    what is says is they are controlling the number of people logging in to each server. by doing this they raise or lower the amount of people able to log in at a given time. so say they are limiting to 3000 people logged in and say teh queue system holds 1000. Anyone past that 1000 will get 1017 error. The highest ive ever had in queue howerver is been 200 ish. So they are limiting the log ins to prevent the server from reaching cap to prevent other systems from failing. the first couple of days of EA had no caps on log in restrictions i still had a que to get in. but once i was in nothing worked the dutry finder broke leves didnt work it was a mess. After that they put an artificial cap on how many people can be logged in to the server at a given time and then watch each server as needed and raised and lowered the queues as needed. anyone out side that queue line got the 1017. And that is what we are still currently seeing.

    And there is your artificial login restriction. Not the max players cap change, but who can be queued or not.

    incorrect. that is a different system.. that system can only hold a finite amount of people thats why its being upgraded in the data center, the cap on the server it self is being lowered to prevent things like the duty finder from breaking and to prevent overloads in zones from crashing the whole server.
