Outland: Launch Day

[Pacify]

cap should be 6k.

[Enory]

3K in queue, Rip start event......

Sorry if that sounded brash, but what I meant was icecrown is very stable at 12,000, why estimate Outland so low? Surely it would hold with 8,000 and a queue.


Also premium doesn't queue skip for outland?

The population is spread across the game on Icecrown. Right now on Outland, everyone is in the starting zones. The cap will be raised in steps so long as the realm remains stable.

There isn't queue skipping right away. This will remain until we are able to properly gauge the realm's stability.

I hope when the cap is increased you get in in the queue, no need to relog.

[Jumpz]

where can you see the place at the que?

Makes sense I guess, I think I'm more annoyed that there's likely someone without premium just sitting there creating characters with popular names.

Queue hasn't moved 1 spot for 10 minutes

All very reasonable points. But, since I'm obligated to join the impatient herd...do you estimate that this will be a matter of minutes, hours, or days?

[chargebg]

This is a joke. Being premium and waiting in queue like a peasant...

[Malbork]

[IcarNS]

Oh boy, I'm in.

[Enory]

We'll definitely be adjusting the cap over the course of the day as people start spreading out into other areas of the game. Granted it's x5 EXP rates, you can probably expect the cap to be raised fairly soon.

The cap is currently 10k.

My opinion is that premium should start at lvl 20, lvl 15, lvl 10 and 5 so not all ppl start in the same area and more ppl can play at the same time.
