pattongb Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Stephen, most of us totally get what you're saying and it's the smart and responsible thing to do. Don't let all the whiners get you down. This really is the smartest launch of an MMO I can remember, and at the end of the day this is just seven days in potentially years and years of playing for most of us. If people are clouded so much by impatience that they can't see that, then there's really nothing that could calm them down. I for one very much appreciate this approach and I'm not even someone who's in the game yet, or will even be tomorrow most likely (pre-order november 16th). /signed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Originally Posted by Kinegos This isn't a troll, and isn't exactly QQ although there is some of that involved.

I've personally participated in launches of 6 other MMO games, and there is nothing in those experiences that compares to how ridiculous this process is. When you are dealing with a pre-launch even that is only for pre-order customers, after an extensive and massive beta testing period that was a huge success according to nearly all sources involved - it begs the huge question as to what is the limiting factor in the way you have chosen to roll out this game. I personally participated in the beta in a very limited way (not by choice, mind you, I just wasn't lucky enough to get a key) and was only online during the big Thanksgiving weekend test. That test was wonderful - there were a huge number of servers, and a huge population of testers. The game performance was amazing. So, EA/BW - what exactly are you afraid of? The ONLY way this should have been done is to have given ALL pre-orders (perhaps separated only by level of game purchased - i.e. CE customers get 7 days, SE get 5, e.g.) access at exactly the same time. Of course it will overload the servers and queues would ensue and all that - but that's what we all expect. Making your customers wait unknowingly with no idea how long it will be or when to expect an email is just adding insult to injury. A poor alternative would have been to send out emails with a set time and day that your access would be available. I read in the top post how you are monitoring the server performance and are rolling waves based on server performance. Are you seriously saying you have to wonder at this point if your servers can perform up to the task - when you probably still have 90% of the launch day players yet to even be able to play? That is not at all a good message to be sending at the beginning of an MMO franchise. At any rate, I love this game. I love BW. But I truly despise and am sickened by the way you chose to put your customers through so much stress for absolutely no good or justifiable reason. I truly hope you improve, because this is a very very poor way to start out. !!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IdentifyZero Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I love how the media and game reviewers, press etc.... got in first. I won't claim or cite sources, but I know of some people in the industry who are in. This is not Early Access. This is favoritism. Early Access is supposed to be for everyone. Not to mention, it's continously being called LAUNCH by Bioware. Explain that crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalehm Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Athene, Swifty, and Towliee are getting in the FIRST WAVES. The first two did not pre order, and towliee is noted saying he pre ordered in OCTOBER. These guys are internet streamers, and they get to jump the line? http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=7756 So everybody gets treated the same... oh wait!

Ladydawny Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 What this means is that tomorrow, you'll effectively start to see the pre-order timeline expand. You'll see people who have pre-ordered later than July getting invites Err hang on we did it well before end of July, so what happened to our 'wave'??
