ok list updated / formatted better

Updating recipe List while servers are down, it will be back up in a bit

yea no doubt

nothing much else going on so we decided to give this a run.

SWTOR is next on the horizon for new things it seems and maybe some GW2

its been a min. good to see you guys going to FFXIV

amariu!!!! long time no see lol

ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOOOTBALll?!?!?!?

can anyone access the beta site?

got my key thanks to the tooth fairy in the middle of the night

game on!

wow I went and tried to get a key and I got one this am. I was comin to tell yas ... but I guess its old news !!woot woot

I also just got my key on my first try this morning, now I just need to finish downloading... only at 4% so far...

yep another update - got my key this morning, first try

another ff14 update

yeah they did screw all closed/alpha over.

i have no problem with the open beta.. the way they did it was retarded.. download first.. then you might get in.. but i have never been shat on like this when i was a closed/alpha tester. every game ive tested and the list is greater then 10 games. they dont make you reapply for an open beta

i expect better from a company that has released and still running mmo

yeah i checked this morning and I was at 99.5% 2 of 4 after like 36 hours of downloading with port forwarding, could just be my shitty router lololol

I just got into the habit of torrents every patch, it goes a lot faster, i dont think the patch works at all to be honest interms of downloading.

also 3.5 hour long IHOP meetings with no lunch is not a good idea lololol

this is nothing compared to WoW's open beta. stress test, that was a NIGHTMARE

yeah cy its just my frustrations due to slow downloads etc, it is an open beta not a launch :-P

I think the only game Ive played that had a flawless release was Lotro and we all know why their release was flawless

I remember in L2 having to hammer the character login screen for hours just to get in and that was on release

It isnt their first game that is true, but no company can just assume to know how the server will react to being hammered. Its ridiculous to think they should, WoW crashed at launch, Aion crashed at launch, EQ2 crashed at launch, None of these games had an Open beta, except aion but aion was even more popular then expected at launch.

Open beta is a stress test, its whole purpose is to do exactly what its doing now.

canceling preorders is a massive over reaction.

We expect way too much out of online games nowadays. Think back to other releases and the headaches...

I think its silly to react like that to a an open beta, they are obviously stress testing for release. Tell me a game where this hasnt happened?

Well I have not invested any time in a Dl or struggle with the key situation nor have I preordered anything. Saph saying he is close to canceling his is enough reason for me to walk away. This is not their first game and server stability should be paramoutn to anything else. If you cant log in, you can not test right?

It is open beta, which basically translates into a stress test, its not surprising that the login serers crashed day one, along with the website.

Just doesnt make sense to threaten to cancel your preorder because of it.

better to crash now, then sept 22.

So I should just skip all the headaches and just stick to LOL?

yeah im about to cancel my pre-order, im getting fed up

well game down so is updater so your not missing a thing. back to lol for another day
