Character creation question...

Cyanide · 2003-04-16, 07:44 PM

I know you get four characters to create. My question is do all 4 have to be for the same faction? Like if i wanted to have one character that's a vanu max, and one that's a TR galaxy pilot etc. could i do that? And if so, is there a time limit that i have to wait between changing factions?

All characters have to belong to the same empire

wuZ · 2003-04-16, 07:49 PM

Yes, they all have to be of the same Faction!
You can only play in another Faction if you use another server.

greets wuZ

@Cyanide: If you still have the second account you can give away, I would be very pleased if you give it to me

Umm...i'm not even in beta dude.

wuZ · 2003-04-16, 07:58 PM

I thought, because of your signature :]

Cyanide · 2003-04-16, 08:01 PM

haha, nah, you must have missed that thread.

Anyway, can you have characters on more than one server at the same time?

wuZ · 2003-04-16, 08:03 PM

yes i think you can have 3 chars per server...

Cyanide · 2003-04-16, 08:10 PM

How do you know this if you're not in beta?

wuZ · 2003-04-16, 08:11 PM

I am just well informed about the game

You can have up to 4 chars on one server, each of which must be in/on/ or apart of the same empire. The only way to switch empires on that same server is to delete all of your chars and start all over. There's not a time limit as of this moment to switch sides, you just have to start all over when you switch. Sorry to say but, you can not run two characters at the same time unless you have two sepreat paying accounts. It goes by your account and long in name and password to play.

That should just about cover it. If you have any more questions I'll try to help since the NDA is not in effect any more.

Do you mean i can't have my characters on different server or that i can not play 2 characters at the same time? Because i dont' want to play 2 characters at once.

You get 4 characters PER server

Characters on the SAME server have to be the SAME empire.

Eg: East Coast

mikkyT - this char is NC so all other subsequent chars on this server hav to be NC unless I delete them all and create a different empire.
mikkyT1
mikkyT2
mikkyT3

West Coast
mikkyT - this char is TR so all other subsequent chars on this server have to the TR unless I delete them all and then I can choose a new empire.
mikkyT2002
mikkyT2003
mikkyT1z1337

Hmm, forgot about the multiple server effect. I guess it will be easy to try out other empires - on different servers. Cool.

on each server you can have 4 characters of the same faction.
you cannot play 2 characters at the same time. every server is not connected to the the other servers, there all different. but you can be registered on more than one server. so, you can play all 3 factions but not at the same time.
