The quiz is awesome. Nice Job!

Bull-manure!
Lock the servers that are full to new people and increase the server max.
There is no need for queues, other than rare instances.
Poor management.
Rift's launch was way smoother.
Read about the Rift Launch.

Bioware should use a psychological strategy and designate the "light" servers as "full." That way people will be more apt to randomly select a server.

10 million subscribers?
Yes it did, it saved them thousands of customers who swore they would leave if wow implimented a planned upgrade to their forums.
See, I was referring to an actual issue: Blizzard had the hairbrained idea to link a customers real name to their forum account. They thought this would somehow clear the forums of spammers, the customers who used those forums didn't want their privacy invaded and swore to leave if Blizzard did this. A minority of them actually did leave. After three days and thousands of posts about the issue Blizzard apologized for the idea and blew off the idea.
A company listening to it's customer base is always a good thing. However doing every single thing it's customer base wants.... not so much.
I agree that WoW is the bohemeth, but their subscriber base has been dwindling. I used to play WoW. You cannot say that WoW is not on the downslide. Look at their latest expansion.

Hmmmmm WoW listened and look where it got them.
It's a very fine line. I too, would like UI customization, but maybe Bioware is trying to change the trend and I can deal with that.
-
This game will probably have it's own kind of addons. That's almost a given. It will be up to Bioware what kind of information the api allows addon writers access to and that'll determine what kind of addons we get.
One thing I would like is more customization. I like choices on the layout of the UI. I would like to be able to increase the font size of txt without having to decrease the resolution, I'd like to be able to make the buff/debuffs larger and or move them where they could be better seen. These are things that are done easily with certain addons.. and things that would have been nice to see in the launch product.
I disagree that we have to leave it up to BW, true in the end the choice is theirs to make on the future of their game, however as paying customers we shouldn't be silence when we would like to put in our two cents. A smart company will listen while a failure wont.
Hmmmmm WoW listened and look where it got them.

That would depend on what kind of currency you are using.
Unless you're using some kind of underworld currency, I would imagine my purchase and subscription is equal which gives me right to equal say. Unless of course you didn't purchase or subscribe then your opinion doesn't really matter. If you did buy the game and subscribe then you are getting some enjoyment from the game too which makes your arguement irrelevant.
If your parents paid for it. Then you need to get a job.

It's just these old generation of gamers that hate WoW.
You know the "masochistic uphill in snow storm both ways kind of people".
Just ignore them.
Is our money valued any less then yours?
-
There is a silent majority that diligently pays their monthly subscription for what they enjoy. WoW is a non-factor since TOR has brought novel concepts to the mmo world. Parents that pay their child's subscriptions are minor compared to the adult gamer and the monetary loyalty they will show to a game they enjoy. TOR has managed to bring gamers from every genre to at least check it out. Love it or hate the choice is yours. I trust the developers to take me on a journey that has yet to be explored. As an experienced gamer, that's what I hope most for. I'm actually excited to see what Bioware's developers come up with as we travel through the story of The Old Republic.

The pre-order was available in July. Did you pre-order then? I can't tell you what to do, but I know as a guild leader I need to be informed on all AAA games. Sounds to me like you need to do a little more research to be prepared.
-
Looks like a bunch of honest answers. I like this thread.....people being accountable and not complaining.

Well... I would be just fine dealing with lag, crashes, queues, etc. All so I am on equal footing with everyone else having the same problems. If you're fine waiting until everything dies down so you can have a smoother experience, that's great, but why should that be at everyone other person's expense?
Not at everyone's expense. The pre-order was available in July. Did you pre-order then? I can't tell you what to do, but I know as a guild leader I need to be informed on all AAA games. Sounds to me like you need to do a little more research to be prepared.

Yeah, I know. Those Cylaks, always suing people over the theft of their sweet rolls.

