Atleast this is a new low and when we try new MMO's in the future we can all go "Oh you should have been there when FFXIV launched, it was an epic disaster and they had to stop selling the game on the second day of the official launch. This is nothing!".

lol, yes. At least it this game has to be online. The Sim City launch didn't go so well either but people were mostly pissed off that they forced the game to be online when we didn't want it online, and then, of course, midnight rolls around and no one can play the game. XD

I still think this tops the new Sim City launch though.

Guild Wars 2 did the same thing for a period of time.

I take it you didn't play the launch of GW2 then? They also stopped selling copies of the game. I know they stopped selling digital copies, not so sure about physical copies though.
