    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.
    The number of players is still the same but the maximum number of instances that they can occupy is 50% larger. Normally we can enter an instance as soon as all roles have been fulfilled, but during expansion launches we may have to wait in queue until there is room for new instances. Having fewer players per instance server will help prevent problems like quest battle NPCs becoming unresponsive or housing being inaccessible. I think having another lobby server will have a similar effect on login queues (not sure about that).
