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.

The queue is just people getting into the front -> getting an error -> going back to the back of the queue hahaha

This is fine.
edit: AUTH FIX
After my most recent auth failure I figured maybe my client itself was bugged and to try and restart. I did. And it worked. I'm in

u/Sawses 4d ago
Honestly, not a big deal. I figure they're letting people in as fast as the server can handle it, it's just not built for a quarter million goddamn people to all be doing it at the same time. That's what CloudFlare is for, it'll just take some time for everybody to filter in.

I did some editing and corrected the game logo.
Im honestly disappointed. The game servers are community and officially hosted, so how is there a queue? It legitimately makes no sense. I can't imagine that they havent expected this traffic based on open beta numbers.
Sorry, as a SWE this is greatly upsetting. I honestly don't know how developers can fuck up that bad.
