Had to wait over an hour in que, had the chance to see the Characters I can create -> patch.
Said 35 minutes -> 1 hour later still no useful information on ETA.
I mean do you guys want to have a second chance or want to sink the ship?

this is not LAUNCH DAY!!
 
it was RELAUNCH DAY. they had their shot at screwing up, this time was supposed to be the big "we are ready!!!"
 
they were not

Another "This guy is in rage of not playing after a patch and other people have to explain why this is happening in every MMO on patchday, so we explain and talk about software development and stuff like that until the topic is closed full of comlains, tears and a bit positive fluff to try good" Thread ...

I've you cant wait try another mmo and you will notice that every mmo has many many bugs .
These ppl working ffs DAY and NIGHT to solve stuff and you have the nerve to complain , i really hope that ppl like you will leave this amazing game developed by those amazing Carbine devs.
The game is ffs for free if you want that and still complain, really just  leave

Hello there! I know that you are frustrated due to the issues f2p launch has at this moment but you should expect such things in every mmo.
As many community member stated above, there are tons of discussion threads about the f2p launch so I will redirect you to this one.	
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
@Olivar Fanboys to the rescue! Their first launch was terrible. They lost the player base. They got forced to go f2p or starve to death. And now their f2p launch (on a week day) is a flop. Join PETA or something, go advocate for some noble cause, stop devoting so much time defending this game. I stopped playing it a while ago, but I was constantly checking forums to see what's going on with the game. And every single time someone was complaining you were there, defending WS. People tend to expect to get theirs moneys worth, let them *cupcake*ing complain, it's their right as a customer, paying or not.
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
I played some MMOs on launch and yesthey all pretty much failed. BUT this is Wildstar's SECOND launch and I thought they learned from theirselves or from other MMOs? No they didn't
 
Even subs complained about queuing times while other subs were able to login instantly.
----
			
not being able to create a charcter for two hours is. get over it, you have lost this argument. the "realms" are down for extended maintanence the morning after they screwed up their relaunch.
that is called a fail in any playbook. can they fix things later? maybe, but what good will that do for the people that, like me, have already uninstalled the game and will not be back after this morning?

The Elder Scrolls Online =) No lag, no queue (even in a start area and RvR). Best launch in MMO's new history lol
 
And by the way, we tested WildStar Reloaded on PTR, and gave a lot of feedback....so i think they should do a better launch. And seems like someone just cant understand that FREE TO PLAY = A LOT OF PPL => Servers are going to explode => Lags, freezes and stuff. If there were more servers (not realms) we hadnt faced so much crap.

This is actually not true. Wildstar was doing fine with the low player base. The community was growing day by day since drop 3/4. Ncsoft just wanted/wants more, hence the f2p launch. 
----
			
Mmmmmm so much salt  :D
 
People forget the same issues happened when FF14 relaunched. Que times will always happen, would you prefer they screw up like SWTOR which launched with WAY to many servers causing massive population imbalances crossing several servers?	
----
			
Been to many game launches and played on day one this is normal and expected never known one to go 100% smooth. Sorry but if you need to rage about it and call for compentation etc then i would suggest to you either anger managment treatment or even stop playing mmo`s on launch days. Sorry if this seems like a troll it not meant to be i stayed up all night to watch the launch party on twitch and when i mean all night im uk based and was here for the opening  of the server. My main char got stuck on a tranmat to thayd and am i raging about that NOPE it is expected end of. As was said either launch days survival rules are as follows  Rule 1. Be paitient!!!    Rule, 2. Repeat rule 1 !!!!!! enjoy.
 
This is just day one things can only get better as the song says.

{| class="blockquote"
Maybe so, I would hardly consider anyone a "fanboy" at this point.  You must also not have done too much forum diving (being selective with topics I bet) because I've seen a good amount of criticism from your so called "fanboys".  While some criticisms are valid, that doesn't stop people from posting useless feedback that is neither constructive nor warranted. 
 
My advice is to do some more research.  I don't feel I really need to explain this any further.
 
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
Because all the other games that had problems on launch didn't have any alpha/betas, ptr testing or whatever it is called for the said game. They all had them and they still "failed" at launch. I am yet to see a program which didn't have any problems/bugs on launch. Go study some programing first and you will see that there is nothing close to a perfect code. There will always be a random bug appearing here or there and the only way to fix it is for it to get noticed by the people.

