Friends are all on a Full-server... What should I do?

I bought the game to play with my old friends from Star Wars Galaxies, however; the server they are on is currently full.
At first - I figured this might be, because it is launch.
So I woke up a few hours later to find the server is still full.

So does that mean it's permanently full and I won't be able to join my friends?
If that's the case - That's a major bummer, because it'll be tough to convince them to re-roll all their work just to play with me somewhere else.


Thanks for the help.

It appears to be working as intended, and whoever had this idea, has officially trumped my list as worst ideas I've ever seen in a MMO.

They're offering free transfers for those who don't like a queue. There is no reason to further cater to them by stopping friends and guilds from playing with each other.

Simple. You play on another server and then transfer after a couple of months.

The restriction will not be there forever, it is just temporary. So the sky is, in fact, NOT falling.

Ugh...
I don't know how people wouldn't expect a queue for launch-day, but that's pretty surprising they're handing em' out like that.
Can you transfer infinite times or something?

Also - If this is really working as intended. I'm shocked.
So the system is basically considering everyone's alts as actual players? Even when they're logged off?

The server should allow new people to roll on it a few days after launch from whats been said. But TBH why won't your friends just server transfer to Feral Valley? Unless they are part of one of the Zerg guilds they can just transfer and bring all their equip with them; its not like anyone has a long established reputation on any server. If they refuse then maybe your better off making new ones on a different server?

I understand - There's just a group of 20~ people I've been playing with for years and it seems a bit illogical for me to not even have a chance to play with them.
I'd rather not play solo somewhere else and talk to them on Teamspeak - While they're having a bunch of fun elsewhere, without me.

Considering MMOs are community-based games. I fail to see this decision as positive by EnMasse.

If they were your REAL friends they could transfer...it takes all of a few hours to reach 20 again.

I see it as immensely positive....

Are you kidding me

A) roll on the new server you won't get 2 hour waits like your friends have.

B) Allowing more people on a full server means more ques for the people already on that server. Why should we be forced to have even longer ques because you were late to the game.

C) Force your 20+ friends to go to the new server so the people on the full server will have lesser ques.

D) Whine cry moan cry whine no one cares.

A) There are no waits, anymore. They removed Queues, which is why it's permanently full.

B) That's a bit selfish, considering I don't have a debt card to purchase the game through the internet. Nor did I have any stores, which offered the pre-Order bonus. I was only able to buy Tera from Walmart at 12:01AM May 1st. I'd say starting to play on Launch-Day is hardly late to the game.

C) Doesn't seem feasible to convince everyone in the guild to move to a different server - When they've already established friends outside the guild for an minority group. I wouldn't.

D) Okay, Mr. Trollinski. Perhaps your opinion wouldn't be so passively-aggressive into your own favor - Had you be walking in my shoes.
