Besides what the flea mentions, it won't save anything in resources. See previous mentions of consolidation where the devs address this. Since the servers are virtual, the number isn't much of an issue. Reunion is extra since it is another HW site. Anyway, if you poke around with the search terms you'll probably get a better detail. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreah Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 It's also easy to transfer characters between servers; almost easy enough to do it depending on your mood. Want to visit Manhattan? Go to Excel. Need a respite in Kansas? Swap over to Indom. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judasace Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 They won't show the stats because then everyone would know that all of the sets they've created (Seismic blast, Symphony control, etc.) are rarely played above level 20 or so.

PeregrineFalcon Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Yeah, if it doesn't take the developers too much time, I'd like to see new stats too. Maybe even just a data dump and let one of us clean it up and put it into nice tables so that a developer doesn't have to waste their time doing that part of it. 1 "It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion.

Krimson Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 The game belongs to the Homecoming Team, not the player base. They don't have to tell us anything. Heck, they could privatize the game and make it their personal space devoid of pesky players if they wanted to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shut down Homecoming then launch the private server with their friends and tell no one. I doubt there is a provision in the agreement preventing the demise of Homecoming if the HC team decides to pack it in.

It is irksome that you don't know this, or, are choosing to ignore it. "NCSOFT still owns the City of Heroes intellectual property and its derivatives." Resources are leased or rented. The fees for those resources are paid for by... a community. ..and to head off any further nonsense: Your accounts and characters are safe Development of new content will continue Homecoming will continue to be completely free We will continue to be funded entirely through donations 1 1 "Homecoming is not perfect but it is still better than the alternative.. at least so far" - Unknown (Wise words Unknown!)

What they gave MOP was a pretty stripped down version. I'm guessing there's some whacky DB hijinks to pull the data and sanitize it. This is stuff that probably could be scripted and then just looked over to be double checked, but seems there's a road block somewhere. (Or just in the list of priorities it keeps being pushed down) I'd love to see the data, but I also understand they've got different ideas on what to work on. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to do a refresh of this post sometime in the near future, but it has not been a priority 🙂 Edit: For clarity - what we pulled for MOP was basically just a few quick SQL queries to run, took just a few minutes to put together. It takes hours to pull and organize all of the data for a post like this; just waiting for the queries to run actually takes significantly more time than it took to pull and organize the information that MOP requested. Unfortunately, it hasn't been a priority and it isn't going to be for some time. 2 4 1 Cipher City Council If you need help, please submit a support request here or use /petition in-game.
