Login restrictions gotta go, make a real q system

[syntaxlies]

I spent 3 hours yesterday pressing x and refreshing my client to get in game. I would rather be stuck in queue for 3 hours with 3000 people in front of me then to have to go through what I did yesterday. This needs to be changed ASAP.

Oh, and I actually got in the q for times only to be kicked back out one of which I was 3rd in q.

Just create a proper queue system please

A proper queue system is dependent on ways to get people OFF the servers, which this game doesn't have. There are no AFK timers and people who log out are actively punished for it. There's a huge incentive to leave your character logged in all day, even when not playing.

I can't stay in more than an hour, if I do I get the 90k error

That doesn't have anything to do with the queue system itself though, does it? AFKers not being kicked from the servers is a problem, but it's a problem regardless of whether or not there's a queue.

The way it works right now, player A could try to get in the game for hours without success whereas player B could get in at the first try. I think it's safe to say that this "method" is less than optimal.

Do you think a queue where people wait in line for 5 hours with [only] like 400 players in front of them would be received any better than what they have now?

For any queue to be good, you need a way to actually move that queue along (by servicing the people at the front of the queue or who made it in, and then kicking them out to make room for more). Imagine this as a restaurant that let people loiter at the table for hours/days after they buy their one meal. There is no queue that would fix that restaurant.

Well, I'd like it better that people are standing in line based on arrival time instead of everyone trying to bumrush the locked door.

That's rotten luck then. I left my character logged in all day and I'm avoiding instances to not have to deal with queues or login restrictions. Haven't been booted yet.

Am I the only one who has seen a queue pop up? It happened late on Saturday had about 30ish people in queue. Sunday was weird though, It popped a queue waiting page, then disappeared to give me the 'this world is currently full' error.

Need queue system bad this is a MMO basic. But why don't they add more servers and more NA worlds to help. After you add worlds offer transfers

I wonder what SE is going to do for launch. Most people are in right now for EA, but what about those people coming in for launch date tomorrow? After buying the game, installing it and getting ready for amazement, they are presented with World is Full for 3hrs. They are going to be more pissed then we are now. Some may even try and take the game back and my legitimately be able to get a full refund after opening the game and giving a good explanation.
