So, instead of having these as totally separate entities.. would it be at all possible for PGI to just mirror all of our accounts on both servers?

Sure, community warfare may need to be kept separate due to ping differences, but I see no negative to having all of our accounts on both servers.

- Players from the EU wouldn't have to choose between leaving their friends in the US.
- Units wouldn't get gutted.
- When not playing with their US friends, EU players could play on their own servers, and since they are mirrored... would make progress on both servers.
- Splitting the community, especially a small one is generally not a good idea, this would help to keep it together.

So, is this something that is out of the question?

I'd prefer this to the current PGI stance, considered this concept myself yesterday.

I have made many friends in Europe and Australia in this game.

It would be a shame to not be able to run with them anymore.

Agreed, I have friends all over the world in MWO now, and would hate to not be able to play with them.

Agreed, my group has guys from all over the world, it would be a shame to split the family up in such a way.
