LepantoESP Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 I started some thread, and then it was closed, maybe so we can all rant here, probably so forums don't get overrun by people complaining. What I really want to know is WHAT is going to be done, nay, what IS being done about this issue. Hell WILL freeze over before people, specially those in guilds, forgo their current characters to roll new ones on servers with less population .. So WHAT, is being done? Game is awesome, props to BW for a stellar effort, but these issues severly detract from the gaming experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tako Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 The Wait is Over!!! Instead of waiting for the game you now wait to play! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caelith Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 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. "[/indent] That made me laugh. Been in a queue for longer than the estimated wait and I'm still 417 in the queue.stupid to have to wait this long just to play. How is this even possible? massive queues and no relog grace period, its amateurish and ridiculous. Hopefully this will be fixed soon, because as much as i love the game i didn't buy the CE so i could learn patience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaykin Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Probably the last update from me, 4 hours into my estimated 1 hour 45 minute queue, I still have 59 people in front of me... Bloodworthy needs its cap raised. And it needs it raised now. To go on other server - will not help. Friday evening I was satisfied that I`m on very heavy server (hex droid). Left only 2 days - queus is already 500 players in peek hours (apprxmetily 1,5 hours instead 45 minutes announced). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xaeo Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 I won't complain about the specific length of queues, they're to be expected during launch. Rather I take exception with how these queues came about, how they affect certain players and would like to propose a means through which to appease these players. I am sympathetic to the nature of launches in general, and I appreciate the fact that Bioware has at least addressed the fact that there is a tangible issue with server population. And while it is certainly far from the top of their priority list, I'd like to implore the developers to allow a temporarily free transfer service. With such a system players will be able to remove themselves from servers that host multiple guilds of hundreds of people and thus possess larger queues. Even if it's just for the first month, give us the option to move our characters that have been levelled during early game access (level 28 since Dec. 13). Especially since guild deployment was kept anonymous, at this point it's as though we're being punished for randomly selecting the wrong server on the the first day of access. I am willing to be patient, I am willing to wait in (reasonable) queues, but I'd like to do it on my terms. I'm fine with waiting in queues if it's for a server I want to play on, however waiting because my character is being held hostage on a server that became "full" days after I placed it there is not acceptable. I do not claim special status, nor a right to privileged access, nor do I expect exceptional treatment. I merely respectfully request a means through which to better determine my own SWTOR fate: temporary character transfers to servers which host fewer massive guilds. Thank you.

TheAlkie Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Theres a hell of a lot of people playing this game who pre-ordered. Maybe just maybe and hopefully maybe this is queing system has been put in place on purpose so when the game actually goes out live on Tuesday all us pre0order players arent too far ahead in level. Or maybe its just C R A P lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleGloomy Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 EU only have 2 RP PVE servers, both have 30 min + queues so not much option as to server change really. IF one wants a RP PVE server that is. And why would ppl chose it if they didnt?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumajin Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 This is just over the top. Waited 4 hours, played 4 minutes and got DC'd just to get back in line again 1200+. It's scandalous ! Don't begin to say create on another server, you guys put me here with my guild !! The wait is over....yeah right ! Exactly. In far too many cases they assigned the server to entire guilds. Re-rolling is not an option, but sure is an insult. Bioware needs to fix this now. Thank goodness I have a 2-day Grace Period before I have to pick-up my reserved copy or activate it. December 21st will speak volumes to me on whether they can manage their own game, and are worth the consumer investment at this point in time.

Tadeik Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 I understand that there will be queues 30min max I can live with anything over that is just down right wrong, Time is precious in games so when 1hr of your 2hrs gaming window is taken up my queueing its really off putting and starts to become pointless in playing the game Roll to another server , well If you invested time into a toon on a server you were pre asigned why should you roll due to the mistakes made by BW and tell people to do so is wrong!! /Rant over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northland Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 These large ques certainly wont discourage forum trolling. I mean 4 hour wait now, at least only 184 still in que before me. I cant even manage to keep up from all the updates on this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arodi Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 My 1h20mins wait time was over 10 mins ago and still have 534 of the original 1200 peeps in line in front of me, which would mean another hour of waiting roughly? Queues used to move up faster than this at the start. Anyways, if this doesnt improve, I truely regret that I even started with the game and spent the money on it that I did. Been in quite a few MMOs, never ever have seen queues at all. I think its the most suckiest invention ever. I have 1 month of sub with my digital deluxe. If this isnt fixed in my first month in, I'll simply be looking for another hobby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenzkin Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Ok bioware enough already. Your players need an update on the situation don't keep us hanging your just annoying everyone now. I think the number of posts in the last 24 hours justifies a response and I don't mean the pathetic two fingered response that we have all seen and read Please bioware give us something, just talk to us. Most of all be honest with us <3 My thoughts exactly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

damolawler Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 (edited) The only way bioware will fix the queues is if we the pissed off customers force them to. How? Well write or e-mail every major gaming magazine, website and blog. Only after a torrent of bad publicity is something ever going to get done. Let's pay bioware back for this disgusting state of affairs. Edited December 18, 2011 by damolawler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If want we have patience, make like FFXIV and make it f2p before solve the problem, and sure will be the worst f2p release in the MMO history, if make it for p2p MMO will be the most shame of history...
