It pays to be casual!
There are still people complaining about being unable to log in. I noticed that the highest influx of complaints seems to come at "Peak Play times". Well, I havent really had any issues logging in when I'm able to. I work during the day, get home after work, do a few chores, Make dinner for the family, tuck the kids in bed, then I log in almost instantly. The only time I had issues was during the "Peak times" on the EA weekend.
Just one of those times that being a casual player helps to avoid most of the angst people are having. Its growing pains. Could they have been avoided by more testing? Probably. Hindsight is 20/20 right? Main thing is they are obviously aware there is an issue and are actively trying to correct it. The ability to get into the game is a temporary issue that will be resolved and not something that will last the life of the product.
I see the "overloaded servers" as a good sign for the game as well as the amount of people complaining they cannot log in. While there situation is frustrating it means there is an interest in the game. People wouldnt be upset if they were being prevented from logging into a crappy game, right?
Aside from the obvious issue, the game is great and I look forward to this being a frustrating memory of the past. Good luck to the Dev team getting things sorted out!
YOU CAN DO IT!!!!

Well I guess it's going good on your end then. I get home around 6 pm do what's left of my homeworks and then log in around 8-9 pm, and it always takes me around 1 hour to log in since last weekend. Though i'm not raging like some around here are, I still think it's a problem right now and it's not because you are casual that it works better for you. Everyone has the same problems.

Yes it is a problem, I'm not denying that at all! There were a few times where my son sitting next to me was able to log in while I got the error. Good thing I'm not the kind of person to rage on him, take his controller, punch him in the face and say, "I have more right than you to play!" lol

I've had to spend at most the 15 minutes in the last couple days to log in. Before that it did take a few hours during the EA weekend. It really depends on "peak" time for the server you play on. I'm on PST so I feel like there are probably less players since the EST and CST people went to bed.

Yeah, well it kind of sucks to be a casual player that plays during peak times though. By the time I'm home and done with dinner, it's nearly 8pm est. Which haven't been too great for me being able to actually play.
