Hey there, just wondering if there is any mean to know some stats about each realm.

Like average number of players, maximum number of players, percentage of Horde/Alliance, queues time, those kinds of thing.

Blizzard was already really secretive before launch, refusing to tell us anything of the sort.

On Firemaw the queues were about 25k last night. But nobody knows how many players actually fit on a server. We'll have to wait for data from Blizzard on player population.

Yeah that's the issue, the thing is I believe players are afraid to change realms because they don't know what to expect, and the layering doesn't help, you just don't know the state your server is in.

Yeah so far I don't think Blizzard has published anything and the only numbers are guesses from people watching from the outside of Blizzard.

There are some reddit surveys, but that's about the closest thing I know of. And the only ones I saw were from days ago before blizzard basically doubled the amount of servers today so they're not going to be accurate either.

I saw the reddit surveys too but with the afflux of player on release can really mess up with the stats even without the new servers, now that's even worse haha.

I couldn't get into fairbanks for most of the day so I was trying out one of the new servers while I waited for the crowd to die down. Rattlegore wasn't even slammed full of people like the other servers and the boats weren't working there either.

I think all the panic servers they spooled up didnt start properly, the cities were horrible as well.

do you plan on continuing on one of the other servers and transferring later, or you just going to go back to fairbanks?

I just wanted in yesterday and was getting frustrated with login queues. I eventually did get in at Fairbanks around midnight and got a couple of hours in. I plan to remain on Fairbanks unless these massive 6+ hour queues remain after a few weeks. I already have a guild lined up over at Fairbanks and want to roll with those guys so I'm not leaving the server unless I absolutely have to.

number of players should be "easy" to find out. I am not sure about anything else.

Well, not that much. You can guess thanks to the queue that there are 20 000 people trying to play, but Blizzard refused to tell us the server cap and the layers cap.
