When are you people going to learn that "Early Access" is corporate marketing speak for "Stress Test"?

True enough but doesn't make it a good practice or the issues anymore acceptable. Especially since several of them that seem to be causing the most strife could have been easily avoided by a little critical thinking. HW I recall having a few issues. Things like getting DC'd from that first dungeon a few times mid run, a few server errors here and there but nothing like this. Since 11:30 I've played for 20 mins and spent the rest of the time waiting in huge queues.

Didn't play GW2 but Legion was the first and only wow expansion I know of that was able to go smoothly. Other WoW launches were disasters. I remember in Wrath, I got stuck on a boat over to northrend and had to call a gm to get me unstuck it was that bad.

This is XIV's second expansion, I'm sure they'll figure it out sooner or later, but look how long it took even WoW

Thats interesting. I guess SE should have hired some former WoW employees to learn about the hiccups of previous launches so they could prevent something like this from happening. Heavensward was such a smooth launch that SE might have taken SB launch for granted.

Putting the insurance so early gave no one time to separate and spread out. An incredibly bad oversight and they will do nothing to fix. Have not seen a launch handled this bad since age of Conan. This was 100 percent avoidable.

I'm still gonna wait for the full launch before doing story mode. Till then, PotD and leveling for me~

MSQ? I would like to be logged in for more than 5 min without being dc. Oh and maybe to get back in fast instead of getting auto booted mid dungeon then staring at 2500 queue because the game will not let you resume your session.

The problem is that SE had/has no intention of adding enough servers to handle everyone trying to get in today. Many will play out this patch then leave again so it makes no sense to them to waste the money on more servers. Anyone who was around when arr went out of beta knows how this goes.
