daveytech Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Prelunch... for those who get peckish mid-morning. Haha. I like that. I am truly shocked at all of the whining going on here. Totally unimpressed by you people who think you "deserve" instant gratification from BioWare. There's no gray area here, it's all just pure nonsense on the part of all the whiners, so don't argue with me. For the sake of mankind, seek professional help... please. Of course, all the whining does say a lot about peoples interest in this game. They are so terribly upset over such trivial things. ToRcrack already? Speaks to the success of what they have accomplished so far. Here's an idea.. turn your computer off and go clean yourself up. All the angst has surely made you sweat through your clothes.

Rhinoplat Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 (edited) Tear the lace off your panties and make sure ya still got a pair. Quit your whining -- and yes GO READ A BOOK or something. 20th is official launch, ANYTHING BEFORE = BONUS! Next. Official launch was today, by BioWares own admonition. Dec 20th is the gold release. Those are 2 very different things. Anyone that pre-ordered should have gotten in today. I have no faith in BioWare to give players an adequate time to play the game fairly. They don't realize the problems they have caused with this launch. This is an MMO, not a single player online RPG. This fiasco should not be tolerated by anyone, but what I see are a lot of fanboys standing beside BW while the screw over a huge huge majority of the pre-order populace.

dende Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 You're upset because they have time to go home to eat supper and sleep? Are you my manager?

Kachi Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 (edited) It is completely sad to see BW's total indifference to the rest of us that are still forced to wait. They show up at regular working times, do their jobs...let a few people in to play the game, and then they go home after 8 hours....a 9-5 job. Dear Bioware, Are you currently aware that you have waiting customers in Asia, Europe, Russia, Australia, and more? And only allowing 5 waves in per day at the time that you're in the office is a complete slap in the face to your customers (who supported you and paid your paychecks). Are you too cheap to get multiple teams going to allow waves of eager paying customers to enter the game at all hours??? I'm sure people in Europe and Asia would certainly enjoy this idea. Your sire are an idiot, and I hope they monitor your account, and at the time you reach lvl 50, get a few descent gear, and sit all nice and comfy they delete all your characters. I would definitely support them, and when you start to complain simply say, "We are sorry, but we don't have any record of your characters." Edit: By the way, YOU ARE NOT PAYING FOR THE EARLY ACCESS!!! Edited December 14, 2011 by Kachi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kachi Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Except it's not a bonus. It's something I was promised in return for paying early. If I weren't promised early access, I wouldn't have pre-ordered. It's only day one. Go read a book, and shut up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcalyn Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 You do realize most of the BW guys were at the office at 4:30am? They've been doing a hell of a job keeping the servers up for you. Not me ... I'm not allowed on the servers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They couldn't accommodate you, so obviously they are either lazy or stupid, right? Just because you are ignorant doesn't make them wrong about anything. Next!

You're a bit of an idiot. Just letting users onto your server is not the test, you need at least 24-48 hours to truly test a load for stability. Just because you play video games 24-7 doesn't make you a computer expert. Seeing as they stopped admitting for only 12 hours means sadly that they are listening to babies like you. Grow up, read a book (about servers) and by all means take your fracking meds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itkovian Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 It's only day one. Go read a book, and shut up. Exactly. You (person the above replied to) pre-ordered to get early access. The promise was "up to 5 days", furthermore it was specified it was to be in the order the pre-order codes were registered. Unless you were amongst the first to pre-order and register your code, you have no cause to think you would be amongst the first to get early access. But you WILL get early access, that much is certain, but it will be based on when you pre-ordered. Furthermore, by pre-ordering you're not paying for Early Access. You're paying for buying the game. Whatever you pay on pre-order is part of the full price of the product, not some sort of surcharge. Indeed, you are free to cancel your pre-order and get your money back. So you didn't really pay to get early access... and certainly not to get treated as if the clearly laid down early access procedure (which was fully explained since day 1 of pre-ordering) did not apply to you.

Galanaer Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Excuse me while I wipe the tears from my eyes laughing so hard all the nerd rage! I've called 911, their sending all available whambulances to the forums! If you see them, Let them through! Seriously though, original early release was 5 days prior to launch. They bumped it up to 7 days. If you really are going to throw that big of tantrum, maybe you should play a different game. Listen.....I think I hear the sirens now!!!

Rion_Starkiller Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 The game was set to release on the 20th. This is an additional, unexpected, EXTRA day of early access. This wasn't part of what you paid for - this is *bonus.* And yet, people still complain. QFT. I wish the OP would rate his/her thread. I'd really love to give it 1 star.

ZoneChaos Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 For the record... The Live Services team is working in shifts (24 hours a day, 7 days a week) for the next month to ensure that servers stay up, player population is well managed, issues are triaged, problems are communicated and bugs are fixed as fast as possible. After that, we're on-call 24/7 for the life of the game. [Like] | +1 | [re-tweet] | etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trevorn Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I agree that it is crazy that they only let in 5 waves. They invest a ton of money to make this game and then cant pay the extra to add additional waves. Everyone they invited today are not all going to decide to log on at 2:00am. What in the world are they thinking? They are using the whole "We want a smooth launch" as a crutch right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
