How about lower the population cap to something blizzlike.

[Nalzyrak 1]

shit is too overpopulated while leveling. takes atleast 5x longer to do anything...

Elysium realm is way to populated, they should consider putting a cap on like blizz. I doubt the server would handle it in the long way, if the population keeps increasing.

Nope.

If you are going to say no, give a reason as to why. Don't be apart of the crowd that thinks others are mind readers. Be intellectually responsible. Share your reasons.

 

ON TOPIC: 

If they were to decrease the realm population to blizzard standards then they would need to open more realms.

The population of all realms is healthy and high enough.

Sure, there are times when you feel like Elysium is overpopulated. Just like old Nost PvP had peaks of 15k and yes that is too high.

 

The elysium staff "fixed" this peak amount through queues, so the hardware will survive anyways. The actually planned population cap on old Nost PvP was apparently between 18-22k, where the hardware would reach its highest limit.

 

If people are tired of queues, they'll switch to Zeth'Kur or the other servers eventually.

Reminder that a blizzlike max population was around 2.5k. So if a server has more than 1k up to 2k+ its a high pop server.

 

Dynamic respawn and other systems are in place to fit the amount of players for each server. Yes, thats not exactly "blizzlike", but its a private server staff who runs everything in their freetime. You can't expect them to make 10-20 servers with 2-3k players each so you have an actual blizzlike experience in regards of population.

The hardware nowadays is way better than back then. Running one server with up to 10k isn't an issue at all if you tweak some systems like respawns.

 

Completly fine and good experience.

While there is no cross realms at all, pvp players are happy for that amount of players. If u dont like, go on pve server with lower population and dont waste time by making these thrash posts about "lowering population".

Piss off. Go back to retail.

[Glenzig 34]

Go play on the fresh server.

Lets say the population will peak up to for example 22-24k, shouldn't there be taken action i doubt the server will handle it. I mean if the population keeps increasing there have to be some sort of action, or else the hardware wont survive.

It won't ever peak at 22-24k because the cap is already set at a limit much lower than that.
