Is it just my imagination, or are there far more games available on East than there were yesterday? Complete with two Mayhems.

Perhaps good things are happening after all? Maybe West will come back after a few days too.


Edit: It is, in fact, not my imagination. East servers are back online at full capacity and ready to roll. Let's hope for West and Australia next!

Not at home to check, but

a) Two Mayhems? That is inane. We can barely fill ONE in the entirety of NA and that's with heavy community organization.
2) More servers are good, in theory, but getting West back up and getting it through people's thick skulls that Central is a viable battleground is more important.
iii) TAW private server when. Look, just give us usc-tdm-1402. It's basically our practice server already.

Why that particular server?

Yeah, but dude, we are at 1750. As much as we would like to be Professional Yolodrivers like you [Meraple] and Lightangel112, we're not there yet. It's something to aspire to, sure, but there's a lot of ground to cover.

2 mayhem servers sounds like server migration issues to me, ie they took down the west servers but bringing them back up they are registering and queing up in the wrong field possibly?

Fred is sad hes not like the other robots

Exactly, this thread is nothing but a trolling attempt.

The number of total servers in all regions has not changed, it was 92 yesterday but before west disappeared it was 132.

Standing up for the OP.   He did not create a click bait post.  It was exactly like he described only 20 mins ago.  I got about 3 matches in and came out.

After reading SS396's post, I just checked and the extra servers are now gone.

Not sure whats going on here but the OP didn't make it up.

I guess the Strike Team is working behind the scenes.

This is what it is sounds like me, them working on the west servers but things getting brought back up in the wrong fields as I original said. The most likely scenario.

Odd, I checked a little while ago and it had indeed ballooned.  He was not trolling, I checked about 10 minutes after he posted.

I think they might have been afraid we'd have hope or something.

This. I was actually able to join a game through the server browser after getting home from class without having to wait ages for matchmaking. Felt SOOOO GOOD!

But that's dissappointing if the extra servers have disappeared again.

At least we know that SOMEONE is still working on it or it could be the RATS chewing on the cables....

It would have to be some pretty tech savvy rats to know which cables to chew in order to ADD servers. But it's plausible.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who saw it. I regret not taking a screenshot. It is indeed back to how it was before.

Thank you burnshot.
The idea of someone trolling this community after being basically abandoned angered me.

When I started playing 30 minutes ago and there were no new servers.

Now there are two mayhem servers and a fuzzy bunny-ton of others online.

HALLELUJAH.
