Should like to say that the servers are back up at 5AM (theoretically) for the midnight AMERICAN launch, if you havnt already registered your copy and are awake at that time make sure to register before the mid morning/afternoon as the servers will be rammed to high heaven

just did mine before servers went down :narnar:  :D

388 as of 08:48am.   That's a ridiculous queue on an early-access server.

....and I'm still not in, queue is down to 48 but it looks like it'll have taken over an hour to log in by the time I get there.  Still, it's given me a chance to watch all the heroic boss kills you posted up :D

Queue of 400 at 13:37.

This is just stupid. That is more then the peak hours yesterday! At least they should not have your client time out from char screen, so I can just leave my game logged in forever.

As a result of your post Vargen, I loaded SWTOR just now so that I can go out and get lunch whilst it queues for me, so that after lunch I am ready and able to play.

I'm totally in agreement though about the stupidity of queues on early access servers.  They knew how many games they had sold, they know the population and this level of queuing is enough to make you throw the game in the bin.

Queue, 420 and counting.  Wait time at least 30 minutes.   Off out to buy some lunch now then......... :byebye:

and i logged into the system and i only had an 81 person que at 1 oclock, i think that the que differs based on your distance (i could be wrong) but bioware did say to choose servers close to you (so am assuming they have physical locations all over)
