Amount of inventory space and Armory Chest space they are giving is pretty small for a "huge" data transfer to another place.
I am just taking a grain of salt from this news.
They specifically said in a live letter that the inventory increases we're getting will be scaled based on 4.0 launch performance and stability. It's not a whole lot now, but they plan on increasing it as long as the server strain isn't too bad.
But among other things, moving data centers is a HUGE undertaking. I'm not sure how many people actually understand the scope of this. It's not as simple as a drag and drop of some files. Or just physically moving some servers. The way I see it, they have the ability to expand, which is critical for a game like this.
Some people might remember that when 2.0 launched, they had to do a ton of server architecture adjustments. And then they had to do the same in 3.0. And during all of that, they were also buying additional servers to run this game. Part of the reason their moving is that their current datacenter was full. So full they couldn't let the machines max out because of electrical strain.
To the regular player, they might not even notice what under the hood changes have taken place. But that's also pretty important itself.
I get the fact stability is important, such as how HW launch ended up having multiple channels to allow people to get through Central Coerthas Highlands.Â
It's just kind of a questionable matter to me for other matters. Since those limitations has caused enough trouble for myself since I am actually running out of space and such.
They did mention via live letter that they are adding couple of spaces first, which I am happy to hear. But I did hope that they'd give a bit more than that for first phase.
