I definitely understand and I won't hold my breath until it's announced.we officially had no plans for separation regarding main server & upcoming steam iteration, meaning we'd hoped both can coexist together. Until discussions close on the subject, that remains the plan -- but as said, that does not mean it is guaranteed to happen as it's not our call alone to make.
Regardless, when the official word is known, we'll no doubt be putting forward a full statement on the subject.
Regards,
Mhul
For example: Lets say you buy a X game from store... you play it for 5 months and a new sequel X2 is published. You go buy that too and play the X and X2 the next 5 months... then sequal X3 is published and you buy that too and enjoy another 5 months. Then a new "guy" comes and says, "Oh - that game looks interesting", and buys X and X2 which are now on hefty sale and the X3 with reduced price.... Say you spend 300 €/$ to those 3 games when they were brand new (100 €/$ each)... the random guy gets all 3 games with 140 €/$ 15 months after the game X was published.

for new players, this game is indefinitely easier already
(think of automove, map, marks of fate, portalquest gone, more teleporters in startingarea, gold from BGs, they saved gold from not participating in all past gearsets, mounts from mentor, looter manuals, veterans that help rookies with hard monsters & knowledge, .... )

It's easier regarding things that don't matter in the long run (you listed those yourself) and significantly harder in those that do (currency exchange, time for money value).
This is a very easy debate to settle, look at it from My.com's point of view in order to gain the most revenue, would you A;
A - Create a steam server that has all the old accounts merged on to it, any new player has to now pay hugely to compete, this will generate a large amount of negative publicity and turn a lot of potential customers away.
Orrrr
B - Create a fresh server, everyone starts at a fresh level, where lots of people join at the same point and pay to beat each other but no one starts on 13's..
I do hope they create a fresh server if I'm honest I'd be very interested in starting over on a level playing field if I'm perfectly honest.
Really do hope that what mhuldoon said is true and that we wont get a new server. Splitting population between two servers in the international version would be very, very bad.

Not everyone has 12174.18 Euros or 13391.60 USD to drop to buy level 13 runes...I'm not sure if you're aware of this.
Those that have that money and are willing to spend it on Allods are probably already playing I cant imagine they're thinking they'll spend another £10K rerolling on a new server just to be better than a couple new players?Not everyone has 12174.18 Euros or 13391.60 USD to drop to buy level 13 runes...I'm not sure if you're aware of this.
of course not everyone can or want to give away that amount of money, but those who can and are willing to will do i guess, so what the poster above wrote that nobody would start ith 13's is unlikely... the faster you have them the longer you can enjoy them...
so the "slow start" will only affect farmers
I would end up quitting before starting again on another server, unfortunately.

Hey all,Quoted
Really do hope that what mhuldoon said is true and that we wont get a new server.
