Welcome to the fucking year of fixing the game. Every fucking time. Every fucking patch. Bush league.

But hey, at least the FOMO marketing and sales loop is reliable.

You're not wrong, and quite literally there isn't an excuse they can legitimately use.

 

[LurchLord]

To my eternal surprise, who could have seen that coming, how novel, how fresh and new.

Don’t play with fire if you don’t wanna be burned.

You'll never make it in sales &/or marketing LOL

 

[BUTUZ]

I tried got loads of errors server errors etc.

Tried again got in and then got stuck forever in a train going diagonally past all the stations.

Gave up for now.

 

[Daak Gelrin]

I did manage to log in after some time, and played bug free for a couple of hours.
I think there was one server error, but it was over pretty quick.
I felt really lucky, and got to try out the Golem and Geo.
I know Hathor isn't for me, especially right now, so I just won't give it a go for a while.
Game crashed on me after trying the GEO out for a little bit, and wasn't able to log back in.

Remember, even if you get in the game...

If you don't want to participate in the PvP event, you're a "coward" or "lazy" or "whatever", so just go salvage. - CIG

Lol, huh? This guy seriously said that. Now I am shamed for not trying it, and will pull out my vulture upon logging in(if I can get in that is).

 

[Mudhawk]

Lol, huh? This guy seriously said that.

Well, I'm not surprised after looking into his dark, empty eyes. That's one broken soul I tell ya.
Probably too much overtime, too many energy drinks and too much marketing breathing down his neck.
Confront him about his quote in a couple of weeks after he got some semblance of sleep.
I bet he'll die of embarassement...

seems the servers are better since yesterday (April Fix Day)

Yeah...
Late Triggerfish, huh?
Not gonna fall for that!

But honestly, I got 2 accounts.
Same server cluster, one account always ends with a timeout on login. the other one works fine.
Only difference, the one timing out is resting his ass in Stanton (Pyro Gateway).
The one actually getting the job done is in Pyro (Orbituary).
Chance?
Fate?
Or... Predetermination?
Who knows....?
