Please Implement an Alternate Solution to World Overcrowding

[Tex_Mex]

Recently there have been many, MANY issues with servers being too crowded and it causing game instability. I get that. It is a common problem that many MMO's face and it has to be dealt with.

The route chose to deal with it in this game is just a flat out ban on character creation on many worlds. These bans have been temporary for many worlds, but unfortunately not all of them. Due to an unfortunate circumstance, I was unable to play the game on day 1 of early access and missed the ability to create a character on the Leviathan server. Sadly, about 6 of my friends did not miss this chance and all managed to get in. Since day 2 of early access, Leviathan has been sealed shut. I have tried refreshing at least 50 times in the last 3 days and I just cannot get in.

This leads me to a problem. If I cannot play with my friends, I just flat out won't play. I understand that server overcrowding is a big issue. That is not an issue, and even if it takes a couple of weeks to get it figured out, I am ok with that. What I don't want to happen is that they release the Leviathan server without any notice and then I miss my chance to get in again.

Please implement a character creation wait list so that I can have a guaranteed shot at getting into the world at some point in the future. Forcing me to log in every 15 minutes to check is simply not going to work for me now. IO know I am not the only person in this same situation. Help us out, and I'll be glad to help you out with a subscription
