Battlefield 6 is finally live—and yes, its queue is as big as a country

The day we've all been waiting for is finally here: Battlefield 6 is officially live. But despite EA saying the servers will be ready for the incoming traffic, players are clogging up the queue so bad it's reaching numbers as high as my country's total population.

As of this article, I am sitting in a queue at position 416,000, meaning there's half a million people ahead of me trying to get into the game. I don't even want to look behind myself at the line that is just forming, given how this queue size is already almost equal to my home country's population of some 625,000. Battlefield 6 is by far EA's biggest release in these last few years, with this summer's open beta indicating we'd be in for a true storm once the launch day comes.
