legendary and login queue

I understand that at times like these there will be the inevitable queue time. What I find perplexing is that the time waiting for legendary players is significantly longer than for premium players. I thought us subscribers were supposed to get priority , not just normally but in high volume log in times like this as well.

Don't you just love paying 15$ a month to wait 21:19 to just login.(sarcasm)

when i tried to log in it said i was 1456 in line and average wait time was 17 mins and ive been waiting for like a half hour. i hate that we cant get in even though we pay to play. i know the game is free but since i am paying i would like to be able to get in over a f2p. i dont feel entitled to anything because i pay, i am just saying.

The bars show how many people of that status are logging in at that moment, not how long their wait time is. Prem logs in after legendary, and free after premium. Although there is an obscene wait time clause, where if one of the lower levels is in a que for an obscene length of time they get bumped to the front.

Lol, mine, for legendary is at 1800 place in the queue....

Im in 416 place now...

Well, at least I've got time for the blackberrry brandy to get settled in before playing.

If you watch your Legendary queue, you see the numbers representing your place in line drop quckly.
If you watch a Free queue, you can stare at 37th place for a few minutes.

It's not the wait that I mind. It's that premiums and f2p are being filtered in at all while there is a half hour wait for subscribers. The only reason I still pay for this game is the supposed priority queue.

But my legendary estimated time is 21 minutes, Premium estimated wait time is 12 minutes, Free is 25.
Seems like premes are getting in with half the wait time.
Not sure how accurate but thats what it says.

If that were only the case. Unfortunately its not. It's lie or a sham. I have a premium friend who was on a full 20 minutes before I got in today, and spent half the time in line that I have on the past 3 occasions that this has happened. Don't believe everything they tell you.......

Lol really? The only reason you pay is for the priority queue?

Actually most of you guys are all wrong. FTP is longer on the que screen most of the time. Only during high login hours are legendary que time is longer. This is coming from someone who has been on both sides of the spectrum. FTP ALWAYS has a login que. an average of 3 min. Legendary only get login ques when everyone seems to be loging in at the same time, by everyone I mean alot of legendary members. FTP players are less concentrated in there que times because most of the time they aren't aware when exactly the world is up. Legendaries generally like to be up-to-date

I'm just regurgitating what I think Mepps said on the old PS3 forums, & I'm too lazy to go find said quote.

my understanding of the how the queue system is SUPPOSED to work is that the last legendary members get in line directly in front of first premium members and the last premium members are suppose to get in line directly in front of the free players. When I see that premium has a shorter average wait it makes me scratch my head. If a legendary player is entering the queue they should be P1-1 in line and if a premium is getting in line they should be F1-1. The queue times should reflect this (i.e. legendary should be shorter than premium, should be shorter than f2p). Can Mepps or someone explain why this isn't what appears on my screen? I thought this was how the queues were explained when the access levels were rolled out.

There are probably ratios.
For every 100 Subscribers, 10 Fremiums and 1 Free get to move up a space. [hypothetical]
The problem is, there are thousands of Subnscribers trying to get on at once. If there are 1000 Subscribers, the 50 Fremiums waiting will get in before all the Subscribers (500 Subs = 50 Prem).


[edit] or maybe it's 100:2

I'm just saying, I have been real time talking with my premium friend on these occasions trying to load up at the exact same time, and he is always on in half the time it takes for me to get on.

Hmmm that's funny because as a premium I never wait more than 12 seconds to log on.

Thanks for the quick response senior Mepps, its appreciated.
