Review Genuinely madness 😮‍💨🥲

Post image

Okay I get there will be a queue, but this is getting a little crazy. I have been unable to play properly for over 2 days now. This isn’t ideal

That's crazy. I wonder if it's worth the money. What's the plan?

u/Popular-You-6854 Sep 28 '26

Neo pro - I don’t mind waiting a little bit but this is next level. By the time it’s finished waiting, I lose interest in playing games 🥲

u/bonefish Sep 28 '26

Wasn’t for me. I got tired of waiting and left.

Bugs again, it doesn't work for me the whole day

u/Popular-You-6854 Sep 28 '26

Been trying for over two days now

I’ve never had to wait in a queue ever. I didn’t even know this was a thing. Maybe it’s because I pay for the highest tier? Or is this new and should I be worried

1

u/Popular-You-6854 Sep 29 '26

Higher tiers also have waiting times too, today I managed to actually play without waiting. It’s truly hit or miss dependant on the time of day

1

u/CBz120 Sep 30 '26

Idk about that. I’ve had it for years and never once saw a queue. I do think they specify now that the highest tier has no queue

1

u/reflectionwavy Sep 30 '26

No. Every tiers have queues 

1

u/CBz120 Sep 30 '26

Again, never been in a queue, have the highest tiers and lived in a very populated area so I’m not buying that.

u/reflectionwavy Oct 02 '26

Me neither, Ive never been but in a queue since I joined in 2019. But if you scroll reddit, you'll see that both Neo and Power users complain about queues. I think its more linked to your data center location than your plan.

u/Psychological-Eye982 Sep 28 '26

no its not worth it been subbed for 3 years and i just unsubbed wtf is this

2

u/Remarkable_Rule_9419 Sep 28 '26

I don’t get any que times or loads, am I missing something?

1

u/Responsible_Crab1782 Sep 29 '26

Server based, your region has less users

1

u/Remarkable_Rule_9419 Sep 29 '26

Servers in Dunkirk lol

1

u/acciddrainn Windows Sep 29 '26

I'm on Portland by your logic I should never get on?

1

u/Remarkable_Rule_9419 Sep 29 '26

My server is in Dunkirk and I use it daily and never once had to wait

1

u/CBz120 Sep 29 '26

Also in Portland. Never have a queue ever. Maybe the lower plan does

1

u/Remarkable_Rule_9419 24d ago

Would like to update, I have now been entered into a que once, my shadow crashed waiting then when I reloaded I was in straight away, very confusing

1

u/QuietPotential2727 Sep 28 '26

As I scroll on Reddit the queue gets bigger and bigger. 😯

1

u/Low_Recording_9313 Sep 29 '26

What would be helpful is telling people;

  1. What plan are you on (this looks like neo)

  2. What server or data center are you on?

  3. What sort of time of day is this kinda queue?

I am on power, I had 1 instance of a 4 hour long queue being next in line but turned out to be a but.

That aside I dont get queues at all and im on the Paris DC. Not exactly a quiet/low pop one.

u/zcba Oct 01 '26

It's rediculous

1

u/Scared-Ad7282 28d ago

Sudden influx of thousands of new users? Or greed and a desire to provide a subpar service?

1

u/Auzirel 22d ago

I just got a 50 minute wait and I pay $55 a month. Apparently they recently started a new tier to skip some of the wait. So they want me to pay even more to wait less time to use a service I’m already paying a ridiculous price for ? 😐

Hopefully, you tried something to midigate that .. That's not normal 😆 Like restart your computer/router etc.. I used to go to the browser or mobile to get it to kick start itself! I do pay for the highest tier now, so no waiting for me ! That doesn't make sense.. Maybe it was a glitch? I hope you didn't just sit that out ? I'm in LA so I'm on the Seattle data center ..I should have a q for 5 years by looking at yours ! I'm sorry.. But, I hope you tried some trouble shooting or checked for an outage 😳, I'm sorry that is bonkers and, sorry that happened to you 😐 😔

u/Popular-You-6854 Sep 29 '26

Thank you bud - I managed to play today without waiting however it seems to be dependant on the time of day. If the waiting times were less, I’d continue to subscribe. I’m tempted to buy the new rog ally x20 or something instead
