I'm getting incredibly pissed off as well, particularly as goa seem to be completely AWOL today.

 

[Guyton]

waiting so long for the code activation emails makes me think it didn't work but then can't even try entering the code again as that page has disappeared or at least it has for me and with Headstart a few days away I not confident they will manage to cope with the backlog by then but I bet they get a page up and running asking for your credit card details though

 

[bobfish]

Just thought of something...

Spamming an automated system would not yield better results than just sending in one request, therefore it must be a manual process on their end. Where the GOA employee sees the spam coming in an reacts to it to stop it, rather than just continuing to work through the queue in order.

LOL, so true

 

[areis]

Spammed the registration system for days now, still no email, still no game. This really is a farce. All our complaining will not get Mystic to sack GOA, nor will it get the Beta on much faster. I specifically pre-ordered this game to get early beta access, so saying that it is "free" is neither here nor there. I took a few days off work to get in my playtime, and I think we can all agree that GOA knows they got late to this party.

I fully expect GOA to re-imburse people that have not gotten into the beta through one of the retail channels (pre order, SE, CE, etc.) by way of extra playtime.

Even better would be to issue all players with a non-combat pet that is attackable and that looks like the GOA CEO.....

 

[Tiani]

This is stupid now i can't believe i opened my inbox to no email today, truely shocking for such a big game i don't know why they let goa anywhere near it. Its really putting me off playing the game all together now i was really looking forward to it and now im just frustrated especailly as my boyfriend has been playing beta since sunday night which is just torture, goa need to get their act together quickly.

Least you got that far Still cant even make an account, doesnt look likely I will be playing OB or the game at all for that matter, not gonna give such a blatent piss taking amateur company my hard earned cash!

Please don't tell me GOA are running that as well?!!!!

 

[Saggy]

Took me less than 3 hours to get into US-beta and that includes downloading the client + patching Cancelled my EU preorder and ordered US-version instead - too many years of pathetic customer service with DAoC and looks like things haven't changed. GOA simply fucked things up and they dont deserve my money.

... but I bet they get a page up and running asking for your credit card details though

haha yea dont think they'll get that wrong...

 

[Enz]

I am here, at work with everything ready to play, just not at home.

 

[GeForce8]

Yeah i have recieved the mail from Goa guys but it was too late , in 2 hours i have made an acc , recieved all confirmations on Mythic and downloaded the U.S client and played the game , it's very simple , i couldn't just wait for those GOA guys , i suggest u guys do the same , the game is very fun ( Chaos level 4 )

 

[Leaky8800]

dont be so sure mate, plenty of ppl have been "confirmed to play" and still cant log in, its a mess

Epic fail from GOA

 

[Heta]

if only wasnt for all the people thats playing EU, I would have gone to US without blinking

now I payed for a CE, and get to sit and wait for a damn mail for ages...

the letters GOA should be acronym for a state of mind, like, utterly dissapointment

 

[Celestra]

update: I still dont have my email ! Am I suprised? Hell no! This is the third day I've sat here in front of the pc. I did the spamming this morning in the hopes (like the lucky buggers) I would get an email, nothing has been delivered and its been over an hour since the spamming. Last night I was finally able to put in my beta code, I did it only the once, 8 hours later, wake up check my inbox, nothing.
Maybe I'll get my email when the game goes live, and what bloody good will that be.

[Leaky8800]

haha i just had a browse of google to try and find some kinda of GOA customer support, or a website at all, some means to contact them and maybe find out what the hell is going on...i found nothing :S anyone know of any means to email those guys?

 

[pito]

oh so it looks i am not teh only sad soul still waiting for an e-mail i wonder what the chances are that ill get it today?

 

[Heta]

I predicted last friday that I wouldn't be able to get online and try the game untill this friday that is coming up... see how close I will get, starting to have my doubt tho, think its more likley to not be able to try it untill the early access (which I also have doubt about beeing intime)

 

[Celestra]

Has anyone posted a link to find the US servers? if so what page is it on, because I don't fancy trawling through this thread to find it lol

I'm severly pissed off, I just wish Mythic and EA would take notice of this fiasco, sack GOA for the huge mess they have made of the european launch of their game, take over and settle our problems in the professional manner we all know EA and Mythic are capable of. Saturday should have been the best day of Mythics and EA's life, instead it's turned into a massive headache.

 

[mooSe_]

Well er I'm not even at the waiting for email stage yet so count yourself lucky...why is the registration thing not up yet?

 

[wooly]

Maybe we should all ask Mythic what is going on...

"For overseas media inquires please email intlpress@mythic.ea.com"

hoooo hum...

Wooly

 

[Celestra]

No m8 ur not, it's a very sad state of affairs. I hope u get ur email too, I hope we all get our emails, because if we don't the Eu servers will be empty and the US servers full to overflowing.

I'm currently massaging my earlobes and chanting "wooshaa woooshaaa"

Due to my work i start searching around a few books for sql server 2008 and i found an online book which starts like this:

"If there's one job where lack of planning leads to a chaotic and reactive work environment, surely it's that of the Database Administrator."

I think it is quite relevant with our problem here

The've said the registration part of the site it will not be up till tomorrow...

Being an Oracle DBA I couldn't agree more...

The old saying "PISS POOR PLANNING LEADS TO POOR PERFORMANCE" does stand in this case...

[Heta]

but they were confident that it would run smoothly aslong as they waited as long as they possible could before putting the registrations up

and true, it went very smooth for a long time, that is, untill the put it up which even a 4 year old with half a brain would know

True but then good planning can still end up with disasters sometimes, thats what makes rolling new things out such a nervy time.
