Queues time to log in are getting worse over the days.

We just need to bring back the auto log out after inactivity, doesn't have to be the 10 minutes we have when a new expansion launches but 30 minutes seems reasonable.

I'm sitting in a 795 player queue at the moment on Cerberus.

I asked just for a Limsa AFK timeout months ago, and that ask is looking better each day.

There are people who just won't logout at all, and that does affect the rolling queue so 30 minutes could be a decent counter-measure if they get desperate before the server upgrades take place. Of course they always have to put the AFK timer worldwide during a launch because more people are logged-in actively and you want to weed out anyone who isn't playing.

I hope they can increase capacity and/orr add new servers soon. I'm all for the game becoming more popular, but I'm not looking forward to 1500+ queues for the coming months, and especially not for Endwalker launch.
That's what this feels like, launch week queues. 1500+ on Odin right now.

They need to add new servers or increase the amount of players that can play on each server. Right now you can't make a new character on any of the EU servers at all, while on the US servers there are only 11 out of 24 servers you can join. I've been trying to log in for 40 minutes now. Not a great way to welcome new players really. Not a problem if you are Japanese though as only one is not accepting new characters.

Yep it's horrible,
on european serveur too,
Every datacenter explaoding .

I get a 1000 players queue and a very very long waiting time,

Many people wanted FFXIV to have more players now it does and it's time to reap the whirlwind.

more players is not a problem, the concern is the capacity of the servers that do not follow.

Yep. There needs to be room for said new players, along with those who were already here. I recall reading that they are working on it, but they will probably implement these improvements with Endwalker itself. Makes sense I guess.
