Just downloaded this yesterday. Played for about 5 minutes and then the servers just shut down and I came back on today and there was a queue timer. It's actually a pretty good game, especially since it's f2p.
It wasn't that bad. At most I had to wait in a queue of about 1500 but it takes less than a minute to get in anyways.
Should probably mention part of the problems were, at one point, a DDOS. The developers didn't believe they were being DDOS'd at first but apparently their host gave them logs to prove it. They're clueless as to who would want to do it, although pretty much everyone has been joking that's it's blizzard :v:
I've been wanting to try this, I guess I'll wait till the kinks and initial hype/flood dies down.
I was playing it with a friend two days ago, when they still had the massive 10 000 player queues. Turned out if you died, you got logged out and put at the back of the queue again. We spent more time waiting for each other to connect than actually playing the game :v:
