I have a 24 minute wait time this evening. Currently # 600 out of 800 something premium and 3500 non-premium users waiting. I'm not worried as I know it will calm down soon. I'm so far behind everyone in levels though I'm trying to squeeze all I can in every night!

Just tried to login and had an almost 900 premium queue. I think I will skip tonight and catch up on some TV as there is a new episode of The Expanse waiting for me

They initiated the AFK timer in the patch but until the game physically resets I am sure that the bots and the people keeping their PC running 24/7 will be ingame without the AFK requirement (It doesn't take effect until you patch it)

I am enjoying the game, though I know folks dislike the queues, but lets look at the facts.

1) We didn't pay 70$ for this game.
1a) If we DID pay 70$ for this game, you dont deal with large queue times 10-15 min MAX at PEAK times.
2) It's Free to Play.
3) It's Release day on the SECOND highest population server.
4) It is a very PVP focused engame boasting class balance in PVP (something other games dream of)

Given all 4 of these things, it will be approx 1 week or so until this issue fixes itself.

MY SUGGESTION FOR FOLKS WISHING TO NOT DEAL WITH THE QUEUE
Spend 5$ in NC COINS (399 coins) and purchase the ONE TIME PER ACCOUNT Student Package https://shop.bladeandsoul.com/signature/list which gives you 7 days of premium membership.

Either way I hope you all enjoy your time in the game once you get there! Make good use of channel swapping to get your nodes done and For heavens sake save your keys!
