Content creator priority que

I won’t mention names but, but I have a content creator pulled up in the background. I was in the actual que for 5 minutes before they even hit play. They’re now loading in and I still have 11 minutes remaining. If you’re going to do this why not include Ultimate Edition buyers.

??? if that was true there probably wouldn’t be 100k+ people watching loading screens via twitch right now.

What? i’m not a streamer and there was no queue for me

I have PLENTY of friends in game online right now. It doesn’t affect everyone, depending on your network routing.

don’t jump to assumptions… I’m not a content creator by any means, and my friend was in queue already waiting, I log in, and get in the queue well after he does, and somehow I jumped ahead of him and was logged in before he did. The servers are just busted atm

Blizzard does not have a priority queue. I could curse whatever game company set this expectation. It has screwed over every other game company that does not have special servers or special queues.

Logins are all over the place right now. Some people did not get DCed and are still playing. Many are in queues and getting in seems random. The timer is not accurate, esp when compared to random other people who may not even be logging in through the same Regional gateway.

Ok content creator or not, there is definitely a priority. Maybe it’s your network routing, maybe it’s your geographical location, maybe you’re a content creator. It doesn’t matter a que to get should be a que to get in. Similar to any waiting line in any situation unless… you pay more to skip.

Sorry, but Blizzard does not do that. Don’t give the suits ideas.

i watched shroud leave game and reopen it then get in no problem while i was in queue before him.

you might be onto something lol

and you respond by saying

I don’t get humans…

not a content creator. no queue. not sure where you live but maybe thats an issue.

Cheetah is not a Blizzard employee, she doesn’t know what she doesn’t know.

I wouldn’t put anything past Blizzard. I mean for crying out loud, they’ve plugged on Twitter known BOTTERS “go watch them!!!”.

Highly likely. They are not putting everyone on one datacenter in one location. It is spread out and there is more than one login server.

There is definitely a priority, intentional or not. Until you show me login server logs ill continue to believe it as I literally just watched the screen capture of it to make sure I wasn’t delusional.

So all the other people who got in before you are streamers too? I think you know that is not logical. They also could not pay extra to get in faster in the queue right now. Early Access was a set of dates, not a spot in line.

I have 3 people on my friends list now in game. None are streamers, content creators, or anything else. One I know is ANZ. The other two I think are US based.

If you can go ahead and read my response that said it could be your geographical location, ISP, network routing, etc… Maybe its not strictly content creator

definitely is a strong word. when there is people that are not streamers telling you they don’t have a queue.

get a grip dude. you got trash internet.

That is not a fair statement either. This is not on him. There are actually login issues right now impacting a wide group of folks.

I’m on 1g up/down direct fiber? There isn’t much better out there right now honestly.

by the way, did anyone find out what that update was about?
