Lol, listening to Abe rant about EQ is hilarious. Abe acts like he was butt raped repeatedly by moss snakes, rats, and the like, and never got over it. Never got into a group, never went on a successful raid and was laughed off the server. Rep mattered back then.

Really dude, let it go. You sound like a very bitter old man.
I love you too.

How are the queues now peeps?

I would keep an eye on things...the second they open up a new server, all the people who got fucked on land grabs will probably try their chances there.

Honestly game devs screw up queues very often for some reason.
They usually have multiple independent login servers and don't want to make the effort to get them to coordinate, so depending on how they actually pull people from the queues, they can frequently end up with significantly different queue sizes. Which is why cancelling and trying again can move you around in position quite a bit.

So how big is the rage over this P2W shit? Is there a chance they might revert it so it's worth playing?

I mean, I was willing to pay the monthly fee if I still had the chance to get to the top. But I'm not dropping loads of money on a game.

so I just sat in character select for 2 hours or so while I watched Sleepless in seattle with the GF (the price men pay for video games) and I didn't get kicked into a queue. Possible afk timer bypass?

lvl 10 in the time between this post and the last one - seems they added some dropable gear to mob kills - 85 purses

Significantly more archeum in the bags obtained from this set of mobs.
Trion managed to convince their bosses to at least partially derectalise their heads:
ArcheAge Version 1.2 Build 4.8: Patch Notes
GAMEPLAY
* The drop rate of loot bags from monsters has significantly increased.
* The drop rate of Sunlight Archeum, Moonlight Archeum, and Starlight Archeum from loot bags has been greatly increased.
* The chance of equipment from loot bags has increased from monsters. These items can be salvaged to gain archeum.
* The Solid Shaft recipe is available again, allowing for the construction of fishing boats.

Think Ill give this a go when the normal launch starts since I have the next week off, I don't really know much of anything about the game and it looks fairly complicated ... is there a cookie cutter ranged spec I can use to get started while I learn the ropes? Is there stuff I should be aiming for at the start (like claiming land or whatever don't know how any of that works)?

Yeah... seeing that too Ridas. It looks like it should be patching something at the log in but it is stalling and then kicking over to the intro loop.

Edit: And now the login servers seem jammed

This has been a surprisingly inept launch for them, especially given how smooth Rift was (invasion frequency notwithstanding)

@Tuco: Would be more relevant if the WHOLE GAME'S log in server was not what was fubar, server selection won't help you get past the universal login server
