No top of that. All this B***** you're doing is preemptive, because the 15th is to-f****-morrow! true. id hate to be in the house of the whiners on christmas eve night

The kind of issues that matter are the people who have been invited that have account errors and can't make it work. That is the kind of problems that are real and on BW's end, not you crying about your entitlement.

I read somewhere that a BW employee said they already have 2.5 million players subscribed to the website, that's a lot of people, they let that many people on at once, servers will be unbalanced, there will be kill stealing, crashes, lag, etc. I'd rather wait a few days and have a more enjoyable experienced then to login and it be crashing every five minutes, plus the game will be out by next week anyways. I am just happy we are only a few days away from initial launch!

Someone said they can see other video game companies doing this staggered EGA thing in the future. I think that makes sense, because look at the complaints. RIFT had problems with lag, server overload, servers crashing. AION had problems with lag, server overload, servers crashing. WoW had problems with lag, server overload, servers crashing. SW:ToR has problems with QQ on the forum because people want to play earlier than they were promised. I think it's easy to pick which of those 4 examples is the best. Even if you say it's a customer service fail, that just means that future game releases will tell you some kind of rough schedule of when you'll get early access. Maybe they'll just say it's based on your sign-up time with everyone being in by the early access date. Maybe they'll give you a schedule or even a number in line. No matter how you look at it, get used to it because staggered EGA is here to stay because it's not a real issue. Player perception is. So if you smack them in the face with exactly how it'll happen, there's even less room for whining than there is now.

Honestly I think the guy has the patience of a saint to put up with some of the stuff I've seen over the past couple of days. I certainly don't envy his job.

patience young padawans. This isn't the end of the world. I haven't gotten in either, am I anxious do play? YOU BET! But it's no one's fault, leave the poor man alone. I'm sure he's worked very hard and that were any of us in his place getting 15,000,000 tweets saying "Why haven't I got my invite yet?" "I want to PLAY!" you'd be a little short tempered too. Those tweeters ARE in fact distracting him from his job (which is not to respond to whiners on an issue that's already been made clear). A lot of people are burning our bridges here with the devs. Rampant rudeness and whinning like this can irreparably damage the dev / community relationship for the future. Treat others the way you would want to be treated yourselves. Oh, and before I forget... WHEN DO I GET MY INVITE EMAIL?!?!

they gave us 2 MORE DAYS of early access. What else could you ask for?
