Noticed the second “Queued” system seems to favor some rather than others.
This has happened to me twice now and playing with two friends. My queue in both dc times has been shorter than theirs, yet my friends get ingame before I have. In this case they’ve been on way longer.
Currently finished my 83 min wait, and been stuck on the second queue “Queued” for 30 mins now. Both friends got stuck on that screen for 3-4 mins.
Will add all 3 of us are console PS5. The only difference from me and them is im set up in Wales, and they’re based in the UK.
My internet speed is slightly slower than theirs, but that shouldn’t boot me to the bottom of the priority pile for that, as I’ve been waiting long enough.
Same with me. I got in after short queue at Noon. It crashed and deleted my character. Been in queue since. 112 min which i ended when timer went away and didnt let me in 30 min later. Next wait was 92 min and then timer is ended again. Been waiting since watching a streamer on PC who got in immediately after timer.
It seems to prioritise internet speeds from what im seeing, 50 mins now on second queue (80 on first) it’s still not letting me in or giving me an error message…
Will keep posting until it gives me one or the other, atm this is the new record for second queue.
It has nothing to do with internet speeds. I have a 1 Gig connection and I was in queue for 78 minutes only to get a login error and then get booted back into another queue for 75 minutes. It maybe has something to do with distance to servers but who knows. This is Blizzard we’re talking about.
I got in at noon Eastern Time and played for 15 minutes. Once I got kicked out I had a 43-minute queue and I have been long since past that and now all it says is “queued” for almost 5 hours now. Has anyone figured out what’s going on? The whole reason I pre purchased was so that way I could actually play the beta not watch a screen endlessly.
Got in after 5 mins in queue at beginning. Played about 3 hours including ~20 mins in character creation. Game didn’t allow me to progress so I logged out to queue. Had to wait maybe 40 mins before got back in. Played about 1 hour without problems.
I have had 3 dc’s now… one 53 min queue one 72 min queue and a 62 min queue… its getting pretty irritating. I understand queues but the constant random dc to another long queue is annoying AF.
I also want to add that my wife was able to idle for about 35min while she decided to go to the store for more snacks (lol there is a reason I married her :P) and yet she has still only been disconnected just the one time and only for 17min.
Lmao fair play to her.
Seriously, I think there’s some sort of prioritisation going on, as in theory, I should have been able to join the game by now. Other than location, there’s nothing different to me and my friends.
Maybe a Streamer has taken my spot, and I’ve gotta wait till he leaves to join lol
