It seems that the Xbox One launch of DC Universe Online is off to a rocky start. While many of us have already created our superheroes/villains and have flown across the huge city of Metropolis, it may be a while before others are able to join the fight. Free members of the game have to wait in a humongous queue before they can enter the server and—with the gigantic number of people attempting to play—the lines are pretty darn long.
Daybreak are onto the situation, however, and are planning to add more hardware in order to accommodate the large player base. Hopefully, we’ll all be able to continue playing DC Universe Online sometime soon.
The demand on Xbox One right now is astronomical. We are thrilled, despite that queue time, and will add more hardware as fast as possible.
