Yes i realize this isn't a f2p, we all payed EARLY (a lot of us only paying 5$ early, big whoop, wanna fight about it) and NOT MORE for the pre-order bonuses. EA launch was just a bonus of laying down your purchase early. That along with your other pre-order bonus items.

p2p or not, MMO's need these EA times to stress test the servers and make sure they can hold their own audience. Wait until the actual game launch. then you can complain to your heart's content.

But a lot of you are being unreasonable regarding bugs... I can name plenty of games released within the past few years that were major sellers and are still played constantly today that started with MANY MANY MANY bugs. Skyrim, Dark Souls, WoW, Diablo 3, etc..

Do I expect a perfect launch? No. Do I expect "game-breaking bugs"? No. But I'm going to deal with it for now. Until EA ends. Then I'll start giving SE crap for it.
Are you serious?? Come on do you really believe the crap you just posted?

The pre-order bonus for this game includes early access to the release version of the game, not a stress test of the servers. THAT'S WHAT BETA WAS FOR. The fact that there are currently game breaking errors at present preventing a great deal of people from even playing the game during a period of time that we have PAID for is ridiculous. Yes I get that MMO launch's are rarely problem free but come on it's 2013, surely we're past the point of referencing WoW's launch and in fact surely game companies have learned from previous mistakes and have proper strategies in place. Error's preventing people from playing at EA that were part of Beta is unacceptable.

I also have no idea what you mean by some people only paying $5 early. The game was $30 on the SE site and that seemed to be the cheapest.