Awesome! I think he deserted his own thread. I've been up for 24 hrs now and I think I'm delusional.
Cylak if you're out there please post! Need to feed on your anger! I'm getting bored, lol.
-
If they could get everyone in faster, I would certainly expect them to get everyone in as fast as possible.
I would too, but honestly I played all day today. It started our good, but toward evening hours there were connection issues. Better to have a great experience at launch rather then one sitting in the queue for 5 hrs. I think they're doing it right!
-
er... although I don't in anyway agree with the original poster of this thread, as it is basically just another whine thread.
your statement is also untrue, as I know of people who pre-ordered in July, who are in-game as we speak, but I also know of people who ordered and redeemed in August 24th, who are in-game too. however I have a friend who ordered and redeemed in July (End of July) and redeemed his code the moment he got home, who is not in-game due to no invite,
So I'm not sure how they are inviting people, but it isn't "I redeemed my code first" just a FYI there.
Not sure if that's true. From what I understand, the 5 waves they did today were the first day of pre-orders until about 2p since there was a mass pre-order influx the first day. According to what the official post says, there was a dramatic decrease after that so the date ranges for the EGA should cover a much broader range from that point forward. We'll see how it goes tomorrow.
-
I pre ordered last week, probably won't get in til the weekend or w/e I'm guessing...I don't hate, I just really wanna play and accept whenever they let me in. These forums have certainly helped me along.
Being in game is fun. I had access since 4a this morning, but honestly I'm having more fun making Cylak jokes with you all for the last 4 hrs!
-
I think "Cylak" is actually a Bioware infiltrate that was planted to prompt others to evaluate their logic process. Either they submit into droid clones or they become freethinkers.
The system is fair. It was posted everywhere clearly and people who feel bad about the line should rethink their strategic planning since the info has been out there since July.
-
...and why are we giving the OP any attention.
Lol, just cause they closed a 118 page thread that he started. They should name an npc after him.......one that gets brutally murdered for attempts at greed and mutiny. It's becoming quite comical at this point.

Yes it does make sense, but it also make sense you have to wait until all are inside before they start the film. This is not about standing in line anyway.
what EA have done in this is selling the same seat over and over for the same show, and now they are telling us we have to wait until the one sitting in your reservation is done before they let you inside.
In short they sold more tickets than they have room for so they spread it out over 5 days, but instead of telling you when to come for the show they tell all to line up and wait all 5 days, if you dont you miss your call.
Bioware want to reward people that gave them funds early, fine enough, but the pace they are doing it is turning the preorder point for a digital delivered game pointless.
Im glad this happend, it have shown me that to preorder any game from EA is pointless and a waste of time and energy, today i have canceled mass effect since they have a multiplayer version in that game i asume the new trickle in method is going to be used for that game as well.
I can just upgrae the game after a week or two if i find it good and recive the very same items in game as those that handed them money up to 6 months ahead of time.
The reality here is that in past launches, there were ungodly waits in the queue. On top of that, the servers may go down, sometimes for over a day during launch. Then you lose your place in line. Nothing like being 10 min away then the servers go down.
This way. No one loses their place. I think it's Bioware's hope that the TOR servers won't go down while we're getting the free days before the official launch. It's a much better system imo.

I feel it is our solemn duty, all of us, as curators of the culture of Star Wars: The Old Republic to make sure that none of us ever forget today; the Day Cylak Didn't Get int.
Cylak should be remembered for all time as that guy that didn't get in. He should be immortalized in all servers, at all places as that Guy who Didn't Get In.
Cylak needs to become our Leroy Jenkins of Illiteracy.
Make it so, internets!

Love it!
Here! Here!

If Cylak's tendency to start new threads carries over to starting new characters, we might have a Cylak on every server.....BEWARE!
-
actually, i can garuntee you people have cancelled already, and more will tomorrow, if the same thing happens, and i totally agree with everyone who does.
I highly doubt that. I managed to pull a guild together from three games. We're all really excited.
