They could have tested the game for 2 years, theres still no way too simulate the actual release - i would bet that the number of people that played in the Beta/Stress Tests didnt even match those that ALL tried too join the game at the very same time today, So i expected a bumpy start im sure by the time the full release hits everything will be sorted the start is ALWAYS the hardest part of a games release

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

To an extent I agree, but there was simply no way to expect that amount of traffic. The stress tests never had this magnitude of players by a long freaking shot. I've been almost constantly in overflow... something that has never happened during any of the BWE's or Stress Tests. :\

Totally agree with the last statement though, that is going to be one hell of a slap in the face. Especially since most of us with head start access are arguably more... passive / understanding of these issues. Imagine the normal player base once it goes full live tongue.gif
