:eek:My guild didn't get a chance to pick servers, SWOR assigned us to an over populated server. I am not too sure if the decision to put a dis-portioned amount of guilds on one server was the idea of the upper management or just the luck of the draw. What I do know is that these queue times are an inconvenience for a lot of people. My guild does not want to take the time to re-roll (even thou it has only been a few days) hopefully SWOR will fix the issue keeping in mind the influx of players who will log in on the 20th. If possible more room needs to be added to these servers. December 20th needs to be a fresh start for the Community of Star Wars Old Republic. The developers and the managers who hold their strings have a moral obligation to the community of SWOR to make this game fun, and fun is not waiting for one hour to enter the game then DC and wait another hour. This is not a ride at the amusement park it is a community of people who help create the pay checks of the employees of Bioware and ER. Time is money. I do not have time to wait an hour in fact I cannot afford to wait even 5 minutes in order to long into a game. We waited three years for SWOR and talked about how cool it would be if they made one before it was ever a thought in Bioware’s mind. If they do not make more room on these servers or move guilds to lower populated servers all the naysayers will be right and this game will not be successful as projected.
To the SWOR Bioware/ER team the paradigm that you have needs to change. Instead of thinking “they waited three years, they can wait five minutes to five hours to enter the server” is a falsehood. Instead you need to realize that you are pushing away business and come December 20th. In fact word has already got out that there is an hour wait to enter servers. The presidents of Bioware and ER are going to crap a brick when they see the projection numbers regarding the amount of money they turned away because of this. You have put together a wonderful game, but if it does not make money, your budget for improvements will like a SWG not a WOW.
