Would like to know who put no improvement down and perhaps an explanation?

There is no improvement for me compared to before the router problems and even with the new connection spiking i was able to play on backup aswell as before. (Havent had any permanent problems with my connection.)

Only improvement for me is that everyone plays now on 2d, and i dont consider that having an effect on my connection to dedicated server.

Ofcourse if we talk about server stability i bet there is a small improvement, cant confirm yet because server has ran at irmings without any problems even longer times than dedicated has been in use.

You hated 3D...made several posts about it, claimed in ruined PvP ect ect. The dedicated server gets rid of 3D so I think you (and others that wanted rid of 3D) should probably change your vote otherwise the poll is going to give misleading informaton- This poll wasnt just about connectivity If I understood correctly.

This server has been a great improvement compared to the old one in all aspects. I haven't done any PvP in it yet though and I'm guessing it's still going to be a positive outcome (aside dieing, hehe) for everything else it's a huge improvement. I even outran that final dragon at the graveyard event. Couldn't dream of that before! Go 2D go!

Canadian here! ; -)


A big thanks goes to the staff for allowing us to test the new connection indeed and to those who throw donations to ensure we keep it.

I think this poll means more like how the server runs and how the connections works compared to irmings connection they are trying to find out how much it made server to be playable for players who had troubles with example connection.

3d could have been banned at irmings already it doesnt have a thing to do with the statics. Yes 2d only is a big balance and yes banishment remove is a big balance but its totaly different matter when we are talking about hardware related problems mostly.

If you vote only because 2d is banned i suppose this poll aint telling how is the dedicated server running compared to old one, as i bet it was supposed to do.

And even an idiot can tell that 2d only is the future of pangaea, when i made my posts about 3d ruining pvp etc. i didnt know that staff had understood the problem already and acknoweledged that 3d has to go, i was sick of waiting without an answer and wished an action to be taken as soon as possible to prevent shard from dying even if it would have cost us some players from american side. I bet some of you noticed before 2d only there was few days with 10 max online count.

EDIT: sorry for so many edits
