Oh man I am SO with you! If I'm expected to be tanking a ton of mobs, where's my plate armor, shield and mace????? I'm just like everyone else here, running for my life in circles praying someone gets these **** adds off of me. If my prayers are not answered and I die, it's ME they blame and tell me "you gotta get better…
I was wondering like the OP about the worst MMO launches in history. Found an old article on Massively outlining the issues with MMOs that have launched in the past. http://massively.joystiq.com/2012/05/31/the-perfect-ten-worst-mmo-launches-of-all-time/ Intresting Reading... Cheers! :cool:
While it's called "Open Beta" it's really a soft launch. Betas are usually free notwithstanding paying the founders fees to get in one. You usually receive an invite/key and then go play a beta, for free. Since they are taking your money if you want to give it to them, it's a soft launch. IMHO :)
As others above have said, this is expected initial launch. With other MMOs, they have opened with tons of servers at first, then when the dust settles, some servers become ghost towns and a server merger is not far behind (ex., swtor, warhammer online, etc.) At least the game is fun when you do get in :):cool:
I'd like to know why I have to go back to the login screen just to switch characters, which places me a 3k-50k and up queue. I was already in the game, why can't I switch characters after I waited in the Queue for hours the first time. Am I not supposed to switch characters? confused.....
One thing I noticed was when the server was back up briefly that the character screen did not update. The only reason I knew it was up was because I clicked New Character and saw the server list saying mindflayer was online. I had to relog in to see my chars on mindflayer. So it's not dynamic. Good to know :)
LOL we were in blackdagger keep on last boss who was just about to meet his death but was saved by the server crash..... He only had like 1500 hp to go... then BAM.. How is that for being born under a bad sign! lol :cool:
