Hey, just checking in to let you know, like the other person. I’m also Central, servers still aren’t able to be logged into. You’re not missing anything.

You da real MVP :slight_smile: Guess I’ll be scoping it out after the stress test is over…I just want to level a mage to 10 to see if that’s what I still want to play! :disappointed_relieved:

And considering enough people are available to crash it now, does it even matter if we do it now, vs the weekend?

Your time is much better spent, doing ANYTHING at work, compared to looking at a login screen for two hours.

Don’t worry you’re not missing much unless you like to stare at a login screen.

I know a person that knows a person that knows this other person. But dude, I also cracked the secret to life. But I cant tell you unless you give me a beta invite :wink:

Also Sakaar didnt get his streamer prio to log in to the stress test please help him!

Have a good day and stress test! Ty

Those poor, poor keyboards.

anyway to get an insight into what blizzard is working on?

the authenticating / dns servers seem really smooth- handling the q quite well. (again)

now stuck on “logging into game server”

are there new “mega” servers being tested / implemented?

does this have anything to do with testing out the layering (phasing / sharding) servers?

any info would be great

Frozen after a 0 que straight login… many attempts. Still going! Cannot login to game server
Got char screen 1 time
Almost pooped myself
This is a joke

Blizzard HQ is in california, it is currently 3:15pm in california. The dev’s like most people go home at 5pm-6pm. If they are at home they cant run the stress test, they cant monitor the stress test to see what needs to be fixed…
