Just transferred to Omega, 20000 queue?

After coming back after a break I decided to transfer from my old server due to long queue times and no friends left on the server, and thought the new Omega server might be a good opportunity to start fresh and maybe find some new friends.

After transferring and trying to log in I am currently faced with a queue of 20000 instead of 3000-4000 on my old server. Is this right or am I experiencing some kind of bug?

So I'm not the only one having this issue pop up. I think it is a bug, because people report that they can get on the server in no time after transfer.

Can be a bug, i'm always getting a queue of 1 in Omega.

I have tried changing data centre, server, logging out and back in. Still encounter the same massive queue every time and now I'm stuck unable to play the game, this makes me sad :(

I created a new character on Omega just to be able to see the increased inventory boxes. Due to not having a hope in hell of logging into Cerberus it seems.

And I agree that the queue has always been 1 for me when logging it in. Which has only been like 4 times lol

Just created a new char on Omega to check. Almost no que-time. It's bizarre. I hope the issue gets noticed.

Is there a cooldown for logging in after transferring a character, or any other strange round about way of explaining this situation? It seems that the queue constantly counts down even if I log out and back in again it doesn't seem to go up.

Does the queue tick down normally or does it seem stuck at that ridiculous number?

I feel bad for you, lucky enough to have had no queues at all so far :/

But I cannot imagine the new server is so mega-popular that the 20,000 people are real, so I hope you get online soon.

In my case it ticks down. Originally at 14k down to 12k after an hour.

It does go down, but at the same slow speed it usually does. The strange thing is that it never changes or goes up, I start exactly where I left off when I log back in.

Welcome to the 10k+ club. Take a towel, snatch a snack and grab a seat.

I just logged out and went to grab a snack, came back after 15-20 mins and now the queue seems to be gone, at least extremely reduced. When I logged back in I got in a queue of 44, but I came in after maybe 20 seconds. Seems like a strange bug that resulted from the character transfer.

I also tried relogging after your message. I'm still in the 10k+ range, but I'm glad you got in.

Enjoy Stormblood!

Thanks. I had the same thought and will try this now too.

EDIT - And it worked. Came back in with a queue of 90. Just as a heads up for any who experience the same.

I tried relogging aswell without much luck, only after logging out and giving it a while did it seems to work properly.
