Idea : Invite to locked server codes

[Kaethra]

Be partient an wait. The game will not stay like this for longer than a month or 2.

I don't believe this is an acceptable solution for a subscription based game. And even if it wasn't. A 30-60 day wait for a purchased and downloaded product is going to try even the most patient.

Where are they supposed to make a character? Which server in the list:

lol! when is that list from? Currently there are 3 standard servers on Primal and Lamia is still accepting new characters tonight. in a couple hours the other 2 might open up (exodus and famfrit).

As if people would totally not sell them

Exactly. I can’t make a character on his server and he can’t make one on mine. We tried the alt thing months ago but neither one of us wanted to invest in characters we don’t care about. If Leviathan opened at some point between then and now, I couldn’t tell you. We ended up playing a different game.

If they really can’t allow anyone in, then they need to open new servers in the same data center with free transfers for those on the problematic servers, with an option for full FC transfers. I’m sure people would jump at that for the chance at housing alone.

Yeah, honestly, the servers aren't as full as they're being made out to be. Any time I log into Sargatanas during peak, I have a queue of maybe 20. I log in to Mateus, where my friend had to make his character and I made an alt there, and it's a queue of almost 100. I really hope this 'congestion' status lifts soon so that he can transfer.

And yet we’re still waiting for it in Twintania and Spriggan..

The servers will open back up again, the expansion has barely been out 2 weeks. Things will settle down but right now,yes everyone under the sun is logging in as often as possible just be patient.

"The possible Solutions don't suit me"
"I expect SE to offer a Solution that is more comfortable for me"
"I don't think people without ties to a Server should be allowed to move as they please but this should not restrict me"

Oh my god, what a thread Move away from your Server and if your harem loves you so much, they can also move.

Yeah.... nothing suggested has been a "possible solution". The only actual solution is one that... actually resolves the problem. Sorry, but "just switch servers and lose your housing" isn't a solution. The main people going for the free world transfer to preferred servers are those without housing or established FC ties. Couple this with the fact that the servers they want you to transfer to actually have WORSE queues than the servers that are "congested".... yeah, not a solution, friend.

In which case, he will have to wait. Although if that IS the case that all of Aether and Primal are fully congested, and Crystal is congested in all but 3 servers, then new realms need to be added to the datacentre. Speaking of, the entire mana data centre is congested right now. I just checked now. Same for Aether. But there are 3 Primal worlds accepting new characters right now. In fact, Lamia is the home of a famous casual raiding group, so they'd have fun there I reckon.

There are technical reasons why they can't just make the servers accept more people. Having worked in the IT field myself and even having done some software development, eventually it gets to a point where simply "throwing more servers at it" will stop working.
