My guess is that a lot of people are trying to log on at once.
I'd assume the same. Since I'm an EU player I log on before most people wake up. It wouldn't surprise me that the EU population on these servers is still lower than the NA population since most players who didn't do their research would've rolled on an EU server anyway, to say the least.
But yeah, when I log on normally only three servers are locked, and only experience queues/login issues after 6pm onwards or so. With any luck though, the queues will die down a little after the weekend is over, even if the official launch is incoming. People should be going back to work/school/college or whatever, so unless they leave their characters logged in, shouldn't that free up space for some people too?
Just a thought!
