I just wanted to say that I agree with Tycho on this one. My opinion is that WOW is the best MMO ever made. The problem is that I don't get to play it nearly as much as I'd like. I think it's important to note that the only reason we're so upset here is because we want so desperately to play Blizzard's awesome game. It's the fact that these server outages and crazy bugs are keeping us from their masterpiece that makes us so frustrated. Even when I am able to log in it's often the case that the terrible lag makes their game equally unplayable.
I do not share the opinion of so many WOW forum goers that Blizzard is indifferent to our complaints. I honestly believe they want to fix their broken game and I think they are trying hard to do so. I just wish they'd give some real information about what's going on. I'm sick of reading the worthless puff pieces and interviews with questions like "How awesome is your game?" I don't want to read anymore about how Battle Grounds is going to revolutionize my ass. I want them to address the crippling technical issues with the game I am paying monthly for in an honest way, and tell me what they're doing to fix them.
