Hey all - here are your launch PlanetSide 2 servers.

US West:
Connery
Genudine

US East:
Mattherson
Waterson

EU:
Woodman
Miller

Australia:
Briggs

I'm curious to see where everyone is taking their Outfits, I don't know if it's better to follow the zerg or avoid it. I just don't want to end up on a 14% population TR server, that shit was awful a couple months ago. I want to see which way the wind blows.

The "zerg" are the other players, I don't think you can avoid them

As far as the server pops go...I think they will be fine as there as been so much hype for this game there are gonna be alot of people that play it so the pop shouldnt be very much of a problem. What does need to have though, is the vets and experienced people need to educate the newer players..(if they ask for help) and try and point them in the right direction.

I meant "zerg" Outfits. Outfits that by themselves, can imbalance the population of a server. We saw a lot of that before the beta servers were consolidated into Thebe, some were constantly 80% TR and others had 18% TR.

it wasn't a complaint, it was a statement of fact, never has an MMO been released with worse server names.

I hope they have some more servers ready I would imagine with just having 2 EU servers they will fill up instantly. If its 2000 per map and 3 maps that's about 6000 people per server roughly so about 12,000 slots for EU folk that will be filled instantly especially with it being on steam.

I really hope they do not underestimate how many people will play this on launch, will be horrible to see it have a standard mmo servers melting launch.

^ although true I would rather have them have the current amount of servers than too many. they can always add more if need be. if they have too many at launch then cutting servers is more complicated than adding a couple more.

All I wanted was my Emerald. Oh well. If I pretend Connery is Sean it won't be too bad..
EDIT: Nevermind, got a shitty name like Mattherson.

I've been reading around and it seems to be Miller that's chosen.

Marked thread as news.

I can understand them trying to link the back story into the game a bit more but this is just silly. Every round of beta names were 100 time better than these, or better yet they should just have a throwback into original PS1 names...
