With just a week to go before World of Warcraft officially goes live, Blizzard Entertainment has voiced their concerns about the overpopulation of servers, specifically the Herod PvP server. “Based on name reservations so far, the Herod realm is looking to be massively overpopulated,” says Blizzard. “If all existing players on this server remain there, login queues in excess of [...]
