when i clicked back they logged me out so i was trying to create the entire time
offline LOL

This is exactly why they should do staggered times on launch.

 

[mingsoup]

No. This is exactly why they shouldn't have always ON DRM on a single player game. 🙂

 

[DAGTA]

One less person trying to fight for server space... I'm going to bed. Have fun, guys.

 

[Adrenaline]

No. This is exactly why they shouldn't have always ON DRM on a single player game. 🙂

woot player has been disconnected error 3005.

 

[mingsoup]

Don't go! The more you click the longer we can keep this going. Further inflaming people.

stupid 37

 

[GoStumpy]

Had a couple cool error messages when logging in... besides the normal error 37...

"Player has been disconnected, Error 3005"
and
"Unable to connect to the service or the connection was interrupted, Error 3003"

I wonder if it's all the other regions trying to logon to the US one.

 

[Soccerman06]

Well Im going to go to bed and sleep for a couple hours, maybe itll be fixed by then.

 

[mingsoup]

Hilarious.

"Yes after 11 years of waiting... Error 37 servers are busy."
From Kotaku comments section.

Its the principle of it. Yeah its just a game. But I don't want my hobby shackled up like this. It does mean something to me. I want to play when and where I want to.
We can't play our *single player* game right now! This should bother people!

The Blizzard family of websites is currently undergoing maintenance to improve your browsing experience. Thank you for your patience!

Translation: Our servers blew up.

and I'm out.

 

[slayer202]

[Anonemous]

almost tempted to play on the asian/EU servers

 

[masterxfob]

screw it, i'll try again in the morning :\

 

[AznAnarchy99]

Ive never understood midnight launches without thinking ahead about server loads.

 

[Adrenaline]

Now, I am beyond fucking irritated at this point.

 

[CrowDog]

Even the WoW website is down...lol

 

[mingsoup]

Good. GOOOOOD. This is because of the Nazi DRM. Please spread your discontent. Blog about it. Tell your neighbors, how bad always on DRM is.

 

[watek]

I'm playing 😛

 

[Adrenaline]

Do they only have one authentication server?

 

[AznAnarchy99]

Do they only have one authentication server?

This happens at every large launch and yet they dont think ahead.

 

[Adrenaline]

An hour is gone. This sucks and is getting worse.
