Shadowstep Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Logged in, game says i am on 1300 something in queue and got 30 min to wait. 10 min later game says i am 1580# in queue and waiting time increased to 60 min. WHAT!? Is this new form of forcing players to buy premium membership? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yui Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Premiums get head of the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadowstep Posted January 22, 2016 Author Share Posted January 22, 2016 By almost 300 spots? I mean i could wait my whole life trying to get in game at this rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yui Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Unfortunately that is how the system is designed, it is obviously more noticeable during launch but for every premium that decides to log on you will be pushed back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rylaen Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Premiums are supposed to be displayed at a seperate number which is directly below your number... i think this whole thing is broken. i am in queue nearly 8 hours now, i joined when only 800 were on the queue... 3 hours ago i reached #44. The last 70 minutes my number has decreased from 24 to 21. how is this even possible... my brother joined the queue and his number has dropped over 300 while mine drops at a rate of 1 every 30 mins. I want someone from NCSOFT to clarify this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitsuriko Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 I thought when you're queuing as a non member, it'll show your place in the non member queue which I though would be independent of the priority queue :o in probably wrong though since I've not had experience with this.

Deflekted Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Why are people still wasting time posting about this? Read before complaining. They are installing brand new servers in Texas to essentially double the amount they can currently queue at once. They have also listed like 5 or 6 new servers with low pop for people to go to. OR, you can support the game you clearly like since it's making you react in anger when you can't play it and buy premium. $20 bucks gets you almost 2 months.... I bet 90% of the ppl complaining about Q times are still subbed to WoW but refuse to pay like $11 for premium during launch month. lol LOGIC folks, effing logic. but I guess $11 is worth more than hours and hours of twiddling ur thumbs waiting for Q which inevitably is going to ruin this game for you.

Yui Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 @Deflekted Don't just assume things about people with no basis. This is a forum, a place where anyone can come to ask questions, especially in general about the game. People are going to complain and ask questions and you can either be understanding and supportive or be un supportive and toxic. Even if you are tired of reading and responding understand you are clicking on a topics title likely getting an idea of what you are reading, and then complaining in a response. Just read if you are not going to contribute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not being a prick doesn't cost anything and yet, look at you. Yea, i am a f2p pleb because my country's banking system blocks all payments to NCSOFT, yeah i am subbed to wow and yeah i am on Windrest queue. but you are trying so much to be annoying that you actually miss the point. the point my friend is that the whole system feels flowed. Maybe it's just some random numbers appearing to everyone to try and get some more money. or maybe we haven't realised how it really works. It's unreal how i am #21 for 40 minutes now while my brother is on the same queue and his position dropped over 300 while mine drops roughly every 30 minutes.

DrRob Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Something is wrong if you're waiting in queue for hours, it's probably the server you keep trying to join. I've been playing since the launch as non-premium and at most I've only waited a little over an hour and that was during peak hours. A lot of times I can get in instantly.
