Servers Locked Again..!!

They already told you that the servers won't be available for char creation because they are to full. there won't be any char creation till a couple of days. choose another server that is not so full. Sucks for you but I hope you get more luck next time.
Don't wanted too sound offended

They need to lift this lock ASAP. For people wanting to play with friends in a server that is locked this is the same as not having the game you PAID for.

You gotta wait for the new players without plans to filter to other servers first. It's inconvenient and unlucky but necessary to avoid population issues on any server.

Choosing another server isn't really an option when all our friends are already on the world that's locked. This is a really bad way to handle this in my opinion. They should at least let us create the character and then put us in a queue. Leaving players to spam the refresh key until it unlocks is just bad design... We basically cannot do anything until they lift the restrictions. So what's the point of EA?

It's interesting how people are supposed to "suck it up" because they cannot create character on the first day of the EARLY ACCESS.

I agree that server lockdowns need to be lifted ASAP, lots of new players were not able to play the beta and are waiting to join their friends during this early access.

...actually they said,

"In addition, in order to avoid server congestion related issues from multiple characters concentrating in the starting areas, we may implement restrictions on logins and/or the creation of new characters for a period of time after the servers open to the public"

No it is not. SE have NEVER guaranteed that you'd be able to log onto a specific server and play with specific people. It isn't SE's fault that some servers are more popular than others.
You're frustrated and I can understand why, but this problem is simply unavoidable. There is only so much space available, and once it is full, it is full.

It's not acceptable, period. We paid for this, why should we move to another server with no friends then pay for a transfer later? what is wrong with you people.

unlock the servers and use the queue system ffs.

I think this is only partially true. Otherwise, they could not add processing or storage power to the server to alleviate congestion (like it was done for beta phase 4).

This is a multiplayer game. The main reason Im playing this game is because it is cross platform and that allows me and a group of friends to play together. I think it is a reasonable expectation to be able to play with you friends in a multiplayer game. Not being able to do so kind of defeats the purpose of the game. So for a lot of us this is unacceptable, comparable to not having the game at all. A game that was preordered and payed for in full before release on the promise that on this day I would be able to play this multiplayer game with my friends.
