this is a good thing, means more bug fixes and server fixes :D

    You mean there were actually people in game?:confused: I've been waiting and getting kicked out of queue for the last 5 hours.

    Just means that we still are barely running above 50% uptime in US/EU prime time and this is a RELEASED MMO.

    Wanna bet it only gets 1,000x worse Tuesday?

    Hah, yeah, I had just made it back in from the qeue as well. At least they gave us notification (with lead time) and an ETA right off the bat.

    Worse for me, only 94 SP's from Lt. Commander and getting out of this craptastic Miranda. Which I'd have achieved HOURS ago if the damn server would stay up.

    Atleast we know they're working on it. I don't mind at all. I've been playing MMO's since EQ1 and it used to be a LOT worse back in the day. Every MMO I've played to-date have been just like this in the beginning. I've never played WoW but I'm sure even mighty WoW had the same problems in the beginning. It's the nature of programming and networking.

    It's better to have these downtimes now than 6 months down the line. I'm not happy about it but I know it's necessary for them to do whatever it is they're doing. It'll all work out. Just have patience.

    Great headstart program the games been off for nearly a day in headstart so far.

    Get queued to login then get kicked to join the queue again for the server to be shutdown.

    So far my lifetime subs seems like real value for money.

    I've counted at least 3 times the server's gone down since midnight. That's a bit ridiculous don't you think?

    Now that I'm really starting to get into the game this is ****ing me off....a bit.

    I too have been in MMO's since EQ1 and this is by far a much more rocky start then any of them. I dont ever remember in the span of 5 hours getting kicked 5 times, stuck in log in for an hour and crashing while zoning 4 times..

    ... I just got in for half an hour after all that queue.
    and now another maintenance?

    This is the 2nd downtime in just under a few hours time...

    I don't really mind all the maintenance and all as long as they actually fix things.

    I have had that happen in WoW in 2006 and 2007. Never played on a high pop server obviously. Hell I have had a character trapped in Outland for most of a day because it kept going down before I could get to Shat to portal out.