			Yeah this is another rocky launch. Hopefully this doesn't bode ill for the games second and probably last chance. Here's hoping carbine can get on top of this.

			 In all fairness i can understand your frustration.. you've been waiting all day listening to the hype train and once on board the caboose manages to fall off the tracks.. so the train is halted and you gotta wait to get the show going again. I fully realize how disappointing this is.. But also in carbines defence the mega server was never truly pushed like has been tonight.. the servers arrived when the pop was severely declined so the work loads were never fully pushed except for maybe once.. They called out for players to come stress test the server to help prevent this... unfortunately not enough came to test it so carbine kinda had to roll the dice here.. hopefully they can remedy it sometime today. These servers are supposed to work well under heavy loads but it looks like some tweaking is needed for that to happen. Not to mention there's probably a few bugs that were never caught in the ptr that have shown their ugly head here.

{| class="blockquote"
This same thing has happened during WoW's launch and every expansion launch after that. Surely you're not saying WoW is also a failure? It's not a matter of learning how to launch a game. Queue times don't mean failure.
----
			Everything in this game since launch has required us to WAIT. WAIT for a spot when game first released. WAIT for Q times for adventures or dungeons. WAIT for the next drop. WAIT for guilds to raid. I don't know about everyone else but i'm used to WAITING at least half an hour before anything really fun happens in this game.

			why do people keep calling this a launch? the game is about 16 months old now. this is a defibrilation. and at this point in time, people should anticipate heavy logins when they go ftp. still cannot get into the damned game. today is a a day wasted.	
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
WoW is not comparable.
That game had to handle 7 Million(!) new players on launch of it's latest addon.
And still there weren't that much queues, just lags.
 
Wildstar servers, being used to a total of 50k subs worldwide, is another story entirely.
NCSoft surely pulled most of the server capacities to save money. And to me it looks like they didn't add anything before launch.
And that calculation will keep NCSoft from doing anything about it. They'll just wait and milk the players that are stupid enough to throw money at them this early on.
----
			the queue on the PvP server is only 300 so... yea if you want a shorter queue there it is!

I'd like to correct you about that. We never said that wildstar's (or any other mmo's) launch days were excellent. There is no such thing as bug-free mmo and during launch dates/big events we expect the game to have more bugs than usual.. and of course emergency maintenance and long queues.. For our standards wildstar had a decent F2p launch and most of the bugs got fixed a few hours ago. It's more than fine imo

{| class="blockquote"
How was it doing fine mate? Laying off half of the company was fine? Perhaps for the players, not for devs. TBH I really liked this game, but it became unplayable after several months. There were simply not enough people around. Closing of the PvP servers was the queue for me to move on. And I support it going f2p, and wish them the best. And I do understend that launch day is a *cupcake*. But hey, they went through it already before, so they should have been prepared for Christ's sake. 
----
			Uhm there is no mmo that opens up a lot of servers "just in case". It's been one day. If this problem persist there will probably be a new server or they will open up more space on the current servers in some way. We all know most people will leave within a week and we have experience with dead servers. Do you guys really want to end up on one of those dead servers rather than stick this out a few days?

----
			
{| class="blockquote"
Have you ever had to wait to be seated at a busy restaurant? This is basically a launch day of an MMO. Did you expect to just waltz right in and not encounter any que? The only thing I see as a BIG FAILURE is someone's inability to accept launch day obstacles for every MMO on the market. Now, grab your knitting supplies, take a deep breath, and knit yourself a blanky....
----
			Why are people always so miserable when things don't go their way, this is usually what happens at launch things don't go right hotfixes need to be applied just chill the *Kitten Out there is so much to do.  if your having long queue times log in and go do something else while you wait it really isn't the end of the world.  I personally will be hiding on my skyplot for the next couple of days until the crazies calm down lol

Lol, something i should have known.. logged earlier today then i had to go out.. i totall forget its wildstar.. and another launch.. now it gives me 4k que with 120h wait time.. CBA, cya another week when 90% of players that joined today left already! 
 
BTW, great job carbine for failing twice on launch on same game! I mean, like many other says, its launch day, players learned to get errors, bugs, wait times etc, but why only players have to learn while dev always, simply same..

