GSF Server Consolidations

[Keebus]

In the absence of cross server queues I propose a soft schedule for avid GSF enthusiasts to refer to in order to find matches. I know that for me living in California, for my mornings, I will tend towards EU servers, and around my mid-day, hit up the NA EC servers and especially for late night, I expect there to be a glut of pilots on Harbinger (until the cycle repeats itself).

 

I know this may ask of some to re-roll and to start a hangar from scratch. And server lag will definitely be a factor for others. However, for the sake of growing the game and supporting the community, it sometimes falls on the players to find ways to make do with what the dev's have provided.

 

Many people, such as Drak and Yallia have hosted such fun events as Super Serious, as well as Stock nights. And while those events are awesome, they are generally once a month, and some people may not always be able to attend.

 

For a more consistent schedule, I would suggest these as loose times ( all times PST )

 

04:00 - 10:00 = the Red Eclipse

12:00 - 18:00 = (One of the 3 . . Jedi Covenant / Shadowlands / Ebon Hawk)?

21:00 - 03:00 = Harbinger

 

This is not to say that GSF queues wouldn't remain completely the same, as they exist today. Most people are going to continue to queue wherever and whenever they please. However, it would merely suggest that if your 'home' server happens to have a low population at any particular time, it is nice to know that there is somewhere you can go in search of a match.

 

Further, this is not an indictment of the servers not listed. Each server is different and has unique players / games to offer. I would happily start on a new server if I knew I could consistently find matches whenever I wanted a queue (in a timely manner)

 

Any suggestions / alternatives are welcome, and keep on q'iing.

Bad idea on all fronts.
