As someone who is technologically incompetent why is this? I’m not shitting on GGG as it happens to every game launch like this. Servers overload and crash and then they get a grasp on stuff.

Is it that they can’t anticipate how much server action they’ll get or what is the reason?

Genuinely curious


The short answer is, yes.

I do not think they planned to have nearly the amount of EA users they currently have (over 1 million keys redeemed).
It's not easy to narrow down definitively the number of users who will be playing at launch and purchase the needed additional computing power/needs to accommodate that without overspending or being underprepared.

I dont understand the modern gamer and their expectations. Literally people have no idea how hard this stuff really is. This is early access and they are literally communicating and have been communicating with us all through out.

Hitting enter makes a different sound than clicking login with the mouse.

This is a huge discovery.

Edit: Also go through your settings and make sure it's what you want!

This too, but also they couldn't do some work beforehand because they wanted to release today. So some work had to be done now, and something failed or they observed something that will fail and had to be fixed
