Nope, a cue will fix the problem.....just slowly pack more people into the full server. It's really a shame we have no way of clearly knowing how many people are stuck trying to get in during peak evening hours
combine opening ended up with another server right ? fippy opening had another as well. both those servers were tlp. both had a huge player base as well
Opening day of Fippy I was at work, by the time I got home Fippy was completely full and they had opened Vulak. I hopped on Vulak and played for like 2.5 years. That server had a good population on it for 1-2 years. It's not like they wouldn't have time to plan ahead for a merge if that was the concern with this round of TLPs
You all had a large portion of your population begging for a merge for years and it never happened. I have no idea why people think it would be any different this time around. Sony/Daybreak hasn't done a server merge in >5 years now. I doubt anyone on staff even knows how any more.
This part just isn't true. Neither Sleeper nor Vulak ever had a huge player base. Adequate, yes, for a short while in both cases, but nowhere near the population of Combine or Fippy.
