As expected, Once Human, the highly anticipated release has had a huge number of players trying to access the promised open world with engaging combat and survival mechanics. The active player count on Steam has been registering a pretty high number already even though it is a working day, and if you are one of those who, after eagerly launching the game are faced with a In Queue message – there are some good news! In that you are not the only one facing this problem. What is the In Queue Message in Once Human, what does that indicate and what can you do when you see this – we answer all your queries below
Why Am I Getting A In Queue Message In Once Human
You are getting an In Queue Message when trying to play Only Human because the server capacity is full or it is down for maintenance. In these situations, you are likely to get the In Queue message along with the estimated waiting time and number of players in queue. So you atleast get to see how many other players are also waiting at the doorsteps along with you to be allowed entry into the game!
In such a case, there is not much you can do but wait. You can try a different server, but if that server is also full, your waiting time will reset, so it may not be a bad idea to wait it out if there is atleast a timer giving you clarity of the waiting time and it is steadily decreasing.
You may want to keep an eye on the official forums for Once Human on their X account, Discord server or subreddit for all the latest on server down times and maintenance plans plus any announcements.
