No, they won't. Not until the new hardware comes up this weekend.

Its funny people say this, cause there are many people on the forums stating they get into queues of 300+ people.

Also the queues are not legitimate. i dont believe that 300 people log off simultaniously at the exact same time to let you get through the queue and no one else in a different queue, if they did, there wouldnt be a problem here. So the queues are likely faulty, and producing incorrect line numbers. like the DMV! fun stuff.

All it is is a small piece of code. Putting your customers through this active process of trying to log in like this is not a good thing. I literally haven't been able to log in for 5 hours now.

At the very least they could have a server Pop so you know if you will be stuck in a damned queue or not even able to log in at all. I mean this is so stupid.

It's obviously not just an issue of a small piece of code for them or they would have done it. Contrary to the popular theory, they're not stupid.

I never said they were stupid, but yes it is a small piece of code. Ive worked on MMOrpgs before changing a queue number would literally be the same as adding a 0 at the end of a number in a line of code.

wouldnt the game also need to be not running in order for that to happen? you cant edit a file in use. they would have to bring down the game to do something that small. which we dont want them doing, since there are a lot more problems than a queue, and i dont want them stopping the game every 10 seconds either.

They do not have a functional or adequate queue. Their solution to overpopulation is to block character creation on certain worlds, thus preventing new players from playing with friends that were in v1.0 or that played in beta. They do not have a server capacity indicator to tell players how full they are.

These are basic, basic concepts for an MMO that are not working on a re-release of an MMO. This does not say good things about their general competence.
