Regarding server queues


StephenReid

Recommended Posts

I'm impressed been queue's all day on nightmare lands, that have only been growing bigger. Congratulations BW now taking my money to sit in a queue.

 

Reroll on a different server i hear you say, well i don't fancy having to start again now i'm at lvl 31, and when i choose this server on day 2 i made sure i went into a low pop server.

 

Maybe just maybe if there was more servers at the start ( i'm sure you had some figure's on just the pre-orders) then there might have been a bit more flexability now launch day has come.

I'd bet not many of us.

 

The difference is we're not charging people for a product with flaws such as this that have been solved successfully many times over in the past decade of MMO development.

 

If it was an indie game, maybe I'd expect some serious bumps, but it really feels like there's just an onslaught of poor decisions and amateur mistakes tied to the relase of this game.

 

/Agree.

 

Had it never happened in an MMO release before we probably wouldn't be so vocal, but seeing as it has happened, and keeps happening, we have a right to complain. That's especially true as pre-sales figures have been available for ages, it isn't as though they didn't know how many were coming.

So who here knows how to develop MMO Infrastructure to support thousands of players online at once on a single sever?

 

If you can do a better job, I suggest you go and make your own MMO and stop ya ************

 

fanboy alert!!!

 

well they could ask CCP how they manage thousands of people on 1 server (clustering?!)

How reasonable is it to create just ONE Rp-PvP English sever and the same number of French and German RP-PvP servers for the whole Europe?

Don't tell me there's as many French or German speaking people in Europe as English speaking...

 

This is absolutely absurd and another English RP-PvP server should be added...

(the queue aint THAT bad - 300 people right now which translates to around 30 minutes... not half as bad as the person who waited 5.5 hours :S)

 

Well actually on my server list there is a lightly loaded english rp-pve server. The question is how do we get the new people to roll there instead of these more full servers. Could those heavy-full servers somehow be blocked from the view or dropped to the bottom or something?:confused:

 

And I am on place 270 for the progenitor server.

I have to queue every single time I login, this is not cool. I get a limited amount of "free" time to play and I have to waste it waiting to login.

 

This is by far my biggest problem, I know this is another QQ about servers queues and I know bioware are obviously working to try and resolve them but I have to kill some time while waiting so....

 

Bioware you have 30 Days, if after 30 days I still have to queue to login to the server that you assigned our Guild I will not be renewing. I can live with queues for the first few days (maybe a week) after all, all new MMO's seem to have this but after that I will refuse to pay monthly and spend time waiting to login.

During Early Access the queues weren't too bad for Trask Ulgo. Most there was only a queue during prime time, and only a 10 minute queue at that. Today there's a 20 minute queue at 11:00 GMT. That a little weird especially since an RP server was opened up.

 

Now, I am not going to complain. By and large I think early access and the roll-out has been a terrific success, especially when Bioware improved their communication and information output regarding early access after day 1, kudos for that.

 

What I do find puzzling is that apparently people can still create characters on servers that are full. Now, if these are people who signed up with a guild before release, that's great and should be possible, but my feeling is that new arrivals without any relation to a server should be redirected for a while at least until server populations becomes more stable across the board. Should ensure the new servers are populated and keep queueing times in check.

 

Just my 2 cents. :)

I like the idea of Bioware blocking access to the highest populated shards for a week and forcing ppl to reroll on the lower shards, server caps do need to be upped a fair bit, but alot of these problems would be resolved with a better distribution of players.

 

BIOWARE GIVE US CHARACTER/GUILD TRANSFERS

Can we please get an update on this issue BioWare? 2,5K replies and not a official word?

 

Are you closing your eyes and hoping the problem will go away, together with your bills, that WE pay? :cool:

 

Give us feedback, other than "we are aware of the issue" - You have been aware for quite some time now and I sincerly hope that you actually HAVE thought something out and that the silence isn´t because you just don´t know what do to with the problem..

The problem solves itself, just bioware needs to implement it. More servers, much higher server caps and Character/guild transfers. Do those three things (done the first one admittedly) and the queue situation will resolve itself to a more managable level like nothing :)

Game was released, Early just gone.

 

This is inacceptable. We deserve to know how full are our servers and not this crap. If Bioware/EA wanna continue with testing and filling up servers...blablabla, is ok but this must be a free service til then. We are paying for this crap.

+1 totally agree would be nice to know about queue times for a game we are now paying for
