This is one of the worst launches of a game I've ever seen.

I am a current and active Rift player and I have never had to deal with issues like this. I've played WoW GW2 SWTOR Rift and MANY other MMOs at launch and I have never had to deal with not being able to play the game after 2 days. I convinced many of my friends to play this game but about half of them returned it because they couldn't even play it. Seriously whats going on Trion?

What a bunch of lies. WoW had serious launch problems the first 1,5 week. And swtor was almost as bad. oo Not to mention UO release... or Conan even.

Stop pretending to be a smartass. ALL online games have severe issues at release dates

GW2 failed hard, so did WoW, and SWToR. What are you talking about?

You haven't been able to play the game after two days? That's funny considering I've already hit 236.

The reason why it is a rough start, is that everyone that owns the game is being put in the same server. I have played WoW and SWtOR, and the major difference between those and Defiance is that Defiance dumps everyone one into a melting pot, instead of having multiple servers.
