jeezz everyone needs to relax. get outside or play another game. lets be honest ofcourse there are going to be overloaded servers in the first 2 or 3 days. its simply not feasible to have enough resources just for those few days because traffic will never be that high again. if i was in management i would probably make the same desicion. just be patient. and all of steam has always connected aswell its to stop people stealing there game. some thing every human doesnt like.

if I wanted to wait to play a game, I would have waited for it to have gone on sale, and then gotten it. I really don't mind always online dmr since I am playing this game almost exclusively with friends, but if you have it, you better make damn sure that you will be able to handle the load of all your paying customers. Its absolutely ridiculous that the servers have been down multiple times on just day 1, and that while they're down, the game is completely useless. Surely blizzard must have been informed that the game was shattering PC preorder records. And yes the load will be highest at launch. Thats why they could have gotten enough servers to deal with the inital traffic, and then toned it down as the active userbase shrunk. I'm sure it would have been less expensive, then the loss in potential sales, due to this game getting horrible word of mouth and user reviews.

Luckily I was thinking about taking a break shortly prior to the servers crashing, again... But if this mess continues tomorrow, I'm going to attempt to return the game, because it actually is unplayable, not super glitchy "unplayable", but actually unable to be played.
