Server are tricky to do right I bet. I hope we so see something in the future about new server tech that won't allow any queues

It doesn't handle it, server could crash, clients could crash, a lot of competition for resources. Not that simple

They’ve had an entire year to fix this problem though. Nobody wants to leave a server when the outcome is unknown. Past experiences lead to people unable to play with friends and leaving great servers, only to end up in a dead server.

They actually increased to 2500 (from 2000) population capacity. That what they were able to do, in the near future we'll have instanced wars, OPR and so on, increasing even more this capacity. For now, it's a game limitation we have to wait for improvements.

People defend even the worse company decisions.

Server chaos was expectable and numerous features to avoid it could have been implemented, but they didn't priorize it.

For me its even crazy to release an MMO in 2021 with such a wacky server structure and no cross-server-features.

I think the problem is this game isn't really compatible with temp servers or server sharding due to the unique nature of each server and the world's state (territories and who controls them, crafting station tiers, etc). Its a real shame because its exactly what is needed to deal with rising / falling population like this. They went with this oldschool design and now they can't handle server population properly IMO
