    And once the clock strikes you will have to download updates and reinstall and the servers will crash and you won’t be able to play at the scheduled time anyway.

    Happened once in the 11 years i've been playing. All others smoother than a sheet of glass. Oh and the year it happened i think they even compensated every1 that it incovenienced.

    It’s happened every year I’ve played since 16. One year wanted a token to start DD lmao, one year you couldn’t load your depth chart and enter any part of DD. Hopefully this year is smooth but I don’t even except to play midnight on Friday. By the weekend it should by normal

    That’s not true. There have been many launch night issues over the years.

    I usually just start playing RTTS when I can't get into DD. At least it will kinda be worth it this year.

    Now your telling me what my personal experience has been? Cmon man. Just cuz it happened to you doesn't mean it happened to everyone. I don't lie I have no reason to.

    They have given multiple buy offs with packs for multiple years. No idea how you could connect when the servers were down entirely for SDS.

    It depends on mode you are playing. If it was down last year i started in MTO it's technically offline mode. Until you claim rewards then you don't have to be online.

    Franchise if servers are down doesn't faze franchise gameplay and same goes for RTTS. So yes it is possible for some to be effected and not others.

    Hope we can preload as well. I know you could do that with some other gamepass games.
    Hoping I'll be able to do the same with 21 as well.

    If you pre order it will pre load, if you get it through gamepass you will get it the 20th Official launch date. 🙂

    That's why you just sleep through all that. It's why they go live at midnight so the load will be lighter.
    I plan on going to bed early Thursday night and then getting started around 7am or so on Friday morning.

    That really doesn't change the fact that the servers are down on numerous years. Having a work around doesn't fix the bad servers on day 1

    I wasn't providing a work around. Someone said my statement was false when it wasn't and i just merely stated if you are in a different mode like the offline ones i mentioned you do not get effected. Not everybody plays Diamond Dynasty at launch.

    You can play those other modes and never know about server issue is all i said. I didn't say it didn't happen i said "In my 11 years I only experienced it 1 time other times smooth as glass."

    That states that you haven't seen it happen or that it doesn't happen in the last 11 years. It does and it has and hopefully it doesn't this year
