might be unpopular to some but here's the idea

when the steam release happens I think the subscriber should have priority in the queue
people that have a verified account second free to play they will have to wait behind everyone else
if the server gets overloaded and I don't think releasing a second server would ever be a good idea what I recommend doing is using the funds you earn to soup up one server it's capacity to the Limit and never rent servers from other people you should always own your servers

if you can make everybody spawn in one area it's possible for you to pick the spawning location for people when things get too populated what I recommend doing is expanding the world and adding more Hardware and move the spawning location to that area and still have the 6 month server plan I think two servers won't be a bad idea but at the beginning I think there should be one server like you're planning just upgrade it then later use the money you saved up in that time to make another world and server with similar capacity

Souping up a single server isn't something you can do in hindsight. It takes a lot of time.
Early world exploit: Put your hearthfire inside a cave, then hold shift to position a claim right in front of a cave. After 8 hours the claim will be unbreakable. Since your hearthfire is inside the cave, you can still get back inside, and leave, but nobody will be able to enter, effectively making you unraidable for the first 3-7 days. Enjoy

a single server can only be increased so much. all major webhosting that handles large amounts of traffic are done across a distributed network of servers at this point, because it is the only efficient means of scaling up the capacity of a host after a certain point.

another idea I was thinking about is dimensional Gates were people connect Between Worlds they still have one login and connect to One World technically but they can walk through a dimensional gate and go to another world which is attached that's one way to prevent people from being separated it would be similar to loading a new Zone that will work a lot like cave tunnels and mine holes except for you to go to a different Overworld which has its own separate layers

having multiple small worlds with dimensional Gates where people could travel in between would make a larger world and also spread out the leg and shit onto sectors of the server might be easier to manage
