Aisar Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I figured I would post something that is logical and stuff. Not only did Bioware up the invite date 2 days, they got 5 waves in on the first day. That's a lot more than i was expecting. Keep it up guys!

AkilZodiac Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) What? Do you even know the size of each wave, or did you just hear "wave" and decide to suck up to Bioware? Did you know that they haven't even gotten all of the July pre-orders in yet? It went July 21st codes to July 27th. They should not be congratulated for moving at a snail's pace.

Keep it up guys! really? then I envy your perpetual supprise when the sun come up everyday too. They beta stress tested and it aparantly went well....and now they trickle people in. Whether it was advertised correctly or no, the QQ over this was predicatble and BW was naive in not dealing with it. What has changed since stress test that they cant open servers at a decent rate? And as for stopping waves to go to bed....my god, what kind of mickymouse operation are they running....have they got a PR department? if so I suggest they go give them a slap and get them doing their jobs...

THIS It is fine rolling out 5 waves or even 1 wave or none, whatever The problem is BW communicates about as good as a 2 year old, you know it is hungry when it cries.

They didn't even do all of that, I have an IRL friend that pre-ordered on the 22nd and one in November, the November guy got in already and the guy that pre-ordered on July 22nd is still waiting. edit: I'm not complaining about myself, I didn't preorder until December so I know I'm not getting in any time soon, but I have to work from now until the 17th so it's all good Edited December 13, 2011 by AviatingPenguin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BW please invest some of this massive amount of cash in a PR dept! What I find funny, is everyone complaining acts like this is fresh news as of today. Had anyone even payed attention on the prior forums when this was discussed and brought up by bioware? I'm just baffled by all the outrage like this is something NEW they decided to do TODAY... really. CHILL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noobify Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I think they did/ are doing pretty good. Earlier than expected, but rage is contagious and some individuals believe that throwing a tantrum is the best way to get things done. I'm assuming that's a learned trait and a product of environment so I'm dubious to rag on them much but common sense should prevail at some point. 5 days early access - means 2 days from now. Entitlement wasn't in the EULA that you read and accepted to install early. I agree Bioware is doing a good job, I've seen many, MANY worse launches.

SilentFalcon Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 OMG people... seriously stop whining. Does anyone know the % of preorders in first days compared to after that? It's logical that most pre-orders were in the first few days. so ofcourse those go slow. On another note... all those whining... beta stress test should have shown bla bla. What I noticed during stress test... was ppl camping quest objects with a timer. It was hard to finish some quests since too many ppl were doing them at the same time. so in my opinion the beta showed that having all start at the same time is not a good plan. And seriously... you were promised up to 5 days... we are currently 7 days from launchday... stop whining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zolaz Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Congrats Bioware ... 5 "waves" in one day. Ya'll are awesome ... how many days till you finish? It is nice to see a developer who puts the needs of the community first. I mean the fact that there are pages on pages of raging customers on your forums shouldnt put a dampner on the awesome job you are doing. I hope your managers bought you lunch or got you ice cream for the OUTSTANDING job ya'll are doing. Dont worry about the mass of people complaining. Im sure that will work itself out, since ya'll are awesome and stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would imagine a very large chunk of the pre orders were made during the first week. EA said TOR out sold Battlefield 3 in its first week of pre sales. Let me know if you need more explanation as to what this means for the remaining pre-orders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
