Server queues

Postby Lyion » Tue Nov 23, 2004 11:17 pm

I'm hearing a lot of negativity about server queues. I played for a few hours today and didn't have an issue.

Anyone else seeing these?

Still not fixed? Weak... You'd think considering that was one of the biggest problems people were complaining about and they dropped OB servers with ample time to fix things before release, that it'd be taken care of...

Yeah it does suck but people (me included) choose not to read the news things Blizzard put out.

What they're doing is actually very smart. They put server queues on servers that are overloaded so it makes people want to play on the lesser crowded servers. They said they're only going to use the queue in the first month or so, so that servers will get more evened out.

I have only been in queue once - and that was during beta. I had zero server side lag yesterday - in 12 hours of play. Maybe I got lucky and picked a good server.

Same here, I played from about 4pm to 11 and had no lag. People said it started to lag bad right after I logged off though :dunno:

I was pretty happy with the launch day...went much much smoother than I expected it to. I was expecting to be on the message board than in the game.

I had connection problems due to Comcast for a couple of hours - but the Blizzard side was solid. I was quite surprised (if not annoyed with Comcast).

I did hear some griping later on in the night that there were some queues, but overall i thought it went pretty well

I'll just put some cliches here and everyone will be happy.
