StephenReid Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 The following is a brief statement from Jeff Hickman, Executive Producer, Live Services: "We know there have been questions about the queues on the servers, so we wanted to take a moment to give you some insight. In order to ensure that the service would be smooth and stable, we staged how we brought people into the Early Game Access program, adding people in waves. As you know, there are a lot of folks who want to play the game right now and we want to make sure they have lots of people to play with. Balancing this with figuring out when to bring new servers online to help alleviate the size of the queues is part art and part science. On one hand, you do not want people to wait too long – on the other hand, you want to make sure that people have a dynamic, engaging community to play with for long after launch. Either way, we have one clear objective – to make sure folks have fun. While we can’t promise that there won’t ever be queues, we can promise you that we are taking this matter seriously and constantly reviewing them to make sure that they are manageable and reasonable."

razorpt Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 I know that those queues are annoying and i'm pissed at that cause my internet provider isnt stable and i get dc from time to time, and when i log back in, i get a 500 people queue.... But the game is awesome and i'm sure BW will do something about that problem. Just wait, after all its only pre-release, we'll see how it goes until the end of the month.This game have great potential and could be one of the best mmo ever if BW dosnt screw it up.With that said, i'll go back to my 358 people queue lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elysios Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Didn't get to play yesterday because of the queue on Bloodworthy (EU), and right now I've been waiting 3 hours in the queue and still 647 people in front of me... And I don't want to start over, because my character is already lvl 23. Please free server transfers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexanderB Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Position 531 in Queue. Waited 4+ hours. Good thing I didn't have to enter CC details, but a shame I used my CE code when I could have sold it instead. This thread has exceeded our post threshold. We've recreated it!

Bartes Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 I am starting to believe that I should be doing like others who use some kind of macros to stay logged (noticed many running in circles recently?) I logged off at 2pm and immediately started queue again to be able to play a bit in the evening but still have 1100 ppl ahead of me at 7.40pm! I assume it is like 3-4 hours of waiting more darn.

indelible Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 "This thread was started ON A WEEKEND. Anyone that knows corporate structure KNOWS you're not going to see anything done on a weekend. They'll fix it when they can, but they're NOT going to break out and fix it over the weekend. No way, no how." Actually it was started Wednesday. It has been split twice now do to growing to large and once to turn it into a sticky. I'd also just like to point out that he is wrong about the team working over the weekend. They will, and are, working over the weekend and they will fix the issue (or at least have Hickman wonder around with a blindfold and a screwdrive for half an hour, until he finally graces us with his presence to tell us that the server queues are in place to remind us how utterly amazing kumquats are... and then he'll make a quip about how he's not Mark Jacobs, and then he'll have a nervous breakdown) over the weekend.

cozzyb Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Legion of Lettow 3 hours queue, literally will do this tonight, and then I will just play at off peak times until launch as this is insane, lets hope servers are being ran under capacity to try them, or maybe they can move an extra shard and have two per server etc, as its needed.

Caldritch Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 To all the people who whine about queues but have bad internetconnections and disconnect: Plz stop with the damn whining, if you stand in line at the store and you leave to get more groceries and it takes time for you to come back, the people behind you wont stand there and wait.. the show must go on and so must the Queue.. so QQ and get back in line.. Have a good queuetime.. ive been waiting since 14:30 and seriously.. i have gotten so many things done IRL while waiting, i visited my brother, i did the dishes, i cooked dinner for me and my GF, and right now im about nr 235 in Queue.. so now im going to sit in the couch with my GF and watch a movie untill i get in Merry Christmas to all!

Boneslark Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 just add a free character transfer option like Trion did on RIFT , so everybody would change server with their friends/guilds to another server = server population balances itself automatically..

Iselix Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 (edited) I managed to watch .. Liverpool vs Aston Villa Tottenham vs Sunderland Man City vs Arsenal I've had breakfast I've had lunchI'm about to have dinner. I've cleaned my place up, i've stroked my cat. I've also waited in a que all day. I have not been able to get in the game "in any way shape or form" It better be instant access on the 20th! I know im not a paying customer ATM, this is just a freebie-sweetner .. Still!
