There are server issues and the servers are artificially capped to prevent them from going unstable and preventing ANYONE from playing. Right now they're doing their best to make sure SOME people can play and it's really unfair of you to blame them for trying to make the best of an unexpected situation. If you're really so desperate to play then do what other people are doing; roll on a free server, usually Japanese, and then do a character transfer later when everything settles down.
No launch goes without errors and if you're really going to get so up-tight because you can't play immediately, then yeah, please go play TOR; that'll free up server space for people who are actually willing to calmly wait it out.

You need to stop talking. I have participated in every single major MMO launch since Everquest and NEVER and i mean NEVER have I seen a system implemented that specifically limits players from playing due to overpopulation. At this point, causing the servers to crash would be a blessing due to the sheer amount of bots and AFKers that have taken refuge after their successful spam attempts. Server crashes are a given among the mmo community and have been historically expected. As are server queues. Even trash games like never winter nights online experienced a better launch than this 'triple A' title at this point. I am highly disappointed, as you should be as well at this point. However, your head is too far in the clouds because, you think SE walks on water. People like you are the reason that companies continue to get away with stunts like this.

And I'm surprised people like you are even still here bitching about it. Clearly from your post you're a connoisseur of video-games and think there are better ones, so go play one and leave the rest of us alone. I have never understood why if people are dissatisfied with a game they will bitch like a mofo on the forums instead of simply leaving. I don't think Se 'walks on water', but I do think that they deserve the chance to sort things out before before going over-entitled retard on them. IF in a week or so they haven't sorted themselves out, then fine, they had a chance and I'll leave. But I'm not going to yell about it like a little bitch.

So, you resort to calling me a 'little bitch' for listing primary concerns? The fact still remains that you're stubborn, blind and oblivious to the issues at hand. Just go ahead and go back to sleep for a week while the rest of us voice our opinions because, when you resort to insulting me in that manner, you invalidate yourself entirely. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

[Xanphal]

Actually, I called the people running around yelling about it all little bitches. But I assume you took the insult to be aimed at you because you have been; I believe that makes the insult self-inflicted. Voice a concern is one thing; but the majority of people on the forums haven't been 'voicing concerns', they've been yelling, screaming, threatening and throwing tantrums. Throwing a tantrum because you can't play a game? I know three-year-olds better behaved.

And stop insulting me because I'm willing to wait for the issues to be resolved rather than screaming for them to be fixed now (nownwownownow-omg-i'll-quit-do-what-i-say-NOW). I i'm not even sure you HAVE an argument.

They knew it was coming, it started doing this at open Beta there is no excuse for this. My character was on diabolos but SE transferred me to Hyperion (1.0 player.) Now I can't even create a character on diabolos (I was already on there as I stated) but now I can't play with my wife or friends from FFXI that I haven't played with in years... They simply could have pushed back early access and the game a week instead of all the bullsh*t we're currently having to deal with. knowing I can't play ahead of time is better than telling me I can't play when I want, they are the ones running the server I paid for a service and they aren't delivering, again.

I agree with you there; they definitely should have been better prepared. 'specially since there was a server cascade failure in phase 2, i think it was, so they knew what would happen if the servers started getting over-loaded. To be honest I think the biggest issue is the afkers; if people weren't afking on the servers then they would probably be cycling over as per usual with the 100person queues that are in place.
