Free character transfers aren't enough, because you never know who will go with you and who won't. Fix the problem, cluster your servers right, re-distribute your network, and stop making excuses. Also, frickin' update how new players are assigned to servers.
I also voice in my concern reagrding the lag and gm told me he cant help me :) and i e-mail them and they say ur area is not in our concern :) . Farking i feel like cheated by Blizzard and i demand a refund for my reload .
After suffering from this many times, i agree. When i want to play, the server should be up and no lag. I understand maintenance, but not out of maintenance times.
I don't claim to know a lot about the technology that makes WOW possible. I was waiting for over an hour last night and couldn't get into the game. What kills me is that I am on a server that Blizz assigned to me. You would think that if they assigned you the server, then as a new subscriber, that server would be able to accomodate the volume for a reasonable period of time. Not so. I imagaine that if Blizzard actually sees this petition, they will spew a lot of technical mumbo-jumbo about how they can't do anything about it. I have a hard time believing that there is nothing that can be done to support your existing customer base. Oh well. Just my 2 cents.
Yeah I also agree "the customer is always right". Blizz should fine a solution. I decided to see what others thought when I just got hit with queue problems myself. I waited 20mins to get on. Then forget to plug my laptop power cord in and once returning from hibernation I'm greeted with another 30 min queue. Do something blizz plz.
Luv the game hate queuing, Do i shell out £8.99 each month when my free trial is over?, and have to wait to play most of the time, or should i try another mmorpg??,Or will they get this fixed eventually???
Come on Blizzard you can see what we all wont! No Queus, I didnt sat anything about queus on the box when i bought it, Be fare.
Explain this, i went from position 20 then to 5... then to 26! whats the meaning of this? Do away with queues to servers, if i buy a game i want to play it when i want! Especially when i pay monthly to play the game. Other MMORPG's dont have this problem.
I think blizzard needs to stop buying yachts and do somethign for the money we give them...like create new server's for less lag??? This pettion should go through wow and be signed by everyone!
I find it funny that you need to petition a company to play a game and have fun. Go outside! You guys spend your time waiting in front of a computer while you pay the company, and your landlord, and your electric company. You are all slaves.
What I don't understand is...If I'm 84 in queue how can I jump back to 95 and over? How is this shit even working? And then you get disconnected because of lag an you can have fun being in queue again for hours. Good job. Idiots.
P.S. The idiot who said we're all retards is the actual retard. If we choose a wrong server that's one thing but when the recommended server is heavily populated and is not even in your time zone there's a problem so why don't you just shut the fuck up yourself dumbass.
I downloaded the trial a few days ago and what I've done the most is waiting in queue for hours. I used the recommended realm which is not even in my time zone. The game itself is fun but having to wait in queue for hours before I can play doesn't encourage me to register monthly. At least if you could export your character to another realm but no. It is already a waste of time that to play video games even though I love them :P but waiting to play a video game is even worse. Blizzard should seriously do about it. If you bought that product you have to right to use it wherever and whenever you want.
I've been waiting for 50 minutes to join on a server that 10 days ago was "new" and I was recommended to try that one as I am a new customer. I watch the queue that I'm in get LARGER somehoe and the time I have to wait to access my character and the world I'm on get LONGER. I'm very unimpressed.
Queues are a problem, especially when you can't choose the server you play on, which would definately help in distributing levels of players in all servers and keep things on a lower tone. I wholeheartedly support this.
I support this petition.
Bliz, I like ya, but this is horrid. I pay for my 5 kids to play this game - and your "issues" with login servers, authentification is denying the service I pay for, and I pay you a lot.
If you want less populated servers take a lesson from EQ and let the people move their characters for a fee = unless it's your fault they can't play there (which is currently the situation).
This is an mmporg, the children, and adults want to be with their friends.
I support this petition.
Friends make up the best part of MMO's open the character migration, and I think blizzard will illiviate a bulk of the problem
I support this petition.
Honestly, why would I want to play a character on a server where my friends are not? It *is* a multiplayer game, right?
You want to know what might fix the problem better than blaming the paying customers, Blizzard? Allow us to move the characters we've invested time in to these light servers. Or, hell, do your job and fix the load queueing.
I support this petition!! It would be nice if people would quit making thier accounts on FULL servers and try using some of the new ones, but the lag IS gettin REDICULOUS!! I get kicked off every 10 minutes and the more I play, the worse it gets and harder to control. FIX YOUR GAME BLIZZARD!
Amen to this petition. And while your at it Bliz take the ball out of the Gankers court on PVP servers to. Every player that ganks is another player not participating in combat.
I 100% support this petition. This game is drug when you can't play you start shaking. When I pay for a dose I want it right away not in 4 hours this is unaceptable I don't want a life I wanna play!
I support this petition! This problem would be so easy to fix if WoW used a central login server so you can logon into any world with the same characters!!
As for blizzard "cheaping out" You have no fucking clue as to how complicated, how much money it costs, and how hard game developers work on games like these, and theyg et bashed constantly by people like you. Blizzard is one of the most respected gaming companies around, who put alot of time/thought/MONEY into making their games. They do only wat is humanely possible.
You guys are so freaking stupid, i wish blizzard would let you in, just so you can see the fucking game rash multiple times, and have lag where you cant move for 1 hour at a time. You are all douchebags that agree to this the queue is there to keep the servers fom not crashing on release and lagging horribly. This is one of the best concepts to mmorpgs yet. if you dont like it quit. And if you read the contract you agreed to, part 12 E. I. F. it states that you pay for the game, and any period of time you cannot play is acceptable. As they try to make the game better. Think more fucktards.
Why you're right Captain Ron! To whoever wrote asking to hear a better idea then queues: Perhaps putting more money into the server hardware on the more populated servers might do it.
Get to a diferent server. Blizzard as gave you much more server that normaly MMORPG normaly have! And for those that complaned about paying, just jump from a brige.
If you guys have a better idea then queues, i'd like to hear it, although I really wouldn't mind a grace period where I can log on without queue within a few minutes after I disconnect.
I have now been waiting for 3.5 hours with still an estimated time to wait fluctuating from 250mins to over 300mins left to wait. Since I can't post on the blizzard forums due to lag apparently with the posting...I'll say something here. Overe 3 hours...I didn't bitch at 30mins, at an 1hr, at 2 hrs, but at 3hrs with more than 3 hours left to wait...Something had to be said.
I couldn't agree more. This is unacceptable, period. How is anyone supposed to play with their friends/guild when EVERY PVP SERVER IN ALL TIME ZONES HAS A 30+ MINUTE WAIT?
If you were smart you would accept these Server Queues.. they are just there to try to get people to even out servers and keep the newbie lands so full. Its a sad day that retards like you are allowed to play games that take understanding.
