Quick, we need an Elrond themed queue-dance, like WoW had:  www.leagueofpirates.com/sirvival/queuedance.html

Still waiting for your Holy Grail MMORPG? Interesting...

Or could it be "...That's what happens when you open up the game for everyone to try, before buy?" just a thought....

OOR, its what happens when your too lazy to develop a universal log on system because you want people to waste time making characters across multiple servers.  Its not even a hard thing to program.

Freedom of choice

Hate to burst your boubble boys, but the queues are part of beta testing

They announced few days ago that they will randomly put people in queues to test the queue system.
I guess they removed the notice because they also wanted to see how pissed people will get, aswell...

They're testing the system, folks, and also trying to get a gauge of how popular it is going to be.  Blizzard wasn't exactly "prepared" when WoW was released either, and I think Turbine's plan is to work out these kinks now, during the beta (by making it wide-open), and have a very smooth launch -- so that the game works smoothly once you are actually paying for it!  You remember that, right?  The fact that you're not paying for it now, and that you're playing to help them test and finalize the release code?

Isnt it still in beta? I dont think they are going to open a ton of servers when its still in beta. When the game is "released" more servers will be open, I think.

wrong.


It isn't wrong.  To make a universal login, instead of using the login-server to store just account info then forward to the server block.  You use it to also save character data that is referenced then forwarded to the server a person is playing on.  Then when the player logs out, the character data is forwarded back to the login server for saving.

They just want the easy playtime increaser of keeping characters on 1 server so people have to remake if they wanna switch.
