LOST ARK QUEUE AND FAILED TO CONNECT, UNABLE TO JOIN SERVERS

 It is currently very difficult to connect to the Lost Ark servers. What are the reasons that make connections to servers impossible?

Lost Ark is currently a victim of its own success. With a lot of players trying to connect to start or continue their adventures, the servers are experiencing different problems.

Problems you may encounter while trying to connect may be due to server maintenance, a server not being active, or a large number of connections causing queues that can be very long.

Unable to connect to Lost Ark servers, what to do?

One of the first reasons leading to connection problems is server maintenance. As the game is in a launch phase, the dev teams will be adding lots of patches and hotfixes to the game to address issues related to bugs or balancing. To deploy them, it is sometimes necessary to put the servers in maintenance.

The week of the release, it is to be expected that the game developers will increase the size of the servers if they are overcrowded and this phenomenon leads to excessively long queues. This operation takes time, so your server may not be available. It is not certain that this kind of operation is in place, but it is possible when we think of the recent launch of New World, or even Final Fantasy XIV Endwalker.  

The other main reason comes from the popularity of the game. There are a lot of players, especially in Europe, and the servers are suffering from a lot of connection attempts, some waiting times can be very high. There is not yet a site that lists the population of a server and the estimated wait to connect, but if this hypothesis arises, it is certain that a site of this kind will see the light of day very soon after the launch.
