Haters gonna hate, moaners gonna moan.
Sounds like a good launch by all accounts and a friend even managed to secure one of my two preferred names![]()

I can't get in either, but the error I'm seeing mentions network settings. I doubt it's because the Tesco code is faulty. According to ArenaNet they're aware of problems with the login servers and they're working on it.
At this point I'd say it's just normal MMO launch day issues.

I dont appear to be able to log in with the tesco code![]()

not really, it's not officially up for another 10 mins yetShambles.
Not happy, delated my toon, then recreated the toon as it should be and then it tells me the name is taken![]()
You have to wait 24 hours to use the name again.
I reserved my name quickly first then deleted to recreate with no problem. It is bound to account for the 24 hours so you can use it.
