"Not enough demand for fresh servers"

So, Skyfury queue is 5K strong atm, over 80 mins. You’ve forced all pvpers that aren’t EU that want to play on a fresh start WOTLK server, onto 1 server, only 2 servers total, one pvp, one pve. This is all OCX (oceanic) all SA/CA/NA. At what point did your team think this was going to be okay Blazurd? Smol indy company that you are. Ya really screwed the pooch here, which isn’t surprising considering your office history… O.o

Can you please open 1 or 2 more fresh start PVP servers please, and allow people on Skyfury or whatever the fresh start PvE server is to xfer for free to them? I don’t even care if it’s NA and not OCX at this point. Just ANYTHING. I would like to be able to play the game.

Thanks.

once wrath comes out it will die once people are done touring it

Why? Skyfury is amazing. We don’t need to split the player base anymore.

Doubtful. Loads of people do not want broken economies littered with GDKP exploit runs of established servers. There is absolutely no point in tourism other than the streamer neckbeard fangirls.

Because of the 80+ minute queues.

Again, doubtful.

They don’t need to add any more fresh servers, they will tank players fast.

Yeah I was pumped to start leveling for wrath. Every pvp server is full with an hour que. Fun times

No, you do not want another fresh realm opened. Once the newness has worn off you want a still populated functioning realm. That won’t happen if its fractured into 3-4 realms.

When classic vanilla first launched, they only had 6(?) servers and queues were really bad. So they added a bunch of new servers over the next few weeks, and in about six months over half were basically dead. Wait for a few months after wotlk launches and if skyfury still has a queue time, then ask for more fresh servers. Historically speaking for new expansion launch, 80 minute queue time is actually pretty tame

You have another fresh server. Nobody plays it because everyone wants to be on a megaserver.

Look at what’s happening with free transfer off Bene/Grob/Faerlina.

Sulfuras is full.

What’s your point? There are still perfectly functional servers sitting untouched while players suffer through the queues of over-capacity mega servers, by choice.

There is even another Fresh server with disproportionately fewer players than Skyfury. But no, everybody wanted to play on the Full server.

JFC. Take the lesson from SoM and Classic at large. You don’t need more servers unless you want a bunch of dead ones.

Our server is great – but 4 layers is moronic.

I have been waiting 85 minutes so far for queue. When I enter, I will post what layer I am on, and how many in total there are.

My prediction: 4.

Which is the whole problem. But, maybe I’m wrong.

EDIT: I just watched my position go from 642 to 643 in the queue. I have no idea how that is possible.

Right supposedly fresh wasn’t wanted, or dead, etc… and yet here I am waiting in queue. Been here since day 1 of the server launch and now I can’t even log in.

So, apparently if I’m not dumb, I can only see THREE layers currently (upon my login) according to Nova – so it’s even worse than we thought. If anyone else sees something different on Skyfury please let me know – I’m not in a main city so the NPC thingy might throw that off.

3/5ths of the server will elave when WOTLK drops. They are all here because there is nothing else to do and Fresh is fun

Indeed, I made it to SW, and there are THREE FREAKING LAYERS (officially) which was our whole problem. During this entire day there were four – why in the world reduce that amount to three? How about eight or something on a holiday weekend? Bizarre. I mean, isn’t the computer smart enough to know how many layers it needs?

there is a demand for servers
not necessarily fresh

So, you haven’t actually learned ANYTHING about Fresh tonight in the dozens of posts.
