  • wow_sepp Sebastian Schiffer (@wow_sepp) reported

    @PezRadar is the forum thread for the lauch problem closed now or is the max posting count 2437? Any Updates on locked Chars and AVX Problem?

  • Hustlemode Hustle (@Hustlemode) reported

    @PezRadar @JimmyFunnellCFC @GoScienze If you know what causes the issue, and how to fix it. Why have some of us been locked out for going on 24 hours? Doesn't really make sense.

  • gordstar1 gordstar1 (@gordstar1) reported

    @PezRadar @JimmyFunnellCFC @GoScienze Has blizzard been giving high profile streamers priority on this issue, as they seem to have zero long issues like a huge amount of the playerbase. It's extremely frustrating seeing certain streamers getting a seemingly flawless experience while we have to experience this.

  • greg__wilcox greg wilcox (@greg__wilcox) reported

    @PezRadar @PezRadar any update on character lock outs it has been since 9:00 am this morning. So many people are having this issue and so many of us took the day off to play this at launch.

  • kacefir1 kacefir (@kacefir1) reported

    @PezRadar @JimmyFunnellCFC @GoScienze avx problem will be fixed ? 10gen processors dont have and i thing much more

  • DTrainFitness Daniel Redlien (@DTrainFitness) reported

    @PezRadar @Tamiraq So the fix won’t be in the patch coming out next???? We can’t even log in to even try to play and that’s not your #1 issue????

  • Gskskskskakkdfn Ssapeeejxjx (@Gskskskskakkdfn) reported

    @PezRadar @RayLegg5 hopefully? this seems like a very simple thing to patch, idk why its taking so long, oh tell ur CS on forums to never say "ur issue is not a priority", even if it was a single person is a very rude thing to say, but thousands of people are having this problem

  • Runningpaw Leo (@Runningpaw) reported

    @PezRadar @JimmyFunnellCFC @GoScienze Appreciate the update, questions many have are: why was there absolute radio silence for ~15 hours? Is there overnight staff or on call staff to handle game-breaking day 1 issues? If so, why was there no progress or communication? Easier to wait if we know it's being worked on

  • raider8701 Levi Moore (@raider8701) reported

    @PezRadar Does the dev team have a lead on the 'character already in server' issue? Some people have been stuck like this for over 20 hours, hoping to hear that the end is near on this bug.

  • OrbitalFrame7 Wootz43 (@OrbitalFrame7) reported

    @PezRadar Blizz techs need to chill with the roll backs. If servers need to be shut down for a while, or players can't get in, that's fine for now. What's not cool is players losing items and level progression after a "fix". That's a sacrifice, not a fix. Please respect players' times.

  • Anariuson Santi (@Anariuson) reported

    @PezRadar The Playbutton/AVX problem should be your first priority, since we can't even play the game offline...and other problems have workaround; but on that post is 5 on the list. Losing my hope on you...

  • HaskelJedian Jedian Haskel (@HaskelJedian) reported

    @RodFergusson @JoelH1612 @PezRadar "It's launch day, people on tech support forums are reporting inability to launch the client, but why don't you all go home for the night and get a full night's sleep. Who needs a skeleton crew of programmers and IT to tackle this issue overnight?"

  • RodFergusson Rod Fergusson (@RodFergusson) reported

    @JoelH1612 @PezRadar We're actively working on it right now. It's not a straightforward fix so that's why there's no ETA.

  • jonRVT JonRVT (@jonRVT) reported

    @PezRadar @JimmyFunnellCFC @GoScienze Can you not just reset the server to fix this issue until you roll out a patch?

  • reddeadrevenge2 Joseph Zayas (@reddeadrevenge2) reported

    @isiah47507446 @GearsofWar It was Jack. People are having a bit of trouble reading.
