    LOL! WRONG. Aside from LOTRO this has been one of the SMOOTHEST mmo launches (so far) in history.

    If this is smooth........

    Comparing bad to worse doesn't make bad not bad.

    I don't recall WARs launch being bad at all. AION had queue issues although at least some people could play :P

    why? because every developer does give you TRIBBLE software? mention if your bank would have "unexpected downtimes" like this.

    so no! 3.5h downtime is not acceptable.

    LOL u must not have been at many mmo launches

    eq1: unplayable for 1-2 weeks at launch
    wow: almost totally unplayable for a week
    swg: constant crashes... constant downtime at launch for 3-10hrs at a time
    aion: 4-14hr login ques for a week and many crashes
    lotro: gotta give it to them... almost flawless
    eq2: many times , many of their server were down for 12-24hrs the first week of launch

    I'll just stop there... if you think 3.5 hrs downtime is NOT acceptable.. then you should RETIRE from mmo gaming LOL.

    Bent double, like old beggars under sacks,
    Knock-kneed, coughing like hags, we cursed through sludge,
    Till on the haunting flares we turned our backs
    And towards our distant rest began to trudge.
    Men marched asleep. Many had lost their boots
    But limped on, blood-shod. All went lame; all blind;
    Drunk with fatigue; deaf even to the hoots
    Of tired, outstripped Five-Nines that dropped behind.

    Gas! Gas! Quick, boys!---An ecstasy of fumbling,
    Fitting the clumsy helmets just in time;
    But someone still was yelling out and stumbling,
    And flound'ring like a man in fire or lime...
    Dim, through the misty panes and thick green light,
    As under a green sea, I saw him drowning.

    In all my dreams, before my helpless sight,
    He plunges at me, guttering, choking, drowning.

    If in some smothering dreams you too could pace
    Behind the wagon that we flung him in,
    And watch the white eyes writhing in his face,
    His hanging face, like a devil's sick of sin;
    If you could hear, at every jolt, the blood
    Come gargling from the froth-corrupted lungs,
    Obscene as cancer, bitter as the cud
    Of vile, incurable sores on innocent tongues,---
    My friend, you would not tell with such high zest
    To children ardent for some desperate glory,
    The old Lie: Dulce et decorum est
    Pro patria mori.

    Good timing CaptainGalt

    This thread is a little off topic, but it would be nice to get some feedback (in a new locked thread) from Cryptic
