AION 2 Server Queue Stuck? 7 Fixes for Long Waits & Login Errors

If the AION 2 server queue is taking too long, you may see a large queue number, a position that stops changing, or get sent back to the login screen after reaching the front. These symptoms can appear during heavy server traffic or after a queue or connection error, while a queue that continues moving normally usually means the server is simply busy.

This guide will explain when to keep waiting and when the queue may actually be stuck, then walk you through seven fixes for long waits, queue resets, login errors, and connection issues.

Why Is the AION 2 Server Queue So Long or Stuck?

A long AION 2 queue does not always mean something is wrong. Check the table below to match your symptoms with the likely issue and first fix.

How to Fix AION 2 Server Queue Issues

Use the table above to identify the most relevant fix, or work through the steps below in order if the cause is unclear.

Fix 1. Check AION 2 Server Status

Before changing any local settings, check the official AION 2 Steam announcements for maintenance, service issues, or capacity notices. You can also check player discussions on social media to see whether others are experiencing the same queue or login problem. A queue can appear simply because the selected server is full, and NC confirms that queues move as space opens. If the servers are unavailable, wait for service to return before trying local fixes.

Fix 2. Stay in the Queue If Your Position Is Moving

If your queue position continues to decrease, stay in the queue and avoid restarting AION 2 or your launcher. NC confirms that both general and priority queues move as server space becomes available, so waiting time can vary with server capacity and player traffic. Only move to the next fix if the queue resets, throws an error, or sends you back to the login screen.

Fix 3. Restart AION 2 and Steam or PURPLE After a Queue Error

If the queue resets, shows an error, or sends you back to the login screen, a temporary game or launcher session may be stuck. Fully restarting AION 2 and Steam or PURPLE can clear leftover processes before you reconnect. Follow the steps below.

Step 1. Close AION 2 and fully exit Steam or PURPLE.

Step 2. Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc, then end any remaining AION 2, Steam, or PURPLE processes in Task Manager.

Step 3. Reopen Steam or PURPLE, launch AION 2, and join the server again.

Fix 4. Update the Correct AION 2 Client and Launcher

If you joined the Launch Scale Test, make sure you are using the correct AION 2 client. NC says Steam players must remove the Playtest App and download AION 2 separately for Advanced Access, while PURPLE players do not need to migrate clients. Follow the steps below to check your installation.

Step 1. On Steam, uninstall the old AION 2 Playtest App if it is still installed.

Step 2. Download the official AION 2 client when available and install any pending Steam updates.

Step 3. On PURPLE, keep your existing AION 2 installation, apply any available updates, and relaunch the game.

Fix 5. Stabilize Your Connection Before Rejoining

An unstable connection can cause AION 2 to disconnect while you are waiting or reconnecting, which may send you back to the login screen or queue. Pause large downloads, cloud syncing, and streaming, restart your router if the connection feels unstable, and use Ethernet instead of Wi-Fi when possible. These steps will not shorten a server-side queue, but they can reduce connection drops while you wait.

Fix 6. Check Firewall Access After an AION 2 Queue Error

If your AION 2 server queue reaches the front but the game repeatedly sends you back to the title screen, check whether other players can enter normally. If the problem appears limited to your PC, Windows Firewall may be interfering with AION 2 or its launcher. Check the app permissions before rejoining the queue.

Step 1. Open Windows Security > Firewall & network protection > Allow an app through firewall.

Step 2. Click Change settings. Find AION 2 and Steam or PURPLE; use Allow another app to add any missing executable.

Step 3. Allow both apps on your active network profile, click OK, then relaunch the game and rejoin the queue once.

Fix 7. Verify Game Files If Queue or Reconnect Issues Continue

If AION 2 still shows queue errors or fails to reconnect after the earlier fixes, incomplete or damaged game files may be interfering with the client. Both Steam and PURPLE include built-in tools to check the installation without reinstalling the game. Follow the steps below.

Step 1. Open Steam or PURPLE and select AION 2.

Step 2. On Steam, open Properties > Installed Files > Verify integrity of game files. On PURPLE, open Game Settings and click Initiate File Scan.

Step 3. Wait for the scan to finish, restart your launcher, and try joining the server queue again.
