they should just rename this game:

I don't get it.

First of all, in 2021 no one should be surprised to find queues in the first few days of LITERALLY THE MOST POPULAR MMO ON THE MARKET, especially after two years of pandemic that made it harder to dedicate new servers to it, and after experiencing a mass influx of refugees from other games.

Secondly, it's not like it is impossible to play. I just finished the MSQ myself, after playing for 3 days from 8 AM to 2 AM. I took days off work to play. And there are no queues at 8 AM.

I am aware not everyone can dedicate this amount of time to a game, but again, if you can't set a few days aside for this then I surmise that it won't also be a problem to wait a few more days for the queues to calm down. No one is chasing anyone.

that's logic, I've been saying that all of this is because there are lots of people that don't know how to deal with frustration or need some kind of emotional intelligence because there is no good in being that mad and angry towards a game like this.

people that say "I paid then I deserve" are just delusional, IF you paid, then was YOUR work to learn how things go. there are people mad complaining, and there are calm people (like us) and we are calm because WE KNEW this could happen, why in the holy f*ck people thought that the N°1 game of the moment wouldn't have queues on the launch of an xpac.

No complaints from the person that has ALREADY finished the EW MSQ... no shock there

Correct.

I do not complain. I prepared. I set my schedule and my free time so that I could do what I wanted: i.e., play the game at launch.

Next time, set aside some time for your hobby and rest assured you will be able to play. Wake up early in the morning, for example, and I can guarantee you that you will log in no problem.

If you don't put effort into it, don't be jealous of people who do.

Is this what happens to the forums following the influx of players from...that other place?

No, actually. The WoW refugees have actually been pretty good about all of this, of those that are in the new content. While frustrated, they're also not used to the fact of getting regular, proper communication from the devs, so I think the sheer amount to which SE gives us a heads up has given them enough vs. WoW devs, that they're not too put out by it.

Fair point. I admit my comment above was a bit unwarranted. I apologise.

It just annoys me seeing this amount of negativity towards such a quality expansion.

I'm definitely disappointed but, I'm not upset with SE. They couldn't really plan for this, and they couldn't predict the budget for this number of players.
