Yes. 40 min. I don’t want to migrate because of the guild and friends. This would be the 2nd server migration.

I always love reading your responses. Just wanted to say that :slight_smile:

please people GTFO out of the full servers and go into the new servers with the free transfer… yall screwing it up the people that actually want to play classic as there main choice and making them wait 2-4 hours queues for no reason while the low pop servers cant get groups together because stubborn people dont want to xfer off

Exactly, no reason to move if I still can’t play with my friends that ended up scattered everywhere due to too few servers on launch–much better off staying on the high pop server they still want to move people from and hoping something like that happens in the future.

You got lucky, because the options for most people are to different servers, not the same one.

Funny how you’re calling others stubborn.

yea i did.

Kurinnaxx is not small. It’s high pop that hits full at some points, and even at high load we lag in spots.

Why didn’t you go with your friends to start with? That’s your mistake, not Blizzard’s. There are 4 low pop realms people can transfer to; other than that, you can reroll to be with the friends you should have rolled with from the start.

Please transfer to the new servers, we are having fun being able to play all day with no queues and with a healthy and growing population. Lets go!

Absolutely did. But that’s the tradeoff for being skullF***ed so hard by blizz on release in OCE. ONE pvp server?
Top kek.

The new servers are pretty much dead, I wouldn’t recommend heading there. Not to mention the queue times are already subsiding on the larger servers.

LOL

Is there a way to know if you can’t get your name and abort the transfer if not?

How many failed attempts to get people to transfer does Blizzard need to realize they need to open up transfers from any high pop server to any low pop so friends can move together that are scattered across many servers?

Agreed. Another RP-PVE server is not needed to dilute the role playing population. Let the non-role players have a free option to move.

Yeah I’d say just go into the server as if you were rerolling and see if your name is taken or not before using the transfer option.

Thank you Kaivax & team. This will help the Oceanic community tremendously- I’ve already seen some excited posters on the discord talking about how this will resolve the splits that occurred on day 1.

If possible, can you communicate regarding the increased server capacity that occurred a week ago to confirm if this is a long term or short term change.

there is this information. I can see this information being too low because not enough people are running this addon, however, I can’t see how this information would be too high and this is putting these servers at around 50k people.

I would recommend it, because the high pop servers are going to be a nightmare as soon as layering is removed. Come on down to arcanite reaper fellas!

No the point doesn’t remain at all. The only way to turn layering off is to wait so the entirety of the player base isn’t in the starting areas anymore. Layering never had and never will have anything to do with the queues. The queues happen when the absolute maximum of players is reached for the server overall. Again, layers helps regulate the numbers per zone and has zero incidence on overall realm pop. It’s a very simple concept that you seem to be unable to grasp. If anything you say is true, they wouldn’t have upped the limit of concurrent players to cut on the queues last week, they simply would’ve let the system generate more layers. They didn’t because, again, layers have nothing to do with the queues.
