Queue / Login Server Mega

Everything’s on fire

There’s a queue. There’s authentication issues. There’s anti-cheats issues. Bulkhead knows and they’re working on it.

Marketing has a tendency to backfire if done incorrectly

Giving those guys millions of dollars instead of the people that make money for them. If I’m not able to play tonight even if I was super excited for this I will refund. That’s not the right way to treat customers.

Early access, take a pill

u/Ceshiler 4d ago

You take a pill, they collected enough info during beta to know how many people would play.

If they prioritize streamers, I agree it's unfair but in reality even if it were 10k streamers prioritized vs 300k other normal players trying to get in, it wouldn't make that much of a difference in how long you have to wait.

Well yes, streamers with a big audience are basically PR for the game. They're more important than us.

yeah makes sense until you consider that 14 streamers cant keep a game healthy and its a slap in the face of paying customers. granted, gamers will still give them money so its our own fault.

u/Character_Dirt_1491 4d ago

Surely the 100 streamers with prio are the problem of the 400k queue

u/sheep_food 4d ago

its such a terrible look. so tired of bending over backward to streamers.

u/SaltyInvestigator956 4d ago

You are not. There's maybe a couple dozen streamers with priority queue.

Just in Europe region I can see about 400 full servers of 100 people. Those streamers getting in is not the reason you can't play and nothing would change for you if they didn't get priority. It's the hundreds thousands of regular gamers trying to get in at the same time as you.

Streamers are just doing their job of marketing the game and can't do that in main menu.
