Actually youā€™re wrong. When classic WoW came out, it was laggy as hell and super bad. Took over a week to get things fixed.

Its been over a week now

Came back to D2 after 10 yrs for the anniversary to complete Shat show How could blizzard not expect a rise in users after a ladder reset and Anniversary. Deploy some new servers or re-allocate Servers from D3 nobody plays that.

At least they freed our cdkeys. Also Classic wow and d3 on release all had issues. Classic ques were way worse and d3 had its problems for sure. The reason I think it makes people more agitated isā€¦ its not a new game. Its not a new release. Its something that has always worked before and when theres a que to play a game where the que takes longer than the game youre inā€¦ its not fun. Glad I can play but still would prefer to play without the Blizzard nonsense. Also realm down, can you just nip that as well while you are dealing with the games issues? It doesnā€™t deter bots. We can all see that. It deters farming meph/pindle countless times. Which early on in the ladder would be nice to just rinse/repeat and not get a temp ban for playing too fast.

7 minute queue times wow

not a word from a blue on this matter for 7 days. a full week without so much as a word of hope. I didnā€™t realize we were lowering d2 into its final resting place for the 20th anniversary ladder reset. sad. I guess its back to private servers where they actually listen to their community and try to give them a good experience.

Multi-billion dollar company is unable to fix the issue for weeks now.
Blizzard, or shall I call you Activision Blizzard, we know this is done to lower the amount of people botting and we appreciate that and yet, Iā€™m sure you set the queues manually instead of publicly announcing that itā€™s an actual issue.
Itā€™s relatively easy - push a new patch, bots will be gone for a while but you canā€™t keep the queue up for more than a week with the top programmers and budget you have, ruining the whole ladder reset and D2 anniversary.

another day, still 3k+ queues

USEAST Ladder. Wait 5 minutes to create a gameā€¦ Fail to createā€¦ wait 10 minutesā€¦ Wait 5 minutes to create a gameā€¦ Fail to createā€¦ Wait 10 minsā€¦ Wait 5 minutes to create a gameā€¦ finally get in a gameā€¦ rinse and repeatā€¦ at that point it feels like a waste of time to even try lol. Hopefully something can be done soon. It would be nice to be able to play towards the beginning of the ladder reset and not after the economy has been completely ruined. seems strange that most all complaints about this are on useast ladder

We shouldnā€™t be forced to wait because of an abundance of botters. Itā€™s really disappointing that this isnā€™t getting resolved. We shouldnā€™t be forced to wait in queues, nor should we be have to rely on buying another cdkey in order to avoid queue times by having one account created while i play in the other game.

Thanks for a great game but, itā€™s extremely unfortunate to see this as the outcome.

Can someone from Blizz post a reply in the official thread? There was no repsonse, only closed topics redirecting us here but no answer for the issue

I think USEast is going down the tubes just like the Asia server. Blizzard still hasnā€™t done anything with the Asia server either despite a huge thread about it. Blizzards replies are along the lines of ā€œWeā€™re aware of the problem, itā€™s something weā€™re working onā€¦ā€ but nothing ever gets fixed.

Iā€™ve seen reports that the same is also happening on the EU server.

Based on the fact that the Asia server is still having problems after all of this time, donā€™t get your hopes up on this problem being fixed anytime soonā€¦ US-West is probably next.

It feels like weā€™re being snuffed out.

Bump for fixesā€¦ change will comeā€¦ probably not tho lol

So we all want this fixed by blizzard and we only have one remedy and thatā€™s to collective report the problems here in one topic.

If you are having long queue times creating games in Ladder then post here simply copy and paste this statement below.
