Subject: New Oceana Preferred realms on the Horizon? |
| |
Surveys show that Frostmourne (only "official" oceana preferred pvp server) has a login queue 40% of the day. There's even a queue to get in over my lunch break! :) Now regardless of how accurate a third party survey is, the point of this post holds very true.
When I get off work at around 4:30pm (Gmt+9) there's usually a 4-500 person queue. If I get disconnected or have to restart in the next couple hours it's usually around 750-800.
I remember one of the first times you released new pvp servers (wasn't it firetree/spirestone?) the response was so strong that you made new ones a few days later. A while later many of the people that restarted there either quit, went back to their old servers, or rerolled again leaving it low population. I suspect that you haven't created new oceana servers because you're worried about the same thing happening here, but I believe you're wrong.
Since the server was created the queue has been getting steadily worse. The first few days it was around 3-400 at peak time, but as I said now I've seen in excess of 800 several times. Given that it's the only officially endorsed oceana pvp realm, I believe this will only get worse as time goes on. As Oceana players on other realms or new to the game realize the advantage we have in a community that plays when we do, they're just going to keep coming.
The holidays are coming, and I don't see this relenting. Whether new servers are planned or not, could you shed some light on what your stance is on the issue?

We're monitoring it and we'll release more realms as necessary, never fear. :)
It's dark.
