[BLOG] Battle.net suffers login lag and queues

If you've attempted to log into some of Blizzard's most popular games today it's possible that you've run into a problem that as of time of writing there has not yet been a given reason for. For some reason the login queues are taking a while longer than they usually do.



The reports of overlong queues for Hearthstone turned up on the sub-Reddit earlier when users complained that their waiting times were often around 15 minutes, sometimes more than that. As is typical several have already put forth the theory that a DDoS attack could be behind the problem, and while Blizzard haven't yet provided the users with a reason it wouldn't be the first time in recent memory something of a similar nature happened - after all Draenor's launch woes were compounded by another attack.



For now all we can do is wait and see if it's another attack or something more tech-related.
