It’s “full” because the server has reached it’s peaked limit of concurrent users… you probably keep wanting to play during a primetime of that server (based on time zone). Keep trying.

Is noon ET prime time for Dragonbrand in the US? Aren’t most people at school or work?

Is the only option between 2-6am ET?

Yep. My friends that transferred had to wait till between 3-5am to get on. DB seems to have a really large east coast population. So he can wait, or he can give you his info since you are on late anyways and see if you can get him logged on.

Another solution is to just roll and character, pick a server, and ninja transfer directly after an update when everyone is downloading and rebooting. With the event coming im sure there will be lots of chances.

Or you could transfer, or he could transfer, or you could tough it out and just play dungeons together and chat (since that works cross server) until guesting gets going.

There are plenty of options. More options than most other MMOs where if your friends were on a different full server then you were just totally kitten out of luck.

OK, thank you. That is very helpful. On the world selection screen it specifically says that once I choose a server, I will need to pay in order to switch. So I’ve been holding off on playing the game until I could get into the server that my friends are on.

But I guess that the free server transfers are still in effect and aren’t planned to end anytime soon?

Trying To Play With My Friend - Server Full

I’ve got the same issue. I just bought the game to play with friends on Dragonbrand. But it’s been 2 days now that I’ve been checking and it’s always full. I’ve checked at night and during the middle of the day (noon-2pm). I guess that the only option is to pull an all nighter staring at the world selection screen and hoping that it drops to High long enough for you to get it?

That’s pretty ridiculous.

I’m trying to join the game but my friend’s server is constantly ‘full’ for 2 days now. So I’ve owned the game for 2 days, but haven’t even been able to create a character. What is the solution to this?

I bought this game to play with my friends, not to play alone on a different server.
