What happens if there is server downtime during Early Access?

Like most hyped new game releases and expansions, servers are hammered to the point they are unusable or down. For the people that paid extra to play early, will we get a refund if it’s unplayable? Thanks.

Then there is downtime during early access… IF you played more than someone who doesn’t have early access then you played early access…

This again?

Most of us did not buy the epic version for the 3 day early access. We buy them for mounts, pets, mogs etc.

As with any release, downtime may happen. Even next week during regular launch. It is what it is.

And that is stated clearly ‘on the box’, so to speak.

People will lose their minds and demand their $0.30 refund for the day. There will also be a few fresh “I am quitting WOW” threads too.

Honestly, I don’t expect to be able to play much on Thursday anyway

You get early access to disappointment, you lucky fella.

No. You don’t. You didn’t technically pay extra to get early access. It was a free perk added in with your game.

idk, i bought the normal edition. not in a hurry to play it anyway.

Post your Venmo here, I’ll send you a quarter.

I mean, since the wod mess up legion was great, bfa was great, sl was great, and even df was ok if you caught the boat right away, but it did screw up after that, more often than not recently launches have been fine, and there’s no boat this time!

I get to laugh at you for spending 40 less dollars than you to not experience that

huh… what happens… huh. huh.

I’m ordering 20 tables to flip, right now. rental places should be cheap.

Also doing a quick 30 minute reservation at the local smash room.

I think I’ll be fine.
