Im going too concentrate a bit more on PvE, need some bags - i got loads of blues and high level (65+) items from WvWvW in the bank but my bags are constantly full - couldnt find the proper bank too put them in lol

I wonna 100% the starting zone area at the very least, actually start some of the Story quests as well

Yes, yes, those evil corporate snobs took our money and now are just there to rub our faces in the dirt.
If they thought having a couple extra servers up at launch would have helped, I'm sure they would have done it.
Also, judging by other headstart-type launches I've done, the regular release a couple days from now won't be anywhere near as problematic. They are passing one of their biggest hurdles right now. It will get much smoother, I'd bet.

Don't talk down to me.

I'm just getting really, really fed up with high-budget games not working the way they're supposed to, despite extensive testing.

The actual release should be... interesting. If they're struggling now, the actual release is going to be one hell of a rude awakening.

I will be savouring the starting areas of PvE and trying to get a grip on the scale of crafting/itemizing etc... Will move over to WvW either if I get bored of PvE (I often do) or if I hit a decent level where I can actually contrib there

I find WvW leveling slower then PvE, fwiw.

I think the servers went down because they had cameras at my house and saw that I woke up early to log in and set up my characters/reserve names. They must be using the same cameras that my co-workers use to determine precisely when the worst time to call me about system issues... i.e. 30 minutes after going to sleep.

Oh well, I needed to finish off some things in GW1 anyway... of course, they brought the servers online about 30 minutes after I went to sleep... I would have just stayed up and then called it a day without event if it weren't for me stupidly thinking the problems would occur early on and be taken care of after 5-6 hours... that's what I get for thinking.

Hey, I can't login right now either hence my presence! However I'm aiming on the constructive side of things since arenanet has built up seventeen lbs of goodwill with me through beta
