First of all I want to welcome those that will migrate from Galveston and Houston to Juarez. I hope that they will bring some activity in this dead world.
I want to share my thoughts about the migration routes that
are and will open in the future.
Firstly I would separate this worlds in two categories.
a)
Old worlds : Those worlds are the ones that
already have players migrated there from closed worlds (W1 and on) or from other markets.
Those worlds are:
Arizona, Briscoe, Colorado,Dakota,El Dorado, Fairbanks
b)
New worlds : Respectively, those worlds who did not have any prior migration from very old worlds
Galveston, Houston, Idaho, Juarez,Kansas and so on
Why did I make this distinction?
Generally, it is better to to be able to migrate to a world older than yours, so that the balance is easy to be kept. However when many years pass, there is not that much of a difference an 8 year character or a 12 year character.
If you check
this thread, it is easy to understand that worlds of case (a) have more developed players than those in case (b). Also
worlds in the same case have about the same developement. So it is wise that players from case A can move to other A worlds, whereas B worlds can move either on A or B.
Also,
Colorado should not be left out of migration routes. Game has moved to a point that classical or enhanced premium settings have no difference, set items "decide" your competitiveness nowadays.
Taking into account that, in my opinion migration routes in the near future should look like that : (with bold, the worlds that will recaive people)
Arizona
Briscoe ---> Arizona, Colorado,Dakota, Fairbanks
Colorado
Dakota (not much potential, but it is already open for other markets also and maybe more will come).
El Dorado ---> Arizona, Colorado, Dakota, Fairbanks
Fairbanks
Galveston ---> Arizona, Colorado, Dakota, Fairbanks, Juarez
Houston ---> Arizona, Colorado, Dakota, Fairbanks, Juarez
Idaho ---> Arizona, Colorado, Dakota, Fairbanks, Juarez
Juarez (To be honest, I think Kansas has bigger potential to keep as a migration route from the "newer" worlds, but since it has already been chosen for migrations from G,H let's stay like that)
Kansas ---> Arizona, Colorado, Dakota, Fairbanks, Juarez
*Las Vegas and Montana are too new yet (maybe with less activity than anticipated though).
