McCordRm Posted February 23, 2011 Author Share Posted February 23, 2011 Downloading, baby! For those interested in an RP server, Guardian side, Call of Fate is looking for recruits.

Beyond Godlike Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 I give this one 5 months before they start laying off staff. Nothing about this game is unique or special in any way, its just another MMO to get crushed by WoW and the like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing about this game is unique or special in any way, its just another MMO to get crushed by WoW and the like. Read the other pages. It's not trying to renovate the genre, it's trying to make a polished and complete competator to WoW. It wants to be the Battlefield to Blizzard's Call of Duty (WoW) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeFu84 Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 So today is the day. What servers are you folks planning to play on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brentaal Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 While playing the beta I noticed that I could pick between EU and US servers (or perhaps that was during the installation, doesn't matter). Does that mean one will be able to play on either (EU/US) without having to buy a specific localized account? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun N. Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 I will be buying it tomorrow through Steam and its a shame I can't pre download it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that mean one will be able to play on either (EU/US) without having to buy a specific localized account? yes, like most MMO's that are't WoW. the game lets you pick US or EU in the launcher.

Tharp Daddy Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 So today is the day. What servers are you folks planning to play on? Shatterbone, after a lnegthy debate with guild we realized we collectively too much of a pansy to roll PvP. I will be buying it tomorrow through Steam and its a shame I can't pre download it What is holding you back from pre-downloading? You just launch the launcher and log in and it patches. Steam itself does not install the full game or update it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G_0 Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 I got the game and looking forward to playing a bit tonight. Lol reading the official forums about queue times. I guess they've never done an opening day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tharp Daddy Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Yeah, trying to deal with thousands upon thousands of people flooding the game at once is not an easy thing to do. I find it funny people are actually throwing lawsuit threats at Trion over them not being able to get into the servers - have they never done a launch day? It's never an easy day for a company.

Took blizzard 3 expansions to get a proper launch day...Cata was perfect, but the ones before were a horror show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+longgonebn Subscriber² Posted February 25, 2011 Subscriber² Share Posted February 25, 2011 I just don't understand why a company can't prepare for a launch day. Take what you think you will need, and think the amount of people there will be and double or triple that. And you should be fine. I know it's more complicated then that, but geez.

Tharp Daddy Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 I just don't understand why a company can't prepare for a launch day. Take what you think you will need, and think the amount of people there will be and double or triple that. And you should be fine. I know it's more complicated then that, but geez. They only have one figure, and that is number of pre-orders. That has no impact on how many will show up, how many will buy right as beta starts (which is a surprising amount), how many will flock to what servers, etc. If they open too many they will get a Warhammer effect in that the population will end up being spread too thin, and servers will be killed off, etc. Not to mention, it's the fact that too many people are trying to get into one server, so even if they open more it does not help those that are set on one server. It's a very tricky thing to deal with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+longgonebn Subscriber² Posted February 26, 2011 Subscriber² Share Posted February 26, 2011 Got in and created my character around 5PM and played for an hour, got to level 8 and out of the starting zone. Then my system crashed and I have been in queue ever since lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slane Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Got on Perspice (PvE) shard within an hour or so of it being brought up. Formed a guild with some others. Having a blast. Found some rare (i think) elite with like 3k HP when we were all level 8. Destroyed it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
