Best part is now my friend is 15 levels higher then me and I will take weeks to catch up because the beta client that was more stable and allowed people to play keep character into a release.
I know this is a stretch, but lets say the building holding the servers got struck by lightning, and so they have been working on the servers off and on. You get mad because you can't play the game before the official release date. You didn't pay extra for that right. You just preordered like everyone else. So you get mad at something that is beyond everyone's control.

Whether it be 2006, 2013, 2020, shit happens. If we had to pay extra for the early release, then get mad. If this is still a problem 1 day after the official release, then light your torches and go after SE. But right now, go enjoy another game, a book, netflix (I have made a good amount of progress on Doctor Who), something else. In the words before FFXI:

Exploring Vana'diel (Eorzea for FFXIV) is a thrilling experience. During your time here, you will be able to talk, join, and adventure with many other individuals in an experience that is unique to online games.
That being said, we have no desire to see your real life suffer as a consequence. Dont' forget your family, your friends, your school, or your work.


Yeah we haven't played, but many people on the forums have spent their day complaining about not getting on. Things could be fixed tomorrow and this will be all for naught.
