Yes they had too little servers. Servers that i planned didn’t work out and ended in random server.
I think they should have servers with name or description for countries like France, Germany and several english servers so its easier for players to co-op. Now all are spreaded around and no idea with what people you play in server. Server might be too small to if you need tons of servers.
exactly that’s the point ;D
let’s see where we get with this. we can only hope, but its far from a good experience for many (but at least, it can only get better from now on)
You’ll get no where, go read the posts made by Roxx.
End of conversation, take a break from the forums and enjoy playing Lost Ark.
Yes, but you can probably agree opening too many servers on launch only results in ghosttowns later on, with no server transfers to save anyone, even tho most of stuff is region wide so shouldn’t be a big issue anyway. Opening as needed is much safer controlled way to go.
Also, remember on headstart, many servers didin’t have queue. The problem was focused on a couple of them, while the rest were empty. Too many servers would only worsen this with too much spread. You want a balanced spread, not too much not too little.
8 more servers will be enough, and i even bet some won’t have queue problems as people will still tend to all go into 1 or 2.

They should delay that unimportant little fix update and dont ruin official launch in Europe.
Premiere is more important than few little fixes! We deserve maintenance, especially at beginning in the middle of the night as it was during first weeks in New World when people blamed them!..
Just ignore them mate, not worth it, and yeah, probably someones gonna get fired once they realize how disgusted some of us are with this situation, people who aimed for kaban wanted to get there for GvG/PvP content, nobody wants to move from there but still want to play with upcoming friends… So there is no other way but to wait for transfers.
Probably the ones who don’t get mad are just whiteknight solo players that didn’t get messed up cause of wanting to play with friends, sad

“some of us”…
Yeah over 1 million people played the game and 2-3 people raging in the forums will make them lose their mind and fire people 
2-3 people might be the amount of people you’ve talked with since you joined, check the entire forum, zone chat and wake up, also if you knew some friend groups you would know that everyone got somebody coming for f2p and got screwed.
1 million played, lets see by the end of the month how many players dropped and server occupation percentages compared to the launch in russia / korea 
If you are going to wait for server transfers you are in for a rude awakening.
TLDR: OP is making a mountain out of a molehill.
He’s hysterical over something that isn’t and hasn’t been an issue. Servers have been added to compensate for increased demand.

Fake and lies. There are 16 EU servers.
when the game started (which was the 8th) it was 8, and thats the point I am talking about. context is king, but when people don’t care, they don’t care
NW decided to make like a few hundred servers. Add in free transfers and literally hundreds of servers died on the spot because people piled into literally <10 servers. GG
as said, adding servers like a madman every new day isn’t solving the server queue problem and is fueling ghosttown servers because you don’t get healthy populations like that.
what they DID is exactly what led to this situation which is the very reason they are doing damage control. so wtf are you even talking about?
Yeah mate. At New World launch I had to create my character from scratch three times in a row to escape queues then gave up.
what they did in NW is exactly what they did here. they started with a VERY very tiny number of servers, and after Queues started to get to 24hrs long, they added server after server every day. Now they wonder why the server they added last got ghosttowns when its was only to avoid the queue of the others…
And sure you have an spike at release, but this is no spike, its not meeting demand which is exactly the reason - AGAIN - why I wrote what I wrote and why it is not only the same like NW but NW is an great example why you don’t do that.
Ignorant as f* when you already had your demonstration. Well done.
You are partially right but also keep in mind the reason of ghost servers in NW was not only due to too many servers. Game itself was absolute shit.
Remember population cap per server was 2K ?
release was 8th, release for f2p is 11th. so what are you trying to prove? that I am right? thanks.
they doubled the servers in only 3 days. its ridiculous
dunno what you try to prove here. the 8 servers are not even full at all. And for f2p launch they slap 10 more server on it
