Lost Ark continues to receive great attention in western regions, especially Europe. The game, which set a record with 1.3 million simultaneous players 9 days ago, is constantly over 1 million simultaneous players per day. Of course, so many players bring with them queues.
Players, especially those who play on European servers, have to wait in long lines to get into the game. Amazon Games tried to reduce this congestion by opening a new region called Europe West last week, but that was precisely its warning: “this change will not help eliminate queues at the European Centre, but will reduce them.”
A new statement from Amazon suggests the move is the latest move by gamers on the server. The Lost Ark team says in an update message that there is nothing they can do for the European Central servers, which is because of the architecture of the game.
“The European Central region is operating at full capacity and there is unfortunately no way to increase the number of players in the European Central;
Since Lost Ark doesn’t fully support transfers between servers, things get even more complicated. This means that players can switch between servers within the European Centre, while they cannot switch to newly opened European Western servers. TrevzorFTW says “we will do our best until we exhaust all options”, but for the players in the European Centre, the situation does not look very bright.
If you’re planning to start Lost Ark, it might be wise to choose the European West region.
