We’re going to see a massive influx on one faction and a permanent queue there, while people can make freely on the other faction.
Then the streamer will likely quit in a week or two and the opposite faction will be locked near permanently to fill the void.
GG.
As said in my last thread - ban them from the RP-PVP server. They will legitimately destroy the entire community. Just make a streamer server or something.
And, since people have had problems mathing out logic before:
Streamer A: Brings in literally 10-15,000 people (this is possible) to Alliance. They’re stuck in a queue.
Players: Can only make Horde. Players keep making Horde until things balance.
Streamer A: Gets more people on Alliance after.
Players can only make Horde.
Streamer A: Gets bored and leaves. 10-15,000 people leave.
Players can never make Horde again.
Horde now have an insane queue that can never be balanced.
… You’re not answering the question. What valid reason do a bunch of streamers have to go to a ROLEPLAY server. When there’s two other PVP servers - EST and PST. And a Normal server?
Where did OP say that a bunch of people had a motivation to ruin his fun? He was illustrating the byproduct of their own prerogatives and their negative effects on the server.
Blizzard’s best course of action right now is to just name the PVP servers so the RPPVP server can be salvaged. The fact that the RPPVP server is the only PVP server that people can plan ahead of time to roll on, ensures that it will be the mega server. So their strategy has already failed. They need to damage control this by announcing the names of the PVP servers so if there’s going to be a mega server it will at least not ruin the RP PVP server.
Aside from that, not everyone will change their plans to roll on the RP PVP server, thereby actually homogenizing the population’s a little bit.
Oh, it was a genuine question? (Note: I did ask for clarification, particularly because you asked a question to my question, and it is confusing).
I suppose there’s a subset of infinite, or infinite possible answers to this question. It’s difficult to choose one.
However, I’m still left genuinely curious as to whether you have any reason whatsoever to believe that some group of streamers has decided to roll on the RPPVP server for SoD.
So, some completely unknown, mysterious, handsome, bearded gentleman says on a stream that, “I may play on the RP PVP realm. I haven’t really decided where I’ll play. I’ll probably decided on the day of…”
has caused you stress?
I suppose I can understand that. My take on it is that this person has not decided where he will play, and just casually mentioned the least likely server he would roll on to emphasize the lack of decision.
I think for most people avoiding streamer servers is ideal. Only their base will want to play on that server.
Being as respectful as I can when I refer to ‘streamer servers’, but the community is superficial due to their reliance on whether the streamers are playing.
It’ll be packed, for sure, but only until their streamer loses interest.
I applaud their efforts, but if they’re going to already limit people from piling onto one server, then just go ahead and name all the servers so at least people won’t target the RP PVP server since it’s the only one that’s targetable right now.
I think Blizzard should tag or flag the servers streamers goto. This way when you login it will show you the whats and wheres before you create a character.
