This was a good time. I haven't had as much fun at the launch of a game since COH. The entertaining conversations on TS was a blast. So many people! The whole build up from 2 to 3 AM was great. Everyone was so excited, you could feel it! Being on with fellow Grievance members while reading Carbine and individual dev tweets was just really cool. Having to bump up the member allowance of TS due to this one game, also really cool.

Then 3 hit and the epic Chupacabra boss wiped all the Exile and Dominion raiders of Nexus alike. The jokes surrounding all of that were great. It's the Dominion's fault, no it's Nionya's fault ('cause she left to get more coffee), no it's the "hamster" running in the wheel...wait it has 6 legs...wait, that's no hamster! Then the twitter jokes by Carbine as well as other gaming sites. The community trying to make light of a frustrating situation was fantastic. Of course "the Gaffer" himself stepped up and put down the Chupacabra DDOS boss and all was well.

People got to business and formed groups and began their quest to dig into Nexus. I, on the other hand, crash-landed into the Northern Wilds, and that's where I had to call it a "night" at 5 AM Eastern. Just the comfort that I exist in the world and there's no worry of going anywhere, that's nice. No more beta times, just enjoy the game. Yay! Thank you all for making the launch a great experience, especially the officers who made sure things went well for Grievance. Hope everyone is having a blast and I can't wait to get in there with you!

For the small amount of time I was there for, it was incredibly entertaining even though we weren't actually playing. I was in the middle of building my new PC so I didn't stick around for too long though. (And I still am! Hit a few snags unfortunately.) After that I was so tired I started falling asleep, but I managed to create my character before passing out. Wish I could've been there to actually start playing, but it was still a great night! Can't wait to really get started!

Oh I forgot to add. I noticed how smooth the game was running and how nice it looked. Better than the best of beta. I was impressed with that, I really expected it to be a choppy, laggy, ugly mess, but it wasn't. My day today has been VERY busy (X-men then casino night with the family) so I haven't even been able to play again. I'm SO glad the game is live and don't feel the pressure to play before the beta time ends. 8-)

I noticed that as well. I've been using my friend's laptop since the beta weekends, and it was running much better than it was during beta. I remember it used to be a slideshow at times, especially in the arkship tutorial! I barely played so far but from what I saw, it seems like Carbine really outdid themselves with the optimization. Also how was X-Men? I actually work at a movie theater, but funnily enough I haven't seen it yet! (I did manage to see Godzilla though. That was awesome!)
