I like to think that's not true because this is the mentality that makes MMOs boring after 1 month. Luckly, I am leveling a lot of stuff at once and postponing the horrible curse of MMO end-game.
Performance is kinda frustrating though.
Ah well, at least it's getting a PS4 upgrade. I imagine that'd make it look as good as a decent PC at the least.

Here's a link for the launcher. I don't think they'll let you download the rest of the game without a key attached to your account though. I may be wrong (I hope.)

Two things I really appreciate in this game: looting is automated and there's no junk loot. They understand that a: loot is something you just spam-collect by default anyway and b: junk loot only good for selling for pennies is just needless busywork.
They strike a great balance between tradition and innovation in many aspects, IMO.

Is the PS4 version an official thing? Any word on release of that?

Some people have veteran rewards that carry over from the 1.0 version.
It's official, but as far as the date "next year" is all we have.
Yes. Next year.
Thanks! I'll get the key from a box copy.
As someone who has clocked 35 days played at 90 on his Druid.. I respectfully agree to disagree.

My problem with the PS3 version is how they cut so many frames of animation from mobs/other players. When they move about it almost looks like stop-motion at times, really quite jarring to me.

Yep. Actually, Yoshi just mentioned how it is in development in this new IGN video and how all the games are cross compatible. Video is up on the front page of IGN.

I am the same. I enjoy running dungeons multiple times, but once I have experienced the content I am not the type of player that will keep doing end game raids just to get better gear. Gets boring to me.

I think you're talking about any server, at any time.
I did manage to create an Ultros character this morning and get in a few hours. By this afternoon when I logged off, the world was crazy packed. Mostly people just standing around teleporters. Everyone afraid to log off 'cause they know they won't be able to get back on if they do.
I'd say the odds of getting on the rest of the weekend are pretty slim. Hopefully they'll actually start getting shit worked out next week.

I don't even know I bother. Just got in and 10 min later 90000 error...

Wow, no world is full error or queues on Odin.

So I've heard they're adding barbers later on to change hair styles/color, is that true? I somehow missed/forgot to check hair highlights in the hair color menu. Not a big deal but...
No queues as tank yet (32).
Healer has got to be better than DPS, though. 2 hour wait? Ouch.
Yeah, someone here said that will be implemented in an update. I want more hairstyles.

Pretty much. Both SWTOR and GW2 had better launches than this and those were pretty terrible. At least there I was put in a queue even if it was like a 45 minute wait I didn't have to put up with this world is full shit or 9000 disconnected.

I got in in a few tries the last few nights. Mostly luck though. =(
Excalibur is full though, really full.
Not even close to being near and moving my PC back and forth is too much of a hassle.

Hey can one of you logoff Ultros? Need my fix
I've been playing on a Japanese server, so yes.

I blame SE. They don't think AFK kicking is a priority for some reason though it's standard in every other MMO out there.
I completely disagree with it being the worst. At least a ton of people are playing, unlike WOWs launch.
I really have ran into problems logging on but i also have time to play mornings in EST when not a lot of people are on. No bugs/glitches, no crashes or disconnects. I have clocked in probably 40 hours since the early access started. I clocked maybe 5 hours in the first 2 weeks of WOW's launch, maybe less in the first week of SWTOR. But again, it's dependent on what time zone/time you are able to play.
all things considered, it's still a better launch than most. Yeah, in peak hours it's hard to get in but at least 100k+ players are able to play the game unlike mmos that just don't work for ANYONE the first week.
They really need to implement one but not a shitty 15 minute AFK boot because some people have kids and have to run off for 15-20 minutes. Should be a 30ish minute AFK boot.
But i don't take advantage of it like some of my friends who just stay logged in when they leave the house. If i am leaving the house i log out and shut down my PC.
I've played most MMO's release week since WoW (was launch week on WoW too, my server never had queues, worst of everything was loot lag) and I haven't had problems that compare to this. Once you get in, it's fine, but at this point I can't even get in because I'm in Mountain, east costers are 2-3 hours into playing by the time I get home. So SE has money, but I don't have a game. It's a problem.

Question about world transfers, are they going to allow legacy players to transfer eventually?

PS3. Suppose I could do that on my PC but that's not really where I want to play.

I can't say anything about the log in part, but the game is definitely worth a drive to the store to pick up.
To other Legacy worlds in a few weeks.
To new worlds, in 6 months or so was the plan.
They already said more free time for everyone, so yeah.

Doubtful
That doesn't really get me in the game. I'm loaning them money, considering they give me free time for time I can't use.
I understand worst launch is going to be subjective to people, but in 9 years of MMO playing, I've never been not able to play without entire server clusters being down.
Finally had a proper day of gaming. It's a pretty charming game.
I didn't have any login problems today, my brother kept disconnething though. He couldn't directly reconnect, because the game kept thinking he was in game(his character was still in the game world after dc). So after every dc he needed to wait 5+ min before he could reconnect.
