That's right, there'll be population caps for both order and destruction on each server. This is a very good decision imho |

Yeah just saw that one yesterday. Important how he said, "We don't want to punish the other side just because they have more people." |

Could see that screwing up quite a lot of people. Considering that the most have on beforehand picked what they want to be (Destruction/Order and probably Career too) and then they pick the server their friends play on, only to see that they can't play as - for instance - Destruction because there are too few on Order. |

i see that screwing up...... a very small minority of people.... for the benefit of balanced servers.
No brainer that this is an excellent move on part of Mythic. |

This. I imagine they will use a queue system. Nothing wrong with that, IMO, and it doesn't make it so friends may not be able to play the same faction. |

Solution: Play different chars on different servers. During the CB i had two chars on two different servers, when one server goes down, i hop on the other and both chars got equal loving due to that. |
