wow, 3 times in one day...Beta wasn't this bad. WTH Cryptic??
Cryptic seriously underestimated the fanbase for this game, and failed to realise that when you hand out beta invites on random sites like candy...you will have a ton of people trying to play their game. Im astounded they underestimated the fanbase, its Star Trek...wtf did you expect Cryptic?
This is rather unnerving. The biggest reason MMORPGs fail is because they release early. Post-release development is no substitute for pre-release development. And here we are, game is live, and they can't keep the server up with JUST the pre-order crowd. What do you suppose is going to happen come Tuesday?
I'm not trying to be negative, but I've seen this happen too many times. Wish I could bring the devs a pot of coffee or something.
That wasn't whining. It's called genuine concern, since I want STO to be a great success.
Well, considering many successful MMORPGs have suffered far worse during their head starts, I'd say your genuine concern is unfounded. Good news for you if it's as genuine as you say.
Takes like 20 minutes to get to character selection, nother 20min to enter the game. these pictures do not reflect my feelings or thoughts, but possibly of others:

I hope it stays up.
Wake up there at Cryptic your servers are not able to take the mass of players, upgrade your hardware^^

But really, too much angst on this thread, this last time wasn't even a crash - just a performance hiccup.

Anyway, server's back up.
