Origin allready down?

[FireFox]

I totally agree with you guys. EA does something good, and everybody hates on them because their servers couldn't handle the ridiculous amount of activations and downloads it was getting. I don't see people hating on Linus or Slick when the forum goes down... Give em' a break

 

Agreed

Lol at all you noobs who thought Origin would be working. You didnt seriously expect an already unstable service to work under a massive load did you?

Edit:

For those talking about hating EA. Its still EA. Just because they do one good deed does not mean they are forgiven for years of crap deeds. YEARS!!! I tell you!!

When I finally got in it took 8 hours to download BF3 on 10Mbit down thanks to origin lagging out all the time.

for once large numbers of people are actually using the service, its no wonder the servers can't handle the shock  :D

[iWearKiltz]

everything goes through a period where its too busy for the system to handle. obviously EA has had its first impulse lol. 

 

a good example was LTT, before the server update LTT was clogged at like 200 people during a livestream. so origin did good at holding the amount they did :p

 

why am i defending ea?

 

i need help, message me protips to not be a ea guy

You do indeed get keys that can be given away.

 Asking why water is a liquid, can sometimes be a very complicated question.  You have to take into account the current temperature of the water, the atmospheric pressure of the surroundings of the water and several other variables.   It can also be a solid or a gas. 

 

Is the water in a vacuum?  Why would water be a liquid in vacuum?

 

 

People just go crazy when EA does something, even if it's not there fault.  Like there servers crashing because people are trying to download over a million games at once.
