Yes, queues are really horrible, but there’s nothing we (the player) can do except use the tools available to us. Use the free transfers, if you want to play.
Dear Blizzard,
Please, just add like 100 layers per server, or whatever you need to do to let people log in.
It’ll literally cost nothing. You just haven’t pitched it and if the options are between staying and not being able to get on in a timely manner and playing in a less-than-megaserver population level. Then I think it’s pretty cut and dry. Just depends where your priorities are at.
I don’t think people realize that if they spread out, even just a little, it’ll be better overall. 90% of the people playing now, won’t be playing after the hype is over (or they “beat” it). Not only will it give the remaining players a couple more servers to play on, after the masses leave, but the queue times will be lower right now.
Honestly even if you did get on with Faerlina or Benediction, you’re not playing WotLK. You’ll be playing “Trying to find an un tapped mob for 6 hours so you can complete the very first quest outside of the towns in WotLK”
I’ll just be in retail getting all the things like timelost protodrake because people are too busy staring at a queue timer and can’t log over to retail.
i love how you’re on different threads defending blizzard’s atrocious handling of mega-servers. you’re completely glossing over many caveats to leaving a server. white knighting to the max bro
im on bene, people should use the transfer, but im not going to, and i assume many are like me. Our guild was on another server and we transferred to bene when it died, we never had a queue till prepatch.
give us free transfers after wards with 0 days cooldown and well consider. moving to a server that will probably die and require us to pay to transfer elsewhere isn’t that attractive. not going to happen. get creative please.
