Which would be true right up until ONE of his predictions was missed. Additionally, I love your post, but some people are not being reasonable. First off, this is the 13th, 7 days prior to release, not 5. Second, they are trying to reward early pre-order. Does this method work? Well, that remains to be seen. I know a lot of people are irate, but they are wrong.
1. As you pointed out, the "promise" was "up to 5 days". We are at seven days. Also, it was said that everyone will be on by the 15th. So, no loss there.
2. The servers up for early access will NOT be the only ones that ever go live. Competitive players will get their shot at server firsts. So, no loss there either.
3. If all those that complained quit and got a refund, it would be such a small impact that the company wouldn't even notice. Again, for the company, no loss.
Those that are complaining are the ones that want to complain and look for a reason. They are those that give reasonable nerds a bad name. Now, the other side, could this have been done better? Absolutely! But it is what it is. Life is not fair, equitable nor reasonable. To those that expect that they will get their way, get over yourself. Life is not here to suit you. This is an example of that. Learn from it.
