I simply cannot log in - my request doesnt even reach authentication. I heard from my friend who was able to log in really early this morning that the game is laggy as hell.

Not going to score the game on this, but so far ... extremely bad of course. Going back to The Secret World (which had a 10/10 launch) for a while, but itching to try GW2 ( though I don't think I will like the cartoony "little mouse characters" things, but we'll see). I loved gw1 to bits, but have a bad feeling about gw2 - especially now after tsw launch.

The reason TSW probably had a better launch was because no one bought it.

enjoying GW2 and TSW myself , both are great games no need to add stupid comments like this guy , really tells someones lack of education when you have to bash something because your fanboy butt is hurt because of a less then stellar launch.

Don't like the game because it's too hard for you ok cool don't make comments moves on and play GW2 , so yeah back to GW2 LOL.

Lol gona summarise the responses in order of appearance.

Coman, I'm pretty sure 99% of the players prepurchased for head start.

Well yes I know, but I was not the one conserned about playing 3 days ahead of "regular" consumers :P. Just pointed out he had still plenty of headstart left.

Tsw had issues, they allllllll do.

To be fair I know it will clear up, but TSW did not have issues like this.

And had like 10 % of GW2 traffic ? Not trying to defend the game, just pointing out the facts. The game will get a fair share of critiscm from me on Monday when the things calm down.

GW2 launch failure? Nonsense! I've been playing without a problem as soon as I transfered from Jade Quarry to Crystal Desert. No lag and no disconnects.

Edit: now I switched back to Jade Quarry and no lag and no disconnects. Forget the haters.

Can't log in (EU) from Germany.

3 hours ago it was working so I guess I will just have to wait until the server zerging has stopped.

Drama much?

A company can not anticipate these issues with hundreds of thousands of players trying to play at the same time.  No amount of stress test will catch all issues so give them a break its been a few hours and everyone knows the old addage "you never play on patch day" pertains to launches as well.

Hell Ive been rolled back at least 4 times now and one of the times I lost 3 levels but I didnt bitch I jsut went about repeating the same content, its the price we pay for paying on launch day.

I had the same issues with TSW, half of the quests in kingsmouth and savage coast did not work.  And I didnt bitch there either.
