No, it's not. It's actually a great decision. Makes people think which realm they wanna play, makes realm pride a thing, as it has been back in the day.

Yeah seems like unnecessary long :?

However I'm not sure I understood it correctly.

English is not my first language. Maybe someone can explain it in a scenario.


Is it like this?

If i play Albion and want to play Midgard I flag my account for 7 days switch timer and then I can play upon to 8 hours left(6d16h) and then I can switch to Midgard.

Q: Is this true? Will there really be a 7 day timer to switch realm?!
A: Yes, the 7 day timer is meant as an incentive to stay in 1 realm. More so, the last 8 hours you will be unable to login to prevent information to be passed from one realm to another. Until the last 8 final hours of the countdown, you are allowed to play in your realm, and at any point can you cancel the process, however this puts the realm switching on a cool down. We know these timers sound long and harsh if you want to play with friends in different realms. But our goal is to create a server where players don't switch realm constantly and care about the realm they are in. People might try to get past these timers in various ways, but be assured, that we will do everything in our power to find these people and ban their accounts after the relaunch. For the beta this realm switch timer will be reduced to 1 hour to help testing.
People coming together as a community can make great things happen.

This mean i i want swith to other realm, and after 5 days i cancel the switch, ill have to wait other 7 days to switch, and not only 2? Right?

Other question. If we switch the realm, when will we decide new realm, after 7 days or before?

You have to decide what realm you are switching for *before* starting the transfer.
Be nice. :)

If you really want to change the realm and not just hop over and then hop back, you can always delete all your toons in the realm you play and then create new ones in a new realm. This has no downtime if i understood right.

Is it possible for the staff to not have this activated for the first week? I don't se this affecting RvR at all. Sometimes players will change their mind on a realm, it would suck to be stuck within the first realm you picked if you made a mistake or found out your friends were actually going to a different realm.

You can always just delete your character and go play another realm without any timer at all.
