NA/EU character list down again

[Scarzi]

Every time an online game launches, you'll find people who say it's the worst launch in history. At this point it's just like Reality Television. It's always going to be there, and it's always going to be retarded.

name one MMO that has had major errors that have locked tens of thousands of players out for over a week. Name one, the biggest MMO of all time has server congestion fixed in less then 36 hours. So please name one, because at this point this makes Neverwinter launch look like they knew what they were doing.

World of Warcraft. The launch was a train wreck. I know, because I was there. Anyone else who was there will tell you the same thing.

Hard time logging into the full servers? WoW's servers weren't even up most of the time. And for months after launch it was plagued with tons errors. The one that annoyed me the most was a bug which locked you into the looting animation. That took them a year to fix.

He's right about that, my account from launch (November or December 2004 i think) has 37 free bonus days on it from back then due to all the server crashes on Deathwing US =p

You mean the original that was a decade ago when this kind of mass MMO was non existent? And every expansion was fixed in less then 36 hours and had 10x+ more players. That one? Comparing this launch to launch when the wheel was being invented is a fair comparison with a 10 year difference in knowledge / technology / programming. GTFO

WOW launch wasn't as bad as this one. You were still able to login albeit with a queue, but latency was bad and would get disconnected frequently. They fixed it after a week or less. And, they did something that was pretty much unheard of for a gaming company. They gave you free days everytime a bad thing happened. When it came to customer service, it slapped another Japanese company (SOE for EQ) in the face as a lesson on how to do things right.

EU wow had some lag on it and some crashes

but atleast they didnt plainly lock out players like here
the game is great tho to easy but plainly saying go away we dont want to increase server bandwitdh cause where to greedy to get more servers please wait 5 hours before you can log into a queue system for another 1 hour wait

sorry not done if this isnt fixed soon * they havent even tried it other then saying WHERE ABOUT TO also days ago* wel lets just say i see 1.0 happening again -.- wich whould be a real damn shame

How sad. I really feel bad for Yoshi and the Development team. To think they basically redesigned a completely new MMO from the ground up in a short period of time, and actually delivered a game whose potential seems to be that of awesomeness, and then ... this happens.

Is there any way this could have been foreseen and prevented? @ poster above me... Sim City Online was pretty bad at launch.

Oh god, do I cherish that launch. I was there too, and I swear to you I think I almost lost my cool with that one. Blizzard had one hell of a bad launch, and yes that loot animation bug took forever to fix. The complaining about server stability was SO BAD on the forums that they actually took the forums down for a bit. HAHA! The good ole days.