Don't tell the fanboys that please.  It's something they can't comprehend.
Game launches like crap : Fanboys scream: Sh1t happens! We love waiting! We are fine!
Devs leave: Fanboys scream: Screw that dev, good luck traitor, We are fine!
Servers are empty: Fanboys scream: We got enough people, trust us.  We are fine, right guys <crickets>
People ask for server consolidation: Fanboys scream: Screw you, we have enough people, no need to consolidate servers!
Megaservers form: Fanboys scream: This is what we have been asking for since day 1!
F2P Rumors start: Fanboys scream: NEVER! We are fine! We don't need F2P, we are fine the way we are!
F2P becomes reality: Fanboys scream! F2P! We have been asking for this since day 1!
 
Look man, what I'm trying to say is that you can't make people understand no matter how much logic your use.
And it's FINE!
And oh, by the way, sh188y launches, they are fine too!  Lower your expectations and be the lowest common denominator.  Everything will be fine then!

I think 50k people all running for four or five doors at the same time in a stadium would look much worse than this but have a similar effect.
 
I am afraid for the future if this is the response to a video game re-launch.  At least we know you are eager, otherwise why come to post on here.  You must all care quite a bit, which is saying something.

I'm pretty sure NCSoft (Carbine itself is bankrupt anyway..) has more ressources than Blizzard. It's the biggest mmo publisher in the world.

Why do you even call your servers MEGASERVERs? Should be called like... HUNDREDSERVERS becuase that is about as much capacity as they can ever have...

You aren't the first to say this about MMO launch and you won't be the last.
 
The only company that did good on a launch of something new was FF14 ARR Heavenward. Nearly had no issues with that.
 
Things like this are not new for MMO's so either get use to it now or find another genre.	
----
			Saying this relaunch isn't a real launch is like saying FFXIV ARR launch (which was also a relaunch) was not a true launch. Both are real relaunches, and so far W* is doing much better than ARR did it's first day after relaunch... give it time. 	
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
I also preordered the limited edition, I had sub since forever and what do I get? The same as you (long time queues)
 
But I know what to expect from an mmo launch and I wait patiently in the queue.

Most older MMO's. WoW or FF for example. Both of which have the funds to change both of those. GW2, TERA and Rift all went F2P and didn't have queues. Hell GW2 had a huge dump of players same day it launched and it was in top performance at peak hours. c.c Care to explain?

Shhhh!
 
 
The difference between you and him can be summed up in the following fashion.  
He expects more than you do.  Just because your expectations originated and stayed in the gutter doesn't mean that someone else cannot think differently.  
He thinks "Hey, games have evolved.  Many of them have been through too many sh1tty launches, including this one!   A combination of good project managers armed with good data can analyze the trends and forecast capacity issues in the upcoming release.  I sure hope the company has learned something, in-fact after every sh1t moment, in the tech world, we usually have a post-morterm so those kind of problems don't occur again!"
You don't have the capacity to think in that fashion.
 
And it's fine. 
----
			
{| class="blockquote"
Seeing as there are no official numbers from Carbine yet that's a pretty silly thing to ask. For all you know there could be. 
 
Also ARR had massive server issues all through BETA and pre launch with numbers as low as 150k causing server problems. The first week of launch was a complete no go so much that SE had to run a 10 hour emergency maintainenece and comped everyone for a free week because nothing was holding up. 
 
I'm probably the biggest FF fan you'll ever meet, and I probably love my Lalafell WHM more than most peoples mothers love them. But ARR was a massive chaotic cluster when it "relaunched". SE would have killed to have the magnitude of issues W* is having right now.

Hello there! I know that you are frustrated due to the issues f2p launch has at this moment but you should expect such things in every mmo.
As many community member stated above, there are tons of discussion threads about the f2p launch so I will redirect you to this one.

Shhhh!
 
 
 
The difference between you and him can be summed up in the following fashion.  
 
He expects more than you do.  Just because your expectations originated and stayed in the gutter doesn't mean that someone else cannot think differently.  
He thinks "Hey, games have evolved.  Many of them have been through too many sh1tty launches, including this one!   A combination of good project managers armed with good data can analyze the trends and forecast capacity issues in the upcoming release.  I sure hope the company has learned something, in-fact after every sh1t moment, in the tech world, we usually have a post-morterm so those kind of problems don't occur again!"
You don't have the capacity to think in that fashion.
 And it's fine.
----
			I don't know what the capacity of the servers, but I am almost 100% sure that they are letting people in in waves. You can't be in queue that says 4 hours and to log in in 5 mins unless they are letting people in waves or like a thousand people that are at the front of the queue decide to relog/exit. My bet is on the 1st option.	
----

