Queues time to log in are getting worse over the days.

I mean, when i started playing 3 weeks ago it was normal to see something around 30 players max in queue and have to wait something around 30 seconds or 1 minute, but now...

40 minutes on queue to log in (Light/Shiva), isn't it time to maybe open a new server?

Its getting ridicules to be honest, I have wasted a lot of time just trying to log in after work and I usually have a strict play schedule.
Something must be done, maybe the next maintenance they will address it.

That sounds like the server crashed and everyone was trying to log back in at the same time. EU servers are mostly dead.

People wanted FFXIV to be more populare and successful, now we gotta pay the price for our hubris.

Well. This is mad as toast.

Yeah, the last time I recall seeing it like this was when we were all lumped together on Chaos and the hamsters hadn't been fed.

We're seeing it in EU as well of recently. I login in the morning and don't log out until I go to bed so I rarely get impacted but I had friends and people in my FC being stuck at 300-400 people queue. Normally we see 10-20 max.

It'll fall off once the free login period ends and a lot of the new comers fall off

I've not seen it be super bad but I've noticed they are bigger then normal. Mornings I used to have no queue or maybe like 3 people, now even in the mornings it's 30+.

Either the data server's fallen over, or it might be DDoS stuff afoot. Got to 6 in the queue after 20 mins, lobby error, kicked, 400-odd queue wait again.

Somewhere, some hamsters are hungry and protesting.

EDIT: The alt got in after circa 40 minutes. Am trying the main now, though I think it's maybe the data centre with some hiccups more than anything.

yeah, the times are HORRENDOUS.. had 36 people ahead of me and took 25 seconds to log in. MADNESS!

seriously though, if there are 1300 people ahead of you, likely was more of a server went down than that many people in line ahead of you in a normal queue
