The new Visit another world server feature is bugged, blocking players from playing.

[Setesh45]

If you try the new visit another world server feature you'll get stuck in the login queue with thousands of players, people are getting locked out of the game, could anyone look into it please?
Apparently people have been getting stuck there since yesterday, but no warning, nothing anywhere.

Thanks.

indeed. have had 26k que that ultimately gets an error and crashes out. is there any way just to change back to logging in normally?

Can you re-request being assigned to another server to try logging in again?

I tried it yesterday when Aegis server (the home world for the character I was using at the time) seemed to be running slow and lost connection, so I tried switching server before logging back in and it worked seamlessly.

Edit to add: I think it redirected me to Gungnir if that makes any difference.

tried this, been looping between garuda and some other server and same problem.

I tried visiting another world, relog, shutting the game down, logging to another data center, tried different characters, nothing helped. It fixed itself after two hours of being offline.
