if they didnt, they need a better support crew.

They plain and simple aren't prepared for this weekend and launch in less than 2 days.

Not to defend what's gone down thus far, but they built the instancing and lobby servers well before the final pre-order numbers came in. They could have adjusted accordingly, had they had a longer or earlier P4, but they didn't. A lot of people didn't pre-order until after trying OB, which is why most companies don't have their OB less than a week before early access.
