If Faeblight is slammed, I'm rolling someplace else with 3 friends.  Just want a med pop server.  I'm fine with turning chat off.

All servers are slammed.

That won't be the case forever.  I may just wait to roll when they open the second batch of servers.  I'm in no rush to get to the endgame.

Urgh. Position in Queue: 78 - nearly there now.

Though I still haven't managed to make up my mind whether I want to play as a Guardian or Defiant.

Not sure what server caps are set at, but 33+ servers full with multiple-hour queues on pre-launch is pretty amazing. If nothing else, they made some nice box sales. I hope the queue calm down and they don't create too many low population servers. It's a lot more fun when Warfronts pop quickly and there are lots of folks to run dungeons and rifts with.

4.45 hour queue, but I'll be on faeblight then.  Guess I can do some schoolwork until then.

Hah, 4 hour queue. I'll wait and make something later.

edit: so does this go down as a GOOD launch due to no apparent crashing all over the place, or a bad launch due to 4 hour queues on every server?

Depends. Do you count the vanilla WoW launch as good or bad?  Ohhhhh, I see.

I think a good launch means that everyone can click the PLAY button and actually play.  Waiting 4h is not playing.

By that definition there is no good launch, ever.

Server was just reset for "tweaks" as they called it. I think they just bumped everyone who got in first off to allow others to play.  why so serious?

Public group/rift things are pretty cool... chaos personified right now since there were so many in the raids but having no idea wtf I was doing was good fun.

Someone wrote that occasional mouse movement/interaction (say every 30 minutes) may prevent those disconnects while you are in the queue. I have not been able to verify this as I've been at work, but figured I'd pass it along in case it helps.

I got disconnected a few times while in the queue, but was able to reconnect and appear in the same spot in the queue as before. NA servers are now down for ~15 minutes (10 of those done already) for "server maintenance", btw.

People are gonna be scattered due to the queues, it's inevitable.

I'm sticking with Greybriar ATM, just hit level 11.

Full as well. Funny.. I logged to go eat and have a smoke and take a dump - log back and boom - 5h queue. Pick another server, Sun-whatever-morfiend... 5 hours... every server is slammed. So i am now going to hit whatever new server pops up in the mean time to try out a few things.  ACK!

Did not anticipate large server queues.  Heh.  Definitely throws a wrench into everything.

Guess we'll all be scattered to the winds again.  awesome, for real

Whenever new servers are announced, can someone hit me up on Steam?

I'll pick a server and we'll go to town on it.

They've added around 15 new servers since launch at 10 AM. There are servers with no queue right now. Hop on and play.
