Are the servers still down? Herald says they're supposed to be up but I'm not getting any listed. I was on earlier too so I should be hitting the right version.

Played for a few hours, got Aardvark to 9/9 mostly on scenarios and running PQs and quest in between. Order pretty much got stomped in open RvR, and rolled most scenarios. Destro players used many profanities, and didn't get the whole idea of 'kill their healers first' Plus, each time half the crew would just run all over, while order kept a mostly tight zerg. The players who ran off on their own seemed to be the ones screaming about how no one heals. Much amusement was had. And I saw the start of people camping the whole scenario, walking around in little circles just outside spawn until we won/lost. Too bad fishing isn't in.

I haven't had a single CTD this PW+ whereas during the PW I crashed about once or twice a play session. Mobs being unattackable is better than having them run away from me I suppose. Combat responsiveness is also much improved. Not perfect, but good enough to warrant my monies on release.
Also, Bright Wizards melt everything (through tier 1 anyway). I don't even have to try, I just tap 12345 and everything dies. With cool spell effects. Very fun stuff.
Time to see how an Engineer fits into the scheme of things. I got one up to level 5, seems fun. Apparently turrets were not working correctly before but I noticed no problems with them this PW+. I would just set one up, leave it at its default setting and it would reliably plink away at my target. Not sure if it requires more micromanagement for its full potential.

Bright Wizards are OP, and have been for ages.
I expect them to get nerfed into uselessness about 6 weeks post launch.

Anyone having problems with getting disco'd from the game? Not like a ctd but like keep lagging out. I can play any other mmo fine that I tried.

If it's when you're moving from one zone to another, it probably means that the 'new' zone has previously crashed and is down.

They've been this way about seven months. Why would they change anytime soon? I will be playing one at launch. The race will be between the inevitable nerf or me getting bored with the class/faction/game first

These are some pretty packed servers.
Edit: And by "packed" I mean "destruction is full on every single available server."

I wonder if this has something to do with the enforcing population balance with a queue thing that is supposed to be implemented.

Are people still doubting that Destruction is going to be the high pop side? :P

I'm having some doubts. Many will see that a well-run Order team can be VERY effective in the lower tier BG's. I'm guessing that the preview/open beta will help with balancing the servers at release. Granted, destruction does look better... and that's a big plus.
