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.
Cheers for posting that, I nearly broke and paid the exorbitant £45 to buy from Blizzard but F that if it's still difficult logging in anyway. edit: heh, feel the wrath on
metacritic.
I even traipsed about town looking to buy retail but they've all sold out. Only the biggest HMV and the one remaining GAME store have so much as a token shelf for PC games. This is in the capital of Scotland...
Sounds worthy of the £32 on Amazon though so I should have it for the weekend edit2: maybe not, both Amazon uk and Play are out of stock, not seen that for a while. Annoyed at the Blizz price though. Near 50% premium for bandwidth even though they don't need to pay for making a physical disk, packaging, distribution and the retailer's margin? AND the download doesn't come with the guest passes to give away.
'course, if anyone has an EU guest pass going spare...
