ugh, what reason is there to multibox?

[Kalros]

Man, that stinks. I get the message sometimes during peak hours, but I just keep retrying to enter the instance, and after a couple minutes I can get it. How long have you had to wait before it lets you in?

[mmcookies]

last night i did it for about an hour

[Physics101]

Good to hear that. I have 5 new co workers that's inviting me to transfer to Kil'Jaeden. Their guild is IRON Horde Side. I know most Kil'Jaeden boxers are Alliance so I expect to be ganged rape lol

You have no idea how many alliance boxers kj has. I think it's something like 10 now.

Having the same issue. And when I do a "who" in the instance there is no one in there. But i have only had the problem with Ramps.

[Khatovar]

Yeah, it's getting pretty absurd. I feel like one day I'm going to try logging in and I'll see "position in queue 4380. Estimated Wait 1hr."

When im multiboxing i see that the first time i try to enter an instance, but i just back up and run back in and its normal. Ive never had anything like that where it prevented me from joing for a period of time. I just thought it was a little bug that happens b/c i got 5 accounts from the same connection entering an instance at the same time. Dunno how something like this makes you question why multibox.

Move servers or pvp. I don't do instances much, but even when I do I am affected by the "cannot spawn instances" garbage" quite a bit. I think newer servers with lower population have less of a problem.

nathrezim isn't very crowded anymore but I think the hardware is just old.

They need to do something about it and soon, yes everyone's saying this, and even blizzard has admitted this. My concern is, how many screen shots of repeated "Additional Instances cannot be launched" = 1 free day of play time? I'm usually the LAST one to bitch about getting free time etc, but last night when I was trying to finish out my Stormwind rep I needed to hit stocks for a couple quests, I spent 45 minutes trying to get in before saying screw it and running off to find some quests I missed. It's crazy that the instance servers are so full you can't even get into stocks.

How the hell are solo people leveling these days? Before I started multiboxing instancing during prime time was a staple of your leveling method. No wonder people haven't l2p their class before level 80 since they CAN'T GET INTO A FRIGGIN INSTANCE until they hit Northend, and even then it's spotty.

I realize this varies drastically from server to server, but last night I was actually considering transferring OFF my server. Why the hell should I pay my monthly fees and not be able to play the game in the manner I want to? Then have to pay $125 (at least) to move my team and HOPE I'm going to a better server?! I know shit happens and servers get full and ques and instances fill up, but still, I'm not doing anything that anyone else isn't already doing. The more i thought about it, the more angry I got at Blizzard. How can such a basic feature of this huge game be completely locked out? Sure I could have gone and done my dailies, oh wait, I couldn't because I had already done 25 that day. Oh, but I could have gone and PvP'd, oh wait. 1.5 hour AV que time. BUT WINTERGRASP! oh...I qued and half my team got in, half are sitting in Dalaran going "wtf mate".

So GG Blizzard, you've fucked up a bread and butter piece of your business. If it truly is a server balance issue, lets get some free transfers going. If it's some other issue, lets see about getting more servers for cross realm instances, or just more instance servers.

It is server related. My server (Shadowsong)'s battlegroup underwent a major surgery a month or so back. They even screwed that up badly and the realms in my BG (Reckoning I think, US) were down or very unplayable for nearly 2 days.

Once they finally got it all sorted out, I haven't seen a single "additional instance" message. So considering how much RAF boosting I've been doing, let's just say I was very happy

[HPAVC]

All weekend on Madoran I had that issue, others were obviously able to do instances elsewhere (guild people clearing instances and doing bgs), I couldnt get my lowbie guys into Gnomer, Stocks, or SFK. I just logged my guys minus one off the server and did some battle grounds and kept trying Gnomer with no luck.

Can you imagine spamming LFG and getting a group only to find it won't let you zone in? Haha
