I have 39 minutes left in queue for the server I wanted to play on. Damn, I should be whining about that, shouldn't I? :)

They will most likely in the end give a few free days and all will be forgiven. They are banking on your apathy, plain and simple. It's like waiting for a bus, no matter how angry you get that it's late, once it's there you just get on and huff about it a bit. ----- Everything that has a begining, has an end. |

First and foremost, given the numbers in open beta and the number of pre-orders they should have been more adequately prepared for the head start. Second, there is no way in hell this issue was a surprise. It is a simple numbers game so they could have provided some fore-warning that queues might be an issue. Heck they even did a survey about servers so they have the knowledge. Third, offer some form of communication with the playerbase besides Twitter and keep us updated on - a) why this is happening?; B) what is being done about it?; and C) will it get better? That would be nice for starters. |

"more adequately prepared"? Explain that for me. They should have prepared a special headstart for your guild only? Is that what you're referring to? And fore-warning that queues might be an issue? Did you really not know that for yourself? Seriously? And the survey was for YOUR knowledge, so you would know what other players were going to be doing. They actually did that to help avoid issues like this. Offer something other than twitter.. lol They offer communication, just not in the precise form you want. lol So, here you have answered, and yet given us nothing but more proof that there's nothing that could have been done to please you. |

You're probably the type of guy that gets the wrong size pants/shirt and doesn't return them because you feel it was your fault. When you pay money for something you should get what you are entitled to and queues in head start are ridiculous. Servers need to be added yes, but the control of the population is what is needed to be done and should have been done during pre-selection. If you want to kiss ncSoft's ass go for it but don't say it isn't their fault cause it's 100% their fault.

Queues in a head start? never seen it. NEVER have seen it. Sorry I just don't expect queues in a head start especially of this magnitude. And Twitter is not formal communication and it greatly limits who can read your message. |

When people like you refuse to switch servers, what else could they do? Oh, yah, nothing. That's the simple little fact all of you whiners are ignoring. YOU are causing the problem. The solution doesn't involve whiping your ass for you, so you're not satisfied. |

I'm always amazed that people think everyone who has the good sense not to immediately get out the tar and feathers is a mindless fanboy. Here's a clue. Not being a total moron I don't preorder games and I don't play the first few days after launch for any game. Especially not for ones I have no intention of buying at all. I guess not buying a game makes me a fanboy huh? Quit your crying and wait. You're not helping anything least of all yourself.

I told you exactly what needs to be done, if you can't comprehend that, that is not my problem. For the last god damn time, the population of the servers should have been regulated during pre-selection, there should be no reason for every server to hit high status on head start. If population was more than the server count they had they should have opened more, not just fuck the customer and throw up queues. Stop being a god damn moron and open your eyes.

Why should I be MADE to switch servers when the whole point of the character creation part was to reserve your names on the server I WANT to play. Kinda silly to me to allow us to do that only to EXPECT us to switch servers due to queues. |

Okay fine....tell me what server that has no queue and I can go logon right now and if I get in with no queue, I won't post again. I just really want to know the name of the mythical queueless server. |

so you're too lazy to find it for yourself? Or would that just take time away from your whining? |

Originally posted by greed0104 Jerry Springer's Final though: Don't Pre-Order MMOs. I have pre-ordered many and never seen any queues much less queues of 2800 people. I have had the same method since I started playing. I pre-order (if its a game I really want), and play until I am basically exhausted until launch day. Then I leave the game sitting for a few days for the company to get all of the launch days issue sorted out. And then I come bac.It has served me well for years and never run into issues like this on or during a head start. |
