UP - let the chaos commence

Prepare for system overload

Number in queue - a lot

I'm losing to Launcher EX.

I can't even log in, just click the log in button and nothing happens.

After getting past the log in button I get some random error in Japanese despite using English and it closes.

EDIT: Here, for reference:

I miss the days when Mateus was such a low pop world that queue times barely stopped you.

Wonder if they're really just throttling the inflow of players for now so everything doesn't implode immediately.

... and that on the one 'low pop' world in this DC....

Throttling would definitely make sense after what happened 2 years ago. Just getting past the launcher was a nightmare. I had to restart it several times.

I wonder that as well, because Brynhildr is not a highly populated server, yet even in the lat few weeks I was having a short queue wait to log in, today it was 990, down to 290 now.

My number in Q is suspiciously going down in "100s"
Plus, I didn't think behemoth was such a popular world to have 1954 players in the Queue, primal isn't the most populated NA server, iirc.

I'm glad I moved to Twintania. Had 108 in front of me, I'm in now :)

I had a client crash and had to log in again V_V 1k+ players in front of me :C

Behemoth is my home world, so them visitors better get off my lawn, err, world! *shakes fist* :D
But yeah,I agree that there is some kind of login-throttle, it's going down at a very constant rate, it's at 954 now.

... and after it finally counts down to 0 I think "Oh now I get in" after more then 20 minutes of wait time... but no.... instead I get a 'connection with server lost' error and disconnect. Starting all over..... FRUSTRATED!

Stuck in a "Cannot obtain world data" loop 😭

On Zalera (which gets preferred status off and on, I think? idk, recent transfer hoping for a low pop server), had a queue of around 1100. But that was shortly after servers went up. I'm sure that'll fluctuate. Queue progressed at a decent clip. Throttling makes sense. Got in without issue. I'm not getting into ShB for a while, so I just wanted to check out some job changes. Thankfully was in Ul'Dah before maintenance, so there's no problems of getting bogged down by new dancers and gunbreakers in the zone.
