Lopys Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Are they actually going to sort this out or is it just going to be constant posts and complaints and not any problems or issues resolved? post & complains it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordDart Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Reroll when a new server pops up. The answer is simple. Someone also said free character transfers.... Why would they do this for a game that hasn't even launched yet? Just reroll your level 20 toon isn't worth diddly in the grand scheme of things. I rerolled when I had a level 25 Bounty Hunter it's really not that hard... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatalfreak Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 I'm playing on the EU server The Red Eclipse, well, im supposed to be playing there cause theres a >1h queue; this is just unacceptable, Bioware, seriously, you must fix this, I've just bought the game (50 bucks) and i won't like to spend my free month on a queue. I heard there's going to be server maintenance Dec 19th so i hope they fix this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hexylol Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 I read that Bioware is going to reduce the max player limit on all of the servers due to lag issues on the 19th. This doesn't look good lol... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im lvl35 so i dont wana start at some new server and there r no transfers either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soralina Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 I've been waiting two hours in and when I get in, I get an error the game, I pull the server and now I've been waiting for 4 hours. not just, when the start date will happen?

shama Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 its a fact the servers a capped. Most reasonable explanation: capped until 20th for game launch Then they are bigger idiots than I thought. Hours of queueing simply to allow more players in at launch? Just shut the frigging server off to new players if you want to preserve space on it, don't penalise the people already on it! Jeezus, way to shoot yourself in the foot with the eager and keen pre-order players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GregoriusMaximus Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Only one English EU RPPvP server, Lord Calypho... and it's got queues. Doesn't even feel that full, surely the cap can be put higher than this?

I rerolled when I had a level 25 Bounty Hunter it's really not that hard... And then what, when that server develops large queues because BW are putting too many players in it? Roll again on a new server I guess ... How many times will you be prepared to do this? I suppose in a month when the subscription numbers drop you can go back to your earlier characters as the server population will be lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bacardio Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Guys it needs to be done to balance the servers. If you arent playing with a guild of friends on a highly populated server and cant deal with server queues the reccomended course of action is to leave the server. Things will get better in time when everyones not in a frenzy to play and people start to pay. Queues are necessary, and throttling is necessary in the pre-launch and launch weeks for very obvious reasons. Welcome to the launch of a MMORPG.

AndyOther Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 I know my post here is not gonna make any difference but anyway.... Congratulations everyone developing SWTOR for turning something that could've been awsome into a complete disaster ! My personal experience: - I preordered the game 2 months ago, collector's edition which is not something CHEAP, specially for a university student. But the game seemed really interesting (and the game itself I still think it is) and I thought I could put aside some money for it... (remember we're gonna pay monthly fees right?) - Along with my guild, we waited anxiously for the early access period to start, we played betas, etc... and we were assigned to Tomb of Freedon Nadd server when early access started... Guess what? It's IMPOSSIBLE TO PLAY !!!! Yesterday I played totally 3 hours when I had decided I was gonna take the day to enjoy the game and use this early access period. Why? Cause you guys can't handle the damn queues! And you seem more interested on adding servers rather than finding a solution for these queues !!! For f*** sake, at least give players a free transfer so the servers get more balanced !!! We can't even move our characters right now, and there's people already on level 30+ that don't want to start over !!! What do you have to loose? You guys haven't started receiving the monthly fees yet, and I'm pretty sure A LOT of people are already wondering if they're gonna buy the game for real or not... So far I've spent 5€ on this... I planned on spending more but why the hell should I if I can't use the free time i've got to play ?! Not everyone here is a hardcore player that logs on for 12 hours a day ! Some of us like to sit down for 30mins and play a little every day... gues what, we CAN'T ! Cause 30 mins is not even half of the time we have to wait for the queue to finish !!!! This is frustrating for people who were waiting for months for this game to come out, people who didn't spend money on other mmorpgs cause they were gonna play this one, people who relied on you guys to give us a good product in exchange of our money... This might be an online game but it's still a PRODUCT like any other and when we buy something from a store that is not working as it should, things are SOLVED. I payed 5€ for early access, that was your price. I'm not getting it. And I don't see any reason why I should wait "until things settle" like many people say so. Do something or i'm pretty sure you'll loose A LOT of clients. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ssgrif Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 im hoping that the queues are a result of BW putting a limit (lower than what they will ultimately be) on the total players online on a given server. so today during EGA the limit per server might be 10,000 but after day 1 release, its 12,000 and after 5 days its 20,000 per server. that would solve the issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eggowaffles Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 I payed 5€ for early access, that was your price. Wrong, in so many ways. That came off your total. You did not "pay" for EA, you put down a deposit to pre-order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
