[Megathread] Launch Discussion

[Grave]

Let's get the ball rollin'.

Server is UP!

Usual PSA:

• Expect stability issues/DDoS, be patient.
• Don't be antisocial, help each other out in-game and out.
• Be welcoming of new players asking newbie questions, don't be discouraging.
• Got questions? Read the FAQ first than ask away. Multiboxing is NOT allowed (except for special conditions, like banking) viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3
• Download and setup Game Client? viewtopic.php?f=32&t=638
• Need addons? viewtopic.php?f=32&t=605
• Need a game account? Goto http://en.nostalrius.org/ browse to the bottom of the page. (PS. Your forum account is not a game account.)

Please make sure your realmlist.wtf file is set to: set realmlist login.nostalrius.org

Delete your WDB folders. (Deleting it does not change your UI, only makes sure you don't have any bugs if you logged into another server before)

Server name is "Nostalrius Begins" if you're customizing WTF folder. I found out by luckily getting the realm list while trying to login a few minutes ago.



Request: Please keep this thread clean. That means you, guy about to post the excited Dwarf gif!

I took a vacation day for monday. I fully expect to have very little uptime on the servers today. We would all do well to be pessimistic in that regard

My hope is if there IS issues, they will be fixed by monday, I can have my true marathon 36 hour gaming session then.

I hope everything goes smooth and i'm able to get ahead of the pack.

Nope, I got the same server list as in the OP a few minutes ago and when choosing the "Nostalrius Begins" server, I was DC'd instantly. Every attempted login now DC's as soon as I connect to the server, which is to be expected for another hour.

Gotta say I think that the launch time is a bit cocky: prime time on a saturday. From a developer standpoint I would have gone for early in the morning so that you have a full day to hotfix stuff.

Updated OP. You cannot login right now, or even get to the realm list at the time of this post.

Okay but i read somthing in the forum about name reservation...
