Server queue fix

[Etihw]

Alright so we all know we want a server queue. In the mean time I have a suggestion that would help the button mashing join process. Currently, the process is (on xbone atleast) click ur server, then A to join, followed by waiting 10-30seconds to see the server is full message, and then click A again to close the menu. The cursor is no located on the "bookmark option", u need to click over twice, A and the rinse and repeat. My suggestion is to allow us to only mash A and atleast make the process slightly less annoying. Recode the cursor, so that after the server full menu is closed out, to highlight join server rather than bookmark.

That would be better than the way it is currently. Im trying to get into the server where I play with my friends and have been on that button mash for about an hour now.

The best way would be to add a proper server queue.

But seriously if something isnt done about this soon i will likely hate this game by the time its actually released.

I have been at it for awhile myself. Yes, a queue would be so much nicer. I could sit in the wait list with "There are 4 more survivors ahead of you." And not go crazy wearing out my A and left buttons. Please this is one of the benefits of getting an early release game, we get to give valuable input that creates a better gaming experience. This would make a much better gaming experience because I could at least read about how to tame a sabertooth, work on homework, learn another language so I can talk to the different people that play this game, clean the house a little, etc.

However, even before that happens simply ensuring the "join" button is selected after being told it is full would be nice.

Seriously needs to be fixed, I shouldn't have to start a new survivor every time I join a new server cause my regular public server is always full like any other public server, I mean I don't mind having to wait to play on my regular server, but at least make a button that saves a spot for you on that server and once a spot is open send a notification to the player that a slot is open and give a set time before the next guy is told, the NFL app sends you notification almost every time something happens can't Ark do it for a simple server queue. This is an amazing game but the fact I can't join the server I use till 2:00 AM ruins the game for me and it's sad cause now I feel I have to move on to a new game maybe I'll come back to it when it has splitscreen and maybe they will have fixed the server issues, only time will tell how much the creator's care about their fans game experience, even if it's prerelease, this is unfortunately a huge draw back in gaming experience in my opinion and sadly I have to move on I feel, this game has major potential but does not emphasize on the online enough as I felt it would have and leads you to host your own sever where I get too much of the minecraft feel, just on steroids, which leaves the game feeling hollow, empty, and without true challenge other than build, survive, repeat, even with all the awesome stuff you can do, its just not the same without a large number of people and the only way for me to play with a lot of people is to stay up till 2am play a hour go to bed and get up at 7 am to get ready for work........ it's a fun game just not worth the time or effort I put in to find a server and play so little because apparently time frames don't matter.

It's a lot hard process than you think. Be patient, they are aware of the problem and are working on it.

Yea the queue part is a pain with a lot of different technics aspects to deal with, but changing the highlight after attempting to log in from bookmark to join would be a relatively easy fix in the coding.

Region lock the servers so only NA can play on NA servers and EU only play on EU then open up more servers.

Or make it so different region servers dont show up for other sides of the wolrd.
