As you can see from all the pple complaining, This WAS not the fair way to Launch a game.
Seriously, in this day and age, you're telling me that there isnt a more efficient way? for example a queing system that continues to email out invites based on server conditions etc.
When I first purchased the game, Early Access being ROLLING INvites OVER a span of a few days did not come to mind. Never heard of that in previous games.
Why are pple pissed? because everyone's goal in an MMO is to achieve something first. Sooooo...obviously letting some in the race early is going to piss off pple. Way I look at it, either let everyone in or not let any in at all.
