Large raids = Mega serverside lag?

[Starfish]

Im playing Europeen Final Beta atm, looks really good ... going to play on some PvP Server when the game is released ... but in our Beta it is IMPOSSIBLE to raid cities like Crossroads or Auberdine, yesterday about 50-60 NE's gathered at Auberdine ... we killed everything in our way until we reached X-Roads ... as we charged into the city the server went crazy ... HUGE serverside lag (my comp is pretty good, no problem displaying all the players) but the server couldnt handle it ... its simply impossible to have large raids with ~50 ppl! this always happens when ppl try to raid, not only this time

well I am wondering, did you guys have the same problems during beta? and is it now possible to raid large cities without XTREME lag//server crashes? it's only a beta, I guess the retail servers here will be better but I am still worried =/

Yep as of right now large scale pvp is impossible, which is depressing

Everytime theirs a raid on SW or IF server crashes, bleh...

well that blows ... I've heard skullchrusher is pretty full ... but some guy on a german board claimed that 40 ppl raids on Elune are possible ... well lets hope they fix it once the battlegrounds arrive =/

raiding the auction house cities=****ing stupid lag suicide. if the lag+guards dont kill you, the 250 people in the auction house will.

the sound from standing in a fire is annoying when it never stops.

Standin in the fire also lags the auction house so some people cant use it. Thats only temporary, but it is annoying as hell.
