Position in queue not moving

General Discussion
1

So I’m position 308 in the queue and I have a small time to play today and it’s not moved in 10 minutes. Does the number actually move because honestly have an hour to play and if it’s gonna take an hour to log on this is ridiculous

I logged in to position 345, sat there for about 30 minutes and nothing changed. Basically if you don’t beat everyone else to the punch you’re screwed. I would love to play the game I bought on switch and pc…but blizzard can’t prepare for any release. They are this weird combination…they have released my favorite and some of the best quality games I’ve ever played, but they are the worst when it comes to releases, this might be why I stopped playing pc for about 10 years, tired of bs releases.

The queue counter does not update in real time. I went from 190, to 80 to IN. They mention it in the patchnotes.

We should note that the higher your queue number appears, the slower the number will refresh in the prompt. The number is still refreshing in the background, so we do not recommend leaving queue as this will create further delays to you entering the game during these high traffic windows.

This queue thing is a joke and should of never been allowed/implemented.

The game is probably locked up. Has been happening to me all morning.

Really 30 minute queue to get into a game which crashes for me randomly after 30-45 min of playing? This seems very off. I’ve never seen this kind of queue time in D3.

Would you prefer the servers/database crashing every day for 4-5 hours instead? Nobody plays at all then. That happened every day from last Saturday to this Friday. Today we have a queue instead of a crash.

You can read about what is going on with the Database architecture and issues if you wish. While they work on that, there is a queue.

If you really prefer they take away the queue and go back to server down, I guess they could do that.

I just spend 30 minutes at 300 in queue to get to the character screen and NOW it says I’m 345 in line again AT the character screen. WTH Blizzard???

The only time I have seen it is when we have a new PTR patch. The PTR is Global and everyone who wants in has to use that same one. Queues can be hours and hours long up in the thousands of players on those days.

Live game though, no. D3 does not have queues. It also has separate Regions instead of a Global database/save structure. Saves are totally separate between Regions on diff databases.

I feel like Bliz could monetize this and sell “Fast Passes” to jump the queue for $39.99/month or something!

I am in a queue and it does update for me. I started at 147 and it has now updated to 70 in about 5mins.

the servers are probably at capacity and more than half could be bots. who knows.
