How did people log in so quickly?

[Quri]

I read a comment yesterday that suggested doing that, so that’s what I did. I also read that PS4 users were basically screwed so I didn’t even have hope. When I logged in I was 114 in queue and barely managed to buy plot 8 for my FC, 2 other players came up to my plot about 10-15 seconds after I relocated my FC. It was close and I got very lucky.

I'm on PS4 and logged in by 5:59, predownload the patch and was already to login. Had a que of 101 on sargtanas, starting from regalr reach to kugane, to housing.
