Gilga Login server fried

Wishing death on people over something like this is really fucking low. Seriously, get help, you shouldn't be playing video games at that point.

I understand frustration, but wishing death on people over not being able to play a game they put together right away is beyond way too far.

Do people not realise that by playing during early access, you signed yourself up as guinea pigs so the dev team can see what kinks they need to work on before official date?

That's not what Early Access means.

You realize had a player not opted for early access (ie still on a ShB license) they would have the same problem.

No, not at all. I preordered because they advertised the ability to play the game early. That has not happened. If the advertisement said "Preorder so we can use you to test our servers, while understanding that you probably won't get to play," I wouldn't have done so. You see how this works? If you advertise a product, be ready to deliver it, or you risk a lawsuit, which is what should be happening soon.

they giving you 7free days, it's like a refund of the time lost, thats your compensation. never take off time during a launch, it rarely go smooth for any mmo, they wanted to upgrade server, but it's impossible to buy component atm

Sorry, but no. I work 7 days a week. They delayed the launch, then when they finally launched, the product was not what they advertised. It's 100% Square's fault, no matter how much boot you lick. I can't wait to see the lawsuits brought up for their horrible handling of this, at least as bad as Cyberpunk 2077.

A lawsuit most likely wont happen due to terms of service that you agreed on. Plus, all expansions after ARR has been like this. This isn't new. Does it suck? Yes of course. It sure does. But eventually the kinks will work itself out like always.

Honestly, this early access was way smoother than expected, unlike the previous expansions.

Don't feed the trolls. I'd just ignore them. They're too stupid to know how the world actually works.

I'm a bit amused; this is the same type of attitude that comes from the Karens who yell and threaten service workers on Black Friday because they're angry the line is long.

This is what happens with new releases. This is an MMO, millions of people play it, and a new shiny toy was just put on the market. Server demands are high, and the team is scrambling to troubleshoot. If you sign up for early access, you signed up for beta testing. You didn't agree to a perfect product, you agreed to play with a nearly-finished project.

With things like this, the dev team cannot possibly anticipate what weird problems will crop up, so this is the time they do field testing and fix problems that arise.

Grow up, Karen; it's time to realize the world doesn't revolve around you and the other grown-ups don't want to hear you complain about normal processes and procedures that you are too ignorant and willfully uninformed to understand.

From what I've been seeing out of them (including that incredibly tasteful post they submitted themselves, to the Tech Support forum no less) this concept might be a little too advanced for them.

I've been trying to actively get into Gilgamesh for the last 5 hours today. This is rather upsetting that my day off is spent working to play a game.
