45 min in queue so far and have advanced from 14000 to 7200... so probably an hour and a half wait just to relog to do alt DOFF leveling... I think im going straight to 50 after this wait!
There are many time zones around the world, the thing about the world wide web is that any point in your day is every other point for other people. It's like me complaining that you're doing your evening shopping at three in the morning - it's the evening for you.
see my above post keep taking the high road all you do is get aggravation going better to be quiet then open your mouth and fuel things....ive done my part to help and this is my repayment well i don't want people to suffer either so why would i buy into or spend more on this model ? NO truly anyone try and justify it.....
and the "oh when it works its great" is not enough, because it never works GREAT its more like works well enough ....and yea ok done whining don't play games for stress i think ill go play total war....and use my graphics card i bought new for something
I am beginning to think that the queue only moves when people experience a server timeout...
This is infuriating and not acceptable... cryptic: upgrade your hardware now
lol yep well cryptic did say that they were aware there is issues with the queuing system. Reckon there delibratly booting players off so people cant complain they have had no gameplay....... give them 5 mins each lol
To be fair, it's a bit of a joke really. Cryptic obviously haven't got the server requirements for their customers. They've raved recently about how much work they've done on their servers, but we've still got a lot of people queuing.
I signed on about 2:30pm (GMT+1), I had a short wait then, though have recently attempted to switch character so I can grind through some dailies. I'm not stuck in a queue of 20k+ :rolleyes:
so this is the second day of getting put at 19k on the login queues. i'm just wondering if they are doing this deliberately. I get in after however long and play for10 mins then get dc'ed and get put back to 19k. I get in play for 30 mins decide to change toons and BAM what do you know back to 19k. with all of the problems over the past few weeks with the whole NW and LOR beta server crashes one would think that they would upgrade their servers to handle the increase in players to said games. but sadly no they would rather just enrage 20k customers and risk losing players and profits in the process. don't get me wrong I understand that thereis going to be an increase of players due to the expansion, but to have 22111 players in the queue ( it is 3:25 pm est. 5/22/2013 for the record ) waiting to play a game is just a downright slap in the face when all this could have been prevented with just a little preparation.
The real problem is not free to play vs. pay, nor booting... apparently their programming team didnt take into account the idea of having overflow (without instanced, individual servers)... max $ for work that way!
LOL... did you notice one of the things they had to quickly fix yesterday?
"Updated the name of the Romulan Legacy Pack in the C-Store.
*Previously it was displaying as the "Founder's Pack.""
Well, thank god thats taken care of. Now we all can breath a sigh of relief.
goes down ever so slowly ive been in a que now for just over 3hours and only gone down from 25k to 22300 at this rate I may get to play sometime next month
I'm #21,622 in the queue of 21,961. This is ridiculous.
An Hour? I figure 5 hours of waiting to get in...might as well never log out...oh wait that's what happens in asia, then never log out they just tag off players to keep going 24/7
While I'm glad that STO finally gets it's well-deserved popularity, unless something changes, all those new players will move out and never look back. No one will wait 20k+ queue. Cryptic will be back to square 1.
Last night when they first re-re-re-launched.. (LOL) as soon as the server came up i logged in and was stuck in a que 1K of people that quickly.. their server must be really small and can only handle very few people at that rate.. today (Just now) over 25K people waiting in line..
Now dont get me wrong but Ive been playing about 6 months.. never have i ever seen a que.. instanat login always..
Sure this is a 'new release' update release.. sure many are probally excited to see it.. but their servers cant handle it and leave 25K people waiting in line that will most likely give up?
Something has to give.. I wonder what the chances are of them reducing slots to try and improve their sale stats for LTS, Monthly and so on???
Would not suprise me esp with the 'big sale of LT' that just so happend to come out just beause of the new launch..

Wtf?
Infinite possibilities have implications that could not be completely understood if you turned this entire universe into a giant supercomputer.

Ahh the dilemma of the login queue
A long login queue incentivises staying on, thus making the login queue even longer since nobody logs off.
