I mean, they’ve warned people it’ll be full, if people don’t move it’s their own damn fault
Not really the players fault, this entire situation could have been prevented if they limited account creation to server capacity, then there would never be a que. But they (blizz) allowed to account creation to excede server capacity, the players didn’t do that.
Wouldn’t have worked either, people will leave and server pop will drop. Layering isn’t really that big of a deal. You’re trying to find a solution to a problem that already has a functional solution
Sure, currently (with layering) they can just collapse layers, or without layering they could merge servers.
A better solution would have been to a) make a South American server so people would actually roll on thalnos, b) not overestimate pve server popularity and c) not let the streamers cuck the server selection for the whole weekend so everyone decided to roll herod
Forces name changes, its easier to open new servers and let people transfer with their name.
While it is a solution, better is not the word I would call it. There is still server ques in your scenario.
But it’s more spread out, they probably could have gotten away with 2 pve servers making 2 more pvp and without sa taking a server and streamers confined to another the rest of the pop could spread out over 3-4. There’s going to be queues regardless, but at least it wouldnt be 10k+ queues
Not when the servers previously slated for mergers in advanced shared a naming pool.
Isnt that what layering is?
Except with the added skill or ability of phasing at will.
