Whenever we get a super-popular multiplayer game, server issues tend to arise. One way to mitigate them is to put players in a queue, allowing them into the game in waves and batches to ensure the servers don’t suffer critical blows.
ARC Raiders is no exception, with some players reporting that they’ve been placed “In Queue” when trying to launch the game.
Here is everything you need to know.
What does the “In Queue” message mean in ARC Raiders?
If you’ve encountered the “In Queue” message when trying to launch ARC Raiderschances are that the servers are suffering critical issues and are not allowing players into the game. The queue is not specific and does not reveal what your position is in it, leading to the assumption that there probably is no queue but rather a full stoppage of players joining the game.
The message began appearing en masse on Nov. 2, coinciding with large numbers of players reporting they could not join the game. On the official Discord server, the game’s developers acknowledged issues with the back-end, which appear to be regional but are nevertheless affecting a lot of people.
The devs said they are actively working on resolving the connectivity problems, likely implementing the queue to prevent players from joining and overloading servers further. Until further specified, it appears this queue is indefinite, unlike what we had in Battlefield 6.
If you wish, you could leave it open and wait it out, or come back at a later time after it’s been fixed.
