Re: Best launch ever?
Not on Scryers/Argent Dawn!!!
The lag was ridiculous, the server/world crashes were regular for the first hour or two, and the garrison quest was unavailable - it was bugged to hell and back.
That said, I was a TAD obsessive and ended up playing until 8 this morning, and starting around 5AM the servers were stable and lag was completely gone.
But the quests are a BLAST!!! I didn't participate this year in the beta, although I could have. So it was all a beautiful surprise for me, and I was absolutely in love with how it worked. A very linear beginning, then a gradual loosening of the quest lines. I think a bit more enjoyable that the almost too-rigid questing paradigm of MoP.
A bit of palindromic wisdom:
"Step on no pets!"
Casual player.. don't raid, don't PvP. Suffer from extreme altitis
I love pets - combat or non.

I gave up last night I was in game near the portal like half hour before release
and like 5 mins before release mass dc and could not get back in.
and yea lots of stacking on npc near the garrison quests managed to get till there got my garrison and when i got ported in i fell thought the world now for the last hour I have been trying to get back in game. Going from queue to error retrieving char list back to queue....
Worst launch for me tbc, wrath all went smooth, cata was okeish after I got in. MoP similar release to Wod during the night but next day I got in and do every thing just fine so I guess wod is worse

Re: Best launch ever?
Server stability wise, however... Not so good. Frostfire Ridge crashed and sent everyone to Shrine, the Garrisons bugged and trapped players in them, and the lag is currently at nearly unplayable levels.
The people are nice, though.

Needless to say, Wyrmrest Accord is having a rough day. XD Not too many DCs, but plenty of lag all around and queue time. It's taking me over an hour just to log on. XD
NEW SIGNATURE PENDING... SOON.

Re: Best launch ever?
You got lucky.. it was horrible on Anvilmar.. Game kept freezing, lagging.. it's been lagging out on and off all day, and now I can't get in. Stuck at 90% loading. When I do get in, I can't do anything. You can't cast, hearth, use portal or create anything.Danielfboone wrote:Here on Draka in the US this was the BEST launch in the game's history. No lag, no crashes, no queue times on my server, and no bugged quests. It even launched 15 minutes early. The smoothest expansion launch ever.
I believe if you can believe out of nothing an explosion (big bang) happened then how far fetched can god be?
