    Actually, doing some queue times to try and see how hard it is to queue for 24 mans, it is an incredibly long wait to get into copied factory most of the time on crystal. The queue times have been something like 25+ minutes on a DPS and that is with a special event going at the same time.

    As this MMO ages things are going to get really hard to run under the current design, including savage eventually when that population burns out (and it has been burning out pretty badly going into the tail end of tier 2). Hollow Earth going into full swing with this MMO just like it did with WoW most likely.

    The latter is why I love rolling mountain, future proofing, and even before blue mage actual launch was like... oh.. this could actually help with content death (and was okay with the idea of limited under the understanding it would be solo-king)!

    Presumably as some point when the game reaches a decline state, they will have to start either shutting down underpopulated servers or merging data centres together, if they don't overcome the inter-DC queue barrier before that point.
