ScramblesTD Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 I suppose that us early September people should wait until tomorrow then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antiuna Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I'm curious what each cohort of invites looks like. Have they even made it through the first day? About how far are they on inviting the 21st crowd? Approximately how many folks have they been letting in each hour? are they scaling that number up or down or to the side? Statistics, baby! FEED MY CRAVING FOR YOUR DATA! *ahem* I mean, it could give us an approximate idea on when we should start spamming F5 and loading up on the chips.

beefyandbeef Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I preordered on my birthday july 22, hope i get in today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaGicBush Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) Its simple, It's YOUR fault for not preordering early they said like 3+ months ago they would let people in depending on when you pre-ordered. Did you seriously think you would pre-order in nov-dec and get in on day 1? They cannot let everyone in on day one because it would overload the servers. For you people complaining its obvious you have never played an MMO on launch or you'd know what would happen with ALL those people logging in at the same time. Funny I have been through quite a few launches(Aion, Rift, WAR) and never really had issues on day one, besides maybe a server crash that came back up within a hour or two.

Dinosysen Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Yes they do. Want proof? Rift had 59,000 physical pre-orders at launch according to VGchartz. According to Rift they had around 600,000-700,000 players during early access. I was one of them and that launch went smooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heffernanx Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I guess I can wait til I get home though. Already waited 4 years you know.... i once bought SW-EAW and started it then though "hey i played 2-3hours i should get food" but really i played like 15 hours without noticing it... but waiting the 2minutes for the bus to arrive or like this.. to get ur SWTOR start mail feels like YEARS!!!!

Yoren Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Well then explain to me why people who have Preordered today have got in to the game instantly please? Do not believe everyhing you read on the Internet Some of the people who preordered (much) later have nothing better to do than to troll forums for the TROLOLOLs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seun Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Rockjaw Stephen Reid For anyone calling CS: yes, we have a lot of calls right now. If you're calling about 'when do you get access' - hang up. They won't help. 1 minute ago You have to be really silly to start calling CS for EGA. My, my, my.....

Mikroswitch Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I have 2 accounts. First with pre-order entered on 7/21 - In-game Second with pre-order on 7/27 - No Joy almost the same .. I'm in on the 21st account but the 23rd I am not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taranthule Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 This is kinda true. It might have motivated people to order earlier or at least give notice that this was going to happen. Complaints are warranted about this: they've had years of development on this and there is just no reason why they can't handle an infrastructure like this now. We are "only" talking about maybe a million. That other game has 10x as much. That 'other' game had one of the crappiest launches ever, not taking into consideration Age of Conan. They didnt have near as much players at the start as this mmo has, and yet they had massive problems, so your comparison is a very bad one indeed.

DarthDevian Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 please just top complaining, i feel like an adult watching a bunch of kids cry over a new toy, honestly, some people will not get in till next week, so those of us who get in earlier should just be happy they are getting in today or tomorrow and not just the day before the game comes out or even not havine early access.

KeithDraganiuk Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I'm looking forward to early access! I have a feeling I won't get in today but whatever, it's ok. I'll just go back and play Skyrim or WoW for a little while longer until i get my invite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhyltran Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I was one of them and that launch went smooth. You miss the point where Bioware has far more. If 59,000 physical pre-orders = 600,000 people. What do you think 939,000 physical pre-orders equal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khafar Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 thousands of people running around starter areas would never happen.There's still a limit on total server capacity per world, and there's no guarantee that they can direct all of a world's servers to just "starter planets". By letting people in via "waves", they can monitor loading, have time to bring new worlds online as needed, etc. The bottom line is that if they didn't throttle the inflow of customers, they could wind up with a major mess on their hands. If anyone thinks people are QQing now, just imagine what would happen if they had to shut down the game for "emergency maintenance" on the first day. They'll deserve a lot of praise if they can pull off a smooth launch, and if people are having fun... a month from now they simply won't care if they got in on December 13th or on December 15th.
