JINX  Silverlode queue has been minimal at best the few times I got in, I guess tonight will be a better test. Only 4 of 11 servers with a queue. |

I am wondering what is the subscriber count. With only ten or so servers how many people are actually playing?

I wasn't surprised at no extra servers on the first day to fill up the existing servers. Turbine knows approximately the number of boxes available to new customers including preorders and when they will enter the game. I also suspect we will see a few servers added today.
Turbine has done a great job on their patch system but I think the extra bandwidth and resources to have a dedicated patch system has added a bit of stress that hopefully they have corrected today. There must have been a lot of people patching their disk up to the current game state.
All in all, it was a great launch so far. I saw no noticeable difference playing last night compared to before the retail launch. The latency reported by the network icon was the same as normal and all my actions were timely with no extra delays.
I have no idea of the number of subscribers but I didn't really notice a great increase in population. Maybe I was in the wrong place by not being in the newbie areas.
There was an increase of people though so I kind of think the extra info the game sends with that increase may have effected some people. Lighting and character details may be easily turned down and hopefully adjusting these helps whoever is having problems.
