Seriously, 7 minutes for membership, and almost 20 minutes for premium?

I saw that 2 days ago, i am premium and i was #683 in the waiting list.. i was amazed lol.

Is it just me or is it a total lagfest tonight?

It was noted earlier in the week that Legendary players were waiting longer than Premium players. Was that due to the issues with there being more Legendary members because some players were erroneously given that status? Or have there been adjustments to how the queue works?

Tonight, it seemed that Free to Play players had less of a wait time than Premium players because there were more Premium players than Free to Play players.

I'm fine with whatever the process is, whether it's based on population for each of the three sets of players, but some clarification about how the queue works might help alleviate some of the concerns players have.

I'm in the vault right now and I'm not lagging.

where has anybody said that? do you even play the game anymore or just talk down to people on the forums and in lfg hero side?

Fairly sure the pop cap would be a total cap, not "well, let's have a limit of 500 L's, 300 P's and only 200 F's"

good to know since you are the benchmark of whats going on in the game. they have said some people are effected and some are not.

Ohhh great Deph!.. good to see you!..

and yeah, lag is around to mess your gameplay

Its true. Been playing since oc. I can count on one hand login ques i can remember

Okay, looks like that is how they do things

Thanks Mepps. That clears up a lot of confusion I've seen this week.

I also appreciate you taking a Sunday night to respond in these threads.

I'm glad some people are realising it

I've noticed more input and explanation from you, thank you. DC can be frustrating but I love this game so much and when things are awry as they are now this kind of clarification makes it easier to adapt and understand. Much appreciated.

That... Doesn't sound good... (Aren't the Free players the newbies to the game? A lack of free players would seem to indicate that DCUO isn't attracting as many new players/new customers as it used to, which would basically mean that old players that leave aren't being replaced as fast if at all...)

Nah 7mins isnt a big deal imo. But i have 6 toons at 160+ i play. I run all the duos in my relevancy daily. So 7min wait with 6 toons means im spending about 45mins a day waiting in a queue i pay to skip. That also doesnt count when im on my tank toon and league asks me to troll a raid. I gotta switch and wait that 7mins again. All of us have limited play time because of real life. So if i only have 3-4 hours to play a day and i spend 1 hour of that in a queue? Not to mention if u only have an hour or 2 to play because of real life. Again not a huge deal, for me at least. It just needs to be fixed asap. No more band-aid fixes either.

That means fewer free players were playing due to the queue. Its a gray area, so no one can say what it truly means.

I totally get why we have the population cap right now and understand why it's necessary. But if I was new and trying out the game as FTP, logging in and seeing "estimated wait time 15 minutes" (or whatever), I'd probably close out the game and do something else. Maybe come back later, or maybe come back never.

It can also mean that a lot of F2P has purchased at least $5 and got to premium status. I've monitored the steam population thing and for some reason, DCUO is ALWAYS the same amount of log ins. Good or bad, it stays around the same.

Good to see you as well, I guess the DC Gods don't want me to come back. Maybe it's because I switched fully over to PC side lol
