Not as clear as you would think.

You have more faith in them than I do. A name reservation page screwing up and a lunch screwing up are in different ball parks.

From what i recall, a regular user will hit a server a couple times a minute, but a DDOS will hit it much, much more than that. It will also depend on the type of data being sent. Is a lot of the data being received blank, or user log-in data? If it's blank or garbage data then you'll know it's not an honest attempt to log in.

So what's the consensus after the beta and now nearing launch for Wildstar? just another mmo with a good launch and inevitable F2P in the next year? or is it something good this time.

That decision has way more to do with just how good the game is. There is a lot of luck involved.

 

[Nokterian]

And it does appear to be a DDoS attack.

Well yeah, there's thousands trying to log in.......

Same info, still skeptical.

 

[Shahadan]

Eh? Is the beta launching next week?

Blizzard almost always align their content releases with other MMO's releases/big patches
I'm joking but I wouldn't be surprised if Beta was next week.

Map of internet traffic, supports DDOS.

Edit: beat

 

[Schweinehund]

17 minutes more and then back to sleep .

 

[Westlo]

Reddit is on Widow Exile.

Marsh (Ausgaffer) + friend are on Widow and Dom.

I'm .. no idea! Was thinking the PVE Oceanic but who knows.

Widow is the unofficial Oceanic PVP server, looking like being Blackrock 2.0 7.0

New Alpha Build and a buff to Valor tokens this weekend only!!!!!!!

No, no reason, we just love you guys!

 

[Crackbone]

[OdinDemonZero]

Looks like a few streamers were able to log in

It's like when they say "it'll be released when it's ready!". I'm always laughing and checking the calendar for other MMOs upcoming activity.

 

[Blue Geezer]

so while i wait for servers to sort themselves out the consensus seems to be for EU Hazak and exile? Makes sense as there are a LOAD of dominion guilds!

 

[Dunlop]

got in, made toon, crashed loading tutorial

 

[piratepwnsninja]

Yeah, don't skip the cutscene after character creation.

 

[TharpDaddy]

Anyone with an authenticator able to get in?

 

[piratepwnsninja]

Yeah, two of my guildmates are in with authenticators.

 

[Suite Pee]

The streamer I'm watching is in. I guess I'll go Orias and Pergo (avoiding reddit).

 

[Mastamind]

Anyone with an authenticator able to get in?

Nope still failing after the two-step

 

[Sorian]

Nope still failing after the two-step

Same boat here.

 

[C.Dark.DN]

This shit is killing me:
"Too many failed login attempts, login temporarily disabled. Please try again in a few minutes."

Going on an hour.

I don't want to contact support about my IP.

 

[M.Steiner]

No luck on my end just yet (2-step) but good to see people are managing to get in now.

 

[Sephirus]

Yea, I'm still trying to get past the two-step verification.

 

[Mastamind]

Oooooh. A new error:
Unhandled NC Platform Error 15

 

[Sorian]

Oooooh. A new error:
Unhandled NC Platform Error 15

Nah, you're about a half hour behind on that one

 

[Tankshell]

Just tried logging in for the first time (UK). Authentication timeout. Will try again in a few hours.

 

[M.Steiner]

Made it to character creation. [Edit: If it finishes retrieving the server list lol]

 

[TharpDaddy]

Bunch of us on mumble just got in at the same time.

 

[Faith in Fate]

EU authenticator used, just got in.

 

[C.Dark.DN]

My IP is banned for 24 hours, lol.

PSA: Don't try and login too many times on the website to register your key during the heavy load.

Trying to reset my router for a new one.

 

[piratepwnsninja]

In

 

[Suite Pee]

I'm in! Are names global or on a server-by-server basis?

 

[Uthred]

Yay I got in...oh

 

[M.Steiner]

Global I believe.

 

[Nokterian]

Oh god now queue's around 8000 in the realm i was in my god capacity is all ready hit xD

 

[GhostRidah]

Got in but there is a huge server queue, better than typing in my pass/authinticator every 5 seconds.

 

[Rojan]

Woo! I finally got in!

Dominion on Widow

 

[Sorian]

In now.

 

[Mastamind]

What realms are you guys in queue for?

 

[TharpDaddy]

No queue on Orias. Getting a 37ms ping as well. Servers seem to be fine once you get in.

 

[Uthred]

What realms are you guys in queue for?

Be wary of changing realm, tried to change realm and got booted back to login

 

[pelican]

LOL, the queue for Hazak pvp is 151 hours

 

[helloresolven]

Well, I'm officially Fell on Widow, Dominion (Human Spellslinger).

Time to quest!

 

[Suite Pee]

Be wary of changing realm, tried to change realm and got booted back to login

Looks like that's about to happen on me. I made my character "Drew" on Pergo, now I need to make a character on Orias with a short name.

Short name = prestige!

 

[Rizzi]

I'm just sitting here downloading the client.
Guess I'll get in at the same time as everyone else, haha.

 

[M.Steiner]

LOL, the queue for Hazak pvp is 151 hours

It's coming down for me. Showing 33hrs now! (At least we're past the login now)

 

[Raknar]

In a giant queue for Hazak. One guy in my guild is in and he's saying the starting area is empty.
