Login Queues

I feel like these are a lie. At peek hours it's like 30. At dead hours (5/6 AM) it's like 10. I have a hard time believing these are still needed.

P.S. It's most likely bots. I never seen bots this bad in all my time playing this game.

It's a forced log-in queue to help keep traffic flowing smoothly. I suspect it will likely go away in a patch or two. Even if it doesn't, whatever they did this expansion to keep log in queues so low even from day one worked and I'm more than happy to have to sit through at most a 30 second log in screen if that's what it took.

In the first few weeks i sometimes had login queues of several hundred up to 1500, which meant waiting up to 1.5 hours to log in.

I think the EU servers are pretty crowded still and they could still stand to add a server or two to it. I've seen a couple queues of 1500 but they were always right after a crash or unexpected maintenance when everyone and their dog was trying to get back in.

I agree with you on the bots situation. The worlds that have these queues seem so empty when you are playing, and then you'll see the random group of bots flying in the air, or underground. I couldn't make an alt on Coeurl cause the bots were going in and out of a quest MSQ section and I couldn't proceed. They were there for over an hour. I've noticed it mostly on Crystal it's really bad, but even on Aether. I hope they do something about it Normally I never noticed until I couldn't proceed in MSQ.

Twintania/Spriggan have it the worst. Character creation is already restricted during the day due to the overpopulation of bots. I would bet we have like 8 bots per player on this server.

Sometimes they are and you can just cancel the queue and then log in directly. But it doesn't always work, sometimes the queue is real.

It probably has to do with a hard cap that is in place. If the world has reached that cap, you will be placed in queue when logging in, even a queue of 1. Bots are still player characters that take the same amount of resource.

Sometimes they are and you can just cancel the queue and then log in directly. But it doesn't always work, sometimes the queue is real.

I think that's more of a case of the queue not checking in real time. Cancelling the queue and logging in again simply forces the game to check manually.

Do tell, how. No really, do you honestly think there's a magic fix to remove all bots from any online game, ever?
