Information about server capacity needed.

How will the AOC server architecture handle the masses that want to play on a popular server? is a solution in place to increase the capacity? Will the servers have layers?
I'm asking because atm I'm playing WOW classic and anno 2022 blizzard still has not yet found a solution to increase the server capacity on the wow classic realms. Personally I find it very unlikely that there is no solution to the server capacity anno 2022 and was wondering how Intrepid will approach this on their end.

more people always play on release than in alphas or betas .-.

Only if they like the game.
Some will get invested into their dreams and be unhappy with choices and balancing made during alpha.

Not 10k -15K...... let alone 50K that has been mentioned befor.

Personally I want to pay for my subscription and play to my hearts content.

I think you're misunderstanding the numbers.

The 8-10k players is concurrent online players per server at launch. The 10-15k is initial character ID's stored on servers at launch with a plan to enlarge this over time after launch to 50k characters.

Intrepid isn't making megaservers. There's not going to be 500k people on a server anywhere. There's going to be (these numbers are arbitrary) 20 servers in US, 20 in EU, 10 In SEA and let's say 5 for OCE. All doing their own thing.

If you preordered above voyager plus lucky you because you'll get to reserve your name on 1 server which essentially reserves you a slot on the server.

But they haven't been shy saying they're looking at options for people during launch and evaluating if they need more servers, they've also said people should expect queues.

If people want to play with friends then they should get used to waiting. If you dont want a queue during launch then join the kickstarter headstart server "everyone" is apparently wanting to avoid.

For a game with no teleporting and a large map, server capacity is a concern of mine. No idea what number will be required, but it’ll take a lot of people per server for the game to play well.
