Further to my previous post, I’m now waiting for the privilege of getting into the queue.

Because there isn’t a queue for entering the queue, it means pressing a button every so often to try again. If you don’t do that, the game eventually exits.

I think the word is: ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

If you want something said, let someone say it. If you want something said good, let Melmoth say it.

Except for the fact all the servers are absolutely full. You know, besides that fact the servers are empty…..

Oh dear, Melmoth :-(

I can empathise, as appropriately enough, I’m writing this to pass the time while I wait to be able to log in to Aion.

I’m really impressed by the game so far, but there’s no doubt the queueing situation is far from ideal, and really needs to be sorted.

(Incidentally, my anti-spam word is “fump”, which, according to the Urban Dictionary, means something quite disturbing: http://is.gd/3HxtX).

Man, NCSoft is missing a golden PR opportunity here. They should have the producer saying things like, "We're happy to see that we have a lot of eager players queuing up for our game like WoW did at launch." On the other hand, it's still funny how people have complaints now, but how it eventually doesn't matter. When was the last time you thought about the then-infamous Wow Queue Dance? Somehow, games seem to a recover well from being perhaps a bit too popular.

My client just crashed and now the login server seems to be unreachable, as well as the EU website.

To be somewhat fair, I’ve never seen MMO servers as busy as this. Hundreds and hundreds of players in every zone, and multiple channels per zone. I don’t know how many players each server supports, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it is in the tens of thousands.
