Every time something like this happens, I just imagine the design meeting that led to the situation. And each time I always picture one guy, in the back room, probably keeps to himself most days, doesn't really say much, then he hears this and is just "UMMM, I DON'T THINK THAT'S GOING TO WORK" at which point everyone whips their heads around to face him and collectively go "naaaaah, it's fine."

Then we get to the day of the incident and that guy is at his desk, typing away, diligently working, and on the inside he's just like "YUUUUUUP."

This issue shows the difference between Japanese servers and American servers:

On US servers, people just crowd the point and spam the button.

On Japan servers, people took it upon themselves to line up and take turns.

Very glad I chose to be on a Japanese server. ^_^

I went to go play SMITE for the night. This early access was trash. GG Yoshi. Good luck with hyping the next thing you want folks to preorder.

You know the release isn't until Tuesday right? This will very likely be fixed by tomorrow

You would think that they would have learned something about launching expansion packs, after fifteen years of MMO development, but nope.

WoW was 10 years old at that point, its also WoW.

As it stands, our expansion is just over 12 hours old.

Based on the "fix" they've talked about (which is that the community should just deal with it) and the math behind letting such a small batch of people through at a time, you are far from right, friend. Ah well.

You know this fiasco actually makes RNG look pretty good.
