US Merge Discussion

    Quote from threeflipskat3r

    Group 1 has no 1x uni target, what the fuck is this shit


    Get your shit together GF I will quit before I play either of those two options

    Im beginning to think thats what they want people to do. Bring in new players get them to spend money for a while then leave. We should have been asked what target uni we wanted. Both merges have either go to a slower uni or a faster uni. A smaller uni or a bigger uni. Its so horrible of merge options. Tarazed and ymir should have been target uni's. Big and slow or mid size and fast but not to fast.

    Zapdar :pardon:

    I agree with those wanting a single speed option from the choices for group 1.

    We have 2 single speed unis in the exodus unis list - leave one of them as a target.


    I think otherwise we'll see more people just walking away from this game then it brings back.

    There is only so many times GF can give us the finger before we get fed up and walk away.

    Was there any consultation with the players ? no, didn't think so ...

    This is the usual GF crap, they did this to us before with the Zibal merge (no x1 speed uni option) - a lot of players don't have the time to play speed uni's, could we at least have an option to go to Graveyard and bypass the 60 days waiting time, it's not our fault you can't organise a proper merge.

    both options are really bad for each merge. Ymir has perfect stats other then acs off, for a fast uni. Tarazed has perfect stats for a slow uni. So im going to have to say shame on whomever came up with these options. I really hope [ex-team] Rav3n can get this changed. Cause this is really going to hurt Gameforges income if this goes through as it is.

    Zapdar :pardon:

    Yeah, if this goes through like this, then a graveyard option would be ideal.


    Otherwise there's going to be 60+ days of no playtime/purchases from myself and anyone else from Group 1 who wants to stay at 1x fleet speed.


    If that happens, here's a tool to help folks figure out what Unis they could move to from Graveyard. https://www.expedetector.eu/ogame-merge-tool.php


    Edit: Volans from Group 2 would be an eligible target for those of us doing this, as they will be a year old (making them an available target from Graveyard) in just over a month from now.

    This is extremely discouraging especially the fleet speed. I have invested a lot of hard earned cash re-locate and spread out far and wide as possible over a 9 galaxies universe from our former Wazn 5 galaxy universe. In addition our alliance have created a safe solar system that we filled out all the slots in ONE solar system so to block other players from colonizing our safe solar system giving us more time to be AFK. Collectively our team spent a tremendous amount of DM on those relocation. I have invested in this game heavily on relocation that will just evaporate into thin air.

    Being crammed in 5 solar system and having attacks come at you at 2 or 4 times faster means being AFK for more than 5 min is fleet suicide if enemy planet next or near your planet. In this universe you have at least 22 min to be AFK. Now it's going to be 5 min AFK. This fleet speed is not a game play I want to engage in.

    Good profit will be made on all the players having to buy DM to relocate so alliances have to Re-Do safe solar system and players just having to relocate away from strong fleeter players. A lot on money was invested into this style of game play and this is being taken away from us. I strongly recommend that Game-forge reconsider making Tarazed a TARGET universe, because I will quit like I have done on 12 years ago in U1.UK when you merged inactive universes with U1.UK the most active universe and I dropped rank from being 4th rank to 78th position after the merge.

    this merge totally sucks like others have said,,,,

    i am one of a few uni 1 original members so my last what 15+ years are now wasted time effort and lot of money wasted,

    1 speed uni needs to be an option that why players joined here and other merges since players that have evolved and real life catches up who has time to spend perm on line checking


    THINK THE OPTION FOR TARGET 1 SPEED NEEDS TO BE OPTION OR LOT OF VMODE PLAYERS AND LOSS OF INCOME TO FOLLOW,,, ITS ABOUT TIME LISEN TO THE PLAYERS AND PAYERS ,,,

    It's not just the relocalize option, it's the time to safely be AFK that is important to me and other players.

    Guys, Volan's is already a target universe, and we are a 1x war fleet universe. looking forward to the new challanges.

    What I was getting at above is that with Group 1 having no 1x Fleet Speed target option, some of the larger accounts from Group 1 will VM and go to Graveyard right away.


    Once in Graveyard post-merge, Volans from Group 2 will have just passed a year old, which means that these larger Group 1 accounts can move over to Volans via Graveyard if they desire.


    This is a scenario that hurts players in both Groups, as the Group 1 players doing this will have to VM and go inactive for 60 days, and it hurts Group 2 by introducing several of the larger 1b+ Point accounts into their target unis near the end of March.


    Thankfully, this scenario can be prevented by GameForge adding a 1x Fleet Speed Target option to Group 1.

    Prongs is no longer the COMA. You can see the most up to date team members here.

    Prongs after we lost Queen Leo who ran this server great i thought about quitting too,, you joined and thought would give chance and you did good ,, but lately nothing from you, mods have left, nothing getting done and rules being broken,,,, you need to listen to the players 1 speed uni needed,,


    hell there many players that might join from higher speed uni as they may need to just slow down in life,, seen in over last few merges ...


    sorry just found out Prongs is no longer here and someone called Schneeprinz is now in control... well says it all never seen a post or mention from him/her lets hope you find a voice and listen and post here thanks:hmm:

    Edited once, last by Cuzzer. ().

    Schneeprinz is the CoMa as of November. Not Prongs.


    Hopefully they can jump in to address the issues we have all discussed here to hopefully have Tarazed turned into a Target option for Group 1.

    That is not good news. =/


    I can't say I was that hopeful of much happening, I have even less hope of anything positive happening with this merge then...

    Honestly I am fine turning yidlin into 1x war fleet speed and say peace time fleet to x3 as a compromise , so that way those who want a slower game can have it but those who like faster flights between their own planets get that too


    Thanks Scyith for the cool sig

    u guys suck thats my opinion give me my time and money back and u can take my account

    i willl go to a layer u cant have me playing for years and changing servers constantly

    Not sure who thought this one through... Oh right, G.F. They usually aren't good at listening to the player base. There is a reason that people play 1x uni. I guess this means graveyard for many users & a 60 day break from O-crack; OR completely leaving the game. There are no other options if you don't want to play speed.
