Would be a bit worrying if performance wasn't good when only a handful could get into the game in the first placeSharkith wrote:The reports I am getting is that performance in game is very very good. So no issues in there as yet. I should be up and running shortly.
As for the website falling over - to be honest I am not a web expert so I really don't know what to say.
It's just a shame they didn't take the time between DAoC's slowing down and the ramping up for Warhammer to learn some of the basic techniques about running high availability, high performance services. I would've thought that might be a priority if they're truly trying to promote themselves as a changed organisation.
The issue this time round is Warhammer will almost certainly be a lot more popular, netting a player base in the millions rather than the few hundred thousand as DAoC did so if GOA don't get their act together soon it's going to be a whole lot more high profile each time this time around but of course it's going to be even harder again because they'll likely be facing higher demand than ever before. It'll certainly be interesting to see how it plays out over the next few years.
