Too late the servers are already massively overpopulated

Fixed.

There are enough servers for nobody to have a queue ever.

By 3:30 yesterday Arugal had a queue around 4+ hours that proceded to get worse.

Perhaps it just isnā€™t as bad on Herod as the other big three.

What is your point? If you donā€™t play on the servers with the issue your opinion does not matter, people arenā€™t going to willingly transfer especially day 1 players on the servers.
Layering is desperately needed for these servers in question.

I applaud you Blizzard. Good decision. :clap:

A ā€œFullā€ Server should, by definition, be full. But because its not, players think thereā€™s just enough room for them to slide on in without creating mayhem. But because Blizzard wonā€™t just enforce some hard and fast rulesets, (ie. making Full realms not able to be transferred to because guess what, theyā€™re Full) this [Censored] show happens.

I was on Whitemane and I transferred soā€¦

Having to coordinate multiple 40 man raid groups around a 7 hour queue is a small price to pay for what ? people hopping layers to get twice as many herbs ? come on man lmao

They addressed the issue with world bosses by removing layering.

So yeahā€¦ Thereā€™s that.

Not exactly how that works. Probably more like 2-3 hours early. Most people log in around the same time.

It does. My queue was 2 hours last night. It was longer for people that logged in later probably peaking around 3-4 hours. Tonight Iā€™ll be sure to be in early to avoid that.

There was one Oceanic PvP server on release, they panic released other servers after release when people were well into leveling. ā€œenough serversā€ okay.

Kaivax what was the point of you asking us in a previous post what fix we would like implemented when you guys were only going to come back twice with minor fixes that only would have fixed the problem at hand MONTHS AGO and not NOW.

Do you guys just like to pretend you take feedback and care what your customers have to say? Cause it certainly feels like you guys pretend, its quite patronizing actually, and one of the issues many players had with retail was the fact that Blizzard seems to think THEY know but THEY donā€™t and never listen to the base.

Once again we have been asking you to implement these temporary fixes which include LAYERING and INCREASES IN SERVER CAP to the servers affected by the queues. Please start listening and stop pretending that you guys listen.

Fix this mess you should have fixed a long time ago. Thank you.

So what you are saying is in the 7 months this game has been out there has been less than 1 week without enough servers and multiple chances of free transfers?

The open letter blue thread asking what people want is pretty split if you havenā€™t read it.

There are two full servers and a completely dead one, it may be easy to just transfer servers on a whim when you have no friends but we arenā€™t all in that position.

Then how did all these people that transferred recently TO the full servers do it?

And maybe if people transferred that server wouldnā€™t be dead?

ā€¦ temporary is 60+ days? Cause thatā€™s so far how long weā€™ve had queues on Whitemaneā€¦

2 weeks before classic even launched Blizzard made many posts that some servers (Whitemane, Herod, etc. specifically mentioned) would experience long queues and it would be recommended to play elsewhere.

Sure. Temporary is any amount of time between 0 seconds and the end of time.

In this particular case somewhere between now and Classic BC launch when a mass exodus will most certainly occur. But Iā€™m sure itā€™ll die down a bit before then.

Desperately hoping for the part where they say ā€œā€¦and weā€™ve added layers to whitemane so you dont have to que in at 8am to raid at 10pm at night!ā€
