Hm zohl can you tell me how much effort would it take to make cross realm arenas work?

Hardware-its possible, but very difficult. The servers are hosted on 2 units, so they have to merge the databases+something that splits the server on 2 computers. 1 realm, using 2 computers, splitting user requests between them. If a player is on the first computer, and buys an item, the second computer must know that he bought that item. It needs hardware engineering, and a third computer to be programmed so it acts as master and genesis-PC+exodus-PC to act as slaves. I have no idea if freakz has 2 net providers or one-if it has one, and the cable connects to a modem and splits then it's ok bandwith-wise, but if it has 2 separate cables, there will be major lag/delay issues. Plus the work to build a synergy between units. It's very hard to build such a system. The realms are hosted on desktop computers, so, if to be merged, they have to be converted to one server(and i mean hardware server, like google's). I dont know if the desktops have the hardware architecture that allows to be merged together as a server.

Think of Human Centipede-engineer edition.

Ok, so this wall of text's hope of merging the 2 realms together gets shattered by one tiny detail: The majority of players will NEVER speak english, making the foreigner's experience totally shit

is it possible to just make free transfer from one realm to the other and oposite?
