New Server - Horrible Idea

Recommended Posts

I'll just assume Tornadari is trolling

Unique players you imbecile, not characters. They were released based on account data.

>is against another server opening when it's next to impossible for like 20k people to even connect with these queues, only argument being "they'd quit anyway".

 

Queue is 11k and is literally not moving because people who are on the server don't wanna lose their spot. It's questionnable if one more server is even gonna be enough to fix this. Might need two servers.

 

Did someone drop you on your head when you were little?

It's really not, but just keep trying to convince others... maybe you might even find a fool or two.

What gives you the impression I care even in the slightest about lowbie ganking. I'll be going for GM again so why would I even begin to mess with my rating.

20k Queues? Really?

I haven't seen one.

It also gained tons of popularity in the months before it shut down, leaving many people stranded in the lmiddle of lvling.

Fair enough about the point on Unique players, chill though....

My point still stands and don't really get what you're worried about honestly. Like what's your point, you still can't refute the huge player base it has now and the gaining popularity. the funny thing is i can't believe im defending this project so much, im not even that big a fan, but im being real.

Lowbie ganking isn't a factor.

Concentrating end game raiding potential is what I'm mostly concerned with. 

You can do that with 1-2k active players. You currently have 10k on Nost.

 

Why do you think that the 30k+ people who want nothing to do with playing on the Nost server, have any effect on your potential raiding experience there?

 

Most people committed to playing on Nost are going to stay there. You'll have plenty of people to raid with for the entire life of the server.

My point two things happen when you dilute a playerbase 

- Player quality goes way down on one server

- Player number goes way down.

I don't want to have to reroll on whichever server retains the best PvE/PvP populations.

I couldn't be bothered to read every post but when there is 8k people online and 10k+ in queue i see absolutely no reason not to have another server.

That is simply not the case. 1-2k is simply not enough.

You're right if they announced this months after Elysium. It's a week later, 6 days actually with half the population under lvl 20 or not even have been able to play yet. If they didn't launch another server, MAYBE the queues would go down eventually.... but you're basically not allowing anyone with a work schedule or any other life activities to play on that realm and force them to move on to something else OR everyone just figures out the Queue times, log on before work and sit in there for hours or afk at char select for hours with the problem never being fixed and not addressing the fact the realm already has to many players anyways.

Ive repeated this like 5 times today throughout the forums. These servers were never intended for 10K+ population, the literal world itself is too small. You can increase the cap slightly but once you go over 8-9K is just a cluster fuck and definitely not "blizzlike" in any way. Im glad the populations will now be spread. That's perfect, and there's no reason or evidence to suggest it will decrease.

Vanilla WoW launch is perfect evidence.

For whatever reason people think it's normal to have 10k+ people on a single server but it's not. It's overkill by a large margin. Even if both servers went down to 3-5k population months from now that would still be a healthy pop. What did high pop blizz servers used to have back in vanilla? Probably not even that much. This idea that a private server needs a lag inducing 10k+ is ridiculous. Populations are going to be fine, trust me.

Just going to have to wait in see what tomorrow brings, and I have no doubt it will be beneficial to everyone. 

The issue it will cause will not be readily apparent for a few months but there will be issues.

I for one do not want to have to bother rerolling when the top tier PvE community migrates.

Woooow I was in queue since 13:00 and got in now, only to not be able to create a character and getting disconnected. 6h queue for nothing. Can't welcome the new realm enough.

No it's not.

Server merges will wreck server economies. It's literally not possible to do it without completely tanking any semblance of stability in the player economy. Not to mention faction imbalances.

Well if this is the case about economy then they can do what wow warmane have done.Reduce/cut all peoples gold by 50% and it will be stable.Warmane have done it for years and it has worked out nice.

So all of this uproar is because Tornadari is afraid the server he chose won't have the population, and guild competition HE wants. Really? Get over yourself

btw anyone who's played on other private servers knows you would get excited to see 500-1k people online, saying 1-3k pop is too low is just because you've been spoiled by a year of Nost's 10k overpopulation. The servers are already too crowded, camping mobs to grind from 1-60 wasn't intended nor is it fun. I'd welcome a zone or two with no one in it

People in this thread need to turn off their computers, walk to the nearest animal shelter (you probably need the exercise) and then hug dogs for a while.
