    Well I guess its better than releasing spaceships as just names and expecting players to buy them. :)

    P.S I must say Central Europe makes no sense unless you are going to have a Southern European server and so on. It is just Europe. Doing separate PvP/PvE servers at this stage could be detrimental, doing too many different different language servers would be. The player base is going to be huge, but it is not limitless.

    Fair enough comment about the missing language indicators but there is no such thing as "PvP or PvE oriented" in New World - they are all PvX with flagging needed to PvP.

    It's hard to have predetermined focus when the whole game is PvP/PvE. Labeling something West coast PvP server, East coast crafting server is just something players will have to come up with themselves. This is something players back in the day did by labeling them unofficial (something) server.

    If Amazon did this then people would complain that the server they had picked as a PvP server sucks and how more pvp is hapening on the RP server, and they wish they could control what server is more pvp focused. Maybe they could create an algorithm based server finder based on ingame activity and some kind of survey as the game is underway to help folks narrow it down later. As for language most will figure out who is where within the first week or so.

    Honestly, the only thing I care about at this point for picking a server for my company is what streamer is picking what server for the 1 week they play the game and all their toxic shills tag along.

    Fortunately NA West only has a few with a low follower count.

    There is a reddit thread discussing. https://www.reddit.com/r/newworldgame/comments/pt5fib/streamers_on_new_world_just_got_updated/



    Thanks for posting that! Definitely something I was looking for, and now I can at least eliminate a few servers!

    Thanks! Looks like the one I have in mind isn't listed, so that's a good thing. These days I feel like you are either dodging people vlogging for their youtube channel in real life, or  avoiding streamers in games.

    BTW, they just posted the list of servers on their official forums with the languages as well as server clusters.

    https://forums.newworld.com/t/list-of-worlds-available-for-launch/236473


    You might want to look at the cluster the streamer servers are on to further distance yourselves from them in case of merges... although by the time mergers happen the streamers will be long gone.

    They also didn't release the server brackets; which servers will have the same Surnames so to speak for eventual merging together as the servers in Beta lists did (Theta was one for example). The group of guilds I'm playing with need that info to decide what server we pick. Horrible rolling out of half assed info, not to mention listing the same server twice...amateur hour.

    See my link two posts above yours. They tweeted the list without detail and posted the detailed list including clusters/"brackets" about 14 hours later.

    So does that make them half-assed amateurs for the full day or just half a day?

    I suppose they named it after the time zone, but yeah, the usual NA / EU is better.

    Let's see how many will actually survive beyond the initial rush. But since it will run on AWS, I guess they will be pretty flexible.

    I think at this time there is only 1k player perserver , which is kinda low , but also why so many , I think they said they would be increasing the load .. We shall see.. But yea i see merges in the future either way

    New World Devs picking server names: *typing fast* Camelot, Olympus, Asgard, Hades... hmm.. *slows down* Yggdrasil.. Eden.. *pause* ... El Dorado, Oceana, Hyperborea, Utopia.... *damn* .... *proceeds to randomly bang on the keyboard for the next 50 server names* aslkjdsfasd, adfsda, aiadiddd, ttaktga, 45565tad... or so it would seem. :)

    Had way more fun in a couple of Betas than I thought I would. Looking forward to launch!

    I bet NA WEST COAST Camelot will be a heavy populated server.

    It would give an indication of how far you were from the servers which would be useful to assess lag, if there are in say Germany, but if they are not Central is pretty meaningless.
