Thread: Raubahn Extreme will return? Version 6.0

You realize that 230,000 concurrent connections quote was said in 2013 right? I really don't understand your fascination of bringing long-dead, outdated things up to try and prove your points when plenty of evidence to the contrary exists (*cough* SHB launch being near perfect despite having well over a million players *cough*)

7 years in which they have physically moved the servers in two regions (NA & EU) to bigger centers, have done countless backend updates, and even directly mentioned adding more server hardware in the announcement post when they mentioned adding wards 22-24 right? Considering the unofficial census put SHB active characters at well over a million during the beginning of the expansion and the giant rush of players SHB day 1, 230,000 would be an insane lowball for what they'd need.

Countless others in this thread have explained how the login system queue works. The worlds aren't actually 'full'. The login servers are simply designed to only let x amount of players through the queue every y minutes, and anymore than that get put into the queue. You can quite easily see this the moment a new patch goes live and there's somehow a 4000 player queue despite the servers being up for 30s that steadily decreases by exactly 50 people each time. I somehow don't think 50 people are logging in then immediately logging out every 2 minutes. Believing the login server message indicates any form of congestion is dedicating your brain power to something that is literally a non-issue.

You're worrying over nothing. The SHB launch is literally the only thing you need to look at to determine if an issue might arise in 6.0. (Spoiler: SHB launch was near-perfect.) You should find something more productive to worry about.
