Depends how they integrate the queues of course, might always be best to be a subber even if that should happen. Do we know their plans on this?

Does the subscriber queue have to clear entirely before non-subbers are let in? Or does it, say, let a few subbers in and then let one non in and then a few subbers and so on and so forth?

Good question. I would assume the Subber quene has to be empty before the Nonsubbers get in. In theory you shouldnt have quenes most of the times anyway, and only quick quenes during prime time.

How do you actually "sub" ?

I mean Alpha squad is all bought, nothing else to do but wait now, but I cant see anywhere where you Sub for membership....

Have I missed a link somewhere ?

In the subscription section of your SOE account page there is quite a few games including Planetside 2. Click the subscribe button under Planetside 2.

I did.

Get in touch with tech/billing support and DO NOT try too many times or your account will get locked.

I don't know anything specific either, but speaking in terms of CS it would be a classical mistake to require the high priority queue to be completely empty before processing the low priority.
Even a small high priority queue could mean that nothing else get in. Ever.

So I assume that subscribers will just be put into a faster queue.

No no, what we say about TR is that TR's BRAINS are rocks.

I know I am paying for an extra day but in the grand scheme of things when paying for 6 months worth of membership, working out as :-

£7 a month
.
.
23p a day

So not doing it on Tuesday means I save a whole 23p and have to contend with possible issues with the Servers when 1000's of people are all trying to sub up at the same time (Let's assume 1000's will sub)

Yeah I can take the 23p hit on my finances !!
