Ravenolf Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 No ques to get in. No quest mob camping. No crashes at all. No lag at all. And so far the community has been great, and very helpful in chat. Congrats Bioware! I am sure future MMOs will take a page out of your book. Now to get back to it. So much win in this game.

Liithium Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 I'd like to see where exactly the "bar" for the Launch has settled come the 20th... Should be lots of fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dizkazk Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Set the Bar low. I've never been in a staggered release. Whenever I have gotten in a headstart I was able to play with everyone else. This is setting the bar lowest imo.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runealdo Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 For people who only know how to play an MMO like a race, being first at max level, this has been heartbreakening and their internet egos lie shattered on the floor. But for people who bought this game to immerse them selfs in the history and play this game like a game while leveling, it's utter genious.

Amdarius Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 I kind of like that the staggered start might keep away the most extreme epeen wielders. They're annoying and tend to ruin the game and the community in the long run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is setting the bar lowest imo.. Staggered releases are the only way to go for games this popular. If there wasn't a staggered release, you'd have WoW's launch, which was a complete mess. This launch is perfect, and Bioware is just going by the policy they've set since preorders were announced. It's not their fault people don't read.

DeeMoneyBig Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 I can't think of a better (or more fair) way to launch an MMO with an expected player base north of one million... Better to open up the floodgates, crash the servers, unplayable lag in beginner zones, 100 people all trying to kill the same mob, etc...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would imagine the most extreme epeen wielders preordered the second it became available and have already been playing for two days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea you got to wait 5 hours in queues like everyone else you got to experience multiple server crashes like everyone else you were able to lag every other step like everyone else. Sounds like a blast:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is setting the bar lowest imo.. Those other launches didn't have to handle over 1 million pre-orders...get real. Opening the floodgates and letting 1 million people assault the servers is much more problematic than the measured access that BW is doing atm.

It's not their fault people don't read. Gonna be completely honest with you...I hope I never see another early access done in this fashion. Unless they do continuous rolling invites until everyone is in. These 18 hour breaks between invites kind of ruin the idea for me. Those other launches didn't have to handle over 1 million pre-orders...get real. Opening the floodgates and letting 1 million people assault the servers is much more problematic than the measured access that BW is doing atm. Bioware also opened with more servers than I've ever seen, so I think you're being overly dramatic. Edited December 15, 2011 by Vember Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnight_Malice Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Seriously, staggered release is only hurting your egos, the last 2 days of early access weren't even part of the normal access that was given with pre-orders. People complaining that they are allowing people to get on thier game before official release, but because you didn't get in day 1 you cry like little girls... really? So you want to give everyone access all at once and have like 2000 people on the starting planet all at the same time, trying to talk to all the same NPCs to start quests. No thanks bro, I would rather not have my system crash because of too many users in a single area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
