I just wanted to know, as I am also looking forward to play this game as soon as it comes out, if it will have servers (most likely to) and if these servers will be continent concentrated, north americans play in a N-A community, europeans in a EURO community, etc. Does anybody know?

Yes, there will be servers in North America (Austin) and servers in Europe (Brighton). And there will be 3 kinds of servers, German, French and English ones, at release, here in NA/EU.

So technically, if I play in the european servers, I won't be able to play with my american friends?

That's not what I said, there will be servers localized in those areas, however, we don't know *for sure* if NCsoft is going to block people. Anyways i'm willing to bet that, as in other NCsoft's games, you will be able to play with american friends if you're european, if you want to have a higher ping :)

Thanks, although, do you have any information as to character data? if I would change server, would I have to remake the char, or will the data from my own server be transferred?

I'm eager to see Aion released =]

How the servers will be handled is yet to be revealed, sorry but I can't help you more on those details. :(

Actually I sort of asked this question a while back and good old Ayase said that players would be bound to their server meaning you cannot log on different servers with the same character you will have to remake.

I guess it's to avoid too much interserver traffic. Thanks for the info guys ^-^

I really think the devs just wanted it to be like that to make the other race seem more unique to you.
