I hit "Last" on the forums and every time there's another damn page by the time it loads (and it loads in like 3 seconds) - impressive.

 

Two points:

 

1) Wow, this thread has seriously become the Mos Eisley of the forums. A more wretched hive of scum and villainy just does not exist.. you people need to grow up. They're providing more information on the process than previous companies have done in their versions of this and the process they've chosen to use is fair (and I say that having not received my EA yet - I unfortunately registered it in September, so I'm probably not seeing my email for days).

 

Also bear in mind scale here; there are rumored to be over 3 million of you twits -- that's a LOT of emails and accounts to turn on, even in an automated fashion (mostly the emails). Even using a large third-party (Amazon?) mass email service, it's still a ton of emails to send out, and like any good set of geeks they also want to see the results on the servers before sending out more.

 

2) Thank you BioWare for updating on waves and final wave announcements -- now I know I do not have to monitor my email until tomorrow morning at the earliest. Those very few mature players waiting on their EA appreciate you providing that level of information on this process so we can plan our evenings accordingly.

 

Also: Some guy's sig said "kidiots" -- I've never seen that play on words before, but not only does it very aptly describe most of the posters in here, it made me laugh out loud and more than made up for all the vitriol I had to read through to see it.

 

PS: Posted in epic thread.

Just want to thank the idiots who came up with this 'wave' system - most of the guys in the guild I joined in pre-launch are already on playing, my RL friend is on - how the f**k am I ever going to catch them up and play with them? Makes me re-think taking out a subscription with this pile of poop company - remember Bioware you aint the only fish in the sea !

Obviously, they only PLANNED 4 waves. If it turns out that the server populations are capable of taking more due to fewer than expected people immediately coming on, there is no reason they can't do more. It isn't like God is going to smite them for not blindly adhering to a obsolete plan.

So basically I should stop checking for the rest of the day as the fourth wave has already passed and I am still unable to play.

Whew, I'm really glad I pre-ordered so early and redeemed my code so quickly. Otherwise I might have got in on day one of the promised early access. But hey, considering all my invites to beta had problems and I never got to play at all because of that, this is just another kick in the teeth that I somehow deserve for upgrading, scratch that, buying a brand new comp piece by piece to be able to play on ultra and ensure the best performance at the same time. I'm sure glad I've sunk so much money into a game I didn't even get to beta test due to screwy login problems, while all my friends told me how much fun they were having. Oh and they got in at 6am this morning, but not me, not today, and probably not tomorrow I'm betting.

 

And while I'm on it, Origin sux. Let's be honest. Why in the hellz did such great companies choose to associate themselves with this brand new pile of unworking crap. Trust me, the problems we had with Battlefield 3 due to Origin and Gunclub were so bad that I actually got rid of the game, even though I loved it.

Also, there's the fact that buying the digital deluxe version was totally idiotic of me. Believing that I was going to get that STAP and some kind of "battle droid" by my side upon entering the game was just stupid. Even though that's the way they made it sound and look. Why else would anyone buy that crap when you could get a hard copy? And the fact that I don't get any of the extra stuff that matters until the same time everyone else gets their stuff...like the ride...everyone apparently gets a speeder at a certain level? (Again, never got to play beta thanks to login errors) And I get my crappy STAP at THE SAME LEVEL AS THEM! False advertising much? Guess I should've read the fine print on all that huh....and the early access stuff.

You know, NOTHING in my life has gone right in many, many years. I mean it has been a real spiraling cesspool of hopeless agonizing slow death for about 6 years now and I gotta say...this is on par. Sure I have a girlfriend, unlike most of the sad ppl that will be playing SWTOR with me....eventually...but that has many downsides to it...oh and I have a kid, and no job, and no promises of a job, and only an associates degree, making me worthless, and the one thing I do well, write, is basically impossible to get a job doing. Or using my golden voice...no radio for me....noooo...the point is, thank you Bioware, Origin, or whothehellever didn't give me access today. We wouldn't wanna funk up the flow of steaming, frothy shyte that is my life. Thanks again. Really. Thank you. Guess I'll go do some cleaning or play another crappy game that I hate. Woo-hoo! Goood times. Good times. Oh, and would you mind granting like triple xp to those that got in today until the 20th? Just the ppl that got in today though. That way my friends can REALLY get way ahead of me and I will have no one to play with. Thanks! I know you'll find another way to bend me over soon! I can count on it!

 

p.s.

keep nerfing things because nerds QQ about their lack of skill against a certain class. nerfing the inquisitor was incredibly blizzard-like and WoWish. The kind of crap that helped me finally escape that hell-hole. That and after making me pay for expansion after expansion, on top of dues each month, they suddenly made all our hard work obsolete and noobs able to catch up to us and pass us in lvl and gear in a month or two of playing by making the game cater to their lack of skill and whining about which class was OP and blah blah blah. So yeah, you just keep nerfing classes. That will really keep your fanbase up and definitely not piss off anyone that has put a lot of hard work into a certain class. Seriously, just go ahead and take the nerfbat to every class that has any potential to not totally blow, and then make the outright healers the best class in the game, but then after a few months nerf them until they can't withstand 2 hits.

 

Point? NERFING IS NEVER THE ANSWER! EQUAL OUT OTHER CLASSES! DON'T NERF!

 

p.p.s. gimme my goddamn access

Loving this thread.

Just remember they ADDed two days to the early access who cares if we don't make it day one. I bought the preorder back in July and still can't enter either, but props BW on the attention they have earned from people complaining that they can't get in to the game no only prior to the offical release of the game, but also prior to the start of Early Access.

 

 

At least we have plenty of company waiting to get in as well. :D
