Not even week from official launch and people already want to sue ever heard of little patience?
none of these issues have anything to do with server architectures, it's all about the planning, in this case with SE it was simply poor planning. Even Yoshi admitted that, he just added on the excuses afterwards about not having conclusive numbers. In reality there is no excuse, the buck stops with whoever was in charge! That I do give credit to Yoshi, he is taking responsibility for his or their poor planning and at least is trying to rectify it. Better to be late than never
yes, that is correct it doesn't happen overnight which is why proper planning is essential to providing adequate services, which takes me back to my statement I made before. In the IT world you always plan for the worst case scenario than scale back from there. It is much easier to scale down than it is to scale up! The problem is in the MMO Genre if they do that and then have to scale down later with server merges this make them look like they failed but in reality they are just becoming more efficient but to most gamers and the general public they don't see that and see it as a failing MMO.
actually SE just violated 2 laws by doing that i know of here in the US ,in the US,UK,AUS & some other EU countries its illegal to make a clause via TOA online waivering customers rights to sue its also considered a non legal binding contract by the united states supreme court >so yes he can sue if the lawsuite is viable !!
That is so far beyond the truth. worst case scenario would be they setup an infastructure ready to handle millions, when only thousands showed up. then they are left with dozens of useless machines, and payed out the ass for something that wont be a profitable turnover. it's easier to scale up
