    Wow.

    Lets not forget servers are not made out of nothing. There is more than a meeting to be done. Hardware to be ordered, and received. Space to put the hardware acquired if they do not have enough in their current location. Make sure the cooling system is sufficient as well as power use. Then there is also the man hours involved in uploading the data to the server, making sure it is stable (so people don't froth at the mouth). Finally, if all goes according to plan they then have to decide how, if at all, they will implement server transfers. I am sure there are a ton of other quality related issues as well. Myself, I would prefer that they take the time to do it right, rather than slapping something together that fails or constantly has to be down for maintenance.

    Everyone acts like it is super easy to do what they are doing. It isn't! Given a choice, I am sure the devs would prefer to see the forums filled with PRAISE for their products, not a lynch mob. Personally, I am taking the patience route. Do I want to log in and play? HECK YEAH! However I am not going to sit here obsessively trolling the forum, or spamming the log in.

    No one is forgetting but everyone thinks they should have been better prepared. This is not the first MMO to exist on top of this being 2013. Not to mention they ran into these issues prior to the grand launching, the meeting should have gone down soon as EA was having this issue. Actually from what I heard, some of these issues were in Beta.. so yeah, I could be wrong though but still, they fuggin up right now. I also don't believe this is trolling, this is venting and people come here to do it with people going through the same situation and feeling the same way about it because apparently there is no one in customer support for which the vent can be directed to. However, you don't seem to have the need to vent about the topic of this thread nor do you feel the same as those venting, yet you are on this thread. That would be classified as trolling. But hey, I get it.. you're tired of reading threads with people bitchin about their issues. Don't click em.

    this is how I feel, They will fix it eventually and we will all get to play. But for the time being they are limiting the servers to stabilize them so we can have an enjoyable play time soon (hopefully). There is no point in complaining that, ultimately, most of us have no idea about the problems they are facing. Many people act like they are leisurely strolling through these problems without having their PAYING customers in mind. Do not jump the gun and just give up on something that seems to have a lot of potential, and maybe with an added bonus for those that were affected, just saying, especially if you already paid for it. Why not just wait for the end of the 30 day subscription and get your money's worth.
