yes a long time ago, they merged them all into a server called Novus, now that RF Online is free a second one was made called Lumen. And now that both servers are sort of full they made a third called Solus.

"I'll fully translate these later, but what it's saying is quite... shocking and amazing.
Here's a little teaser for you guys
The role of guilds and party cooperation will be infinetely vital in planet wars due to ship to ship battles.
A guild can purchase and control a battleship, in which more than 50 members can reside. Furthermore, the guildmaster shall become the captain of the ship.
In the battle, it is the guild members' use of the ship's armanents, the fighters and the robot units that will decide the outcome.
Ship to Ship battle can occur very simply, as "Ship to Ship battle: Surprise attack" can be initiated through a ship attacking another.
Otherwise, one ship can send a challenge to the other, thus leading to ship to ship duels.
The amount of these battles fought and won by the guild will effect the guild's nature and trait, as one whichis focused on ship duels will possess honour and such, whilst another guild that ambushes or raids others will be known for it's outlaw feel.
HOW SHIP TO SHIP BATTLES ARE FOUGHT
If you thought dog fighting was all to these battles, you have been grieviously mistaken.
Each ships posess shields, point defence turrets (To fend off fighters and robot units) and also main cannons (To damage the opposing ship).
Furthermore, the ship's light and heavy fighters will play a vital role, however the craft that can really turn the tide of the battle are the infiltrator crafts.
These crafts can carry a number of players, infiltrate inside the enemy ship and attack the ship's internal components or the crew itself.
The above method of fighting will be identical to the method of battle that players are used to in Novus.
However, infiltrator crafts have no weapons, thus will make easy prey for enemy fighters and turrets without escorts.
The winning guild would receive a vast amount of money and pvp points.
However, the losing team will only have to repair their battleship.
These ship battles are also vital in the faction wars, as it decides decides the ownership of spacestations near the place of battle.
EPIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIC!!!!!!!!!!!"
