GOA will sort it out later today I'm sure. Everyone bumrushed their shit and it's been pretty slow, just like the patching etc. I don't think they were expecting this many people to go gung ho on Day 1 beta at the every beginning.
Yeah right. I don't even think I need to mention how much of a stupid idea it was for them to open beta registration hours before the open beta started (which by the way I doubt anyone in Europe is playing), obviously everyone is going to rush in and try to get in.
And then they added new to their website basically saying "Everything is broken, we never even bothered optimizing anything and you might... probably... actually you will run into a whole bunch of bugs that make it impossible to register. We'll probably get round to fixing it... Sometime!". Then shortly afterwards they took the registration page down.
And then not long ago they said they would only be letting a handful of people into the game at a time.
Great going GOA! Despite having "seven years of experience" and proclaiming themselves as the kings of MMORPG releases they managed to fuck basically everything up. I know most MMORPGs have crappy launches like this (you'd think at least someone in the industry would have learned from this by now), but this is probably the worst I have seen so far!
I only have 3 days off (including today) before I have a solid week of work with very little time in between, and I probably wont get many days off until these game is fully released. $10 says I wont actually get to play this game in those 3 days (and probably not until the game is released). Good thing I got a refund on the game I pre-ordred (I'm not fucking preordering something for a few bonuses I'm not even given the chance to use, I'll buy the game when it is released to the public).
