well i dont know about you but i think when the other people come in game on the 2nd its going to be hell for all the people that prepayed... If your going to make a game like this you have to know there will be a HUGE out come.. So what to do MAKE A BIG SERVER... Well while your waitng clean your rooms or house run to the store e mail a friend cuss its going to be a lone wait... Whats your thoughts ?......
what the hell do i have to make an appointment 2 hours ahead of time before i want to play.
i meen really i'm a spur of the moment gamer. damnit all to hell!!
I'm thinking I need to write a program to auto start the launcher and log me into the queue for weekdays. Have it auto run 2 hours before I get off work and maybe I'll be in within 30 min of getting home. The queue is now 1252 of 2032 and growing. I have moved a total of 16 spots in a little over 20 minutes.
This is pretty sad. I had high hopes, but this latest move is pretty bottom barrel in my honest opinion. If they are going to put a queue in at least put a blurb on the website ("Due to unexpected demand our server capacity has been reached. We are working to resolve the issue before launch. Please be aware of long queue times.")
This would only be a bad situation if they'd make an announcement on what's going on. Currently it's a nightmare for the game.
Im sure this 'queued' mess will blow over, but I just have to point out what happened to me today:
I'm playing and for some reason the game spazzes and I have to reboot my system.
I log back in, says server is up, but I keep being queued, then almost instantly kicked.
I keep trying, sometimes I sit there and the numbers never move, except to say more people are joining the queue.
Once it fianlly let me in, and then as soon as I began playing the game client crashed and wouldnt let me know. So wow, in order to test any changes to my video card, it takes TWO BLEEPING BLEEPING BLEEPING mother BLEEPING hours to perform one single test of my video card driver.
I am so disgusted you cannot imagine.
Whoever decided to create a queue needs dragged from his cubicle, tarred, feathered, hung, drawn, quartered, filleted and sauteed.
What in the world is Cryptic penalizing its user base because some upper level manager didn't throw resources and manpower at the server problem. The fix is to queue us? Seriously? Did Cryptic hire someone who worked in GM management to run its STO server farm?
I'm flabbergasted.
yeah yeah, I'm all angst and shouldnt be such a grouch since the game hasn't started. Thats besides the point.
My last login attempt said I was in position 381 out of 380. Now how the frak does that make sense?
wow 918 - 2247 i exeted by mistake now i have to pay the price .. so i cleaned my house checked the mail came back and only moved one spot this blows.. its onl going to worse in the next cupple of days
I think queues are a good idea for server stability but I think if they are already hitting the cap without the game being officially released yet, they may want to add more servers with haste.
Oh holy hell,
Logged in to play and I was 113 of 698. Now I'm 135 of 927? What the hell? Welcome to Headstart beta where you get a headstart on the Queue. A 4-day headstart to get used to this. :rolleyes:
Its nice idea, didn't know "a lot" complaining to have it in, but its VERY appalling for HEAD START. Since head start began, only played 2-3 hours at most with my family. Expecting to play 6+, but thanks to all the "issues" Cryptic having. Cryptic better compensate the head start people.
@##$% QUED for 45 minutes and only number changing is the number of people waiting. Guess I will roll preoder into Mass Effect 2 and wait for Brink this fall for a SciFy MMO to play. I refuse to go back to swinging a sword, must have SciFy MMO.
I can't stay in the queue for more than a minute before i get kicked back to the login screen and when I get back in it, i'm at the back of the line. Can we get some sort of queue to get into the login queue?

It's as simple as that.
