They are working on it. But happy that my chars not gone (well, 1 char i have xD )
And my que is now 229...
Ofc that doesnt mean there cant jump a small error window and when i relog nothing prevents the queue number being above 3000
people comming from work... allkinds of bad stuff can happen to that number x.X

It doesnt even give me a queue number. Just no character and the "unable" message :/

I've been trying from 6PM to 10 past Midnight. Could never see my character once (character selection empty all the time with "unable to obtain data due to server congestion).

I've paid for an early access and the only thing I have is the feeling that my character is now gone.

I did not have the privilege to see a 1000 players queue.

Do you guys think I will be able to log to the servers at least during the EA period I paid for? Thank you for assistance.

I got that same error message but the que will go down. It went down about 100 per minute on primal, so if it's the same on whatever server you're on, it will likely do the same. Just stay in character screen, even if it gives you the character retrieval error. Number in waiting will drop down about 100 a minute, but it will take that whole minute for the number to be updated, and if you leave your char screen, you get thrown back down to the bottom of the pile.

Basically it wont update the que number until 100 of those players have logged in, since it seems to do blocks of 100 at once.
