The amount of idiots in this thread is astounding.
This launch has gone better than most and just because they're having a bit of problems within the first 7-8hours people are crying and bitching.
All MMOs(or online-only games) have teething problems at first. Get over it, man the **** up whatever you need to do to stop acting like a 7 year old.
Do we have any kind of unofficial OcUK server where people are going?
Why do you type - GP after everything you say? If I look to the left I can see your name, and if i look at your sig I can see your name, I'm not missing anything, so why tell me 3 times?![]()
Well what other MMO's have you tried to play on launchday? For me in recent memory:
WoW
SRO (free Korean game that managed things fine)
AoC
WAR
TERA
All of those had working log-on servers on launch-- even if in-game experience was laggy as hell and full of congestion and constant drops. You could at least get past the game launcher. Been stuck on that for 2 hours now with this GW2 'advance launch'. Not saying it's the end of the world, but a little confused how "every other MMO launch" you have experienced has been worse. How can it be worse? The desktop shortcut icon didn't even manage to open the launcher, or something?
I do it because it indicated me signing my thoughts off and not just spewing random garbage into a post without thinking

Again, this same routine line. Yes, all MMO's have their problems. But having a log-in/auth server being totally down for the first few hours is pretty much as big of a failure as you can get. Most MMO's 'launch day woes' are to do with in-game performance, zone congestion, client drops, etc. People can't even log into their account with GW2I think people's complaints and confusion are perfectly justified, considering they had about 4 'stress tests' to prevent just this sort of thing. Many other MMO's which experience 'problems' do not have this benefit.
You can hardly say they are 'overwhelmed'. They knew exactly how many people to expect.
This is a forum for an online game. People are going to moan, you need a reality check if u think people wont vent their frustration on this forum.
I call it egotistical nonsense.
But hey ho.
I've had no problems with the launcher. It took me until about 8:30 to login, then I rolled on a random server, transferred to Desolation at about 11, and carried on playing completely lag or bug free until around 12, where the login servers went down.

SWTOR
AoC
Aion
Tera

What was the reason for this list again?
