Age of Conan server merges more than half of server list

[Ninja-X]

Funcom's MMORPG previously announced that widespread server merges would be coming in an attempt to consolidate what few players are still left in the abandoned lands of the Hyborian Age. Those mergers are now underway, as over half of the game's servers are being cut.

The primary target for cuts appears to be North America, as the original 25 launch servers are being cut to six. Elsewhere in the world, 13 European servers will become four, 6 German servers will become three, and four French servers will become three.

With servers in every regional sub-set reduced to the bare minimum of one of each type, the merge list is the clearest indication yet from Funcom of the extent to which Age of Conan's player-base has dwindled since launch.

However, the mergers will certainly provide a better experience for remaining players, with busier and more dynamic surroundings, more combat and healthier economies on the remaining realms.

This is too bad. I'm one of the people who really wanted to play.

What AoC needs now is to:
Add more end game content.
Invite former players back for another look.
Get an expansion out this Summer 09 to keep players who have been playing since launch.

If you liked AoC but have not played in the last 90 days, I think you would be in for a real surprise if you came back for a spin.
