The waiting times are horrible for any working adult

If you are not a streamer and you work a full time job of 45+ hours a week you shouldn't be trying to invest time into an MMO. Especially if you have kids..



PRIORITIES

Your name is fitting, maybe let adults make their own decisions instead of telling them what they should do?

You can quit blaming it on the chip shortage this game has been around a lot longer than this chip shortage has and every expansion has had the same problem long queue times. So maybe SE should took the hint and ugrade there servers and added more data centers during the Heavensward time to prepaired for future expansions.

Amazon pretty clearly has the capacity to host at least 800k more players on the servers that were running new world, since theyve lost 90% of their player base. Maybe SE should give them a call and they could work something out ALA Sony/Marvel.

This is not good enough, this is a multi-billion dollar company. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. FIX THE SERVERS.

Made up crap on this thread.

1. SE not wanting to pay higher prices. Wrong they said they are willing too.

2. Getting timed out of q after 15 minutes. Wrong I was in que for close 30 mintues one night prior to log in sever fixes. And was in q for 20 min last night.

3. The servers and hard your non million dollar business uses it not what SE uses. Depending on what they are looking for it may not be easy to come by. Unless you know by some magical means what they are looking for which no one does

Don't be silly, they're obviously twirling their mustaches and laughing at us.

Handle bar mustaches no less

None of the previous expansion had this bad of an issue and they passed extremely quickly. Hell SHB I don't remember a single queue depsite being on one of the most active NA servers outside of the confirmed DDoS attack during EA. The chip shortage has been around since FFXIV got the unprecedented population boost that nearly doubled their player base, that the devs never saw coming.

Ah yes... Pretty sure New World had some pretty major server issues, not to mention AWS have server outages for a couple days recently. Not a good idea

Yes and they are competing against other billion and trillion dollar companies. Just throwing money at something doesn't make it exist.

Cute kid, I am an adult I work a full time job. Maybe grow the hell up and stop sucking on mommy and daddy's paychecks. Get a job then you can complain/reply to me.

Ah yes, you are the picture of adulthood and maturity. Teach us your ways, O wise one. How else should we not spend our time if we have jobs or kids? May we watch movies? Is it acceptable, perchance, to read a book? I almost dread to ask it, but- do you think I might be permitted to play a single player RPG?

Teach us, Great Sage, our guiding light....

If he's a kid then you should really try and act more like an adult with how you're speaking with him.
Would hate to have my kids around you, Jesus Christ. This queue nonsense has gotten everyone irritable lol!

Heh, thought of engaging after his "brilliantly witty" retort to me, but I keep forgetting he's a very angry internet stranger and it would go nowhere.
