I will keep pressing for an update.
Please, please do. We need a savior of common-sense somewhere, here.
some over-the-top posts demanding information makes the developers believe they shouldn't post information until it is ready to go
The current dev team has been failing in communicating with players since it has been put to Planetside, don't you dare blaming the players now.
Also, how could players "make the devs believe" something when they don't even read it.

Then maybe the Dev Team shouldnt of created a thread called *Werner Server Merge* if they didnt want to be flooded with requests for more information , posting on such a subject and then leaving it 2 moths without even a single reply is just bang out of order.
So we've now got a *forum Mod* giving us updates on the game , nice work , Rajinn telling me when i asked something that *he wasnt actualy a Dev*
all in all a total failure of cominication , doesnt take alot for a *real dev* to post an update
I haven't read 19 pages of this thread, so maybe nothing new here.
I'd suggest to finish it by around 20 May. This way you'd gain a lots of resubbers (former Werner veterans + others hoping a pop-boom), that would last at least till the middle of the summer.
If you belate with it, there may be to few in the fall who wants a comeback. Save our pops for the summer and win the rest of the year! Hurry up guys! It is financial crysis all around every cents count!
ETA is still months, not weeks. No, the devs aren't happy about it either.
I think we understood it would be a while until it happened, it was from the announcement to the merge of Markov and Emerald.
Or are you saying we are months from the announcement of the date ?
well my sub runs out in 2 days. balance pass got me back in cause i was hoping for balance. we did not even got close to that. atm i got better stuff to do.
i will be back when the server merge happens and there are enough players of my outfit still in planetside so i can have a good time.
until then everyone that stays on have fun. this is reaver027 signing off.
sorry but how in the hell does it take months to do what is basicly a data entry task , surely keeping werner open is costing SOE more money , employ a few spotty kids get the characters transferd and close werner - eta a week tops.
Or face losing any hope you actualy had of kick starting planetside back into life , already the werner vets that came back have decided enough is enough and have cancelled there sub.
And i still dont see why this news has come from (no offence nelson) basicly a forum mod and not a SOE official developer , too busy with matrix online still ??
I have to agree I'm not sure why the ETA is months?!
Given the poor decisions that have been made within the short period I have been back (i.e. the lasher!) I would think SOE would wish to save the last of its playey base and not drag things out.
Lets face it the cost of keeping Werner running probably far aways the cost of the actuall transfer of characters. Perhaps someone official could do with coming on here and giving us a break down of what exactly is involved. This would then be the first amount of transparency from SOE in all the years I have been here.
I came back with the hope of fighting with all the people I had spent years developing friendships with but at the same time was meet with bad changes meaning that now lashers bounce through walls and around corners and hackers are more present than ever before. I think SOE needs to redeem itself here and put proper project management into action.
Translation: not their choice
Well whom ever the higher power is thats decided on putting off the merge , you can tell them that they have probably just put the final nail into the planetside coffin , this was probably 1 idea that may of given the game the population boost that is needed and without it i'll give PS a few more months tops before it being solely played by the chinese as there has already been a drastic drop in Euro and US players during the respected prime times.

so maybe they could actually do some work meanwhile? Like, I don't know, balancing the Lasher?
Altho obviously twitching a few numbers takes months too...
Because there is no more development on PS anymore.
