Given that I’ve been queued for an hour starting at the < 1 minute popup, I thought you might need help with the whole hours/minutes/seconds thing.
cancel, try again, win
Oh I see, 8th time will be the one that works
Not after its multiplied by 1040%
Yeah, this minute obviously has 800% value.
Logged in 11 minutes early for WB. Or, tried to.
Spent almost 3 minutes queued Start Pending. Spent 3 minutes “less than 1 minute”.
Canceled, restarted. Went into “~1 minute”, then quickly changed to “~4 minutes”, then fairly quickly back to “1 minute left”. Then logged in, but missed WB anyway.
(Edit/correction: Missed the start of WB, but rode out there anyway just hoping. Apparently a lot of other people were queue-delayed as well because new folks arrived even after I did.)
I use to play WOW since back in 2008, and you could quickly contact an in game “game master” quite quickly, get fast frisky assistance when you need it. Press the 2023 date button, and now Game Masters are as elusive as the search for Big Foot. Technical support for the games has long multi-day waits, and generally non-personal responses. Blizzard charges AAA+ astronomical prices, and then wonder why people complain when the servers are frozen, throwing errors, and you can’t even get into the game to play solo without going through some meaningless online validation. Its crazy.
Its no wonder people are flocking to inexpensive indie games.
Blizzard has adopted the “Microsoft Min” which claims 1 min, but ends up being around 30.
