This is reminding me of Diablo III's launch.

Illidan is still down AFAIK. Nobody from my friends list is online yet.
120 vs 120 world pvp (while fighting a world boss) is more the scenario he was referring to. Too many calculations going on.
They need to hard limit the number of people in a shard. Even if you join a raid group with someone in that shard. More than 20 people? Sorry. Can't join that raid group. Too bad!

With sharding there is really no excuse at all for servers impacting this sort of thing.

How joyous to be in such a place! Where phishing is not only allowed, it is encouraged!
Imagine when you try to buy it again 3 days later because if withdrawal and blizzard say no. When that happens please make a thread about it.

Sorry for the late reply. I was busy playing the game? How's that black screen?
The problem does exist, and it's only the beginning. There is also zero acknowledgment or any announcement from blizzard, which makes them look very stupid when majority players experiencing same problems. Blizzard is cowering in corner that they sales will hurt if they admit to a problem.
After an hour I can finally log on. So seems to be improving
Blizzard fix this please it seems every expansion launch there is always a connection issues
I think you guys are forgetting a couple of things.
1. We're in the middle of a pandemic. EVERYONE in the world is working and going to school remotely, which means more of an impact than ever before on the servers. People who would normally stagger their workdays or school days were all available at launch time. It's hard to predict what type of impact that will have on the servers.
2. Blizzard is also working remotely, or at reduced capacity at the office. We saw the expansion delayed because of this, there is a huge chance the launch is being impacted by this as well. In addition, Covid can also impact staffing.
Have a little patience. This isn't our first rodeo.
lol, a 16 year old game still having issues on launch when I had no issues at all nor did any when Cata came out with OVER 12.1MILLION subs back then vs prob what 1/4th now hell on mmo-c.com here most of you say wow has less than 1M players so.. gtfo with this whole "Oh its launch" when you're also saying how dead the game is lolo

Ill was WAY MORE constant players than stormrage could ever dream, you're looking at alts on wowprogress, that's nothing vs how many active players are on Illidan
Lol im waiting till tomorrow to play SL. I'm in no rush or anything. Just plan on enjoying my monk this expansion at my own pace this time around.
It is all that is left unsaid upon which tragedies are built -Kreia
The internet: where to every action is opposed an unequal overreaction.
Area 52 here. Haven't been able to get on since clicking ICC portal at launch.
Why Blizzard hasn't put a login queue in place is dumbfounding to me.
Played some RDR2 and came back 2 hours later. Can't get in, but at least now it's giving me a 'character not found' and booting me back to the character select screen, and not disconnecting me entirely. It's a start!