Don't tell the fanboys that please.  It's something they can't comprehend.
Game launches like crap : Fanboys scream: Sh1t happens! We love waiting! We are fine!
Devs leave: Fanboys scream: Screw that dev, good luck traitor, We are fine!
Servers are empty: Fanboys scream: We got enough people, trust us.  We are fine, right guys <crickets>
People ask for server consolidation: Fanboys scream: Screw you, we have enough people, no need to consolidate servers!
Megaservers form: Fanboys scream: This is what we have been asking for since day 1!
F2P Rumors start: Fanboys scream: NEVER! We are fine! We don't need F2P, we are fine the way we are!
F2P becomes reality: Fanboys scream! F2P! We have been asking for this since day 1!
 
Look man, what I'm trying to say is that you can't make people understand no matter how much logic your use.
And it's FINE!
And oh, by the way, sh188y launches, they are fine too!  Lower your expectations and be the lowest common denominator.  Everything will be fine then!

I know i have to wait but i thought EU, jabbit in particular is not gonna blow up like this, are you NA or something?
----
			
Jabbit has some maintance in 4minutes, so we will see what they are going to do, what i know is im gonna sit here and try to log in every 3minutes, so when they put the servers up ill be one of the first, not 5hour 26m 761position.
And i have to state the fact again i have subbed for atleast 6months and own the preorder limited edition. Still getting this butt*cupcake*ed by f2p launch and sig priority my ass

Well, it's known that Wildstar is a really good game ( to me at least :p ) but they are terrible at making good choice to handle their playerbase
 
As everyone said, Adding server is not the good option and they can't really improve the hardware right on the spot, like a patch. So yeah, wait the Hype to be gone, and Carbine to adapt themself, not like it will really matter in the long run  if you start playing today or 2 days later

			with 8k+ queues.... adding more server could cut in half those queues

I seem to remember loads of bugs at launch. I couldn't craft anything, questmobs didn't spawn, items didn't respawn, etc. Things we had been reporting during beta which still made it to launch, so I wouldn't call it a problem-free launch by far. 
 
Server lag and queues are to be expected. The game isn't failing because there are lots of people wanting to log in at once. If quests had been bugged, if the servers had been DCing contantly etc then we could talk a fail launch. But atm there is basically a mob of people trying to force themselves in through the same door at once. Trouble is bound to happen no matter how prepared they are.

Well it matters for me as a player that has been playing the game for too long, i have guild, i have friends i want to show the game to now when its f2p and raids. So yes, for me playing now or tomorrow makes a huge difference.

Dear lord! There's que times for this game?! On the first day of a major patch that will either save or kill the game?! This game is most certainly bad!
 
Madda's mom said Madda was special and could have anything Madda wanted, so why doesn't Madda get into the server passing everyone else! this game sucks!

Queues are disappointing. Turning players away is bad for business because some will never come back and it generates negative reviews. Unlike most MMORPG launches these players haven't generated any revenue yet and turning them away means lost revenue.	Only two server options? PVE and PVP. Seems rather limited.	The Paid Players Get Priority message at the bottom sends a really negative message. Is the game going to be full of paywalls? Is this a deliberate tactic to try and squeeze money out of players? Why would I even consider paying to get priority access when I can even see if I like the game?	When I finally got into the game, I wasn't able to Enter Game. The game just hangs with an hourglass icon. I can't do anything or than kill the game or wait indefinitely.
I'm on the fence with this game. Beta didn't impress. Re-launch isn't impressing. I want to like the game.... Not sure I'll get a chance.

Truth. This is a patch not a launch. Game has been up over a year. And it's not a relaunch because it never shut down. Just a huge patch. Patch went over no problems. It's the capacity they have issues with. 48 hour queue is ridiculous. As I have said above, multiple other games went F2P and had 0 issues. GW2 was B2P now F2P and no issues. TERA was P2P and went F2P no issues. Rift relaunched as F2P, no issues. Yet Blizzard, Square and Carbine have insane queues. c.c

LOL that is funny.  SWToR and Rift both had great launches.  Played on the first wave of early access launches and had no problems from that first hour on.  Then a week after for the offical open to all launch still no problems.  Some quest bugs etc. but nothing like queues, bad lag, etc.  Rift also had no issues and was very smooth at launch.
 
