All this build up, for nothing...talked about it for 3 months or more, and the farthrest I can get after 25 login attempts,(yes I counted them) I got to my character listing 4 times.. That's it!!
They should have done this in installments, oh did I mention the 1 1/2 hr download patch , and that with high speed cable internet connection.. WHAT A TOTAL LET DOWN......

    Yeah, if only Cryptic knew when the launch date was, they could have prepared...

    You're preaching to the choir. We're all pretty much giving up on it tonight because the servers can't take much more demand. What an awful launch Cryptic.

    I'm quite sick of it myself, So far I could have bought a fully functional game for what I spent on the Starter Pack and additional Zen plus renewing my gold membership and I could have had 5 hours in another game instead of patching and watching the start up screen :/

    Shame that with all the money-grabbing schemes they have in this game they can't afford half-decent servers.

    Expecting a perfect launch with something this huge is bad. You only set yourself up for disappointment.

    If only there was some way to anticipate these things. Cryptic should obviously begin investing in a time machine, so they can travel into the future to know what to expect, since there's clearly no other way to fathom such things.

    Seriously, at this point, they should just turn off the forums whenever there is a season/expansion launch. You could power the servers with how much whining there has been.

    Don't forget the whining about the whining.

    I don't mind issues with game launches as long as there is a forum to read. Though, finding humor and entertainment off of people's tears is not one of my finer qualities.

    Are you kidding? The hissy fits are the best part of season/expansion launches. I'd hate to miss all this emo doom filled melodrama. :P

    You have a good point. And hell, maybe Cryptic can study it, and find a real way to power the game with the whining. I retract my statement! Let the whining commence!

    Agreed but why stop there? Why not power it with the whining about the whining to achieve 200% efficiency? Hopefully it will all be fixed by tomorrow.

    its true there is a lot of drama on the login issues with the launch i can agree with them that the developers have a test server so how they managed to TRIBBLE this up is anyone's guess but an mmo is an mmo i have yet to see one that does not have immediate issues the moment a new expansion appear. Who knows maybe they got Defera fixed and not as buggy......although i am going to guess probably not, but we can get our hopes up and find out.

    I didn't even want a perfect launch, just a launch where I could play for 5 minutes before getting kicked off the server and unable to do anything else.

    I've played many MMOs at launch, and at other significant content milestones that haven't been plagued by nearly as many issues as STO has had today.

    For me this is a bit inexcusable because the game has become almost completely unplayable due to being nearly impossible to get it, load screens taking to long it kicks you out, the UI failing all together making equipping items as well as accepting and completing missions to fail, the lag can hit suddenly and be quite the pain until it clears, not to mention that i've already been angry about the misleading advertisement of the Legacy of Romulus in general.

    It's not a full faction, the Character creator is a terrible new UI and nothing more making it less than the complete overhaul they claimed it to be, the Borg skin looks horrendous with any of the open options, the remans look terrible (especially the females), and frankly with this many server issues, things aren't looking great for the launch of neverwinter.

    Granted there is a lot of really great stuff in this update, but it's hardly every thing they've claimed it to be so add on top of it the usual bugs and the difficulty of even getting in to play, and i'd say people have the right to be a little upset, but then again after seeing how bad champions online is right now, i really didn't expect this to go well any way.


    With all that said though hopefully they can get things straightened up a little in the coming weeks....
