My point is, we've got one of the top two most popular servers.. I can jump right into either of the two new ones.

Don't know if starting over is an option we wanna still consider or not.

Yeah, you were looking at the cash shop. Credits = Real Money as far as I can tell.

Are you looking at it and thinking it's the auction house? Moslty it just seemed to sell expensive hats and outfits. Though the souped up glider is a Beta purchase I redid. I can't get used to the shitty free one.

e: my playtime will be mostly farmville for this week(days), if people want to move over to a reasonable server, I'm totally fine with that. We could also figure out the guild thing and share some of the current farm space we have

I don't mean to force people into switching servers, sounds like Troy is fairly established on the one we're playing on currently. I'm just complaining because I haven't gotten to play the game yet, and don't have anything real to bitch about yet heheheh ;D

I need to login earlier than I am, it's honestly my own fault. Could have gotten in the queue as early as 11am this morning, but waited until 5:30pm this afternoon to do it (lazy).

Well, at this point Cake and Stranger are higher levels than I am.

I have ONE decent house scaffolding placed. The two small farms are just spread all around the beach where I could fit them. Hell Swamp is Hell Swamp.

I know what a good start is, and I didn't get one. Too many super organized guilds on Ollo.

I think it will be weeks before the game is playable. This is just typical launch bullshit. The launch debacle isn't much of a turn off for me. A good game will be worth the wait. I don't think any other server will be any better. Anything more than 1000 players is going to be unplayable for most right now. We don't have patron status, so we don't get the priority queues. I got booted for inactivity and didn't catch it in time. 3700+ in queue right now. I didn't bother checking other servers. Can't imagine any are at a playable level for us F2Pers.

As far as moving. . . not sure that's warranted either. The only reason we'd be moving is for land. And I'm betting the other servers are full too. Given how little space there is for land, I think the only option is to wait for the market to stabilize and buy some spots we like. But I also think the only people that will be selling are people that got way too much land (unlikely), or people leaving the game entirely. But, I think that will be a while before they start quitting.

The special stuff people got for $150 are only spendable on one server, right? So, if they spent their wad on Ollo, they don't have it for another server later?

I was just on the forums and someone had posted the same que numbers that I did for each server, he was a patron. Everyone else that was non-patron was replying saying that all the servers were 2-3k deep, so I don't think jumping servers will help us out as a group much more, just me and Troy. And as Cake says, who knows if there is even open land on them servers

Just have to wait out the storm. Either they made a playable game. . . or they didn't.

Post by **Troy** » Wed Sep 17, 2014 7:47 pm

True nough.

It's a global pool across servers for Labor + Credits. They follow you, the items don't, so I'd be out the Glider and the Snow Lion mount if we were to do anything.

I should be back from my soccer game tonight by 11 or so. If anyone is on we could try to figure out the guild system(requires 5 ppl), or at the very least I can friend you to my farms.

I'll be on tonight. Got plenty sleep this afternoon, so I could get some good time in tonight and catch up with everyone.

Trooper · Post by **Trooper** » Wed Sep 17, 2014 8:06 pm

Just kidding, I logged in a couple hours ago, was at a queue of 3,200. I'm only at about 2,300 now. Guess I'll try again tomorrow. Holy shit this is aggravating.

Post by **Cakedaddy** » Wed Sep 17, 2014 8:14 pm

Have to stop trying to force it. Go to bed early tonight so you don't have to sleep during the day. Instead, you can play the game. Log in early and there is no wait. I logged in a 12:10 and there was no queue. But, that's 10 minutes after the server came up from maintenance. But I still think logging in will be easy before 1:00pm.

Post by **Leisher** » Wed Sep 17, 2014 9:14 pm

I logged on when I got home today at 6:30 and was something like 3300 in the queue, it's now 9 and I'm 2025.

I'll be up until 1. If by some miracle it logs me on, I'll create a character.

If not, I'll try again tomorrow.

Post by **Cakedaddy** » Wed Sep 17, 2014 10:04 pm

You'll do best logging on at lunch while at work and creating it. But even then, you still can't play when you get home!

Post by **Leisher** » Wed Sep 17, 2014 10:11 pm

Maybe they should be timing folks out? At least the F2P people.

Not forever, since just being logged in earns you whatever, but how about limiting it for the first few weeks until you get your, meaning the developers, shit together?

I've been in queue for 4 fucking hours and I'm still 1600 players away from getting into the game. If you guys weren't playing, I'd quit and uninstall.

AFK timer is 45m

Post by **Troy** » Wed Sep 17, 2014 11:16 pm
