New World Will Be Playable Only On PC For the Foreseeable Future | MMORPG.com
New World has been live for a day, and there's already feedback and requests for console and controller support. Yet, PC will remain the focus for now.

Today is not launch day. They knew the hype, they knew how many copies sold. Server population limit is 3000? If you see on every server has more queue than its full available population and you are the Amazon, I think not so hard to open tons of servers, increase limit just with 20-25%, etc. We talk about Amazon, not gameforge or gamigo. Again, today is not the launch day and they are still cannot control anything.
So your choice is wait in cue for overpopulated server or move to a server with no cues. Amazon is even letting you have free character transfers if you are so far already that it matters. I just wanted to let others know that it isn't bad at all if you don't have to play on an over populated server. There are plenty to choose from. All I had seen if people bitching about cues, but I see they are perhaps unwilling to use another server.
Dev said they will open transfer for free probably once everything is stable. Just play on low pop for now and then transfer in higher later.

El Dorado and Camelot on US West had 10k+ queues.. but at that point, players are at fault in my opinion. Why do you want to follow streamers to those particular servers is beyond me.
I queue up in the morning for 30-40 minutes and just stay logged in the whole day.
FFXIV had zero queues on launch day.

The server we are on now has zero queues and still feels plenty populated.

I was about to say this. With the issues plaguing PC performance, it was always kind of obvious it would never be developed for consoles... At least not for a loooong time.
yea, you gotta keep in mind, this is done by a minor company, who definately couldn't afford propper analytics of their player base OR servers just on a hinch. sorry, but that argument is old and outdated af, especially considering how much money they have, and how many servers they actually OWN THEMSELVES

This isn't a signature, you just think it is.

LOL yeah its the players fault for actually trying to play a game they paid for at launch. Blame the players for this good one.
If these servers were available at launch, then maybe you would have a point. But many people went to the lowest pop server available at the time, and moved entire guilds to that server. You cant just tell everyone to destroy their character and move somewhere else, its too hard to coordinate. IF server transfers was available day 1 maybe you would have a point. But since they are not, basically people are being punished for playing at launch additionally unless they destroy their company and character from the original server they are locked out of that also.
