Stuck in queue to even load!

I am so happy that I spent $200 to be placed in a wait page. Completely unacceptable.

Just wanted to say exactly this! Why don’t we get an expected wait time.
I think they had this in Diablo 4, which was also very busy on launch day.

same story as a lot of people got stuck at 97% for ages, tried a reboot now stuck in a loading queue! Think Im going to give up for a while and try again later or tommorow!

yeah, I guess that is their fix, wait until enough people give up…

Could they at least give us am expected wait time until it’s our turn. I remember all this talk about the Microsoft servers being able to handle anything. lol, and now this….

Funny thing is that this wait screen is eating up a lot of GPU power, just for spinning that circle.
Try Win+G to see for yourself. Are anybody else seeing this?

It appears a bunch of us got booted about 15-20 minutes ago, and on relaunch I got this stupid queue!

I have been in the game, got a lot of settings for Thrustmaster and what not dialed in, had the Boeing 737 Max 8 on the runway at JFK, and instead of just getting up in the air, decided I wanted to tweak a few more settings and bam, CTD’d…but you could tell it was from the network.

This is ridiculous as we cannot even get to the main menu to mess around with settings etc., massively bad decision (as of now) to have basically everything in the cloud!

There was no “Login Queue” to take my money for the Premium Deluxe Edition!

Edit to clarify: Playing on Xbox Series X.

same story as a lot of people got stuck at 97% for 2 hour, tried a reboot now stuck in a loading queue! It looks like the servers are overloaded. I think in the next few days we will have to log in when everyone is asleep or tired of trying.

Login Queue has extremely loud music i cannot disable, this is very annoying as i need to have sound on i am talking to people in Discord!
Please give an option to disable music before game even launches, thanks!

We should have an honest apology and explanation for that. We didn’t buy a game to be in a queue for hours. I can’t find only one word to describe them..

Software as a service. all good, but we would like service, on our time, not theirs.
