Ankido Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 I'm a little concerned about the servers. Upon launch there were so many full servers and now there's more light and standard over heavy and full. I'm just worried maybe nobody is interested in the game.

Maerdyn Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 hm, my opinion - no, not yet. Tonight if you want to play you will wait 5 hours :-x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zakuras Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 You must be in the US. Because EU realms are full with queue times. No one seems to be joining the new light realms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fentz Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 they opened more, however new people just jumped into the ones people allready have high lvlv chars on -.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeeeeZ Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 they opened more, however new people just jumped into the ones people allready have high lvlv chars on -.- For that reason, BW should have locked the Early Access servers for, say, 2-3 days, so no new characters could be created on them during the bulk of the launch.

Makoun Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 If new players who aren't friends with someone on a full server join the queue... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shige Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 For that reason, BW should have locked the Early Access servers for, say, 2-3 days, so no new characters could be created on them during the bulk of the launch. Which would suck for people who aren't settled on a character and wish to create an alternative one on a server where their guild and friends are...

zeroburrito Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 they released a crap load of new servers, but the new players are obviously going to join heavy servers, not light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tjomek Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 200 people infront of me in the queue, at 11.30 am on a workday, i am scared of what prime time queues will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hung_H Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 they also increased servers with heavy populations with more player slots so more people can play on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deviss Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 They actually did increase the capacity of all servers. If you did not notice, yesterday in the evening there was no queue estimated time logner than 30 minutes on even the mostly populated servers, while before some queues could take up to 1-2 hours. Good job BioWare! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guinden Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 THey actually decreased the max pop on all servers after maintenance and theay raising it by a few hundred in every few hours as it seems. There are only a few hundred people on each servers which are "full" now. This is they way they want to spread the new players... An odd way if you ask me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elixx_Deco Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) 200 people infront of me in the queue, at 11.30 am on a workday, i am scared of what prime time queues will be. same i logged on 400 que wth they will probably be lovered once ppl settle down. Im not to worried. It will make your server more future safe tough. And you can play with randoms after and before primetimes. I usually play late, and thats where the low pop servers fall. Sinc ethere is so little people to grp with etc. Edited December 20, 2011 by Elixx_Deco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teddyscheffer Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 The is just BS , they should have closed the servers to new people. 50% of the EU servers are light and 50% is full , this is just insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VonZimmerman Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Full, light, light, light, light, light, light, light, light, light, light, light, light, Full, Full, Full...

RamGuy Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 You also have to consider the fact that the http://www.swtor.com/server-status reflects the CURRENT load on the server, so a server might be listed as FULL at prime time, but LIGHT in the middle of the night when most people tend to sleep. Most players seems to completely ignore this, and just whine on about everything without even checking up things in advance.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kotli Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) TBH they should of done one of the following: A: Copied WoW server recommend tool, B: Put a peak load indicator on server select. Or C: just lock existing servers for ~1 day to force people to use the new servers IMO for new characters. Since they cant do any of that I want Free server Transfers to be implemented so I can get my charaters off of the stupid 30-1 hour queue server.

Ankido Posted December 20, 2011 Author Share Posted December 20, 2011 I'm sure they'll offer free transfer to light servers. I was just a little concerned thinking nobody is playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eXes Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 It would be silly to increase the server pop right now... with the new people starting today or those getting their game on christmas eve, they rather keep the cap for now so those players chose one of the new light servers.

Dragonlady Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 The problkem is more people wants to join a server where there friends are...and they tend to be full...ohh how I long to get home and wait a few hours before I get online haha. But what I dont get why coudlnt BW have increased the populatation. I dont know how much the cap is atm, but my experince from WoW if I remember correctly there was 4000 on every server ( correct me please if I am wrong) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthSeer Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Good news, I just went from 200-and-something to in within about 30 seconds, not sure what they've done but that's the quickest queue I've ever been in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
