    Too many problems, too soon

    Although, I've been playing MMO's and console games for many years now, I can't recall a game that players have had as much trouble with as this one.

    For me, downloading and getting in was easy, early this morning. What gave me problems was creating an account to buy the game. It took me about a good 45 mins as I continually battled trying to make an account simply to be rejected by it.

    I played the game this morning for the very first time and I enjoyed myself. I liked it. The only problem I see is that the game doesn't explain some of the things it should, leaaving you to either come here for answers or figure it out yourself.

    Hope you guys resolve your problems.

    Are they SimCity like issues? If not, then they're doing OK.

    This is a smooth launch compared to Diablo 3 man, SWTOR was worse too.
    Don't be insulted because i don't wanna explain myself, i was probably joking anyway.

    Grimwyrd has a series of videos called Defiance FAQ on youtube that really helped me understand the mechanics of the game and how ego rating and points worked. I highly suggest watching it.

    I have played WoW and most of their expansions on launch, GW2 on launch, D3 on launch, and a few others. And I must say, this is by far the BEST launch of any of them. You got to login early, while yes there were a few bugs, but its to be expected.

    So when you say this game has had the worst launch of all the games you played, you must not have played any then or played them long after the launch time.

    GW2 Launch.
    D3 Launch.
    DC Universe Launch.
    SimCity Launch.
    SWTOR Launch.
    Lich King Launch.
    Cataclysm Launch.
    RIFT Launch.
    Aion Launch ...

    Etc.

    I haven't had any issues with the game surprisingly other than the download issue. I turned off my firewall for the download and that fixed the 0.15MB/s download rate I was getting. I've been through far worse launch days.

    WTF? Were you even there for RIFT launch? It was the smoothest MMO launch I have ever witnessed, of which I am sure there are a multitude of people willing to agree with.

    I was there for the Launch of Anarchy Online, great game but worst launch ever. and once you have experianced that sort of launch anything is better

    this I had no problems Downloading, getting my claimed items, no crashes, no lag, was a one of the best launches I've been in
