What a good server in archage. New development server: choosing a name. Which Russian Archeage server is the best?
The online game ArcheAge has received another update - to version 4.5. Players received another portion of content - starting with new powerful opponents and ending with the opportunity to raise their own dragon. But the most important thing is the launch of a completely unique server “Haze”, writes Games.mail.ru.
New servers have appeared in ArcheAge before, but “Haze” is different in that on it players will see ArcheAge in a form close to the one in which it was released in February 2014. This is a great way to try out the game from scratch, and in many ways the new journey will be even better than the first. Today we will tell you why ArcheAge is good in principle and why the launch of Khaze is an excellent reason to return to the game.
# The largest
Among the popular fantasy online games, ArcheAge has no equal in scale - in general, only EVE Online, as well as some hardcore niche projects, can compare with it in the genre. It would take a long text to list the activities available to players. ArcheAge is just starting out as a regular online game - there are two opposing sides, each on its own continent, we create a hero where we like it, and begin to level up by completing quests and following the storyline.
After some time, crafting is connected. In ArcheAge, you simply need to get your own vegetable garden - crafts require a lot of resources, so the ability to independently obtain at least some of them is important. You shouldn’t delay getting your own home either - it’s not only an expensive and beautiful toy, but also a place where the machines are located. For your home and garden, it is better to try to occupy areas closer to the main transport routes. ArcheAge has a very developed trade, goods are transported both by land and by ship, and the greater the distance, the better the profit.
The game throws up new activities at almost every level. Players from both sides began to level up in the same location - and PvP without rules was added. Here are the first dungeons, sea voyages with island exploration and treasure hunting. Leveled-up characters can become pirates, explore small islands, or go to conquer the northern continent, where the best guilds on the server fight for the right to own territories. This is already classic mass PvP in the style of the best Korean games - with sieges of castles, development of controlled territories, where you can produce some of the best things on the server.
Don't like large-scale PvP? The assortment includes arenas scattered around the world for small teams, where battles are fought according to different rules - there is even an area for naval battles. Or PvE: bosses on different continents and at sea, dungeons that require a well-played and well-equipped group, as well as an understanding of tactics, to complete. There really is a place for everyone in ArcheAge - even a single artisan who is well versed in his profession will be able to provide himself with a good home, a small ship and decent equipment.
# Easy to learn
Despite all the variety, ArcheAge cannot be called a hardcore game. Over four years, the developers have polished the balance and mechanics so that even casual players do not have problems. Leveling up at early levels has become noticeably faster, many unnecessary actions have been removed from crafting, plus the class system has been better configured - a character in ArcheAge is created by “combining” three branches of skills that the player chooses himself, and at first this approach led to balance problems. In addition, over the past years, a huge number of guides have been written on all aspects of the game - on our website, for example, a selection of guides has just been published that are useful for those who plan to start in version 4.5.
# Very social
Online games, which were once intended to be virtual worlds where players could socialize and make friends, have recently become very anti-social. In a minute, the automatic search system will select a group for you to complete the next task, with the players in which you may not even exchange a few words. Well, if you don’t want to play even this way, then in many projects you are allowed to lower the difficulty by going through them almost entirely alone.
ArcheAge also has enough activities for singles, and there is an automatic search system, but there is much more to do for those who like to communicate. Small groups can be turned into families, gaining access to additional tasks, but in order to successfully fight for influence on the northern continent, you will need a large and united guild. Well, where there is a guild, there is socialization - starting with gatherings on the forum and in Discord and ending with meetings in reality (in the largest ones, by the way, the project team also takes part).
#Fresh start
The Khaze server will be a completely new experience not only for beginners, but also for experienced players. Indeed, in terms of content, the server will be closer to the game of 2014 - only 50 levels of pumping, a minimum of PvP on the northern continent, a smaller set of high-level activities. But at the same time, the mechanics are taken from the current version of ArcheAge - which means that leveling up and crafting will be easier and more fun, and there will be much fewer problems with balance. In addition, new content on Khaz will appear much faster. Now the developers plan to release updates every month, but the schedule can be adjusted depending on how quickly players upgrade and the server economy develops.
If you love truly massive online games for hundreds of hours of time, then ArcheAge still has no competitors. It is perfectly balanced, packed to the brim with content and still looks very cool. Plus, right now you have a choice - start right away in the current version of the game or go to Khaze to see how the project has developed over four years.

There are several criteria by which you can select a server in Archeage
In many MMO One of the main questions that new players face is the question of which server to choose. And here there are a lot of criteria by which you have to choose. Moreover, the most difficult thing is that these criteria are mutually exclusive. But let's understand everything in order.
At the moment, the game has 12 servers (at least the official ones, which are available to Russian-speaking players). And at all there is some advantage of players who chose Western mainland. The biggest difference now is Lucia– here 58% of players are “Western”. The smallest spread on Glenn– here on the Western Mainland only 52% of users play. But this does not have much impact on the gameplay. Much more important is how full the server is (by the number of players), as well as the date of its appearance.
Server selection criteria
A server with a huge number of players has its advantages: quick selection of parties and guilds; and cons: high ping...
To begin with, we will look at the features of those servers on which there are many players.
On the plus side, when playing on a densely populated server, it’s always easier for you to find a group in a dungeon, in PvP, or somewhere else.
It's also easier to find a guild that's right for you.
But there is one disadvantage that is always associated with a large online presence - these are relatively frequent crashes, high ping, and other problems that high load on the server creates.
One of these problems (perhaps the most unpleasant) is that the more players there are, the more various “inadequacies” (as they are often called) - those who create problems for others simply for the sake of “fun”.
A server with a small number of gamers in Archeage also has its advantages: stable connection without crashes, few players and enemies, more resources and rare mobs, lower competition; and disadvantages: it takes a long time to find a party, few guilds
Low-population servers have other advantages and other disadvantages.
The problem is that it is more difficult for you to find a group here, and there are fewer guilds here, which is also not very pleasant.
But the connection is much more stable (since the server is not overloaded), the chances of stumbling upon a bored ganker (a lover of free PvP) from the opposite faction are also less, in addition, it is easier to mine resources, hunt for rare mobs and other similar things, since it is much lower competition.
Now let’s talk about how the choice of server is influenced by the date of its opening.
In general, everything is simple here. On older servers there are many more experienced players, which can create a lot of problems for newbies, even just out of boredom. On the other hand, on new servers there are more inexperienced players, and the conditions are more equal. But here another problem arises. A new server (almost always) has a lot of players. So what should you choose in the end?
conclusions
A newer server with not the highest online availability is best for a beginner - the competition here is not the highest, and there are fewer strong players with whom it would be more difficult to compete. In principle, for those who want to calmly get used to the game, we can recommend Ashyara, Gartarein or Kiproza. So, choose the one you like best - and go ahead!
At this stage of development of the game in the vastness of our country it works Russian server ArcheAge online, where players can take part in beta testing. You can sign up for this testing on the Russian website of the game ArcheAge http://aa.mail.ru/.During the beta testing process, real players will be able to test the gameplay, understand the features of the game and help correct inaccuracies, if any, during the adaptation of the game to the territory of our homeland.
