Time to update the Ninja guide then.

Y'all will stabilize and figure out the fastest method for 50-60 leveling (if it is different) in... oh, less than a week's time anyway, right?

The fact that Madda has work for the entire weekend has Madda more disappointed than Nintendo's E3 conference. 

HEYOOOOOO

Amazon code just showed up. Three hours earlier than SE and Amazon said I'd get it, so I'm happy.

Ahaha, no. WoD was a total disaster. I think it was a week before I could log in without queues, frequent dc's, horrendous server lag or garrison bugs? In comparison, after two hours or so, everything seems to have stabilised here and I haven't had any issues since I logged in.

That said, I do agree with you on the character creation restrictions. Sad

I'm still eager for the work day to be over so I can get home and try to play, but I'm also hoping that all the initial Early Access issues are also ironed out within that same time-frame. Blush

We're doing some stuff for the first time ever at my work, which involves clients, of all things (something we've never had before, just donors)... and so naturally we're behind.

Taking today off was never an option for me.

But I would still gladly be at home, sleeping through the worst of it and waking up to glorious hours spent derping around in character creation and watching people go crazy. Launches, even soft launches, are so much fun.

INSTEAD I WILL SIT IN THIS THREAD AND GLOWER WHILE I BATTLE SLEEP DEPRIVATION AND FREAKING @)#*$W)(#U*$@ SERVER ERRORS ON MY WORK SOFTWARE.

That's... probably what I would've done, too. Slept until like noon or something and then popped on to try and get in. And likely stayed up later last night in the Skype RP I was in (even though most of the other folks bailed around the same time). I'm running on a lot less sleep than usual because of it, too... so I feel you on that one - taking an early lunch helped me a bunch, getting some caffeine and food in me to keep me going.

That and the fact that there's a Heavensward waiting for me when I get home. Blush

I have yet to play any mmo where a launch went without disconnects, errors, crashes, and servers getting taken offline.

Which, I dunno, maybe just means I have bad luck or I am bad luck. ;D

5 hour energy, bro. Big Grin

also yes, gaming when home. If there are still issues, I will make a glorious, overlarge dinner that will continue to feed me through the weekend so I don't have to cook again.

I learned with the launch of 1.0 that one should never take off during any launch. Every FFXI and EQ2 expansion taught me that too.

While I can't play HW yet, I already bought it so I can access the second I catch up. But you all have fun Smile

Oh I wouldn't say that. Blizzard had the same type of problems with the high pop servers at their launch. It was a mess just as crazy as this on. I was there. It sucked.

No I can confirm that war craft and it's launch of WoD was a god damn nightmare. You may not get to make extra alts but I would suffer that lock out versus not getting in for nearly a week and being dc'd in a matter of minutes and bugs galore with a new feature that was pathetic at best.

Plus SE has it so all characters can do all the classes and jobs and crafts without a problem so in theory the lockout with creating alts is understandable.
