Maximum Realm Capacity Increased – August 28

Biggest Kappa i’ve ever seen in my life

Would like to know if this will effect people currently in q.
Have seen no changes at all on Stallag… loving the 745min q’s since release… fun times in Cleveland again!

nick(roommate) just came over and move his character. so slight account sharing

It’s been 25min since Kaivax posted it. Maybe the hotfixes started rolling out before the announcement, maybe slightly afterward. Takes time to roll out hotfixes to all the realms, and for the changes to filter down into the queues. It’s not going to magically change.

Also, if someone queue’d up before leaving for work/school, and then they come up to the char select screen, but aren’t home to log in, does that count as leaving the queue and freeing up a spot? Or does the system only free up a spot when a character logs into the realm proper?

Wow…I just looked, he sure is. This type of behavior needs the banhammer. I report every person I see that is macroing/jump in to walls to bypass the logout. They need to announce temp bans for people that do this, because I guarantee that is a large part of the long queues. The more people that see this done, the more will join in until it’s shown to not be tolerated.

Same here on Whitemane

While it is to reduce stress on the server, it should be noted that there are no instances of northshire. The layer is continent wide. I can leave northshire and still be on the same layer. It doesn’t work the same way CRZ and sharding works in 8.0

This comes too soon after my post, but I’m taking credit for this anyway.

Is this going to mess us over at P2?

I don’t want layering during phase 2

Did the hotfix already got through, or will it go through soon?

Yeah I just looked at his stream and saw it. Had to turn it off because of all the annoying people on that discord. :sweat_smile:

Finally? It’s been TWO DAYS since launch XDDD lmfaoo

Sodapoppin is literally sleeping on stream afk evading. Why is this allowed?

They’re making changes to allow more players to enter each realm.

More players might stick around on every realm.

That can cause problems in the future when they try to remove layering.

(I’m not disagreeing with their decision to do this now. Just acknowledging this might contribute to future queue problems.)

This is the problem I’m seeing too… They need to implement this AND lock High Pop servers until the hype dies down

Great news! Now most people can actually play!

When should we expect this to be pushed to all realms? How do we know if a realm is already affected? Herod sits with a 700minute queue time rn
