The merge is coming!

  • Dear community,

    MERGES ARE COMING!

    We have been working on them for a while now and we can finally say that we are almost ready for them.
    Keep an eye on the forums, we are going to do the merges in October!
    The exact dates will be published later on, but for now, after some weeks matching servers, we can also tell you which servers are going to be merged.

    Also, keep in mind that for this merge, ALL accounts are going to be merged (no matter if Vmode or inactive). The accounts that did not select a server during the selection phase will be forced-merged into a random target (depending on the server capacity).


    Here is the plan for this community's merge:

    Group Exodus Universe Name Target Universe Name Changed
    1 118 Rigel 1 1 fleet 1x, eco 5x
    120 Taurus
    130 Deimos
    132 Fidis
    137 Kallisto
    2 123 Wasat 122 Vega fleet 2x, eco 7x
    128 Betelgeuse
    134 Hyperion
    139 Unity
    140 Nusakan
    142 Polaris
    143 Quaoar
    149 Wezn
    3 136 Japetus 147 Uriel fleet 3x, eco 6x, normal bash-, sharing- and pushingrule
    145 Spica
    131 Eridanus
    4 133 Ganimed 129 Cygnus fleet 4x, eco 7x
    138 Libra 141 Oberon
    146 Tarazed
    135 Izar
    144 Rhea
    5 151 Yildun 150 Xanthus 6x fleet and eco



    We hope these are good news for you!
    Happy Merging!

    Note: we are aware that for some servers there is a demand for server setting polls to change settings from old servers.
    There will not be new polls until the merge is finished.
    Please, keep in mind that for a while after the merge, the polling systems won't start as we need to handle and close first any merge related topic.

  • Dear Players,


    the Target selection for all Exodus universes is starting on Tuesday, 16th of October.
    The other dates aren't determined yet and will be announced when they are fixed.


    Regards,
    Your OGame.org Team

  • And here are the other dates:
    Phase 1: Target selection starts on Tuesday 16th and runs until Monday 22nd. No acc merges during the first week, just target selection.


    Phase 2: Merge running from Tuesday 23rd until Monday 29th of October.


    Keep in mind that we don't have a list of alternate/secondary targets yet. So you don't need to delete accounts yet if you 100% want to get into the current target unis. You also can still select a targetuni in Phase 2, so you have plenty of time to delete your account in a targetuni if really needed.
    If you select a target within Phase 1 and don't unselect it, you will get merged into the new uni on the 22nd.


    Edit: We know that the dates don't match the previous, we will clarify it on Monday

    Dates are now corrected

  • The settings of the following universes will get changed tomorrow, 17th of October, at 11:30 CEST:


    Universe 1: Ecospeed increased to 5x
    Vega: Ecospeedincrease to 7x
    Xanthus: Eco- and Fleetspeedincrease to 6x


    It might take up to 30 minutes for the changes to become effective.

  • Hello,
    as we are working on the accounts migration this morning we face a small issue that prevents people from being able to log in into the target server with the migrated account through the Lobby.
    We are aware of the issue and are currently working on a fix that will happen within the next couple of hours.

  • The following universes should have had their bonus fields increased from their mostly +25 before:
    Vega +30 fields
    Uriel +30 fields
    Cygnus +31 fields
    Oberon +31 fields
    Xanthus +30 fields


    Please give us feedback if the sizes of your planets match the extra fields/if the planet have the same size as before you moved into the targetuni or if they are now bigger or smaller: Feedback: Extra fields for targetunis

  • Dear community,
    due to the VMode not working properly, there are many accounts in many communities that have lost their fleet, defenses and resources.
    We are going to restore 100% of the losses through the Wreckfield repair.


    You will be able to repair 100% of the losses through this game feature and send it back to your planet.
    They should be available already for you to recover them.
    For the resources loss in these battles, please contact us through the support system. We will add the resources to your accounts.


    If you have been attacked or probed on Tuesday between 11:00 and 15:00 CEST but haven't lost anything, you are going to have an empty Wreckfield. This applies to all servers. If you lost something in this timeframe, the statement from above applies.


    Regards,
    Your OGame Team.

  • Dear Players,


    on Wednesday we will provide 2 free relocations to all players that were in the target servers.


    Also, as an apology, we are gifting 5 days of commander and officers to all active accounts in the target servers.

  • Dear community,


    The exodus servers will be completely removed from the Lobby on Monday, 10th of December.
    If you had any issue or need to report anything related to a merge case, please make sure you send a ticket to our support before Thursday, 6th of December.
    Unfortunately, we will not be able to make sure we can handle any support case sent to our system later than that and for sure, we will not be able to handle ANY merge case from the 10th of December on.


    Settings of the exodus universes prior to the merge:


    Thank you for your understanding,
    Your OGame Team.

  • Dear players,



    We will not be able to run any change of settings polls until the exodus servers are closed, which will happen on Monday, December 10th.


    We apologise for the delay, but we are still dealing with merge issues, and having everyone merged successfully is our top priority. We hope you understand.

  • The script to remove the vacationmode from the inactives was tested today on two servers of the spanish community. The testrun wasn't successfull and the script needs to get fixed again. We haven't been given a timeframe when it should work.

  • Dear Players,


    on Monday, the 10th of December, at around 13:00 CET the script to remove inactives from vacation mode will be run on all targetservers worldwide. The script won't remove the vacation mode from all inactives, as the latest test here in U1 and Quantum has shown. Players that still have fleet will stay in vacation mode.

  • Hello,


    As you know the exodus servers are gone from the lobby login, but the servers are still up.
    The exodus servers are being shut down today, which means from today the merge is completely finished.
