PVE Server Population Cap.

[Bolk 0]

I've noticed while waiting in the 2 hour ques that the online population on the PVP server is double that of the PVE server. Is there any plans on the future to increase the Population Cap to reduce que times? Or is the Elysium banking on people fleeing to the fresh start pvp server next month?

My hope is they will see what a success the launch has been in terms of players and release the Fresh Start server sooner than they planned on. I'm one of those people who are just waiting for it...

I hate PvP servers as getting corpse camped by people is not how I want to spend my free time. I have a day job so I wish for my time to be spent in a manner in which I enjoy.

 

I guess I can only hope for a bigger PvE server, until then 2000+ queue times

Once the fresh PvP server releases, both current servers will notice a drop in population. My guess is our PvE server will stabilize somewhere between 3500 and 5000 online. On weekends maybe we could reach the cap of 6000.

 

I don't really want the PvE server to grow as big as the PvP server, 5000 online is more than enough. With 10000 online it gets too crowded everywhere soon and you won't be able to find good farm spots anymore.

Same here.  I think it's the holidays for some people though, so I expect that the queue time will go down significantly after the first week of January.  

 

Don't give up!
