***World of Warcraft : Warlords of Draenor***

[Noxia]

It's been the worst launch I've experienced out of any of the expansions.

I'm glad that its bad. It makes me happy that the game is still so popular.

Did the FCM from Draenor about 2pm today and still waiting. They do not exist on armory and I cant make a thread on blizz forums cos all my toons are being ported over and you need a level 10 toon to make a thread and I have none.

So I dunno if Blizz have just screwed up my toons. I probably should have kept one on Draenor but then again I did not fancy a 3hr wait to play an alt.

I'm considering playing through the night and sleeping in the day to avoid the queues - yes I have no life

Or you could put your intellect, strength, stamina and agility into hooking up with someone on plentyoffish and do other things 'through the night'. Just sayin as 'Yrel' wont give no lovin!

Why is everyone so surprised that an MMO had a bad launch?

This is more than expected IMO.

Biggest MMO company... Known number of preorders... Not properly tested RE garrison phasing... **** poor really, when you think of the cost of the expansion (which has gone up for WoD) and the monthly sub.

Just quit queue and rejoined - puts you back in the same position, but you can see whole queue for a few seconds - Draenor currently has 5700 waiting

That is a solid point, not many games going this strong after 10 years, especially an MMO.

Its not a BAD launch its a epic fail of a launch.They may as well turn the game off and sort it out rather than leave people hanging on to stupid updates every 6 or so hours

Why? People are leveling fine.

Some people are leveling fine.

I agree it should be fixed properly before releasing back to the masses. But additionally, once logged in the experience should be at least playable, not bugged to hell - I know the queues would be even longer, but knowing once you are in, the game is playable would be a massive incentive to queue up!

 

[Tonydb]

yea and its become an unfair advantage now.they talked about everyone having a fair shot etc....well this aint it

 

[sbi5ar]

The 5000 people in locked server queues would argue the toss on that one

 

[lofarl]

I have not played a single second of this xpack and I have been waiting for 2 nights now.

2800 queue on the Maelstrom, I should have queued up before going for my haircut.

 

[Tonydb]

im just annoyed i waited up till the early hours and booked a day off work to have a good old go at it...and ive been stuck in the cursed woods for what is now over 24 hours unable to do a thing !!!

In my opinion the best way to solve this at the moment would be user rotation, once you've been logged in for 2 hours you're out of there, at least gives everybody a chance to play the game. Still incredibly awful from a service point of view, just better than what is happening now.
