wrong district[edit]

i live in the uk and speak no german, however, whenever i change the outpost i'm in, i always get put in the wrong district, does anybody know why? Hime-chan 18:23, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Either you have german set as in game language, or you once switched to german districts (accidently or willingly) The game now remembers what district you last visited, and keeps you in the same language districts if possible. Just move back to english districts (if there's where you want to be) and it should automatically go there by default. You might have to do this with each char, though, I'm not sure how it works. - anja talk 18:28, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
yeah, i keep going back to the english district, i reckon it's a bug of some sort, 'cause my language settings certainly arent on german, i reckon i'd notice... but it is getting annoying Hime-chan 20:00, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
Sounds like a weird bug or something, I recommend contacting support about it. - anja talk 20:01, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

max number of districts[edit]

hmmm..... is the max number 175? Saw it reach that and when we tried to get into the last 5 rooms we couldnt as they were full, but no room 176 appeared. -- Salome User salome sig.png 04:24, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

Probably because the ones inbetween were empty. --Burning Freebies 18:08, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

American District with Lag[edit]

Lately i have seen people people losing connection and/or stop moving, this happened to me too, it also looks like that makes my router to restart, which is very weird. It's frustrating to have lag or even worst lose connection, specially when we are in a big party with players only, were they are counting on us. The problem doesn't seems to happen in the Euro district, however like most of people i go to American district because there's always much more players, which is always better for parties to do mission or farm. Anyway i would like to see a comment from someone that has this problem too, just to make sure that this is not a problem from me. Thank you.

Obs: I'm from Europe, don't know if that has something to do, anyway i've asked people in-game that lost connection and said they are from America. Thanks again in advance. ~iShadow The preceding unsigned comment was added by Inflame (talk • contribs) at 07:09, 18 October 2008 (UTC).

If your in europe you will have higher ping while in the american, but it shouldnt cause you to disconnect, it is probably your own connection, if my modem has been turned on for over about 2 hours, it will all the sudden lose connection with my router, causing me to lose internet -- perhaps your having similar problems C4K3 User C4K3 Signature.jpg Talk 11:37, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

Max number of people per district[edit]

I never found more than 50 people in one district. What is the number of people that triggers the creation of another one, and the max number of people that can be at the same time in one district? MithUser MithranArkanere Star.pngTalk 18:05, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

100 people, but i think they raised it without telling us. --Burning Freebies 18:07, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
100 people is the max in a district, i think they create a new one before they fill the dist though. --Silven 01:58, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

Starting missions/pvp matches from different districts.[edit]

When you start a pvp match (f.e. RA, AB, CM) or some missions (Vizunah square & Unwaking waters) you get put in the area with random allies that may come from different districts of the same continent (f.e. in Europe you can find people from Spannish dis1, German dis2 and Polish dis1), but is there a chance to find allies from other continents? For example: can I be put in AB match with allies from American district when starting from Europe English dis? 212.122.218.135 12:20, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

The game probably checks districts in order. If there's enough teams entering battle in European districts, it's likely that you will have three teams all from European realm. But in case there is not, I believe that the game checks other home districts for "replacements." Mediggo 12:31, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
In case anyone wonders, I think the game checks districts in the following order:
  • Own district (example: Europe English 1)
  • Districts like Europe English 2 or higher, if these exist.
  • Other districts located in Europe, like French 1, German 1 etc.
  • International districts
  • Districts from other continents (America 1, Korea 1)
Not really sure if the order is exactly like this, but international districts tend to go before 'foreign' districts.SuperRobertWa (talk) 13:38, 29 June 2014 (UTC)

Changing districts to avoid lag[edit]

Some UWSC and other groups insist on leaving from the Polish or some other district because "it has less lag". Do you really connect to a server in Poland (or somewhere near Poland) when you join a Polish district or are the names just to make it easier to find people of your native language? If you do then isn't it silly to expect a group of people from around the world to all have less lag connecting to a server in a country that for most of the members of the party is farther from their computer than the US server? And if you don't, then why bother? 76.84.34.210 23:33, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

  1. No.
  2. Because people are stupid and will believe anything other people tell them. ~Shard User Shard Sig Icon.png 23:37, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
Where the servers are actually located? Are they all in US? Because i think i have a bit less lag on european servers and i live in Europe. - J.P.ContributionsTalk 23:58, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
Some are in the US and some are in Germany, AFAIK. ~Shard User Shard Sig Icon.png 00:01, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Teleporting rod??[edit]

I heard something about a "teleporting rod" that allows event organizers to enter full districts. What is this thing called and is it on the wiki?81.240.79.199 17:07, 5 November 2010 (UTC)

"This district is closed, please select another"[edit]

The district (dis 2) is selectable in the drop down menu, but I get this message. This has been going on in LA EU since yesterday. What does this mean? 85.19.140.9 21:38, 7 February 2012 (UTC)
