Information about My.com we need from you Steven
Hello Steven and Intrepid Studios.
To start off. We, the EU community are outraged about the my.com publisher announcement for the EU servers. Not only because of My.com's reputation but because we were lied to by you and intrepid in the Kickstarter. We were told you would self-publish, and if there is one thing the EU community has been burned by for years is horrible publishers destroying good games. There is no trust from the EU community in any publisher at all. The fact that you guys came out saying you would self-publish was music to our ears, now that you guys turned your backs to the EU community but not the other regions is a big hit below the belt.
Still, I do trust you Steven. I do trust you when you say that you wouldn't do anything to destroy the game, I trust you when you said that My.com has promised to pout this game as their top priority and that they have fixed the past issues they had. You know what I also trust? The fact that My.com lies. The fact that My.com have said these very exact same things in past games, and still screwed us, the players over massively. My.com has lost any right for us to trust them blindly. So, what I am going to ask from both you, Intrepid and My.com is to earn our trust back. Show us why we should give My.com a second chance because empty words on your side won't work this time.
We recently got an update regarding the business model from My.com side. For now, those were great news, and I thank you Steven for taking that matter seriously as flying to them to talk with them directly. You have also told us that things regarding server quality and security is something My.com won't be behind just themselves, but they have to live up to certain requirements that are put into the contract. For now, I will be contempt with that response and wait to see how things turn out.
These are questions and information we still need information and official responses to.
How will the community and communication be for the EU players? In past games that did something similar like you guys, splitting off a region from another, one region would end up being ignored by the developers as well for that region to be disconnected from the other regions. How do you intend to solve this?
When My.com takes over, will the EU community and their accounts be migrated over to their systems, their services and forums, or will we still be connected with you guys and have a direct link with Intrepid like the other regions?
How will things like playing in different regions, or transferring an account work, will we be able to play on multiple regions at once, or will our account only work on one region at the time?
If My.com ends up providing a bad service, regardless of what your intentions were, Will EU players be allowed to transfer over to NA, or will we be forced to abandon our characters, our backer accounts and create new accounts?
You can't blindly ask us to trust you guys on this matter, you lost that privilege when you went back on your promise in the Kickstarter and went to bed with one of the worst publishers in the EU.

oh well guess WoW is still there if AOC launches with my.com as publisher
Ive really been interested to see how much this decision has split the community though.
EDIT: How about my.com hosting EU dedicated servers during alpha 1? Would give a somewhat nice opportunity to test the server quality and see if they can actually deliver this time around...
