Did Someone Say Party?
Players went from excitement to exasperation faster than a llama break in Fortnite. The reason? The dreaded queue time. Many members of the community were geared up to attend an in-game party, but were held back by the lengthy queue time. As one player, Lapris83 lamented, ‘You would think they could have prepared better?’.
Beat the Clock, Anyone?
The torment of watching the minutes tick by was all the more vexing because there was a real urgency to log in. Users like Doctor71400 expressed their despair, “I have 37 minutes. Looks like I am going to miss it completely.” The queue had, quite rudely we might add, turned an one-off occasion into a race against time.
Finding Humor Amid the Chaos
Despite the frustration, some gamers managed to find humor in the situation, citing Fortnite’s infamous ‘successfully logged out’ message after being flushed out of the queue and a rather dark interpretation of the party invite to mean an invite to a seemingly endless wait. As Spiderfigs quipped, ‘I have a 59 minutes queue’, which might very well throw a cold water on any party.
Overall, it seems the queue mishap threw a wet blanket over what was meant to be a virtual fun fest. It served as a stark reminder that even in a digital world, things can sometimes go off-rails. As fingers fly over keyboards and battle cries are muffled by headsets, we remember that all the epic faces-off and sensational victories are at the mercy of that menacing queue time.
