The cue was honestly not that bad and it was only yesterday, I have yet to see a cue today. All things considered this was arguably one of the best launches I have ever seen. There were literally hundreds of people in my immediate vicinity in any given channel in any area and there was minimal latency and the game ran like a champ on my comp. I was mildly frustrated at the cue initially, being one of a number that grew every minute, but I got in within a reasonable amount of time.

I love this game :)

The queue was not that bad?! Some servers you had to wait up to 7 HOURS to play! Seven!!! You say that's not that bad? Wow, now that's some serious patience you have got, but personally I don't have enough game time to wait 7 hours. I was lucky enough to *only* wait 5 hours to get on the first time, but then I did get to try out another server later after only 3...

The game has channels too once you get inside, so people saying it needs the huge queue so it won't crash because it doesn't use channels are wrong, you just don't personally see how to change them but it has them...

I realize that the fans who hate anything negative said (usually called "fanbois") will vote this comment down, because it tells the truth about something that was horrible and negative in Aion, but please... I don't dislike the game, but I thought waiting 5-7 hours was very horrible. Maybe you were one of the lucky people who logged on early and only had to wait a few hours, but don't try to tell me it wasn't that bad, it was horrible. On top of it all, servers were crashing anyway, so it didn't prevent crashes.
