    They're doing something to the servers?

    I'm surprised there aren't more threads about this earth-shattering bit of news...

    I think implementing a few Global servers is a terrible idea because everyone is going to gravitate to them on principle alone, leaving the other servers as being a literal waste of money ghost-towns and the "global" servers will be nothing but lag due to the sheer volume of people. IMO you can't have it both ways. It's either gotta be 100% global, or 100% regional. Doing it half and half won't get us anywhere.

    Anyone who thinks regional servers will have "super busy prime-times" and NO people on at any other time has either never played another MMORPG or clearly doesn't understand timezones, or that there are more than 10 people who will be playing the game.

    People who have played a variety of online games know that your logic doesn't really hold up, or at least they should. Posts like this seem to be based more on fear of the unknown more than anything else. "What's going to happen, oh I don't know, we need to suggest alternatives that won't make us anxious!"
