Milkncookiez 0 Report post Posted January 12, 2017 So, if at times (peak hours) the population reaches 11-12k and there's a queue of 6k+, why is there a queue of 6k+ now (1 PM at CET) with only 8k population? From these numbers it seems to me that the cap is 12k, so with population 8k, the queue should be 2k only, atm, or should I throw my engineering degree out the window? :D 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Suprfli6 3 Report post Posted January 12, 2017 Because people are idling at the character select screen while they work/sleep/etc so they can immediately jump back into the game rather than wait through the queue. There was a fix implemented to prevent this but apparently it isn't working. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They'll never create a better fix than terrorizing cheaters into playing fair with massive waves of bans. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

After around half an hour, you were completely disconnected from the server. They implemented this two days ago when there were ~7k online and a 10k+ queue and it caused a much smaller and faster queue. But for some reason it apparently is no longer enabled. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
