Queues


Bad start. Most will have seen the queues now common for most servers and this all before its released.

They know about it but what they plan to do about it I dont know.

If I get another queue I wont wait, Ill go to a free server and just make chars I havent tried yet to see their starting story.

Hope this gets fixed soon - Im not going to pay to wait! :)

45min to an hour wait is pretty ridiculous, and I don't think I've even tried logging in at peak hour yet.... hopefully they find a work around or something by official launch

This is usual on anticipated mmorpg launches, happened in wow, happened in rift, headstart is often used to calculate server demand...

Curiously, I did not suffer it either in lotro or city of heroes

The issue if they will be able to fix it for launch, they have 1 week then to fix it before people decides to look elsewhere...

Today's queue was MUCH shorter. Yesterday it was about 800-900 and today it's around 200.

*Side Note* My copy of the game and security key arrived today! biggrin

I noticed a much shorter queue today also. Plus for general release they are releasing new servers.

Yeah, I just saw that announcement on their Facebook page.

Should make it much easier for us to get in to play!

The time i logged in i had a que of 200. Which was estimated at 25mins, i waited that time but i wont do that again. Maybe im spoiled but i dont want any que :P. Im used to click and play :D

i can (nearly) download the entire game in 25mins!

Same... stuck in the queue right now at 1000+ / over 1 hour.

Seems people are rolling new chars on the full servers rather than the new empty ones they put up specific for today's launch. Too many people telling their friends "I'm on this server!".

I agree that there should be no queues. There was a significant reduction in wait time on Moday though, and it is only a few days old so everyone is trying to get on.

I will forgive it the waits for the time being because when Im in I love it. The stories are hooking me right in - typical BW right there.

my queue is much shorter today, almost by half, i think i read somewhere that there were ppl playing on the early access who had pre-ordered and then cancelled? so those should have vanished from the game after this 2 day grace period after the offical launch?

Yeah, heard the same thing about canceled pre's playing because it was "Free" for them till the grace period ends.
