So technically this is their 3rd MMO launch. They should KNOW What to expect when launching a MMO. The 2nd factor is that I played through Trion Worlds first MMO launch Rift: Planes of Telara. This was their first outing in the MMO arena and the launch could not have gone smoother if they tried. Were there bugs? Of course. Were there stability / population issues? You betcha! Were these issues resolved in 24 hours or less? Damn right they were!!! If a new company can launch an MMO and not take a week to fix population issues then I would think that an established company with 2 other MMO's under their belt would be able to do the same!
You are correct about this not being done in a timely manner, assuming they all live in japan, shipping the servers to the U.S/EU would take about 4-5 days, and be installed the next day, of course we are pushing the 7th day since they announced their plans to fix the problems.
