New Progression Server confirmed

Also they announced more instanced zones starting tomorrow.

They are doing as little as possible to maximize profits. Pathetic.

And a new server maybe?

Update: Ragefire, hopefully, tomorrow we'll launch instancing of busy non-start zones. Fix for /pick when instances over 9 too.

@TheWindstalker so no chance of new server?

Holly Longdale ?@TheWindstalker 21m21 minutes ago
@skillotine We'll be posting something on it shortly. As in, today.

@skillotine Er, I mean, we'll have an update, not a new server. :/ Summary is we are working towards it.

Go reply on twitter!

We are discussing second server. Question is, would you play there? Feels like Ragefire folks want to stay on Ragefire? Thoughts peeples?

There's a bunch of noisy idiots that keep saying no to it.

Well, we already know they won't merge them, ever, so after year 2 it'll be one normal server and one dead server that you'll have to beg for six months to get moved off of.

I think they fired the guy that knows how merge servers years ago.

I pretty sure progressing the server past PoP is what kills the population / interest. If they stoppeded at SoV or PoP, I am sure it would be a fairly consistent server for quite the forseeable future. (See P99 Kunark longevity)

The did "voluntary merges" on Vulak - 0 cost transfer tokens in marketplace for a while or some such.

"Update: Ragefire, hopefully, tomorrow we'll launch instancing of busy non-start zones. Fix for /pick when instances over 9 too."

Because apparently what they did to instance the starter zones has been forgotten, and they need to rtfm all over again.

I'll be the first to say...LvL 50's with heroic gear will appear tomorrow in the new instances.

"If it isn't broken, don't fix it" seems to be their new motto.

If the SWTOR expansion release has taught us anything it's that everyone goes home for the holidays and there are zero fucks until after.

I really feel if they were going to launch another server it should have been before the holiday weekend.
