The developers of the survival MMORPG Citadel: Forged with Fire are walking a fine line. Because a server wipe is necessary for a major update, which does not please all players. The developers are aware of this.
Major update requires server wipe
A major update is coming. The developers of the MMORPG are currently preparing a comprehensive update. This brings the following:
- a redistribution of player progress and many other improvements
- a new game balance
- optimizations to the world layout
- a revision of the costs of various crafting recipes is planned, which will significantly change the balance and pace of the game
A server wipe is necessary. Since the update brings such significant changes, a server wipe is required. The developers aim to ensure a fair game. The update is expected to be released around early to mid-July 2018 and the server wipe is planned shortly before that. A specific date will be announced later.
Citadel spares these 10 servers – no wipe on legacy servers
Not all servers will be deleted. The developers are well aware that a server wipe is not well-received by all players. To avoid alienating these players, 10 servers will be retained where progress will not be deleted. These will be considered as legacy servers:
- TheBrink(OfficialEurope)
- CitadelUSEast33
- CitadelEurope11
- Tokoree(OfficialUSEast)
- Elundriel(OfficialUSEast)
- Luminous(OfficialUSWest)
- ShadowCape(OfficialEurope)
- Akatore(OfficialEurope)
- CitadelEurope4
- CitadelEurope5
Many players are already showing little enthusiasm for a wipe, while others express understanding. The “Harry Potter MMO” Citadel: Forged with Fire needs to evolve. Players are demanding new features and optimizations. And these inevitably come with a wipe.
