I read a post a few days ago that they where lowering the population caps, and I think last night proved it. I have a screenshot at home of like 1/3rd of the servers for Destro on FULL with major queues.
Also, WTF happened to the capping population to help with imbalances? It seems that our server is constantly at Medium/High, and last night it was Medium/Full. Some times we are even Low/High, and that imbalance is really felt in RVR.
In a similar issue, my game crashed tonight (3rd time in under 3 hours!), but when I went to log back in after the last one it took me to the server selection screen and Ulthuan was shaded out. It also told me I had 0 characters there. Did this happen to anyone else?
Ulthuan was down intermittently tonight... I read that on IGN forums, so there's roughly a 47% chance it's true and an 87% chance it was posted by someone living in their mom's basement.
I was able to get back on after rebooting my PC, not sure if it was a local problem or a server problem. But I did crash three more times trying to get my ass out of Altdorf, mission: find a working renown vendor unsuccessful.
