A 2nd PVP realm?

[Benzi]

Ive read a lot of posts here that say the PvP realm is too overpopulated, adding to lag at times. And theres of course a percentage of players who are just finding out about Nostalrius who would have loved to have been starting with the fresh PvP server.

It seems like theres more than enough interest and a large enough amount of people who would go to a new PvP server if you opened one. Is that something that has been discussed or decided upon?

Certainly will not happen.

They need to do that because it's NEXT TO IMPOSSIBLE to get herbs on the main realm.

Lol, thats a little extreme dont you think? So at what amount of people on Nost PVP warrants a new server to you? A hundred thousand?

And Im glad to see the blizzlike "If you do that im quitting" players are here as well!!

The only legitimate repeat complaints here are hunters trying to complete a very specific class quest, tame rare beasts, and the node spawn rates.

Literally all of those things could be corrected without needing a second server.

Don't say that too loud around here! People will be screaming that this is a vanilla blizzlike server. Which is ironic since 8k people on a vanilla server is not blizzlike. That's why there are nod spawn problems. So I beg all those "if you have a problem with vanilla, don't play on a vanilla server"-people: Please realize that the server vill never be blizzlike when there are 8k people online on it. You are exacly the same as those people on the suggestion side that want to change a little on the vanilla experience out of convenience. The same people that you reply to about not being blizzlike.

(sorry, got carried away there...)

Anyways the second server helped the problem, but also made alot of new player come. I am not to say if there is need for a third server right now. It might also be to much for the crew to handle. But no doubt there will be need for one at some time.

I would enjoy a player cap instead with queue, having around 1k players afk in Capital city at peak hours with 8500 online makes the lag wonderful!

If the second PvE server (a PvE server!!) can manage to get 2500 people online constantly a second PvP server will surely have a higher population than that.
You do realize its almost 4 times as many players on this realm as it was on a retail realm, there isn't a chance a second PvP server will die out since this is pretty much the only choice in ways of a Vanilla realm.

What they need to do is open another PvP realm that is already at the same patch as the main one.
