    Change server option please GM and Ohm blessing event upg sale maybe?

    So I was thinking here while doing some stuff online and I know some other games have the option where you can go back to the server you choose for different characters and stuff. On this one you have to exit completely out of rohan and do it all over again some times when you run more than 1 client it crashes so would that be a option for future help with our players. And its been a very very long time since we havnt had upg sale, that would be great cause I see alot of people now selling their old stuff since this balance patch came out. Well just wanted to post this for future reference hope to hear back from some of the departments there

    To change characters on the same server you do not have to exit the game completely. There is a change character icon that lets you choose another.
    You do have to exit completely to select a different server. The design of the current client is such that it is not possible to split apart the login, server selection and game playing parts.
    If it were designed in a modular fashion, it would be possible, but sadly Rohan's designers did not know how to make their programs modular when they designed this client. To change it would require a full redesign and rewrite of the client. I cannot see PlayWith investing that much money in this game to do this redesign.

    Upgrades: I do not expect to see another Upgrade sale happening. The current staff do not like upgrades and do not want to continue their use beyond those that already exist. Myself and a few others are submitting proposals to PlayWith to create Weapons that would help those that cannot afford upgrades, but would still like to play in the Jainus server. We will need to see how far our contacts in the support team can drive this with their bosses.

    it isnt that big deal to add 1 button "change server"

    and about upgrades, I agree that they should sell them all the time and make even cheaper for newcomers - This would be finally BALANCE PATCH - make all things accessible to everybody !!!

    Adding a button that says "change server"? No, not too tough. It is what happens after you click that button that is so tough.

    every single average programmer would be able to do that

    aah dont make that big
    It would be at character selection screen, you wouldnt have to rebuild whole server, that button could do only 2 things, 1st to logoff you from current server and 2nd direct you to server selection screen.
    I see it as very simple couple lines only implementation

    If you have some background at programming, you'll find it soo difficult to do that.
    It's not just buttons and stuff we're talking lol

    Really? Can you by chance do it even if you had their source code?
    How is your session management knowledge when sharing session data between different physical servers?

    I really would like to see what you think the rohanclient.exe architecture is.

    (just as an FYI I have been a senior software developer specializing in client server development architecture for over 30 years)

    With my little knowledge of programming I know it's hard making those changes with current architecture
