Not to whine, but I created my character, played till level 3, computer froze, restarted PC, got in the game, now the character selection screen says my server is full..
I am gonna die laughing!
edit: I think "early access" = paid beta
sorry, but now most of saturday is gone, I work Monday ... seems a little silly this thing didnt go live on a friday afternoon...
edit: after waiting 3 minutes for the server to be ready I was told the client is the wrong one (common error from beta) so I have to restart the client... Now I have to wait another 3 minutes..

Yes, early access is beta till launch.
They should atleast create some sort of system so that if you crash and burn you will have a 10 minute period where your account will log directly in again and skip a que.
Would suck to be in a riad and crash and then have to wait 1 hour to get in again because of a stinking que.

Those 3 days which you players paid for early access should definately make AoC a smooth launch for us patient folk...Well, 23rd for me, being in EU and all.
The 5 $ for early access also include 10 days play time.
Deathwhisper is the only full server afaik.
Underestimated? They controlled how many people they are allowing in. FWIW 1/2 the servers now have login ques coming up.
Once again I thank all of you guys and gals who will are paying for the beta. I will see you in about 3 to 6 months
I miss DAoC
That means that there are just too many people online, not necessarily that you cannot create any more characters on that server... You probably will have to wait a little bit to log into that server.
Reports are saying that you cannot even create a character at all now on servers Deathwhisper or Tyranny. That is a much larger issue now for guilds... Dethwhisper also has over 1 hour wait. FYI.
Yes, early access is beta till launch.
After this morning I thank you sir you made my day
Have faith(or whatever)!
All launches for big hyped games are like this. A favorite thing to do seem to be to compare games to WoW, well at the beginning of WoW you had to wait 3+ HOURS to get into some of the servers. And when the opening day for "that game" occured I waited for 5 hours after the servers was supposed to went live before I decided to go to bed...
Instead of cursing this may be a good sign. A sign that(at least for a while) there will be a huge base of players. Even though that may make it a struggle in the beginning, it will be a huge blessing in the long run!
