I mean I totally get it. And it sux.
But yea, it was an issue in every mmorpg in existence xD
And it’s the same here xD
Guess if you are a content creator and kiss up their rump, they will allow you to join the private servers setup just for them

Planning to play on a specific server ahead of time without knowing how long queues will be. In fairness, it sounds like AGS aren’t the only ones who didn’t learn from their mistakes 
I’m coordinating with a few people and seem to have found a server just fine, all we had to do was coordinate a time and then look at the best server to start on. Bit of a queue but in within about half an hour.

People have no grasp on reality when they are forced to wait on something.
You know they put them all on their own server to stop mass Qs into their server right? After all the backlash last time about streamer servers. Also they gave streamers keys for their viewers. Was probably the best way to filter their large communities into one place and away from the public. Did you have a better idea?

The people who are playing where up and waiting for the servers to go live and refreshing them till they could go in, like I did when the new zone launched.
get that not everyone can but this is the norm for MMO launches.
WOW just had massive queues on a recent launch.
FF14 does too when new stuff launches.
OW2 had queues
Cant say for Lost Ark.
But I think its fair to say this is common.
Quitting because of launch day queues? Lmfao bro 
you know you can play tomorrow too right?

Not even prime-time yet on US East and all but 1 FSS locked and they want me to wait in a 2K+ que…not. I called this last night in discord, that with so few FSS planned, it is like AGS is only expecting 15k players to try them, gunna be a clusterpuck.

the funny think is, there are only about 15 ppl who are crying in this forum. Everyone else seems more relaxed and knows queues from other games.

always fair to other players when some people get special privilege’s
Literally last launch people cried for streamers to get their own server to get them the hell off theirs and their followers away.
AGS literally gave them a server to themself (that will open up in 2 weeks) and keys for their followers to do exactly that.
Can’t win can they?

But they aren’t… They have only added 1 since 2pm Eastern US. And its immedately flooded and then population locked, like 90% (the remaining 10% have 700+ queues).
Idk man. EU seems to stabilize now. Maybe they wanna wait a day.
NA has some now with not too big queues (20m?)
So maybe they still wait. But yea, still inexcusable lol
Fresh Start only meant everyone starts at level 1, an uncorrupted economy, and no territory holds.
Queues were inevitable. You would think after a year they’d at least have a backup plan. Nope, once again its in the form of more servers to again be merged later. But I mean come on, FSS preachers were acting like this wasn’t going to happen. It was destiny.
More than likely it will be queue wars for a week or two, then solidify for the next few weeks, then part 2 of the chaos.
That post is full of FUD.
Please stop talking sense to the butthurt! It will only make the butthurt grow!

This is what Discord is for. We did it with 20+ and worked wonders. If you think that rushing onto the first opened server will let you play with friends login in several hours later, maybe it’s you that is not seeing the forrest through the trees.
I popped into the game, found a world that was not locked, waited in queue, created a character and started playing.
It seems to me that a simple solution to this would be to have the worlds listed a week ahead of time so that people can create their characters. A “Sign up” window basically.
