Sad that it's not gonna happen. Lets hope next weekend they've fixed their issues. |

Rather unfortunate that they are not telling us what kind of technical problems they have encountered. And I am actually wondering if the people over at Frogster know what technical problems they've encountered.

A bit of a disaster for them TBH, especially considering how many want to hate them anyhow. It's just given fuel to the flamethrowers. Not exactly the PR victory they must have been aiming for.

"The cancellation was not due to load problems caused by the large number of potential players."
They don't even know how many keys they provided for event , thats happens when company behinds f2p mmos trying to launch p2p mmo. |

I don't really care because the Patriots are playing in the Superbowl tonight and that is all that really matters today, but how do you have a game that has been out for a year have trouble launching a 2 day event. I wonder what has changed so drastically that they would have this kind of technicle error and if it'll effect the beta weekend in the US next weekend. |

I was a little sad to see this as I was looking forward to it. Now, I'm not one of those losing their minds over it, and it's more of an "ah well" thing, but the down side is this is not going to bode well for them. The unfortunate part of the MMORPG world today is something goes wrong, even a tiny thing and the self entitled whiners out there just create a snow ball of bad press about a game. It really is a shame that it is how things are, even when completely un-justified.

I had brought my kettle up to my room for easy-mode coffee for the event...
Oh well.
*pours cup and looks at my downloaded games sadly* |

Hope for those playing they have this sorted by this weekend or it will be unfortunate for a game already with a troubled past. We all have seen how bad preview / betas and launch can absolutely kill a game these days. On the flip side frogster sucks anyways and sounds like they have zero clue as to what is going on so for the US players this could be a good sign. |

It's disappointing for sure and I feel for those that were so excited they molded a schedule around the event. I myself am no less excited about trying it out once it does work, crazy things happen with 1's & 0's.
Other than some background drama like a lawsuit I would guess a major bug in recently localized content is the culprit. I wonder if the build planned for the event had some of the new changes from Korea and hence would have been localized just recently. That's giving everyone involved the benefit of the doubt of course as I would certainly hope they were testing long before this event.  |

Originally posted by Vesavius It took some digging to find it, but I was lucky to find it quickly ^_^ I could recall you making comments like this. Seems like you're exactly the person you're describing you don't understand only when it comes to games you yourself don't admire, looking at your posting and stance towards TOR :-)
As for the sneak peek weekend canceled, kinda odd, I can't recall any last-minute canceling happening earlier with other MMO's as they've been doing here, not really good to make a first impression. Then again, whiners and haters will always make every mishap a huge thing and gloat or cry about it whether that's regarding TERA or TOR or WoW or any other game. And some people will be annoyed because they planned their free time this weekend to have been playing TERA. Then again, suck it up, it's not as if there won't be other beta weekends. Nothing really lost here when next time things go smooth and people can play. |

Should I be worried I live in the EU and pre-ordered?
Takes them 24 hours to fix nothing and beat around the bushes?
Those people do not belong in the gaming industry.

I honestly think it would have been better if it was load issue. Problem with the database ? I would have thought they do some trail runs before the event. It is hard to imagine nothing shows up at trial runs.I also wonder why they don't have a backup system. They also mentioned they were replacing hardwares ? how is that connect to the database issue ? |

WIth all due respect, you DONT go around distributing keys and promising a sneak peek event and then cancel it due to your lack of foresight into the potential issues and inadequate handling of the situation. This makes me not want to check it out anymore - literally. Companies should have more brains than that So what happens come May 12th? Once you bought the game they will say you have to wait for another few months before they iron out the kinks that just 'happened" to pop up out of the blue?! Even BW launched a faily smooth TOR while having zero experience with MMO and just getting their hands wet and these guys cant do it? That's a joke and im not laughing... |

Sucks for the EU community =( Hopefully EU can get decent pings to the NA servers. The EU publisher is amateur at best it seems, from past performance and now this. Hopefully En Masse can do better, if not this game is dead in the water. They probably lost a good chunk of the EU players from this weekends fiasco. Does not inspire confidence when you cant pull off a two day ( 8 hours a day ) event with out the servers going balls up. I had thought about preordering, was gonna see after this weekend. I still may pre order, but I will wait and see how the 1st CBT weekend comes off. Hopefully En Masse has taken note and has all their ducks in a row for next weekend. Anyways good luck EU players. Hate to see what looks like a good game get tarnished by such a poor publisher =(
