It will be nasty in 27 minutes. Might take a lot longer to get in.

Survive, sure.

They will most likely get the crap beat out of them for the first 30-45 minutes, but they will live to see another day I'm sure.

The ppl that should be most worried are the Lineage 2 player. Been horrible lag on their servers since the betas started with Aion.

I defenitly hope that the boat's gonna float, because my inner feeling is that we'll be getting AT LEAST a huge queue time to get in (what i mean is something like 20-45 min trying over and over to log in) and AT WORST the login server will go down a few times before everyone can get it.

But as i said, i hope it'll survive. Still, my answer must be : NO.

First, you'll be required to try 30 times to log in, along with the few hundred thousand others at the same time.  
The Authentication Server will crash and burn.  There's no possible way it could not.   I hope for the sake of all mashing their keyboards right now I'm wrong.

Game servers I think will hold just fine - but regardless of if they do or don't, the game will be unplayable for the first few hours. 

Not due to lag, but due to 6 billion people standing on top of your quest. :)

If they were smart, they would make us download a last second patch, keep the download speed real slow and allow people to trickle in that way.

Any bets?

It may be a bit laggy, but they wont crash.  They have practice from the first day of open beta.

The pen is mightier than the sword if the sword is very short, and the pen is very sharp.

Dead Server Walking....It can't hold though I am sure they will minimize the downtime given thier efforts so far.

Considering what it was like at the opening of Open Beta... I don't have high hopes. However, I didn't have high hopes for AoC either, and they opened up headstart with no server crashes, and little lag. Was a big shocker, even though they were a bit late, and had some downtime the next day, but the opening was nice. Hoping for a repeat with Aion.

 It would seem as if the servers have run away from the first mass log-in.  :(
