I played on launch day. Servers were fine to be honest.
Lack of content not withstanding...

I would def say not the worst launch, but doesn't take away some of the annoyances.

Really now? You think all of WoW's launches were better than this?

I think you haven't played on any of WoW's launches.

The later expansions were better (though not flawless).

No sir. That goes to 1.0 and ARR.
This was a bottlenecking issue that sorted itself out in a day or two. Now we just have regular crowding disconnects like every other big launch.

My only issue I have is, started a dungeon, got all the way to the end with no issues, disconnect right at the boss. Now have a 2,204 queue wait to get back in. :C

I'll raise your 2.2k for a 6k after trying to do Pippin.

I was fortunate to miss those bottlenecks. That would be rather a pain in the ass to have to sit through that. I feel for you, and everyone else who had to.

you need to play more MMOs.

This isn't the worst, but it's certainly not the smoothest.
