I agree with ket. I'm on the fence about waking up at 2 am, only to have server issues. I may give it a few hours, and just wake up at 5 am, instead.

You can create the same character with the same name on our server Talisin, it won't be an issue.

Yeah we are kinda lucky on the west coast because by the time we get on, it will have been live for 4+ hours. There is 0% chance i'm waking up at 2. I'll instead get up at like 6-7 and stay up playing till 2AM Saturday night!

Theres also the chance of 5a-8a being the only low-populated and error-free hours. In beta 4 no one got glitched til servers got fuller.

Pretty certain you can make the same name on multiple servers.

[NA] Procedures during Periods of High Congestion (Aug. 21)
We are expecting major congestion during the period starting with the Early Access on Aug. 24, 2013 at 2:00 a.m. (PDT) leading up to the official game launch on Aug. 27, 2013 (PDT).

If a large volume of players attempt to login to the game simultaneously, certain players may receive the following message: “This World is currently full. Players in queue: ##.” If you receive this message, we ask that you please wait until your login is processed.

In addition, in order to avoid server congestion related issues from multiple characters concentrating in the starting areas, we may implement restrictions on logins and/or the creation of new characters for a period of time after the servers open to the public.

We apologize in advance for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your understanding.


meaning, wake your ass up at 5am Eastern and get on there before they lock you out.

it being 5am is a blessing. because most people will still be asleep.

I wouldn't be so sure about that, haha.

EDIT: Also, for those unaware, Hyperion is now one of the most heavily populated servers. We had a LOT of people transfer here.

I might have already posted this in another thread, but I don't care.

Like Ket said we unfortunately had a lot of people transfer to our server, and I read that Hyperion was having the worst problems with people creating new characters in Phase 4. Hopefully that is resolved by this weekend...but honestly it's not this big of a problem on every other server, so who knows if SE will even give a shit. They have enough other things to focus on.

If Trabia didn't merge with that other server in the past (I realize all legacy servers did this, but still), and Daeva of War didn't transfer, we would be in a much better place.
