Are we gonna be ready for early access ???????

July 27 2011
I am wondering if the guild is going to be ready for early access? I will be playing during early access, and I hope Stonewall will be ready to start the guild and know what server where going to be playing on .

I think we should agree on one server as soon as Bioware publishes the server list, so that we who preorder all start on the same server with early access. I want to be sure to save my names. ;)

I'm certain I saw a dev post somewhere that stated we can chose which server to play on. I will probably focus on a European one for obvious reasons.

Looks like BioWare already has this planned. It appears that during Phase 3 "Deployment" that they will assign the guild to a server that meets the Guild's setup (RP, PVP, Allied Guilds, etc).

One of the Fleet leaders who plan to play Sith might want to set up Lords of Stonewall to prepare for Phase 2 "Alignment."

Here's the FAQ on BioWare's site.

I'll be doing the pre-order this week. My BF's best friend is a manager at Gamestop so I'm making use of his employee discount for the collectors edition lol.

So the EU part of this guild will end up on a US server. I hope it will be a mixed EU/US server.

Unless Bioware make it so you have to choose either EU or US servers, but can't have both, I plan to have characters on both sides of the Atlantic. I hope that will make it easier for the KoS and LoS guilds to function, as then we can have more that one designated guild server for our worldwide group and we can hold events on any of them, we just have to pick one in advance.

I know it would be great if we could all be on the same server all the time, but if there are lag issues for the Europeans or Austrailians then we could just play on our local guild server until the lag issue resolves. We also have Vent and the IRC channel to chat in if we are on different servers at times, and I'm sure we can come up with an even more user friendly way of chatting online with guild mates on other servers once the game launches.

Only two other EU guild members responded in the 'i pre-ordered' thread. So i hope we'll be able to play on the same server.

Are the chat channels not universal over the different servers?

Technically so does STO... You can chat from Champions, Tribble, or Holodeck (among other locations).

So, this is from the tor website:

"I live in North America but my friend lives in Europe. Will we be able to play together on the same server?

Yes, it will be possible to play on the same server as your friends. Any player of Star Wars: The Old Republic can choose to play on any server. However, if you choose to play on a server outside of your own region (i.e., – playing on European servers from North America, and vice versa), because of natural latency caused by the distance between your client and the game servers, you may find your game performance is impacted."

And that's that I suppose. I guess it'd be better if us on the Europe side play on an American server since there are more of you guys.

I play LOTRO. Recently they removed the EU server and we all play on servers in the US now. It's noticeable from time to time, but not much. The real downside of playing on a US server is that the US crowd is not online at the same time on workdays. So i'm still hoping for more mixed EU/US/rest of the world servers
