You’re just being ungrateful! You spent probably 1h doing your dailies, bots want to play, too, y’know? /s

AGS is incompetent on the botting problem… forget about this getting fix. queuing is the new normal in Lost Ark.

9k queue just means you’ll be more pumped to (attempt to) play when they announce the next bot ban wave!
Their business intelligence likely confirmed this.

Yeah - I hope you’re wrong, but if this lasts into next week, I’ll call it on this game I think

Its not just AGs being incompetent about it, Smilegate is also. They don’t know how to handle bots in a game without having to require SSID to register an account.
Yup, they’re there like:
Good now go read a book or watch some animu
I mean, if you want some serious anti-bot features you need to incorporate them heavily into core of the gameplay (like Maplestory does) and the game is already finished with assumption that botting is impossible (SSID requirements).
I really hope they will find the way to get rid of the bots but we all see how proficient they’re in this endeavour…
game is just popular (official statement by SG on smilegate.com)
Interesting article on smilegate.com, sheds some light on bot situation
they are also banning bots and punishing RMT with ban/suspension and interwebs are full of ppl reporting negative gold balance. Inflation simply can’t be caused by bots/RMT because all RMT gold is REMOVED from the game.
such is the official statement
I’m in a 10,000 cue for one of the less busy servers in NAW on a Monday morning right now (where we’re all apperantly in the same time zone). I think it’s safe to say this is not just a huge playerbase. Also, anyone playing the game can see how small the ratio of humans to bots is in any given area.
At this point, it sure appears they’re letting the bots persist because 800k+ looks alot better than 150k… to the outside public.
they are lying , none of that shit is happening the same RMT and Bots are still in the game.
Welcome to Bot Ark! Where Bots plays and real players wait!

Careful there… I said basically the same thing yesterday and my post was removed by staff… even though it’s true, that’s exactly what it seems like.
Such a great game. What a shame…
Its been like what 2-3 weeks now since the queue started again?
If this game ever dies, it’ll be cause of the bots and queues.
The queue will freeze but it’s still counting down, if you restart the game it’ll hold your spot
Any update mods?
