Not a game developer, though that's gotta be cool as hell. And you say 30 minute downtime as if this was an anomaly... As if I didn't spend over 5 hours last night and hours already tonight frustrated as hell between downloading and dashboarding and deleting crap off my hard drive just so I can download summore just trying to play this game but coming up empty. 30 minute downtime? No problem! Looking forward as hell to this game just to have it be unplayable CONSTANTLY since I had it in my hands? Yeah, not so much.
just loaded into game
estimated wait time to play the game 6 days. did i really get a message just telling me that lol? this has Diablo 3 written all over it. oh wait i'm on for a minute oh wait timed
Some entertaining things came from this lag, some friends and I got to see flying hellbugs as well as a weird type of "dance" caused by moving while in major lag.
I'm pretty sure the servers are getting overloaded by the amount of people buying and playing the game...
