This is what happens when you sell 1.5million preorders. playing: Dragon Age |

So, what is your suggested fix? Let the ratio be 20000 to 1 Chaos vs. Order? Hard to have any remotely balanced RvR, if most everyone is in one Realm. |

After this initial success (sales wise). They should have plenty of funding to open up more servers. I know people dont like to wait but before you open up more servers you need to know you're getting enough players. |

Technically this isn't the launch. This is the "Headstart" timeframe. Mythic has already stated they are going to look at the population trends, adjusting population caps, and roll out more servers as needed. I'm actually glad they are doing the headstart to make the actual launch smooth. I would really hate to see these issues being resolved on September 18th. Frankly it's nice to see they've learned from the mistakes of earlier MMOs, and are taking appropriate steps. |

Nice ... Makes me feel good that I'm rolling Order
Funny thing is -- when you read the warhammer books... The order is overwhelmed by the huge masses of Chaos.. Even in the books Chaos has the most people.. hehehehe |

They are opening up many more servers when the standard preorders get in, and I'm fairly sure they have plans to add as needed after the official release. |

Gotta say if the biggest issue so far with the game is that to many people are enjoying it, the game must be pretty damn good. I believe WOW had this same problem, not enough servers for the demand, but they fixed it pretty quick, so I think give it a bit after the retail launch and most of the servers will be more accessible as the population evens out over all the servers, or maybe they will increase the server capacity. |

From what I understand they have a lot of servers waiting to be opened, guess they are trying to learn from WoWs launch and have backup for the large influx of people. I imagine that tomorrow we will see the opening of a lot more servers, and even more come thursday. For now we will just have to deal I guess. ---------------------------------------------------------------- |

On my OB server (Ekrund) we (Order) seemed out numbered pretty bad, but our group rarely lost scenarios and took RvR points daily with little resistance. The Destro players that i have seen are either really good, or really bad/unorganized. Skill > Population |

Its likely to get worse before it ets better. I expected destruction to outnumber order 3:2 if not 2:1 at the outset. However I expect the numbers to even out, but I expect it to take several months. |

If everyone on a server is Destruction, who are you gonna fight? Your self? You have no idea how boring it is to have nobody to fight. |

acutally i dont have a fix.....i just find it crappy if you want to play for a quick hour its almost impossible unless you plan in advance. Not to mention CTD have increased dramatcally....so once youre logged in youre not safe...you could easily crash within 10 minutes and find yourself waiting another 1 hour to play.

Ya but they cant just keep opening up new servers to handle everyone who wants to play destruction. The game will be pointless if every server has chaos maxed out and order has no one. The game would not be fun at all unless you are just a loot whore and dont care about actually having good gameplay. It seems to me they already need to start announcing that they are gonna give order exp bonus and whatever else they said they were gonna do to try to balance things out more. |

...Actually... if there was a system that rewarded people for rolling the low side ( xp bonus, loot bonus, something small )... it would work out pretty well.. |
