I was playing a perfectly good game of Fallout 4 when I tried to load up Overwatch. They kept me waiting 2 weeks only to cuckold me once again on launch day.

I will never tire of that word filter.

Ddraig posted:

You had 14 Days. If after that time you couldn't get servers running. I am deleting my characters, and cancelling all of my accounts. The rest of my group will follow suit, as will several other group and people that play Overwatch
.
To be brief, I did not work my rear end off, jumping through your idiotic hoops with my friends and grou[mates, so I could go to a login where only groups of 2 could enjoy the content. EVEN if past these initial moronic events I can finally get my entire group in to play with me, gently caress YOU GUYS. Seriously, gently caress YOU.

I cannot believe this... right now I'm just so pissed off. I am sitting here in the login screen, and 3/4 of my group is just sitting around while a group of 2 is repeatedly trying to log in. Don't you people have ANY loving DECENCY? KAPLAN WHY DON'T YOU STOP COUNTING YOUR MONEY AND START ISSUING ORDERS?

The tragic irony of creating the ultimate cockblock in the form of the login which requires 20 minutes to connect and then to limit attempts to 2 every second....

14 Days.... this site will change from the most popular OW fan site on the internet to the most popular Battleborn fan site on the internet. I'm done playing ball with you useless fuckers... it's my turn.

I want this to be real.

I hate how the map on the login screen periodically moves fast because it makes me think something is happening but nope

Ha. You aren't kidding. Website is toast. So many people trying to figure out if Overwatch is actually supposed to be out yet.

I feel bad Blizzard probably gave some random thousands in server bills.

It's not about having it figured out. There's almost no way to keep a major online game from getting slammed at launch.

To be fair the beta did result in hype levels flying out of control so maybe they're just getting hammered way more than they thought

Or its just blizzard

Also the problem is once you pay for all the server capacity to handle millions of people trying to log in at once, once things stabilize, you've got a loving ton of servers sitting idle not doing poo poo.
