I just met someone by where I live (Puerto Rico) and she plays the game as well, but in Europe (don’t ask why) instead of North America (where I belong and been playing in for almost two years and we cannot do anything, but chat and send each other stuff.

When the megaserver was released I thought this problem could’ve resolved it since I can join my friend’s map whose in another server without having to the guesting process, but it just didn’t do anything when I tried joining her.

Can we have this function purty please?

Edit: I ask here since the devs do listen to people so.

I think the server architecture won’t let you do that. I’m not sure but I believe the physical servers are at different places for Europe and America. Because of that you can only guest to the worlds within the same physical server.. (Although information such as items, and messages can be transferred as data within the same game.) A dev also told me that server structures also differ between the two regions.

Sadly this division apparently is there to stay. The only option is transfer, but that comes with someone being only able to chat with their previous friends.

Yeah, we have 2 different Datacenters for EU and US, thats the reason it won’t happen.

EVERY MMO is awesome until it is released then its unfinished. A month after release it just sucks.
Best MMOs are the ones that never make it. Therefore Stargate Online wins.

It’s because the EU and NA player’s account information, along with the character information, is actually located in one of 2 places, a regional data center. One data center is in the US and one is in Europe. Since they are separate, in order to play on a different server group the whole account has to do a server transfer. Guesting, at this time, isn’t possible.
