Ok, so technically even with "overflow servers" there is a finite number of connections possible ie: The 'overflow servers' can "fill". Therefore it is possible to have ques is it not? |

I guess that's the reason why they reduced the number of server and increased the number of players per server

Originally posted by Nitth It's doubtful they can even fill given that they are capping home server populations. SWTOR is the greatest mmo ever! |

Originally posted by Honner I do, but I'm not telling! This may be why ANet could open the servers up prior to 00:00 PST on the 25th. https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/the-final-countdown-guild-wars-2-launch-times/ To start the spreading out of peoples I assume they will be open at least three hours early, at least I hope so. Dear developers, In my humble and inexperienced opinion if I can get through all the content you spent the last 5+ years working on within 6 months you have not done your work justice. Please give me, and everyone else, some tools to create our own content from what you have made so I can stay in your world and appreciate it longer than three weeks before I say "meh". It's a shame and I'd rather not do that to something you put so much of yourself in to. |

Overflow servers kick ass. You meet all sorts of people on them hehe
Only thing that might be a problem is joining WvWvW if it's really crowded. I assume they'll raise the caps for that on release but by how much, who knows.
Course you can queue for that too so you can go do some hot join pvp while you wait or something ;)
In the meantime, overflow servers can handle the short term "can't play cuz I'm in a 2 hour queue" thing. At least they can adjust based on data they see from that and slowly add 1 new server if needed...then one more etc. Or maybe not at all depending on what it looks like.

Login queues are most often created artificially and on purpose by the developers. They're giving players the feeilng of beeing part of something huge. Imagine there beeing server queues on the launch of SWTOR but not on GW2. Players would assume, that this would be the case, because SWTOR would have far more players at launch. Since this is not the way the developers like the players to think, they create server queues. Let's play Fallen Earth (blind, 265 episodes) Let's play Guild Wars 2 (blind, 45 episodes) |

My only concern is that far shiverpeaks probably gets full at 25th where I'm gonna play, but I fear that my mates might not be able to join August 28 due to server full

During beta weekends, servers often were full at prime time but not at very early mornings our late nights. So you can advice your friends to try create their characters on the server during quiet hours.

Originally posted by Aerowyn Well, it kinda does since there will be WvWvW overflow servers as well, so you can either wait or play with random people from other servers. Not perfect but still beats being forced to wait, and even people deciding to wait should have shorter waiting since some people will prefer to just play right now. |

i'm gonna take a guess that overflow servers work just like GW1's "districts". when a district, or in this case, overflow server, gets filled, another is created to put more people in them. the game being built up on a modified engine GW1 uses, i think there's a good chance they work the same way.
