Sounds like someone is new to MMOs. - This kind of thing happens ALL THE TIME. Companies basically have to 'guess' how bad a beta rush will be, and you should know how accurate guess work is. Compared to the closed betas here, the rush for open is a lot larger. There's really not much a company can do to plan for that. They just have to be prepared to deal w/ it if it comes. As said earlier, just sit back & relax. The game will be up by 10-11, no doubt. Give them some time to fix it, network problems don't usually fix themselves. |

For the life of me, I don't find that movie the least bit interesting. Seems like a modern take on the whole "Running Man" concept. Although, I suppose considering how bad the movie "Running Man" was compared to the novella "Gamer" can't really be worse. |

It is kinda funny, you give away 200k beta keys, sell 200K pre-orders know you are gonna have 400k eager players trying to login and you have a login /account server that supports maybe 10k and the bandwidth for maybe 20k... Well hopefully this helps them realize what they need in place for launch

He just put that up on Twitter, So the link takes you to a new page, here are the instructions: To update your game password: 1. Log in to your NCsoft Master Account. ....the plaync.com account management page has been down for 10+ minutes :)
EDIT: This just in... They realize their servers are under heavy load :)

Just a small problem with this. The Plaync.com account management is used by ALL of their games. This one little open beta event has taken down account management for all of their NA games. |

Just got in cue for Siel (about 5-10 min. ago now). Now at race select screen. Hope all can log in and have a great time^^ BTW, there are a few explanations of what QQ'ing is. Essentially, it's raging and throwing a tantrum. Some say it comes from Warcraft II when defeated players would "Alt + Q + Q" to auto exit match and program. Also, it has some resemblence to crying eyes... with tears streaming out the side of them (but, I think the gaming context is more accurate). In any case, it just means to whine/complain/irrationally rage against something. |

QQ is an emoticon. Its 2 eyes with tears coming out of the corner (the tail of the Q)

For some reason the OP believe if an OBT launch 40 minutes late is considered abnormal in MMORPG. LOL this is actually doing pretty well in mmorpg OBT history. They knew many would try to log on, that was why they had keys, and yet it still got congested at first. It is all up and running now anyways. I wouldn't want to think about what would happen if they didn't use keys in OBT, probably be down for hours if it was freely open. |

I want to thank the OP for this thread.
You have done me a great service today.
I wish you well in being able to login at some point.
*note* I love "block" its my favorite feature here just like /ignore is my favorite IN game feature of most MMO's and no the OP is not who I put on block.
Thanks again. Being able to choose the skills you want to use, offers much less variety than pre-made class based systems. -Future Game Developer |

Hence the reason I wrote "Also, it has some resemblence to crying eyes... with tears streaming out the side of them (but, I think the gaming context is more accurate)." in the very post you quoted.
I'm not just making up the Warcraft connection, either. These aren't the best sources, but whatever:
Contrary to popular belief, QQ is not a set of crying eyes. It actually originated with the advent of Warcraft II. On battlenet, you could press ALT+Q+Q to immediately exit the match and program. Thus the term "QQ" was to tell people to just quit because they are unskilled. The term later developed and lost it's origin and is usually mistaken as crying eyes. In contemporary gamer culture, QQ has become the mainstream emoticon for crying eyes, though it is still often used in it's traditional sense. - http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=qq
This term came from the Warcraft series. The quick way to exit out of the game and enter back into the chat lobby was to press alt then Q twice, hence QQ. It also vaguely resembles an emote of crying eyes. |
