Day 3 of epic fail Open Beta

Well after yesterdays debocle I thought I would go out last night and chill out, calm down and hope that today it will all be sorted,

But what do you know 'we have taken the account creation pages down' nice one

So now I have had my beta key for over a week, been trying to register an account for basically 3 days to no avail. How can they even justify this apsolute bullshit?

Am I gonna buy this game ? Fuck no! Am I gonna consider playing on US servers, most definately.

I feel bad for Mythic, this game is the shit basically and GoA completely destroying it in europe before the friggin thing even goes retail.

3 days of pathetic problems that should have been forseen and accounted for well before launch.

Mythic, wise up, fuck GoA off and get someone who knows what they are doing before its too late! I imagine this fuck up has cost them a fair few potention clients. I know if I had pre ordered I would be cancelling it by now.

Complete Joke.

Working in IT I cringed when people were saying that "spamming" your validation key was working. I thought, surely not, they must have put something in place which means those who entered their keys first would be the first to get confirmation emails.

However, it's early in the morning, I am drinking my coffee and start filling out validation requests. I must have filled out about 10 or so, more than half were getting the spinning wheel of death. So I refreshed.

Then I get the new mail, 3 of em in my inbox, 1 "Registration confirmation" and 2 "Registration issue"'s.

It works, I can't believe it. Problem is, I am at work and have another 8 hours before I can get home and start patching.

Shame I didn't know about this last night, at least I could have kicked the patcher off and gone to bed. Bah, who am I trying to kid, I would have stayed up till I saw the game! hehe

And yes I have checked my junk emails and its not there. Well looks like GOA have lost another customer. I'm fed up with this bullshit...back to World of Warcraft, at least Blizzard manages to get things right most of the time. Roll on Wrath of the Bitch Queen.

OK. The race is on. I've given GOA a 14 hour head start. Let's see if I can obtain a US beta key, download the client and get playing before GOA can process one beta key application.

No key still. Have downloaded US version overnight and have key and account for it. Shame I need to go to work...

This whole process seems so random and I haven't a clue what to do. I created an account as instructed (though I had one already) got the email- confirmed it then I went to the page to enter my code entered all in sent off all ok at 4:45pm on the 8th but as of now 8:53 9th still no activation confirmation email. I just dont know what to do now - do I try again (when they deem to let us have access) or wait or give up and to be honest give up is looking pretty damn tempting I dont think I can take another day of getting nowhere
