Datacenters: A Plea For Community Building, Not Fracturing

[Dzian]

Because the instance servers are split by datacenter, as is lobby servers. This is effectively adding 50% more instances to the NA world's.

OK maybe it's too early for me but how do you work that out. having 3 datacentres instead of 2 isn't magicallly going to mean 50% more people playing or running instances.

all it means is the people running them will be much the same only split across 3 ares not 2...

so instead of say 2 data centers with 15,000 players each. you'll have 3 data centers with 10,000 players. in both cases there's still only 30,000 players so the number of instances won't really change.
