Lodestone: Preventing Congestion on High Population Worlds

[Shilvers]

Umm, we only have one data center in the EU.

It is more likely that they add another couple of worlds to the existing data center than open up more data centers. Even if they did open up another data center, then it would be more than likely worded as "across both [EU] data centers". Opening up any more data centers in the EU would just be creating multiple dead worlds with no one on them, imho.

To put peoples minds at ease, I think it is worthy of a rep response on the forums for clarification.

All Worlds on the EU data center are presently experiencing high levels of player congestion. To resolve this issue, new Worlds will be added at the release of 4.0.

From the wording on there they are not planning to create a new data center rather add more worlds to the current one.

Which is why, from their wording, it does not apply to just the EU. "across all data centers." If it were as you say, it would say "across both data centers", and also why I suggested a rep response here on the forums to clarify.
