:/

Dev said they want spread more ppl cuz server need to be improved before be able to substain massive inc.

Also we are alredy 400 and server lag (now should be better) but when more zones will open , we will became for sure 600+......
So i dont get all this fear of no enough population.
Devs said the server lag isn't because of too many players on at once, but something to do w/ how the server is handling region updates I think?

One of my friends hosts servers in the EU, I will get him to message the devs and see if he can help. We currently works from home and does this for a living (server hosting). Or so he told me . .

A region update entails updating all the individual objects in that region, and there are of course costs which scale both linearly and quadratically as more players come into the region.

instead of wasting dev time on workarounds. Lets let them fix it the right way.
