The game launched 18hrs ago in the UK and the servers are still too busy to connect to. Blizzard really screwed the pooch with this one. Very unimpressed.
Yep. I was able to log in immediately after work, but the gameplay was laggy and wonky.. Then, presumably as more people got home from work/school, I suddenly started getting friggin' pop-up boxes with "The request has timed out!" while I was playing.. I.e. a big error box with an OK button that would pop up constantly. I tried relogging which was a bad idea, because now it's impossible to log back in. Very smooth launch Blizzard, very smooth indeed.
Looking forward to that reconciliation WoW pet that I won't have any use for because I don't play WoW. At least I saw it coming from a mile away, so didn't bother taking any time off work to play.
