    There is no excuse for this. That short beta period without stress testing cam back to bite you in the butt.

    When will a company get a launch right? My PS4 has crashed twice with this. Never happened before, just boom, and turns off.

    Unacceptable. Had plenty of time to get this right and still issues after a 1 year delay.

    Yup, this is concequence of no actual (i.e. not internal only) Stress Test. I even got that error during Beta, which had probably 1/1000's the logins being attempted now.

    Very poor planning here, and many people saw this coming miles away.

    Expecting no problems on an MMO launch day is like expecting someone to admit fault when you rear-end them. You're gonna end up disappointed :wink:

    And just think, not even half the population is in the game yet. Central time will be up in 50 minutes and then east coast an hour after that. This isn't even at an actual stress test level yet.

    This is not a fresh launch of a new game. They have had a yes to get this right. I know I have beta tested for them while playing a subscription. Fan Boy.

    Well I'm off to bed. Going to see what it's like tomorrow. Giving up on playing tonight.

    I had a choice due to work of putting time in on ESO or Witcher 3. Kind of regretting my decision. Hopefully tomorrow remedies my doubts.

    Actually many of us did. Apparently the EU launch worked out fine, but the NA launch crippled the login servers.

    ZOS stated several times that only at 12:01est that it would unlock for that time zone only because they wanted to do a staggered release so the login servers would not get blasted, but at 12:01est it unlocked for EVERYONE in NA and now they are getting slammed and no one can log into the game.

    Well I'm cst and it's allowed me to fail login too... should only be est allowed but it seems to be allowing all time zones to login now.

    What part of what I said has anything to do with being a fan boy? What you said makes no sense. "They have had a yes to get this right". LOL what?

    This is my 6th let down from this games many launches. I'm talking four BETAs and two releases. The BETAs I get... but still...can't I just get ONE successful login? Tee hee.

    Oh well, name of the game is patience.

    The issue I have is that this type of problem is regarded as ok, and, it happens.

    This should not be ok. I'm sure it'll be fixed but it is still unacceptable.

    First MMO launch I take it. And this IS a fresh launch. You think they just copy/paste everything from PC to console?

    MMO launches never go well. I'm not defending ZOS. If you've ever read any of my comments you'd know I'm the last to do that. I'm just not ignorant.

    Well it's not good, but you're right this is normal for mmos. The bad part though is they built the launch around this whole midnight local idea and completely messed it up because it let all US login at 12est.

    Ya that 12est part really cracks me up. And doesn't surprise me one bit. If you let history be your guide, you'll get lost less often (TM)

    They had to know this was exactly what was going to happen right? Instead of making it launch at midnight for each time zone, they unlocked all of North America @ 12 EST. There is no way anyone thought this wasn't going to happen.