I guess the only mmo you really played then was FF14.  But I heard from plenty of people how that FF14 ARR Heavenward was not as smooth as you make it out to be.

You aren't the first to say this about MMO launch and you won't be the last.
 
The only company that did good on a launch of something new was FF14 ARR Heavenward. Nearly had no issues with that.
 
Things like this are not new for MMO's so either get use to it now or find another genre.

Look at all those business experts, developers, best gamers that ever walked the face of the Earth...
 
Just shut the CUPCAKE up... seriously.
 
Launch day - 29th
Today - 29th
 
What the CUPCAKE you want? More cupcakes?? Toss me few if you get them... cuz you will get cupcakes but flawless launch you will never get. 
 
EDIT: Rift had queues and problems, forums and website were down few times. I was there. Trion sucks at launches which they just confirmed with ArcheAge.
I was at 6 launches in past 5 years, not a single one went smooth. 
It's expected. We, currently, are behaving like a massive ddos to servers. Hence the laggs...
 
Chill out a bit and give it few days, if not a whole month. Just be happy to have a chance to play such a game for CUPCAKE free \m/

They should make money because it's a quality product people want to support. And people do buy cosmetic stuff or convenience items. Because they want to. Keyword, want. Not have to.
Paying should give extra convenience. Not basic functions.
I mean what's next, pay to get a full LAS? To be able to join a party? To not be stuck in walk mode rather than run? And paying to circumvent queues just says "yeah, we did our job half-assed, we can't be bugged to adapt to the interest we're hoping to get in order for the game to survive, but we'll make it a functionnality to look like we're just jerks instead of idiots"
----
			
I am a bit surprised they were not more prepared for a large influx of players.
 
I agree waiting almost 2 hours to get to the character creation screen is pretty crazy. Of course I am assuming that you can even create characters which was not working last night.

			Out of alot of MMOs this isn't that bad. For one be glad you have a queue. FFXIV didn't and had problems for over a week after it was rebooted with just log in errors instead of queues and no one ever logging out to prevent that. Seeing a 1-5 hour queue is fine aslong as it doesn't d/c during the process. The problem will be just like FFXIV people won't log out after getting in which will make the queues even longer. Unless theirs an auto kick function but even then theirs ways to bypass those. (I'm new so I don't know if their is or not.)

I wish people would just stop arguing and agree on something basic instead of defending Carbine or blaming Carbine for everything from why the launch wasn't perfect to why their mother has shingles.
 
Look, fact of the matter is that the both the launch and relaunch were crap and even in the periods of calm, the game didn't really do a good job given the fact that they went f2p.
You can't defend that, if you do, you don't make sense.  No amount of excuses will achieve that.  Lot of you make no sense.
 
People also need to stop blaming carbine for everything, I doubt they really control everything.  I doubt they have the staff or the power to do proper capacity planning or even perform some functions we are expecting here.  What if the money didn't come from the top.  What if NCSoft decided against providing capital for some sort of mitigation or contingency plan when it came to the user spike?
 
It's also a very imaginable scenario.
 
I think being positive is one thing, but being blind is just silly.   When life hands you lemons, you make a lemonade, when the lemons are rotten however, you better *kitten* accept that life's a b18ch at that point of time!

			I enjoy WS but as a guy who plays GW2, I am slightly put off. GW2 is 3 years old already. Patches are hot fixes, no down time, no queues and it even went F2P recently. Why are games still sitting in queues? GW2 you play til patch is complete, download patch, and back online within a minute. Downtime is virtually 0 and WS has 17 hour downtime and huge queue issues :/

Clean your house. Walk the dog. Make some food. Hell - if the wait time is a few hours after I have to log out for blood work I may just go see a movie and come back.If you don't have a life outside video games I feel sorry for you; and this is coming from somebody who made their living off games for a couple years.The servers are being rushed and do you honestly expect a game that was "struggling" for so long to have perfect servers? When a company such as Blizzard has rarely had a smooth launch for expansions?Stop comparing this to other genres; They do not use the same infrastructures that MMO's use. The amount of data processed for a game such as this is why we experience lag and end up needing wait times or the entire server would crash.  Even with ESO you have a larger company backing it that has far more financial resources for the hardware. Carbine is a /baby/ and it's doubtful NCSoft is going  to give them tons of money on what's essentially a gamble.
 
