Darth_Sookie Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 You would rather have servers crashing for weeks, huge queues, massive bugs and server wipes? Rather than just wait a day or two to get in sheesh you have weird desires. I'd rather have all of those things for the pre release week than not being able to play at all. How is that hard to grasp?

Quraswren Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I'm pretty sure it's only LATE access if you get in after Dec. 19. Dec 20th would be late access and it's currently Dec. 14. You still got got like 5 days for a chance at early access. Your good for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackcerberus Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 (edited) You would rather have servers crashing for weeks, huge queues, massive bugs and server wipes? and.....how would the EGA exactly prevent any of that? terrible bugs, server crashes, huge queues and even server wipes in case of catastrophe, those are just as likely/unlikely to happen, staggered release or not Edited December 14, 2011 by Sireene rude/uninviting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Githadys Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I don't know who they think they are fooling. The game released yesterday not on the 20th. The majority of players that will be playing on the 20th have pre ordered the game so by them not being able to play on the day that other people are already playing make it LATE access not early. This is simply the worst launch I have ever seen. I would rather a WoW like launch then having to wait DAYS for a game that is ALREADY RELEASED. It's only late if its beyond the 20th of this month, if it is before the 20th, then it is early, thank you for understanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrathofnatur Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 i don't get all of these crybabies its only the 14/12 when i pre-orderd i saw upt to 5days earlier so do the math : Official release: 20/12 - 5 days = 15/12. Stop whining and there will be COOKIES!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwyd-yon Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 This has been the worst fancy hat thread I've ever entered. I am massively disappointed by the lack of fancy hats in this game! I pre-ordered and I expected to receive a fancy hat IMMEDIATELY!!! So far I haven't even seen an image of the fancy hat that I may or may not receive EVENTUALLY!!?!!11 Thanks a bunch Bioware, I'm going back to Team Fortress 2 for all my hats.

Treason Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 This is fully emblematic of how pathetic this new generation is. "I deserve whatever I want when I want it! Me me me! Give me give me give me!" Stop being such a self-entitled *******. The release date has been December 20th for months, and you aren't entitled to one second earlier of access. IF you are fortunate enough to get it, then that is a GIFT from the people releasing the product. I am sorry, but that is simply not true. It is not a gift, it is an advertised perk. They SOLD early access. Of course, they sold up to 5 days early access, so can't really complain when you get in at 11:59 PM on the 19th. I wonder if I could start selling things that way. I promise to complete this programming up to 3 months earlier than my competitors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elyssi Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I can only guess that the OP was not there when WoW launched in 2004. Queues to log in, so much server lag it took 5 mins stuck in the looting position to even pick up the few copper on the boar you just killed....if you could even find one to kill will all the people in the starter zone working on the same quest. Server rollbacks, so many you weren't even sure where you were gonna be after each one. Servers crashing, some for DAYS without any communication other than "we are working on it". Some servers crashed so hard they never returned. Queues to try to get back on after a server crash taking HOURS. Honestly, as eager as I am to play and dying for my early access gift to get going, I would rather it be smooth and "pain free" than to struggle through another frustrating launch like that. With the popularity and the shear number of pre-orders received by BW, I respect the fact that they are attempting to make it as smooth as possible for everyone. I can only imagine what the forums would look like if everyone got in and suddenly couldn't play. If this is your first launch, go do something else, it will happen when it happens and no amount of whining, complaining, and acting like a child is going to get you in. As far as this being the worse launch ever, maybe you need to go around the block a few more times and get back to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FeriIuce Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Except the official release date is still the 20th? Oh come on. Really? The release was yesterday for all intents and purposes. Personally I'm not raging about getting in late, but its still annoying and something they shouldn't have done imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in EA, and I get why they did it this way but I still think it could have been handled better. They should have expected swarms of pissed off people if you do something like this.

Wynternight Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 No, this is early access and is going exactly as they said it would MONTHS ago. If you and others like you are too lazy and stupid to understand how the process was designed, and is working per design, then that's your fault, not Bioware's.

Manski Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 As far as i'm concerned, the game was released yesterday, when you let the first player in is when the game is released for me, because that's 1 or more days that someone is outleveling me and outplaying me. so no Dec20th is not the release date for me, i play MMO's to beat the **** out of other players, otherwise i would go play super mario by myself. this release put me at a disadvantage. POOR IDEA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lienwyn Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Oh God please ****. If you bought a CBR600RR during this month and it started snowing, are you gonna sue Honda because you can't ride anymore and have to store it until it stops snowing? Seriously, ****.

Personally I'm not raging about getting in late, but its still annoying and something they shouldn't have done imo. Can we stop the fabrication of new realities please? Launch is the 20th and has been for months. What is going on now is a perk for those who showed early adoption and commitment by putting up cash. This allowed Bioware to plan server sizes, hardware and to plan the launch. Just because you were unwilling or unable to pre-pay in the first week does not mean the release date has somehow magically changed. Ramping up load from 0 to 2 million players on a barely-tested infrastructure is a GOOD thing. Slow and steady ramp up allows for reactive-balancing in all areas of the infrastructure. Without it, we could find ourselves with a bottleneck that impacts everyone. Stop being so narrow-minded and think for a minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
