World of Warcraft - New European Realms

[afraser2k]

Just noticed on the WoW Europe site that they're opening five new servers today due to the number of players, hopefully sorting out some of the latency problems at the same time.

The English realms that will be opened on Wednesday are Scarshield Legion (RP PvP) and Xavius (PvP).

Is anyone planning to start new characters on these realms?

There's also major latency problems for European customers at the moment, rumoured to be the data centre and Blizzard are hoping the new servers can help sort the problem (although some suspect the 1.9 patch). I know that some players do not like long waiting queues so I expect the new servers will please them, even if it means starting fresh.

Personally I've joined the RP-PvP server and unfortunately NTL decided to do maintenance this week so I kept getting disconnected and loss of service.

I've only re-subscribed until 14th Feb as I was very bored so I'll see what happens at the end of the week.