Would it have been nice to have a couple extra servers to deal with the wait times? Yes.But what would happen if the population didn't stay up? We'd deal with yet another merger.	
----
			
"All this hype for the game launch, and we can't play it?  WTF?"
 
"HAHAHA, noob, are you new here?"
 
Wasn't that sort of the point, getting new people to come check it out?  These are the people the relaunch was supposed to serve, and the experience they're getting is anticipation, followed by frustration.  Yes, some of us have been well trained to swallow waiting in line to play, and then suffering through the elbows-to-assholes crowds and the crippling slideshow framerates, the lag and the frequent shutdowns for the sake of the commiserative online equivalent of a tailgate party.  There weren't enough of us to keep the lights on.
 
Think about this situation from the point of view of someone who wasn't already into MMORPGs, or who's used to WoW expansion releases (after tBC, 'coz DAMN).  CRB fluffed this event up, hinted at a fun, exciting experience, did a countdown and a (painfully awkward) launch party, and when they pull the curtain back, there's a game you . . . wait in line to . . . not play.  Maybe if the expectation is a traffic jam, there should be less hype about getting on ASAP and experiencing the new game as it launches.  Or maybe the expectation that this is more of a block party than a showcase of the game and how she plays should be explicitly communicated, so that the new folks know that this isn't about actually playing the game.

Just a huge disappointment so far for my Wildstar experience.  I've been waiting since f2p launch trying to JUST create a character and this is getting to the point of just giving up.  If Carbine and NCsoft can't put together a decent f2p launch it makes one wonder where there priority is....
 
I'm saying, I understand issues happen but there has been no continuity since f2p was launched.
 
I give Devs time for issues to be resolved but this has been kind of ridiculous.  Come on NCsoft, Can we get this issue resolved so I can play this game.  I have always wanted to play wildstar but at the time I didn't wanna buy the game/sub, so hopefully we get going and Wildstar can get another player willing to invest time and money into this game.

			I saw a que before the server was turned on. After the server turned on.. I instantly got in. I haven't seen a que since that time last night at 11.58 est. I have yet to see a  que message on warbound today.  The fact tons are trying it should have you excited that means more people to play with. Which is what Wildstar  needed. 	
----
			I would love to know what other games you are comparing this launch to, being that you claim that this is a joke and has/had a poor execution. I have been around the block a few times when it comes to game launches and re-launches and they all have similar issues. Problems that occur during launch can be assumed but the gravity of the situation in actuality cannot be predicted. I'm sure they will invest in larger servers or more of them but for now, what's currently broken, must be fixed before moving forward. As far as this launch being a fail, it's far from it. If it was a fail, the servers would not be full. The point was to bring in more people and that is exactly what they did.

			Look guys, long time WS player here and  a huge fan. To the point where I have kept a sub up even when im not playing to support the company. I think its time to stop defending WS so much. This was a relaunch not a launch. The fact of the matter is things have been extremely shaky for me and I havent been able to get into the game between failures in creating my character and the que times. WS was in the position it was in due to this stuff, quit defending them. It is not your job to speak on their behalf, quit acting like jerks the second the noobies come. This was rough but I have faith they will be able to resolve the problems.

If this is what Megaservers are going to be about I am not interested.
 
Consolidating servers is one thing for PTP. But going to FTP with just two servers? They are asking for trouble. With or without this so called "Megaserver" technology..

inb4 the fanboys defend there game/creators/development team
 
 
LMAO.   This f2p launch is such a joke.  What a *cupcake* poor execution of trying to get new players to come and play there game.  Given I didn't play Wildstar at the original launch but this is something terrible. 
 
Just a huge disappointment so far for my Wildstar experience.  I've been waiting since f2p launch trying to JUST create a character and this is getting to the point of just giving up.  If Carbine and NCsoft can't put together a decent f2p launch it makes one wonder where there priority is....
 
I'm saying, I understand issues happen but there has been no continuity since f2p was launched.
 
I give Devs time for issues to be resolved but this has been kind of ridiculous.  Come on NCsoft, Can we get this issue resolved so I can play this game.  I have always wanted to play wildstar but at the time I didn't wanna buy the game/sub, so hopefully we get going and Wildstar can get another player willing to invest time and money into this game.
 
Thanks for listening...  Hopefully will see you soon in game.

