The population decreased significantly, the game is separated in instances, there's not even a difference between pvp and pve anymore since there's the pvp/pve instance, and the hardware shouldnt be really the problem since you dont really need to use ONE CPU for that.
So is there really a need for soo many servers? couldnt we just have 1 server east coast, 1 server west coast, 1 server europe? or if not 1 europe.. 2 in europe
I mean... more people makes the game more fun!
faster queues in flashpoints/pvps, more people doing operations, guilds with more people in it, more people to RP and interact with...
Just merge the damn servers already... Yes people will have change their names too bad you can at least put space in it so it shouldnt be a big deal. The legacy is merged anyways... yes the legacy bank may be an issue... but cant you just dump all his **** into a overflow bank? I saw that in diablo 3 I think, when u get rewards and your inventory is full everything extra goes into overflow. its like additional slots but its temporary and after you take the item out you cant put it back in.
Also... why the hell do the forums and the homepage have to go down every time u guys do maintenance? cant You have that on a different computer or something like that? at least the forums should work...
Its funny u guys ask us to go read about the update in the home page, then u click on it... it sends you to a maintenance page and you cant really do that.
