Server queues aren't dropping any faster for me.
Frankly, I do hope a solution comes around soon. I'm getting pretty fed up of having to log on and wait for up to an hour to play and I know I have it easy compared to some.
So far the queues have only got worse and worse for the server my characters are on. I got the game box in the post today, but I think I might wait until after Christmas to put the code in as hopefully the problem will be sorted by then.