Dude the game was running b4 so it is not a headstart. There was a Patch and more ppl tried the game exaclty what the devs wanted and knew b4 so why is there like no capacity for that amount of players?
Fanboys...if we complain about something you get mad lol

			cant even login now GG CARBINO lel kek. Such a huge fail

			I do believe they could have just added a server, and then merged it with Lumnai or Jabbit when it was needed. That couldn't have been so hard.

It is not add another server issue.  The server should scale up with demand.  Newer tech used in a lot of new mmos.  Something is probably not working correctly, and I don't think adding more servers will fix it.  I could be wrong.

They should have at the very least had a second PvE sever ready and waiting in case the release was successful. It was or would have been a great launch had they been really prepared but it's not. Sugarcoat it all you want, they have dropped the ball again.
 
I understand things happen but many don't and won't care regardless. If you can't even create a new Character then the severs are overwhelmed.
 
I left and came back figuring to give it a try again. I do still plan on continuing but I know, and if your honest with yourself you should admit, this will impact reviews, post, and the general feeling towards the game.
 
I soooo didn't want this to happen again but it has.

			Nearly every mmo first day is a nightmare queues crashes bugs not being able to log in at all its the same with nearly every mmo ive played.  Guild Wars 2 another NCSoft nightmare for almost a month we had unsheduled maintainence graphic glitches i am not the least bit surprised it will come good server capacity is far too low that is a priority fix.  NCSoft are not to blame too many connections to servers its bound to cause problems,

			A nice way to give them welcome to new players how good they are and what they can expect from this game hahahahha big huge *cupcake* up btw im new and my first exp whit this game is 4 hour que and instant  crash of the game after the long wait , terrible *cupcake* up

Okay, so I've seem to been misunderstood by my post.  Yes, being passive aggressive was a key point trying to get through but it's just been a pretty lousy f2p launch. 
 
They new the launch was coming.  There has been a countdown for awhile, the f2p patch was getting tested through and through.  Like I'm not trying to say this is the worse launch I've seen cause lawd knows there have been some utter fails but why go forward with so many issues.  Come on MAN!!!!
 
It would of been easy to back off and postpone by a day, or w/e time is needed to clear out the issues.  "You can't even CREATE a  Character."  COME ON MAN. 
 
Please don't get butthurt by my lack of enthusiasm for a Post Launch...Launch that isn't really working like they wanted...
 
Again, I am very patient and I understand issues happen.  It's a given, but when you can't even create a toon, it's not hard to understand people are getting frustrated and these types of issues makes me wonder!!!

Wow if that sentence really makes you assume that I'm just stupid or to ignorant to know when f2p launch went down really makes me wonder what type of material fills that head of yours!!! 
 
Like really, do you not understand they went through tons of testing prior to last night and should never have allowed the game to patch with these issues.  It's not hard to back it off a day or two cause we all know how much hype Carbine/NCsoft put into there OWN GAME and also the times launch was pushed back due to issues.
 
I know the creators of this game have pretty stout records of being a solid team, but there lack of continuity and the issues arising since then has called into question if I want to play or not.  
*inb4 one less noob to play Wildstar*
 
I know they will fair just fine without me playing, but I would sure like to have the ability to get In game and try it out. 
 
Again, hopefully that will happen soon....

I love how so many people are crying about this, its like they have never played a mmo when it has just come out or when it goes to f2p. Don't freak out just go about your lives and wait. Ha ha

			a wait to get in does not equal a fail....

			Guys cut them some slack, they have been working really hard to bring you this and all you do is moan.

{| class="blockquote"
wow, you had to wait on launch day....
Are you new to MMO's?

amazed at the thought of calling one self a fanboy..  lol, since you sit there and read a forum on a minute to minute schedule makes you so amazing to make yourself think your **** don't stink baffles me.
 
ERMAGURD..  I AM THE BIGGEST FANBOI, I'M SO PRO AND NOTHING CAN STOP ME.

Ordinarily I'm all for waiting and being patient, but this is completely retarded. They KNEW this was likely to happen, and they did nothing to even prevent it or lessen its impact. Even a single extra server online would have prevented A LOT of this stuff from happening now, and despite all the time they had between announcing free-to-play till now, apparently server stability was the very last thing on their minds.
 
Its even worse because people who have been here since Beta are pretty much being given the middle finger on the whole thing. They did TWO rather lengthy maintenance time blocks while I was awake, before I decided to take a nap for several hours, I imagine they had more than those two, and yet the issues are still not even close to being fixed.
