Worse Launch Ever?

[chaotic_zero]

Yes, yes it is the worst launch ever. The game launched in 2011, the whole thing had to be redone. That's pretty bad.

I dont dislike the game at all though. Its my favorite game, and best experience ive found in a game.

I thought "Launch" was Tuesday the 27th.

I thought "Launch" was Tuesday the 27th.

The official launch is not till Tuesday, but I was wondering in the history of MMO's what would be considered the worse launch by far.

Two worlds has to be the worst game of all time.

Hopefully the new engine falls through soon I'm getting tired of waiting...not enough people playing to even make a party anymore (unless it's for powerleveling hecks ~_~)

Wow, AO is still going? I may go back in and check it out, just for nostalgia. =D

This is one of the best actually. I expected much worst.

Vanguard: Saga of Heroes
World of Warcraft


So far, I haven't experienced a launch worse than those two.

Even newer MMOs have had beta/prelaunch/launch issues. I remember The Secret World was completely unplayable for me during beta and that game's only been out 1 year. Then SW:TOR I remember having a hell of a time logging in for more than 10 minutes IF I managed to log in.

Ehhh, I wouldn't go that far. These are still very substantial issues, and while the game is perfectly playable at some times, it's mostly during off-peak hours when not as many people are logged in (and the servers are still VERY lively during that time!) During primetime, the game is really suffering right now.

It'll get sorted eventually, I'm sure, but I would definitely call this a "middle third" launch. I've seen far worse, but the problems are significant and shouldn't be underplayed either.

You'll have some spare gear slots once you start unlocking secondary classes on you main character.
