall every night. Whats to stop some bot clan giving ur fort to a 1 person alt clan?
On my server 25 active clans own clan halls. 4 or 5 alts and 2 dead clans. So obviously my server would be greatly effected by a merge since those 25 main clans will all want to get a clan hall with the 20 or so from the other 4 servers too.

Then don't join a clan where the leader bots, I care too much about my clan to ever bot my toon and I laugh when clan leaders get banned for botting like morons.
There is no risk of banning if your legit. If your not legit then its moot point of getting a fort or clan hall because you still lose the clan which if is level 8 or 9 with clan skills is just as big loss as a dead clan hall. Your clan will never take a castle with a banned leader everything in the warehouse is lost also.
God so many people are surprisingly negative. I can understand looking at facts but it seems once one person QQs about something everyone has to jump on board.... HOPEFULLY this close brings more to NA/Euro servers.... If they do go to private servers, well then that sucks. And I do agree that there are a vast majority of players in private servers, however until some drastic changes come to our servers they wont come. Oh well, if this brings us an extra 100 people I'd be happy.
If anything I would think its a good wake up call for NC NA to run their servers with a little effort to aiding the player base, and actually keeping them rather then catering to bots in hopes that they can make more money. I use to play a game however that a Korean based company actually took back their game servers from a NA company for doing a terrible job at running them lol...

Nice 7 Halls unused :)
I dont know how it is in your server, but in my server at least 2 - 3 fort dont have owner, so if clan hall have same system than fort, probably 2 -4 clan hall will not have owner in my server :)
You have allies, so your alliance cant rush a fort while than the bots sleep in your server ?? :)
And so i prefer dont have clan hall for some hours - 24 hours, than dont have clan hall for ever, because the clan hall's owner doesnt have the decency to sold or gave his hall before leave the game :mad:
LII SEA was just another company " renting " LII like Russia is now , NC simply isn't renewing their lease , has nadda to do with us. And after Freya , which is just a add on installment , there's a whole new chronicle , from what I have read " Children Of Shillien " , or " Scion's Of Shillien " ? Anyway's this isn't even close to the end.
NcSoft should offer to transfer their toons to one of the other companies/ servers out there. I am sure they would retain more people than forcing them to restart from scratch on our servers.
If, what we want after all, is more players, this shouldn't create too much of an issue except for unique items.
