While I don't agree with the OP, I think this statement made me vomit a little. His concerns aren't invalidated by ours.
I'm on Masamune (JP) and have no problems at all
Thank you for your preorders and prior purchases.
Oh, you want IN the game? Hahahahahahaha!
Release of v. 2.0 may meet same fate as relase of v 1.00.
In this state its completely unplayable. Youe login takes 5 hours, then you dc and can't ever log in back. Errors like 1017,90000,10112 or i dont know whatever digits are there. This is rushed release, servers were not tested properly. Open beta 14days long, without any registration limitations could help you.
Too late SE, too late. (someone would say*)
I have paid and my CE arrived yesterday. Aint no rescheduling that.
I am not a tech person but it seems they were woefully unprepared for the scale of this game. Population will drop massively but it may drop even more than it would after a smooth launch and those people wont ever come back.
What are you on about?
they underestimated the NA server capacity ..and putted an higher limit of log in than the server can have and they accepted way over the limit of people on a server without thinking that people NA/EU player are big player. So here now we are stuck on that
SE really can't afford this mess to continue into normal release. The PR disaster that would happen if this were general release would be devastating.
I think they forgot about the server merge that happened in 1.0, all those players (or the majority) are now back and we have single servers with the population of two.
Only way to sort it now is to open up server transfers to get people off the legacy servers, or to introduce overflow servers
They should have done what Bioware did with SWTOR. Have way more servers for launch in preperation for a lot of incoming players then downsize servers as needed.
