New Queue System


Celler

Recommended Posts

Perhaps many see this new method as fairer these are my thoughts.

I've been playing since just before Xmas and although the state of server size and regular drops were a small issue they were no where near like they are now. Before latest patch I've never waited more than 15 minutes after repeated attempts to log in.

Now last time I logged in it says there is a queue of 950 people and my expected queue length is 4 hours.This is not reasonable and despite you offering a fun enjoyable product I Shall withdraw at this point sadly.

I did log straight in but game was lagging and then when I clicked on my poke box in mart it crashed saying to check fault description in game folder. Imagine thats something else but frankly can't wait 4 hours to find out.

I can only assume that before patch many would try and then give up on access now they can just wait so queue is much larger.

 

I thank you for the fun I've had and hope to play again at some point in the near future.

I think people should not take "estimated time" too seriously, because it depends on the rate of people disconnecting at the same time. I had a 900+ queue that lasted no more than 20 minutes, maybe because it was a time when everyone was logging out, or maybe a lot of people quit the queue. DOn't be discouraged by the number, you will get logged in in less than an hour 99% of the time, and most probably in around 30 minutes max. It's pretty much the same amount of time that i was taking to log before, without having to spam the log in button and to rely on luck. The only problem i had with queue so far was getting kicked of it for no reason, and this is actually a big issue, since i could wait 30mn before checking it again only to see i'm not in queue anymore. Besides that, the queue system is a great improvement for most players.

I was trying not to complain, am always grateful for what is basically a free product.

I was more looking for others thoughts and perhaps some idea as to what plans there are to addresss the issue that will perhaps get worse as more find the game.

Am glad its working out for many, I used to just re log repeatedly that normally got me in quite quick.

I'll give it a go later then perhaps, just seemed demand is far greater than the game can currently handle though.

Which I suppose is good for devs but bad for us currently, was not aware it was this bad is all.

its not even fair, I am already waiting for 1 hour and I was initially in position 401, now I am in position 506... the way I see it you have to let it be the way it was unless you can update the server even more... the server should be able to accept at least +20% from the total number of clients ideally

Meh. With the queue system, you basically have to wait like 1-2 hours before managing to enter into the server, before this, spamming the ''Login'' button would take like 15-30 minutes at the most, based on your luck, since every minute or so a player logs out to do whatever he does and then you can sneak up on the game. It was fair for all players; if you had a bit of patience you'd end managing to login after a few tries, even if the server was in an horary that a lot of players were logging in/out.

 

In short; the queue system only benefits the players that don't have a lot of time to play, so they can just enter the queue, go take a shower, eat or whatever and when they arrive they'll be in.

 

I really don't care a lot about this, since you enter the queue system when the server is full, so you can cancel the queue and keep spamming the login button, so really it doesn't have any disadvantages, it's just something for the busy players so they can play the game, so I don't see why quitting the game because this feature lol.

You guys wanted a queue system so we gave you one. We have a very big playerbase compared to our server limitation, which will continue to expand over time. On that regard there isn't much we can do at the moment.

Most of the crashes were a result of the spamming the login button, which as you can see from the queue, around 900 players constantly smashing that login button, which creates a small DDoS effect from time to time.

87967 Queue System no longer works for me, am I being targeted now lol

 

I know guy, before quence system, i am spend 15 min for log in, now it spend for more 2 hour. However, it seem be likely for doing something else and sure to log in the game - by more time but sure can log in.

 

Be patient :Angel:
