Another simple fix for the queue nightmare; open sub-only server(s).
Bonus option: Open a sub-only server for $25 a month with all F2P aspects of the game removed.
Thanks Trion, and you’re welcome.

Get in queue! I am at 200 now! I don thave to work for HOURS i am pumped. Get in there son
You won’t remember all this in 4 months I guarantee
Because I’ll have quit due to queue rage? :)
(Also WoW had queue problems on certain servers for that long, so you never know)
only that in wow you had to buy the game and subscribe…if Archeage was like this, trust me you wouldn’t have a single server with que because is just another ffa pvp Asian game
I’ve been in queue for 4 hours, I assume you’ve subbed? Is it worth the wait?
When I first joined as a free player I had 3000+ queues, but since subbing a couple days ago I’ve never had to wait to log in. Are you guys saying you are getting long queues even as subscribers?
As a patron my queue averages about 3 hours on Tahyang.
3k+ queue as a patron on Ollo during primetime.
I’m on the same server and having the same issue. Sunday later afternoon the queue was over 2000+. I would pay to play on the server type suggested.
Is it possible the queue actually helps the game?
I mean – the longer you wait for something, the better it seems to be, as you want that wait to have been worth it.
Also the main press right now is how the game is apparently sooooo awesome people are waiting hours and hours to get in.
I would look up the relevant psychological and marketing links but I’m on my phone.
‘Cognitive dissonance’. If you invest heavily in something then you will justify it; i.e. “I waited ages but it was worth it, [it has to be] (this part is implicit)”.
The business model is absolutely everything that is wrong the genre at present; it’s the worst kind of capitalism. Not to mention having to queue for hours even when paying a sub. What a joke.
I’m keeping my distance.
Good thing he specified no lube, otherwise Scott was getting off easy.
Also I suspect that comment was made by a DF player, sounds familiar.
All of this is a VERY catch 22, Trion can not put in more servers in place because how on earth will they EVER merge this ? The houses are in the open world, what if another player is already on the spot on the other server?
So there is this real risk that in 3 months, servers are dead, houses are empty and the illusive “critical mass” of players are now missing.
They will not be able to merge, they will have to force players to “transfer” by somehow packing up their houses and potentially having to start anew….
