Just logged in now 18min late and 32min queue. Doesn’t seem bad at all.
what about the thousands who don’t even have a QUE TIMER! staring at the “queued for login authentication pending” this happen last week and it took 24 hours!
my Queue is down to 2 minutes, fairing all goes well i’ll see you good folks in Sanctuary!.. or if you see me shambling in a corner by myself i may be weeping silent tears cause something has gone amiss
apologies, I’m a noob at forums, I meant to reply to my comment with the following.
its a couple posts down from my original.
A friend is already within character creation menu, while I have been dropped back to the queue for 35 minutes more …
ya but surprise surprise asmongold is on playing. Like i said im tired of this special treatment streamers get.
I kept closing the app and reopening it till i got a reasonable Q time. Went from 60 mins to 10… im sticking with that.
AFAIK he has a special login via blizzard he can access at times to skip queues.
I believe they gave it to him after the nightmare that was WoW Classic launch where he had 4 hour queues. I think Esfand has been seen to have an @ blizzard.com login when logging into betas and such.
Fun times.
And its Friday. Wonder how many of you called in sick.
Its called being an adult and having remote employment haha.
Yeah got on 15 min early, than got kicked randomly when I clicked on my second monitor odd none of the streamers I see ever seem to have issues but might just be bad luck.
53 min queue time then I got could not connect to server check network settings?
Sorry to tell you, but you could have entered the queue before 9. I did and was in the game at 9 (well, 11 my time).
If it makes you feel better, I had just gotten my necro to level 5 and got dumped from the game. I have another 11 minutes to wait in queue to get back in.
He did not get special treatment. I am in and playing too. I get nothing. I don’t stream. I don’t even have social media.
Some companies have that, Blizzard does not, as far as I know.
IF true, that would be a PR/media account, not their own account. Interesting.
So many years since online gaming is a thing, yet most companies fail on the server side; how much cost to contract 4x the expectations at launch and then go back to normal as things settle after the first week? I never really got it.
Alright guys, I have been in queue for an hour now! After I had finally left the queue to login, it has put me back and now I am stuck at 6 minutes…
Dont think this will encourage me to report any issues…
Do I now need to exit the game to get into queue for a next ridiculous hour?!
I think it’s just a classy move. Have people pay extra to play the beta, then have them sit in a queue for hours. I really love it. How can you not?
Timed out when I was in queue which made me wait another 55mins in queue.
69 minutes.
Nice. ![]()
I’m not mad. Blizzard went out of their way to warn about queue times repeatedly leading up to this 2nd beta, especially since this time everyone and their mom has access. It’s going to be hotter than last weekend; nobody even has to eat KFC to get in now.
Paaaaatience.
Just have to wait i guess. I have been on 21 min for the last 30 minutes now it jumped up to 49 minutes😄 so ill probably not get to play anytime soon.
