darth_freefall Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Its the launch day of an MMO if you expect no queues then you are delusional and kidding yourself. And so what if it is a weekday, I'm sure plenty of people took time off work to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korrigan Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) Dumb people are dumb. Why they keep creating characters on already full servers... even my RP server is having sick queues atm.The problem is not that easy, at least in Europe... when they opened the flood gates, it was 6am. Most people were sleeping or getting ready for work. So even the full servers appeared not full. I'd blame "the new people" if it was their fault. But there was absolutely no way at 6am (EU time) to know which servers usually have a queue. Edited December 20, 2011 by Korrigan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluumberry Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) the queues for Aion when it was released were around 15-25 minutes on the server I was on but that went away after a few weeks. That's hilarious cos I had 6 hour queues. I wouldn't complain about queues in SWTOr if it weren't for the fact that it's very early even in my country and I'm ahead of most countries in time and I'm still looking at an hours worth of queue at least. And no I can't reroll when my guild was assigned to this freaking high population server. Stop blaming the players when they obviously should have locked some of the EGA servers for launch. Edit: On another note it seems like I got suddenly in even though my position in queue was over 300. Weird.

DuranuLithdel Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 People just need to suck it up about the queues the queues and server caps are there to encourage people to join the light servers that have just opened so people arent all alone in a server if your stupid enough to join a heavy server that's your own fault. Server queues are much more consumer friendly than bioware saying **** you chose a different server Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daweee Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Its morning and a weekday in EU and the queues are crazy... you know it will be several hours at prime time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korrigan Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Stop blaming the players when they obviously should have locked some of the EGA servers for launch.Locking was impossible. For instance, some of my guildies waited release to join us. But a big red warning "QUEUES AT PRIME TIME" would have been enough to keep the newcomers who don't join a guild out of them.

stargie Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Dumb people are dumb. Why they keep creating characters on already full servers... even my RP server is having sick queues atm. The problem is that servers shows their status based on ppl connected to them. So if server is normally full at peak time with lets say 2h queue, at the morning they are light so new ppl creating characters on them. Imagine now queue time in peak time if they are full already. 10-15hr ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nizedine Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 These queue whinners, please just leave the game, so tired of hearing.. QUEUE omg. It's LAUNCH. And btw, if you did your research, they are on it, they are aware of the queue problems... so either STOP whinning, or just leave! Sounds more like haters to me. Warhammer had queues and crashes... SWTOR has the most smooth launch to date! tbf m8 that would get rid of the ques, and the whiners.. win win i'm chilling eating bacon while in que so it's all good here and i fully agree, i'll be nice and compare it to wow coz everyone seems to love doing that... wow had a worse launch then this by far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GyroGate Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) Wow. I rerolled from Bloodworthy to Kai-Kan to get out of the queues - went from a level 20 Jedi Shadow to a level 12 Jedi Guardian. Guess what, I'm now in a queue at 10 am. What the hell. I sure am glad there's no grace period for disconnecting, I was almost done in my Flashpoint. If this is not fixed, at least the grace period part - I wont subscribe.

Revanx Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Seriously. I have been in a queue for 45 minutes, at 8:00am on a tuesday. Ok, the game is new, but honestly it isn't acceptable for a p2p. Stop no-sense QQ. It's first official day of this MMO, every MMO in the universe history first day got queue. Also if u don't subscribe we don't care at all, we will regardless what u will do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korrigan Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Its morning and a weekday in EU and the queues are crazy... you know it will be several hours at prime timeYeah, that makes me worry a lot. Those are obviously new players who joined at launch mostly, since usually there's no queue on my server this early. Prime time is gonna be awful. Problem is, if the newcomers stay logged in all day, they may never notice the queues until it's too late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiaa Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Have a 300 person SLOW que at 10 in the morning? I don't get it. This is shocking because for the most part my server looks dead and lifeless half the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ssgrif Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 I love the game and think BW did a great job. queues are expected during the initial release of a MMO. HOWEVER, we expect these queues to die down over the next few days especially as BW made such a deal about controlling the release and subscribers to the game to ensure a stable launch. Yes the servers are stable but thats because theyre nobody on them as theyre all queuing! Lets hope this is only temporary, because if it lasts after xmas I know that most ppl apart from the die hard SW fans will give up and thats bad news for BW and SWTOR! I have patience but its limited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korrigan Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 This is shocking because for the most part my server looks dead and lifeless half the time.What gives me some hope is that despite server being full (and having queues of 1+hour during early access at prime time), I never ever experienced any kind of lag. This makes me think the caps is set lower than what the servers can take, to avoid people rushing full servers and encourage them to go on low pop ones, and that the cap will be removed in the next days.

CountDrahlkarn Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Hopefully the queue's will be sorted soon, but if they're not then i might not sub. From what I've experienced so far, the game is awesome. But the lack of ability to play when I have the spare time is a problem. Couple that with the fact that when I wait 3 hours in the queue, I get dc'd after about 30 minutes and have to start again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slome Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Already subscribed. Don't like the queue for your server? Reroll on a less populated one.

NaturaldisasterP Posted December 20, 2011 Author Share Posted December 20, 2011 people telling me "queues on the first day! should have expected it!" don't quite get my point. All i am saying, is that there have been queues throughout the whole early access already. FIne. The game just launched. Fine as well. All I am saying is taht they should find a solution, otherwise they just don't deserve subscription money if they can't even handle servers.

Mandrax Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 I've already subbed. Queues are annoying but to be expected. I have a feeling that most people have either never played an MMO at launch, or don't have the patience to join an MMO at launch. I've never seen an MMO launch without queues.

Corben Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Ok seriously people. Ques on a launch day is nothing to be suppriced at, how ever.... The ques is nothing new and has been around since the first day of early access so to just say " What did you expect on a launch day" is not realy a valid arguement. Ques ARE a big annoyment and a rather serious issue. Saying "Re roll on another server" is pretty flunky aswell since alot of ppl are way beyond lvl 20-30 and i know i sure as hell would want to start all over again and scratch my lvl 34 BH. How ever, things will pan out eventually even if its realy annoying having to pay for sitting in a que, be it in a game que or quing at the store buying milk I know ppl wont stop complaining about these issues any more that ppl will stop complaining about the complainers, but i do wonder which one is the most silly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wargan Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 I really hope that Bioware will buy better servers. I can't agree more with the logic that if ppl start making chars at strange hours, they will likely end up at high pop servers. Maybe they should flag servers as full even if ppl are not logged in on them? And please start making free char transfer available. I'm looking forward to this problem being taken care of so we can start leveling and doing operations. Really love this game, it is all that I hoped for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziso Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 Re-Rolling on other servers is not an option to many of those who came to Tor in a Guild and have been assigned to a full server by BioWare. Our guild from SWG came across, pre launch had 140 members and in total expect about 200 of ex SWG members to join us here. Howver, the majority ive spoken to so far, like myself, wont subscribe if these ques still exsist after the "free" 30 days subscription as many have limited game time due to work/families etc. Game itself if brilliant but simply no point in paying to play if we cannot play when we want to. Already que times you may as well times by 6 what it says and that was early access. I just hope they sort thier act out before the free 30 days comes to an end or they will lose alot of subscriptions, which ironicly may improve que times for others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indica Posted December 20, 2011 Share Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) ... stay logged in all day, they may never notice the queues until it's too late. *smile* I did that on Sunday. Stayed online from 10 in the morning but was force to logout by a game bug. Once I logged back in I was in position 800 even though I was playing 3 minutes ago. **** that.
