Well, i wanted to play today,and yesterday,and the day before. But the login server has hated me most of open beta, i understand that in beta you get bugs. But i kind of seriously regret doing a preorder. i really really really do, because i have barely been able to play the damned game quite frankly, looking back, i would have hit tier 2 a looong time ago, but i am still level frikkin 6 2 bars to 7, because of only ONE damned reason- "cannot connect to login server" or  o nce i load in i see that red "disconnected from server", i tried over and over and over and after a point, i would ease frustrating myself and stop. I love what i have experienced but quite frankly if this continues past open beta i will delay even playing for several months i feel sympathy for all the haters on the basis of performance, i try aand be optimistic but i think about the  massive surge of live players and even MORE likelihood the servers will hit stress overload, and i foresee more frustration than i want to deal with.

A real shame cryptic...you had me..it's just a question of retention and the game has yet to go live.

How many of you were at the EPIC FAIL! invasion event?   ...I missed it but I guess the klingons were totally slaughtered.

BEcause:

There was zero instruction by the GMs.

And the klingons had only 1 spawn point ..

So feds were killing them as soon as they entered the system...and as soon as they beamed to the stations...

....

I am not canceling any orders over this..... who is? :-) I know some of you people that were there really want to :-P .

I was there. Hope Cryptic learns from this. I was so disappointed with the event I went back to doing missions. However, at one point I went to Risa and there was an even match between both sides, got a good battle in there. If Cryptic can fix this to where it will be even and fair between the two sides, it will be a blast.

9th Fleet decided to go AWOL on Risa during the event. Got some nice screens, lounged, and had a dance party with a Naussicaan.
