… i was gonna post something here - but i was stuck in line to do so and now will start over after i Fail to type a message that gets through to you.
ive been with you since 95 blizzard— what blizzard are you doing…
Bots still get to attempt 100 times more mf games per 4k wait in line for our 1 this is the sorry state you put us in, f’in pathetic.
GMs must be in with the people running Annis. The only reason they wouldn’t want to restart is because it kicks those people from holding their games.
Except for you can edit the bots to wait as long as you want them to…
WaitInLineTimeout: 600, // Seconds to wait before cancelling the ‘Waiting in Line…’ screen*
So no, this is not an “antibot” measure… not to mention most of the bots and shops COME from blizzard or past blizzard employees… you would think with a 20 year old game they could easily prevent the botting? Or at least stop most of it?
Alot of people say that botting is actually saving this game more than destroying it. Allows people to trade for items that would usually take the whole season to find…
Either way these wait times need to stop. I’m tired of waiting 10 mins in between games… lame af
I am also currently experiencing long queue times for creating ladder games, blizzard can you please address this issue?
Figured I’d bump AGAIN. Should have went to USWest! If this keeps up that is where I’ll be heading! Pretty sad Blizzard cant fix a 20 yr old game let alone address the issue… instead ignore your loyal fans that have been playing this game since they were children
I want refund , the game is unplayable !
You win blizzard. I quit. Good job. Good thing I have fond memories of this game and can easily forget this season. Why you chose to do this to d2 is beyond me but certainly not giving me hope for d2 remaster considering how you butchered the last one. I am looking forward to POE ladder reset on the 19th. They probably will at least address issues on launch and fix them gradually.
Blizzard really needs to be more transparent on what techs are up to about addressing these issues, but acting like a child doesnt really do anything but make you look bad. Instead of the self pity lets hold BLIZZARD accountable for their actions and get them to fix something. I’m going to try to contact Rhykker and have him put this in one of his news videos for the week to shed some light on it.
US-East status update: Queue 4076
I don’t see many acting like children but… I do see a decent bit of people upset about a game not working.
This wouldn’t happen if Blizzard North were still around.
USwest is reportedly getting Queues now as well. Only at 50 right now apparently. But still… this is wild
USeast is already back up to 1000+ Queue line
gg best 2 games making before it hit ques again
I read on the forums that it was restarted “yay no lines…” I go online to check already 1.5K queue
RIP
Really frustrating trying to play a game that has been part of my life for 20 years. Maybe getting to create a handful of games per night before having to log off and attend to real life duties. I have never seen queues like this on a reset and have been through nearly every single one of them. So incredibly frustrating from a company that I have literally spent thousands of dollars on over the years from game to game.
back at 1.6k que lines… within 30 minutes or so
US-East status update: Queue 5747
14 minutes later: No queue.
45 minutes later: Still no queue.
1 hour later: Queue 140
1 hour 15 minutes later: Queue 375
Seeing a long delay on “Connecting to the fastest server…”
I’m also seeing a significant delay after account sign in to where I can select my character. I see a “Please wait” box followed by “Connecting…” in the character selection field.
1 hour 30 minutes later: Queue 807
Still a delay on “Connecting to the fastest server…”
No delay on character selection this time.
1 hour 45 minutes later: Queue 873
No other delays.
2 hours later: Queue 1461
Delay on “Connecting to the fastest server…”
I think this is enough feedback, so I’m stopping. Since the queues are rising up again, it’s clear that whatever has been tried so far is not working to solve the problem.
It looks like bot games are still present, so a ban wave wasn’t part of this fix. I expect the queue to return.
queues are back, whatever you guys did only worked for a hour
Is this “realm down” to fix the queues? Any idea how long it will last? I’m cautiously optimistic.
