Please fix the grace period while in queue

[masanbol]

The danger appears to be at the end of the queue when you are actually being logged in to the game - if it crashes then, you're back at the end of the line.

Have you tried cancelling your queue and immediately hopping back in? I guarantee you'll keep your spot

I did. And while it kept my spot like that, it does not if you get the 2002/4004 errors. And that's the problem, which has been clearly pointed out numerous times. Like I said, it's not working properly. It doesn't matter if it's keeping your spot if you cancel and immediately rejoin. 99.99% of people are not going to do that for any reason. No one is volunteering to get booted by the lobby error, which is where people are losing their spot in line.

One thing to note, though... I finally got in, but I noticed it went from 160 players in queue to getting in. So 159 or less players ahead of me got booted by the lobby error, because I've never seen any MMO process 150+ logins that quickly.

I don't know what the problem is, but I know it shouldn't exist to this extreme considering how long the MMO industry has been dealing with login issues.

This is complete and utter bs. Se was not prepared for early release and they certainly won't be prepared when the game launches proper on dec7. There was utterly no point in pre ordering the game. If they could not create servers then maybe they should rented some. Was at 3800 or something got down 2500 then lobby eroor boom kicked out and try to log back and more lobby errors. Fix your shit se. Stormblood nor shadow was this bad. We should be allow to wait no0t this constant barrage of 2002 errors.

I see someone has already forgotten Raubaun Savage. XD

It depends on the cause of the error.

When I first tried to log in yesterday I got the 2002 error and crashed to desktop when I was around 500 in queue. Got back in on the same character and the queue was 1700.

Got down to about 300 and crashed to desktop again and showed the 2002 error again.

Attempted to load up another character on another server is to see queue status there. She was at 2400 at the time. Cancel the queue immediately to see what the queue on the initial one was, get back in at place I had dropped. I made it into the game without another crash at this point.

For some of the issues that generate the 2002 the buffer system is appearing to work, but not for all of the reasons.

[jadan2000]

yeah this is extremely frustrating!!

That's not true in all cases. I've been waiting in queue for awhile, started around 3800, now at ~1200. I've been booted 3 times with 2002 and never lost my spot logging right back in.

[Selova]

Yeah happened here as well. Literally got to 1 in the queue, got the lobby error back to back 3 times, logged in on the 4th attempt to a 6k+ queue. Rip lol.

Yep, same, after getting booted from the queue about 10 times and surprisingly retaining my spot after battling Error 2002's every time I tried to get back in, I was there, #1 in queue...then... Error 4004, relog, and boom...#7511 in queue... FFS
