I am having a strong feeling that no additional copies will be avalible today. I heard the server is hardly handing the preorders now. Lagged players and mobs in a pretty serious condition.
I am no hatter just a fustrated want to be player.
There are STILL alot of people that preordered successfull and are still unable to play unfortunately. Hopefully they deal with those before opening up more.
i agree. I really think the population you see now will pretty much be it. Servers are stressing just by the preorder people. General public launch would kill them
i could have told you that (and so did the devs if you read the message they posted on forum) anyways the lag isnt as bad as your saying but this was expected now since they are starting to recieve an income they can upgrade the servers to actually get the game on its feet (thats also why they gave people 3 extra days cause they knew the first few days would be laggy on servers)
oh and also it will be months before they get enough servers to handle the amount of people thinking about getting this game (i think they are going to try to make the server completly stable for the people playing now hen raise the pop then in a few weeks add a server then another a few weeks after that)

the problem is that they don't own the servers. Server's are being run by GNi...so you cant just upgrade another companies servers, you have to purchase/rent new ones.
Oh well. I want to play but if you consider this beta 4 then I can wait a week or two until they get some more servers up.
By the time they manage to get more servers up, the one they have will be empty.
Very few people can log in, and the ones that are in the game can't move, they see no mobs, and the other players they can see, can't move.
There are reports that some players can 'hear' goblins attacking something, but it seems like it is just goblins killing players that can't move. The good news is that players can't move, so it's not like anyone can loot you if you die to the invisiable goblins.
Originally posted by Deathstrike2 This makes me question exactly how many people they did allow into beta. Obviously it wasn't the "thousands and thousands" reported by some fans.
Just because thousands were in the beta doesn't mean even 50% of them were all on at the same time. A few people have said on this forum that they play a little, didn't like it, and stopped testing. They still counted as is beta even though they weren't on the server playing.
Sent me an email if you want me to mail you some pizza rolls.

Yeah, basically the most 'massive' fights in beta were less than 100 people, and those fights were organized on the forums. My guess is they had about 2k total beta testers, with about 500-1000k being online at the same time.
They never stress tested the servers, now launched them and are attempting to allow 5000 people to use them at the same time. I've yet to hear of anyone 'reliable' say they were able to play the game since 'launch'. Some have been able to get into the game, but they are frozen in place.
i got left out of pre ordering because my fucknig account was bugged. it wouldnt save the CC info. so i tried like 70 times to save it, then it sold out i made a new account and it saved the first try. im so butt hurt about this
Atleast you're not in the same boat as myself and many others, where we got successful pre-orders, but still can't play due to Account is Inactive.

that actually wouldn't be any better for me, either way im not playing right now.
and actually my roommate has an account that works; i tried to login this morning @ ;6 am, didnt work because the servers were up, but only w/ admin access.

Im really pissed off now, Pre ordered and payed and still cant play because i want to be human. An absolute joke.

I've never wanted to give someone money this bad for this long and still have them refuse to take it

Heh.. I don't even get that choice .. I succesfully preordered on the 21st and have now been charged but my account still says it's not activated.

"Odds of more copies being sold seems bad. "
How can can the 'copies being sold seems'bad'? that doesn't make anysense to me.
