Regarding the Ongoing Congestion Situation and Compensation

[JanVanding]

I believe it is the 2002 that frustrate us, long queue are expected.

I don't know what other MMO you play, but more than half of the MMO I play offer compensation in someway. As I mention earlier it is the 2002 that warrant the free sub.
EU DC suffer most severely, a quick look at NA and JP DC they might have queue but many of them have spot for new character while EU have always been congest long before EW launch

Not 7 days game time they don't for 2 days of issues.

It's usually like for like or ingame items/currency.

They are literally giving people more than they are entitled to and it's still not enough?

Free time is not a compensation for me since i'm paying every month ....discount on my next billing is better. This is something i can see.
Otherwise exp boost is real compensation for the time lost for pre-ordering something i cannot enjoy and time lost wating in the queue. Because more time to play will not refund me the lost time in my exp schedule.

Then think of it as a discount. Your next bill will be delayed by 7 days. You are, in effect, being refunded for 7 days of playtime.

That's why they're giving it to you, to make up for the expected 7 days of not being able to play. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Lol if you think the queues will get better in a week. If anything they gonna get worse, and then even worse with the raids launch.

The only real solution are
A) upgrade the servers, but that costs money
B) ban AFK people

They are literally giving people more than they are entitled to and it's still not enough?

Again, the issue is still not resolved and will probably get worse next week. If EA was such a mess, official launch will only be worse. It really is not that hard to understand really.

I dont think I say a 7 day free sub is not enough, just pointing out the 2002 (especially in EU DC) warrant the free sub they giving.

I think the dev is doing the right thing for giving out free sub for situation like this. However, I dont think the queue would get any significant better in 1 week, especially we are close to X'mas. All I want is a fix for the 2002. I would certainly pick a fix for 2002 over free sub.

[Fhaerron]

You guys are still whining despite most developers wouldn't have even given you any free time, maybe a day at most. The queues will settle down soon within a week.

What??



I've been playing MMO's since 2004. Majority of them have been giving you compensation when servers were going bonkers even Blizzard (of all companies) has done that.

Maybe you and I come from different plantes.

We were expecting some news to fix the 3 hours queue login ... this compensation does not solve the current problem.

[Luzifusy]

all the people asking the devs to upgrade the servers... they literally can't! they have a chip shortage which won't resolve any time soon. so expect the que to be up for at least a month. true gamers will deal with it, if u can't then stop wasting your time on queing for a videogame and spent time in the real world.

Its telling what SE thinks of their "customers" when they don't even account for how many hours people have wasted babysitting their que incase it decides to error out. Yeah really happy about your 2 dollar "compensation"

if you don't want your free 7 days can you and everyone else that feels the same please petition square to instead gift it to me ? for petes sake, it's day 3 of addon release (yes, early access is the full release no matter how you slice it), the login queues indeed are an issue but how a lot of people want it handled is the purest form of entitlement.
