The small indie developer Blizzard meme has never had more truth behind it. This launch has been absolute trash . Lag on top of lag, instanced or not . Random disconnects , bugged talent trees, and the auction house full of ghost items. And the list goes on . All for what’s starting out as a aggressively mid expansion.

Since EA 2 d/cs…aside from that some daily maintenances which is typical during expansion release week. I believe you need to get a new pc and o/s. Release has been the best for me so far.

Honestly though, I don’t rember BfA’s and SL’s launch being this bad.

My stuff is only one generation behind and got the nice big city modern broadband. Stop defending a billion dollar company owned by Microsoft.
EA was the smoothest 4 days of play I’ve ever seen at launch time, 5 hours to level to 80 just from dungeon que alone. No complaining or lag. Only real complaint I had during those 4 days was I made the personal decision to level 2 professions and spend 3 million gold to do it. Should I make a post about that and demand my gold back now?
Now come official launch day with thousands and thousands more players joining the servers, Me personally, have had ZERO dc’s nor super lag spikes. IDK what 's going on with some of the people having issues.

I’d say the lag is because they cheap out on server capacity to maximize profits. They aren’t willing to expand capcity for the few months that they need it, during expansion releases/big patches.
It’s the same old story every time.

Yeah, it’s been pretty smooth for me as well with EA. No way I am spending that much gold on professions, but then that’s why I don’t rake in the big bucks offering my profession skills.
Other then a few DCs and a couple of crashes the launch has been smooth for me.

You are probably correct. After a few months the IO hunters will all cancel subs again once they hit their KSM and personal ilvl goal and we won’t hear from them until season 2 again. Happens every time
its only bad because the poors flooded the servers every day.
early access was way better
These I have no had. Not saying they don’t exist, but havent had.
The rest, I know some talent trees are bugged. I havent touched the AH besides selling, so nothing there I can say. There are definitely a lot of bugs, most are small though. Not saying its excusable, but it’s def not as bad as people make it out to be.
Now the big bugs on the other hand… thats a whole different problem that shouldnt have happened. Echoes Warbound gear disappearing or turning soulbound, patron orders suddenly not working after a patch… etc etc.
first launch huh?
you’ll be fine.
