No, not every MMO markets their game preorders as much as ESO. The main selling point of the preorder was the early access. The game should not be down for maintenance every day of the early access time. It's not okay, and there's no excuse you can contrive that will sate my dissatisfaction. This isn't some F2P korean grindcore they're launching. This is the ELDER SCROLLS. They should have been better prepared, period.
Dude, EVERY MMO, don't care what you say. I have played all the AAA titles and more. This same rant happened with SWTOR. "But it's STAR WARS, they should have been better prepared."
Btw, SWTOR gave us extra month gametime for our "inconvienece". Maybe ZOS will do the same, could care either way.
It's impossible to launch perfect. Never gonna happen. So don't understand the whining threads like this one. You could be doing literally ANYTHING else right now, and it would be more constructive. Same goes for me so I'll just end it there....../thread
Okay:
1. It's irrelevant how other MMOs launched. That does not excuse poor preparation. There are still bugs in the game that were reported in the beta months ago.
2. SWTOR is garbage and has always been garbage. Only good thing about it was the story.
3. It's not about launching perfect, it's about getting what we paid for and what we were told we were going to get. I.E. Early access to the game, not late access to the beta.
4. I find stating my dissatisfaction with the product I am receiving to the developers to be much more productive than defending the developers plain blunders.
1. No it's not. Happens every mmo and will continue. There's no way to change that FACT there, so stop trying.
2. Agree with you there. But it was just the most recent example.
3. You got what you paid for. Your playing the game early. (5 days or 3 days, whatever you paid for.) The game has only been down for maybe a total of 8-10 hours in the 60 hours it has been since early release.
4. Your posting your dissatisfaction on the forums for all these people who can't do a thing for you seems either unproductive or a cry for attention. If you are dissatisfied so much, write an email, make some calls, hire a lawyer, or just plain quit the game and don't come back. Posting here is doing changing nothing concerning your dissatisfaction. This isn't the developers "plain" blunders. I'm pretty sure you don't develop games...give it a shot.
** On a side note, we pay $15 a month on top of innitial purchase. Are you saying you don't want our money going to fixes/extra content? I hate to pay $15 a month for them to just sit back and you get what you get. Nice to see my money going to good use.

Hello,
Our team is still working on the North American megaserver as we speak. We are working hard to resolve the issue and bring everything back up as soon as possible.
We will keep you informed as we receive updates. Thank you for your patience.
Let me just repost this so the Zenimax robots don't have to.8 -
