Give it time guys

[Manafont]

the game is a hit right now so many people want to join,this is more than SE expected so they are trying to work the bugs out as best as they can. Sometimes clearing one bug brings up a new bug. In a week when all the launch stuff is over we will be back to smooth playing.

More than SE expected? You do realize this is Early Access...and people had to preorder or be legacy to get in....so they knew exactly how many people to expect to want to play...

This reminds me of an old United Parcel order-fulfillment TV commercial, where the Brand New Company with a Brand New Product launches their website and are sitting there watching the order-ticker click from "0" to "1" <cheers> to "5" <more cheers> to "27" <cheers with a question mark attached> to "78" <silence> to "1592.".....then the counter starts to spin wildly.

It's good to be optimistic OP but you're bordering on delusional. SE knew what kind of numbers to expect, all they had to do was assume worst case scenario (every 1.0 plus every preorder playing) and they would have a benchmark to prepare for. To be blunt, I don't expect this congestion to get better until after free access has ended and only the people willing to pay are left. From what I've seen there are far more players that want to play than the servers are capable of handling. I'm not talking about duty finder, I'm talking about simply being able to log in, I have yet to log in without hitting a queue or getting 1017'd a bunch of times first. (I don't even try when they are limiting logins, there's no point) At this point I'm assuming that the people in charge of the servers are pants on head retarded and our only hope is the population diminishing slightly.

Wait till tuesday,when all the 1.0 people,including me try to log in.SE is really dropping the ball here.

There was a surge in pre-orders at last minute.

Also you can not buy physical copies/pre-orders here, they are all sold out. So download is only option. there was a 24% influx in the last 2 days o people deciding and it shot them over. Our NA/EU servers are at full compacity, Japanese/Asia/Oceanic are not.

You do realize people can preorder last minute? you do realize SE doesn't instantly get the numbers? you do realize the retailers already have the codes and they just print them out? you do realize you dont actually have to preorder to get an EA code right? stop assuming

Just the opposite. Your title should say "Give it MORE time guys". SE has had years of development as well as alpha/beta testing TIME to secure the appropriate infrastructure. Players are now being robbed of early-access playtime, which is a contractual benefit for pre-ordering the game.

They don't need more time. They need more common sense.
