Try and re-logging, mine was 1900 a hour ago. Came back and its down to 598 and going down. Hope it doesn't make it worse for you.

We'll all catch up in a few days anyway. Just glad it's back up and pleased to see so many ppl playing

Logged in without a prob at countdown's end last night, server had to reboot and me to sleep a bit : come back this morning and cannot login with a queue which seem not to decrease, really ? ... 2328 players online, come on open slots guys =(

open up some slots!! so disappointed.. looked forward to this for a long time and can't even play!!!

I wonder how this queue is working... I'm now waiting since 1:21' to log in but considering the amount of players logged in as i clicked the button "play" and the one atm, i should already be logged in...

Explanation : i was 712 from 735 with 2327 players online. Now i'm 314 from 984 with only 1908 players online. I don't know the actual max cap, but by doing the maths : 2327 (let's say this is around the max cap ?) - 1908 = 419, so 314 ?? Something is weird there, or they did decreased again the max cap within the last hour.

EDIT : ok, Blue just posted on another thread and i was right, they lowered again the max cap grmbl.

Blue wrote:We had to lower the cap to about 2000 players logged in as the lags got worse. We are trying hard to identify the hot spots in the code to allow more players to login at once. Thank you for your understanding.

Sigh ... started on queue around 800/900 and made it all the way down to 2.
Went to launch and no activation

Not sure why, launched fine at 7pm GMT.

Now 572 on queue again but beds a calling.
Ah well, tomorrow is another day - or in this case tomorrow is today

You guys are thinking WAY too much into it. Its the first day of the relaunch and not just you but MANY peeps were looking forward to it. For you not to think this was going to happen is just dumb. Relax. Everything will be ok. This is a freeshard server that people put countless hours of work into for YOU to log into.. FOR FREE.
