Question

Its just a question

How many of you own a US copy of the game and play on the US side? And of those who don't own a US copy of the game, would you play on the US side rather than the EU side if you could transfer your main Hero and main Villain?

No I don't, and no, I wouldn't.

No I don't. and it would have to transfer my whole account, and even then, I would only consider it when I do emigrate to Canada, which wont be for another 10 years, so whether CoX is still around then, or this is an issue will have to be seen at the time.

Yes I do, but that's only because I started playing when there was only the US game.

I would only move back to the US servers voluntarily if my job changed back to where I was playing US hours again (ie I used to log on around 1am our time) and I could play with my old SG again.


However, it turned out that Smith was not a time-travelling Terminator

I'd be tempted because of the higher population levels.

Same except I did bring my US characters across to EU. I have no plans to go back permanently although I do check it out during reactivation weekends.

Don't, never have, never will. I like it here.

tried a US trial account.

Soon came back here.


I really should do something about this signature.

I have an inactive US account, I have all my characters and time playing on the EU side.
I got the US account for 1 month and transferred a toon over to get the Passport badge. I don't even collect badges much, but it was a now or never event, so I chose now .

EU, Union mostly.

No. Especially if all that could be moved were a main hero and a main villain. Even if I could move a coupla dozen characters I'd still say no. I tried a US trial and I saw no evidence of the high numbers people have claimed they get even at EU peak times, and there was certainly no evidence that the content of Broadcast was any better.

I like being a part of the local set-up too much. I like our community. I like our GMs. I even like our Forums Moderators...

Also, as difficult as it is to persuade the Powers That Be to let me ride the locomotive to Birmingham, I do stand a chance of making it to Memorabilia and letting everyone buy me large glasses of frothing ale. Mrs Dan would certainly have cast a much smokier glare had I suggested Comic Con in San Diego.

im just waiting for the EU side teams to sort things out. ie promo, in game props. etc

rewards come to those who wait.
*though waiting might lead to death, which could be a nice reward as urll no longer be waiting. we shall c*

I too have an inactive US account, with a couple of toons on it.

I've been playing EU since EU beta, so won't be moving back anytime soon, however, the one thing that might persuade me is population / server merge with name loss. (not just server merge, it would have to include name loss, as i like being an individual).

That said, if i moved my toons back to the US server, chances are the names may be taken anyway.

I have a US account, if you could transfer all characters and the VG, i'd be gone like a shot.

So would the main 10 or so people in our VG.

If i could transfer to the US account I think I would do so. In the hope of course that there would actually be more people online and getting a team would not be such a pain. Or being in a SG that is not died out.

I expect though to be disapointed.


 

Posted

No, no and... No.


 

Posted

If a number of my coalition went over, then so would I.

We have talked about it mainly for the teams and just seeing other people.

I own a US account with 21 months to it. It was only option then, and when EU launched i saw no reason to migrate. Wasn't until CoV came i used the free transfer deal and moved over to EU. Not sure exaktly why i did it, but not regretting it as i've met some wonderful people here

I have contemplated reactivating the US account, since it's more crowded and cheaper to play, but don't wanna leave my friends here.


 

Posted

I don't have a US account. If I could transfer my alts I'd certainly consider it, though a bigger problem to me would be losing the SG bases. Tbh if I had to chose I'd prefer to take the bases with me that the alts.


 

Posted

I have a US trail account that has never been upgraded to a full one.

Having seen the figures for the US servers compared to the EU ones I have no intention of changing from the EU side.


 

Posted

i dont own a US account and i wont ever transfer over. I feel in a way . . . .. patriotic about our servers. Even though it is just a game, i know too many people on this side of the pond who i consider actual friends to justify jumping ship.
Everybody knows the US side has more populated servers ( a select few anyway) but i would still prefer to play with a few genuine nice players, than a lot of random [censored] players.
