Just wanted to put this out there and say, if you’re waiting for lost ark issues in Europe to improve, just stop wasting your time. Amazon have made an announcement that issues are mostly out of their hands and have no simple solution besides waiting for people to quit or re-rolling on other european servers in the new EU west cluster.

well its banned in my country anyway. not that I can get in game any ways
I live in Australia… don't wanna sound rude but get over it, i don't know of any MMO that has ever had Aussie/New Zealand servers, but guess what, we suck up it up and put up with the bad ass ping and just use NA servers.
What server region has fewer que times? EU Central or EU West?
I don't have queue issues so much as issues with the game in general. It's just go here do that, go here do that, go here do that, no variety. And the game feels absolutely lecherous with women to the point of being distracting, not even for any reason. Sucks because I like the combat a lot.
Seriously lowballing it with the 30 minutes for a 8000 queue. I am doing way longer for a 8000 queue right now. And frankly i only play lost ark for like an hour or two very late in the evening when normal people went to sleep. And some days i don't bother at all. Because the queue makes it just unplayable and i can't be asked to sit around doing nothing during the day.
It's just way easier to play other games. No queue. So that's what I do.
So basically people need to quit the game before we can play the game. GG Amazon.
Why can’t other MMO’s use the server technology that ESO and GW2 use?
You don’t even choose a server it’s just taken care of and there’s always people to play with with no ques.
I don’t know what technology those games use but they never have these issues.
Have to return to work next monday from home office. I already know that starting then the game will not be accessible for me anymore. For the first time im considering anti-afk kick bots because if i get banned sooner or later it doesnt matter because the alternative would not being able to play anyway.
Feels bad EU. I've thought the launch in US has been pretty amazing given the player count.
This game will be the second New World on eu, it will just take more time to get to that point, everything Amazon touches is doomed to fail.
Stopped playing after reaching lvl 30 which was like the 2nd or 3rd day of Lost ark. 5-6 hour ques (20k) while working full time it is impossible to play on Europe. They never cared about EU people and never will. And what is their solution? Go to a new server and make a new char loosing everything i've done so far. An MMO without sever transfer options in 2022 lmao. Back to FF14 it is.
Too many spoilers in the background footage
Great video Kira, its also helped me make the decision to move to EUW as i don't have the time to wait for hours on end to play the game. Thanks for all the great content buddy, stay safe.
No hurry, Ill play it in 2 years
When they release a free game its going to cost us nothing..of course they should of released the EU West regardless.
I really have to be lucky since the longest I've been sitting in que was like an hour or so.
europe the forgotten region yeah nice one try play from OCE where you have the game but no servers …
Funny channel, you did the same with New World – hype it up pre launch and then run it in the ground after (ok it was shit) but come on… read the room next time, you know how MMO's work – dont bait people to watch with hype videos.
If I feel the need to click on stuf until they die I’ll just play PoE instead thank you.
Been playing in US servers with friends tbh. Qeues where over 3k, so just took my acoount overseas. Don't have any issues or latency.
First day that the game didn't hit 1m. I'm guessing around the time I'm done with elden ring the game will be playable
no, it does NOT make sense to not launch with an EUW server. it does make sense to launch with minimal estimated server capacity, but looking at population numbers and other launches wouldve told them that launching with only EU Central is in fact not enough. thats not just a small oopsie. its pure greed in hope that ppl arrange with this bs. and apparently they do, mmo players love eating shit.
theres just no way im switching server, id rather stop palying the game altogether. i took time off for the launch and rather minmaxed my way to t3 (ive done it the chill way on russian servers before). i already put in so much time and effort and i simply dont wanna do it all over again for the third time. if they want ppl to switch servers they HAVE to pay smilegate to implement region transfers or tier boosts with new chars. its unrealistic to expect ppl who already put in hundreds of hours, to start over again.
even the majority of t2 and t1 players dont want to switch. so everyone is just fucked.
it was kinda obvious that amazons new world will fail with the state the game was in when it launched. but its kinda pathetic that amazons incompetence now also manage to ruin a potentionally very good and successfull game. they proved to me that its not worth investing time, money or commitment into their games, developed or published alike.
just a looking at EUs population numbers and research about past launches and gaming in EU in general, wouldve told them that its a dumb idea to not launch with EUW servers. its pure greed and its sickening. but mmo players love to eat shit, theyre so used to it. as immature and unrealistic as it sounds, i really hope amazon fails with lost ark compeltely and it has to shut down and/or get published anew, maybe not by amazon this time. i think drastic things have to happen to get any change in the mmo market.
The decline has already started, people hit max lvl and realize how pay2progress is end game and quit while Shroud shows to viewers how to spend 1500$ to progress fast, the owner of the biggest net cloud in the world unable to add more servers in EU, and they said this game is a masterpiece ? that's why the game industry is ruined !!!
I play on the new EU cluster and there's no waiting line at any time (even in weekend). I just want them to fix the stuttering.
Downtime of 24 hrs – take 6 whole servers and copy paste the data to euW and everything would be fine.
Let's pray to rngesus that they can do that in the next few days or so
Time is money – so getting nothing for the time spent is borderline bs.
If euw would give idk – 5000 royal crystals a ton of ppl would start over for the 50 bucks for free
Your videos are not bad but your very strong accent is kind of ruining it for me. Its not that I dont understand, I just find your accent very annoying to listen to.
I moved to EUW Moonkeep from Trixion, so glad i did no queues and dinged 50 quite quickly. Also more english speakers in the chat.
i think its just me, probably not even thinking but objectively i might be the only one to think lost ark is a lost cause and more overhyped than deathloop
bro…. the akame ga kill ice general pillow. +1000 respect from me although i already respected you
All I can say about the Crystalline aura, it's needs to be "unlinked" from the Ark Store when it's activated on your character otherwise, when the the Ark Store is down the Aura and your Crystals (The purple/blue-ish crystals) are gone till the store is up and running again, here is the kicker, The timer of the aura still ticks like it's still active so lates say you paid and used the 30-day variant and server is down for 2 days then you come back home from a long day of work or school then meet a the longest queue imaginable then when you are finally in and ready to play. It says the Aura is applied but then you realized that you have no Crystals and the Aura is still off even if you had like 28 days left, so you click on the store button and finding out it's still under maintenance so you either 1. wait and play like nothing happened till the store is up again. 2. Quit the game.
I don't know who at Amazon or Smilegate thought that "linking" the Aura and the Crystals to the Store system was a good thing but god damn it's irritating when you know you lost days of the Aura because 1. the server is down. 2. the store is down.
yeah all these server troubles dissapointing, also not having SEA/Oceanic servers kinda sucks
Meanwhile…being in the UK I made an account on an NA server, no ping issues of note and I've racked up over 100 hours without ever having ANY log in issues…whilst all the while there's all this crying going on. I wouldn't worry too much anyway…every MMO drops off after a week or two…and this will be no different once players that want to play free-to-play start to see the grind walls and come to terms with the reality of the end-game. Some will stick it out for sure…but rest assured…a LOT will drop off soon.

Why it is weird having first Europe Central instead of Europe West?
Me on zinnervale
i agree.. eu has been handled very poorely
