Did they say what the 4/14 matainence was for?

God I hope so, the original launch of this game was a catastrophe lol

With server and network issues, yeah, but i have to say, in terms of actual bugs in the game itself, it was pretty clean, I only ran across one quest in Coerthas that didn't work, and they had a few issues early on in the raids i think, but other than that, for an MMO, the number of actual bugfixes is surprisingly low.

The majority of problems at launch were capacity issues with the servers. The initial zones were over crowded, and the server's could not cope. Also, early on there was no afk auto-kick, and many players were leaving themselves logged in to 'preserve' their spot, not caring that by doing so they were preventing others from playing, and making the zone overcrowding worse.

After players started to spread out, and the servers got upgraded (and more servers were brought online), and the AFK auto-kick was enabled, things settled down rapidly.

The biggest issue was they did not plan for the initial demand very well, someone somewhere did not relay the pre-sales data properly to the decision makers, or they simply didn't project the mass login impact.

This is whats making me wary about taking vacation days for expansion. I've never used vacation days for a game before, but I've got nothing else going on in terms of vacation plans and I need one soon (before I explode) - so might as well make a stay-cation. Even with early access, there's no guarantee we don't just end up twiddling our thumbs for a half a week or more like when the game first opened... *Flops around on the ground in indecision*
