I just read that this has been going on for over 3 hours for some people. That is completely unacceptable. IF they knew that their servers could not handle the demand, then why the heck did they advertise it so extensively thereby ensuring that there would be thousands of players? IF they knew that their game was too buggy to go live then why do so? OH I KNOW, because they knew those same new players who didn't know better would spend actual money.

All they had to do was not make having friends vital to the success of this update, that is what is causing all the crashing. Everybody was forced to max out at 100 friends in order to complete the tasks. Idiots, great planning there.

It's been over 3 hours for me. I just hope they resolve it and this problem doesn't come back multiple times in the next few weeks.
