You know what?
You’re right.
Considering this is Amazon games, they’ve done pretty well!
AGS at its best
Exactly in this scope. If that many founders were sold it is not hard to estimate the influx of F2P on launch
They actually have not done this non-stop at all. Adding excess servers is not an issue actually since you can very easily merge servers especially Amazon servers. So if some servers eventually run dry they can merge servers.
I can compare NW to this from a server and infrastructure perspective just fine. If you don’t get this you better use that link to figure that one out friend.
(and don’t come at me with anther google reference as I am a developer kiddo)
There is a pretty high difference between 550k and 1.3 million. As a " new " game launching in a new region where those type of games tend to get waaaaay less attention and in the span of a few days you can not realisticly expect everything to be done in less than a week.
When you remove the servers and merge communities those merged servers tend to suffer a lot, that is why you very rarely run the risk of adding to many servers, this you can find plenty of statements and examples from other mmos about and why merges should be a last resort always.
KR sits on 250k concurrent players and RU way less than that again. There is way more factors involved here than you understand, i suggest you read up a bit more how these things really work and the ammount of work that goes into these sort of things. Usually the people that complain and rant like this and do this kind of bashing do not understand half of the procedure.
And they knew it xD
I doubt there are any other server with mostly english speakers that isnt full to the brim 
I joined the same server due to the fact it’s meant to be mostly english speaking players on Kaden.
Sadly the queues are huge and it made me think if i should start over on another server too, but all servers are suffering.
I just hope they can resolve the issue soon. But this is normal… FFXIV Endwalker was actually worse than this. The queues were long and you could get kicked out and lose your place in queue.
Are Amazon paying you in vouchers or cash to White knight them like a teenage boy in front of his celebrity crush?
Pathetic
Got no problem throwing AGS under the buss for making trash of a game like New World, but people complaining and speaking out of their ass about technology and workflow they know nothing at all about can go and eat dirt.
Not whiteknightning shit, but i played mmo games for 15 years and i played about 90% of all the hyped mmos at laucn day and stuff like this do not happen that often on this sort of scale on a first time launch in a new region where the market for these types of games usually are shit and gone in 2 weeks.
This is not Activision Blizzard launching a new expansion with allready 6 mill players and a insane pre sale of expansions.
This was a launch where they tought that half a million players where plausible but no way close to 1.5 mill and here we are. Get some general IT knowledge that is not basic computer lab 101 and try to see how many corners you would need to cut to keep up with peoples expectations and how that would turn out in the end.
What is truly pathethic is ranting about stuff with no knowledge what so ever, like a autistic pidgeon.
I actually do know what i’m talking about. Stop assuming things you internet warrior.
Hello, I’m playing in France : If I launch the game now, can I expect to play tomorrow morning ?
edit : erf, no I can’t the server insults me by telling me that it is full and that I must to go fuck out
it’s really nice this game that I bought not to be able to play it when I want
DUDE they sold 1,2 million founder packs, that right there should have told them that EU region needs 2 ZONES (like USA have us east and west, same for eu). But EU, with way way more players than US (almost double) got just ONE zone, with LESS servers attached to it. You are full of it buddy, next time make sure you know what you are speaking about before trying to be smart, or you will get stepped on.
That’s the reason they open now (just now) a second zone to EU with a new host of servers. They surely had the data, and everything was expected and on the table, including 1,5 million concurent players.
Lucky. Waited almost 5 hours in an 18.7k queue.
They will ban you if you redeem tha founders pack you already used. There is whole thread about it …
if i could only get into queue. it closes my game after displaying message about heavy traffic or something. i got lucky and it loaded me once but it soon crashed my computer after trying to log in into one of the servers
Wait what? where?
Wait, I’m stupid, If I redeem the new founders pack on the same char I get banned?
