It's called life, get one.

What is this life you speak of? What level is it available? Do I have to raid for it?

There is no raid, it's all endgame baby! ;)

guess the server is fully back up now so the forums will be very quiet now, but don't worry, I will still be here to read the forums since I am stuck at work. 

 

I'm glad to hear it ! At least we can chat together while everyone is trying to log into that fail game which is copy of aion/wow/tera.

I remember when WoW launched and it took me 3 hours just to register a new account. Then it was another 5 hours before I could log in and create a char. Popular MMO's will always have problems on the first day of access. It actually bodes well because it shows GW2 has sold a lot of copies. It'll settle down eventually.

This is very true, SWTOR had launch issues because of its popularity. And if ANet is having the same issues, then its very good for them I guess. Since its box sales that is important to ANet. 

We all know they have experimented with 1 million consecutive log ins, and they had major problems during BWE 1 , so if this is more than 1 million players, then good job ANET considering its only for those that Pre-purchased. For all those Pre-orders they still got the 1 day headstart, then its the official launch. 

Also considering that most don't Pre-purchase so, the number of players is truly staggering.

you do know that WOW still have over 8 millions of players and TERA and AION also have a big following. I really do hope ANET gets atleast 3 or more millions of boxes sold. For the 3 hours that I played this morning, its definitely a fun game. 

PROS

Well at exactly 12:00 AM EST i logged in last night, so id say that was pretty awesome

I was able to fly through 4 character creations and grab names, all smooth, quick, no problem

I was able to play last night for 3 hours until i went to bed, no queues, disconnects, lag, choppiness.

CONS

I got stuck in a repeatable tutorial mission, i had to kill the boss 4 times, and still would not zone me into the main zone. I had to relog and come back, beat it one more time, and finally got zoned out of the tutorial zone after the final boss.

I could not play with my buddy because we got thrown in "overflow" servers and could not be in the same instance because of the mass amount of people

This morning servers are down

Overall

This is not that bad of a PRE LAUNCH, i was able to accomplish my main goals of getting in right away, get my names, and play. Beyond that, well, few days of hiccup is not the end of the world

The server i picked was also the most packed one, it was full, take a guess.

Well, I bought the game by my self and took me only few hours to get boring of it. There is nothing new. Oh yeah " events" pretty awesome ..not. I've seen that already in f2p games like perfect world or how it was called .. Dodge /aiming thats tera already. So wondering what kind of NEW thing have this game. Really wish I could get my money back. 

200 post in reply of an obvious and blatant liar trolling you...

Why are you even getting serious and argueing with someone a pathetic as making up obvious and evident LIES on top of the rest of the hyperbole and missinfomation to brush up a "list of complaints" in attempt to smear over attack the reputation a game he has just proven to despise (no doubt as usual in favour of the other MMO he currently plays) and most likely has not even bought GW2?

The least one should have already stopped  bothering, when he claim ANet didnt to anyhting or made no contact to player when the contrary is true.

There are enough real player with actual problem complaining. Why bother about the obvious hater trying to push the train downhill?

Please let them enjoy their hollow moment of glory... all those months of not being able to lessen the quality of the game through sheer force of will, right now they must be positively orgasmic.

Personally speaking it's been the 2nd worst Launch, Anarchy Online was and shall ever be eteched in my memory.

I know that GW2 is a good game, but there have literally been hundreds of MMO's released over the years, developers supposedly learn something from each new one that hits the market, sure you get a glitch here and there, but accessibilty should not be one of them, it's one of the things that is really really going to upset your playerbase the most, seeing that login page and knowing that the damn thing isn't going to let you in no matter what, now thats annoying.

Anyway I really do wish I had waited, guess that was my own fault for believing all the hype that this was some kind of Holy Grail of MMO's, I should have known better and listened to my brain and not my heart.

I'd say so. Trying to buy the game I kept getting a 502 bad gateway. I resubmitted 3 times before I noticed the light on my phone indicating I had new emails. Sure enough, registration actually went through and has charged me 3 times and given me 3 serial keys. 

Furthermore, I tried to register the 1st key and it thew another error. Now it tells me the key is already registered so I get no opportunity to create an account.

Support ticket in.... guess I'll wait.....

Creating alt accounts to simply troll is kind of frowned upon.  Apologies for all the edits people.

Happy gaming today!

I logged in right at midnight EST and created 5 characters and then played one for a couple hours without any issues on Tarnished Coast. Then I fell asleep. Woke up and read about major issues and downtime, etrc... logged in fine and have been playing since. But still, people seem to having pretty big issues and ArenaNet should have been better prepared. It's not theire first multiplayer game and the industry is not an infant anymore.

I really love this game, but I can't cut them any slack on big issues like some are reporting, assuming they are real issues.

I know what it's like to be the one having problems and being told "No issues here, must be you!", and that sucks.

Hpoefully they get it all straightened out for everyone soon. And now back to playing.

Why do people flip out over something like this? Go to the gym. Go eat breakfast and login in later. Lol.

Overall yes that is what any sane person should do, without any doubt. If one can't you are unstable and a dork.

That said, this is like sport, we watch and rank. To those that say "all the rest launch like this", hey if that makes you sleep better good for you, but you're fooling yourself. Their first game launced pefectly, no reason not to remember that and there have been several since that launched well and launches have been improving as we know to.

To say this isn't launch and just head start. You again are living a lie. It's live, the characters are for keeps, they do this so it's not even a bigger cluster come those who didn't pre-order. Seriously, are you unable to call a spade a spade? With my somewhat pointed view I don't wish harm on Arena Net, just calling balls balls and strikes strikes.

It's a rough start, you could see it coming because we've all been there done it. Many of us have programed to some extent. You know you dont' want to be going live on anything with patches and tests happening days and hours before launch that are really untested and you have a in-stone live date. That is not good. That is living by the seat of your pants. That covers all programming ever done.

This one wil have some egg on their face AND IT SHOULD. They didn't live up to their promises of when they would release their game. Some force pushed them into launch and we probably know who.... Give me an "N", give me a "C"....

BTW: can someone enlighten me on HOW these guys that are whining about "I payed extra for the headstart!!" managed to do that?

I prepurchased from Amazon in Germany and had the games code at the 7th april in my hands for exact 49€.

The Preorder and the Release versions costs EXACTLY the same price with the difference that:

-  the preorder gets the one day headstart and a digital item extra FOR FREE

- the prepurchase version gets a 3 days headstart and a digital item (heroes band is what I got) FOR FREE aswell!

In my opinion they either doesn't aknowledge that they purchased the digital deluxe version that gives them all the extra goodies(bank golem and the other digital items) and costs more because of that

OR

they purchased it by a retailer that ripped them off by selling the game for a higher price so HE can take advantage of his costumers for the prepurchase (not ANet).

Anyway... back to the game again! Have a nice day! ^_^
