It lags almost all day now, between 12-13 and 17-18 server time there are over 9-10k players making this server a pain to play especially in pvp .
Battleground were always a pb on this server, and the amount of new players that don't speak english and generally just come to leech is incredibly frustrating . There are exceptions that do play and communicate but the vast majority doesn't do either. Its av weekend and more than half of my ally bg are chinese players that just turtle in base, farm stuff or just leech , only thing you can do is hope the horde will finish it fast . Try to play AB? 3 guys defending mine and it gets capped without a call ? guess what, chinese players that cant communicate for help or just afk and the examples can go on and on.
I've played on this server with 5-6k online and works amazing, after 7k it starts to lag a bit, and at over 9k you can see the wheels turning.
I know its not an easy solution to this problem but the amount of players on this server will just keep on growing , and something needs to be done . An idea would be to make a new server that its a copy of this one and designate one that is for english and one that is for chinese players.
Other solutions could be better, the admins have the statistics of what is exactly happening with the server and where are all these new players coming from but i don't think this could be fixed just with improving the code.
