Hey folks,

We are going to need to do a full restart on all East Coast US servers in order to address an issue. We are going to suspend new logins on the server starting at 9:55 AM Eastern (5 minutes from now). We will then bring the servers down completely at 10:15 AM Eastern (20 minutes from now).

We expect all servers to be back online roughly 30-45 minutes after that. I will pass on more updates as they become available. Again, this only affect US East servers.

Thanks.

Since my question seemed to get buried. Do crates pre-Nov. 28th that we don't disintegrate give CXP or will they also convert to the new UC system after that update goes live?
It'll be for new the crates.

It stacks on the existing perk. So, in the situation where you have four or more characters in your legacy at Command Rank 300, you will receive a 100% bonus to the base CXP value. If you decide to rank up additional characters you gain CXP a bit faster.

Today, we do not have plans to increase the percentage above 100%.

Typo ><. Let me get that fixed.

Server has no effect on name collisions. Every character is moving to a brand-new server, there is no priority based on where you came from.

You do need to purchase the initial 25% perk, but the additional 75% will be free. And, YES, this Perk is retroactive, so you will immediately benefit once we deliver United Forces Foundation."

Does this mean if I get three characters + purchase the perk, I get +100% CXP? Or do I have to have 4 to get the +100% CXP?

Thanks!
Basically, there is a new perk that you can purchase. That perk increases the CXP you earn in your Legacy by 25-100%. What the % is, is determined by how many CR 300 characters you have. My understanding is that you need 4 characters at 300 for the 100%, but I will verify.

Totally hear you on this, and it is a fair concern. We are looking at two numbers to potentially increase. First, maximum chars allowed per server (currently 52) and the amount of "default" char slots a sub has (currently 12). Hoping to have some locked down details to share in the next couple of weeks, with the ultimate goal of largely alleviating the issue you presented above.

And that new limit will be 50, not 52.

Am I also correct in assuming that once this is in place, I will not be able to transfer characters back and forth between servers if I have more than 50 characters on a new United Forces server?
Partially correct. Yes you will go up to 156 characters on that server, the limit is staying at 52 (the 50 is a typo I am working on fixing now). In fact, that 52 number is likely to go up with the update, just locking down details on it.

I am not sure how the server character caps will affect transfers, let me look into that.

Nope! Does it say 50 somewhere? That would be in error if that is the case. In fact we are looking at raising those caps post-update, just nothing concrete to announce just yet on that front.

Also as I have toons on different servers, do I lose all their legacies and have to merge them all into one?

Are you going to change the way companions that are potentially dead (to some) behave to those that did not kill them. I.E not make them irrelevant to those that choose to not kill them?
After the update you will be able to access and login into all of your characters, even if the update puts you above your maximum character limit on that server. You won't be able to create a new one until you go under the cap, but we won't stop you from accessing anything you can play prior to it.
