It would be nice if they gave notice(which they have a couple times), but I remember when CO had problems we got a notice in plain english, rather personal like,..... hey guys, this is what happened, we didn't expect the large turnout in beta, and are working on bringing new servers online as soon as possible, we regret that this will take aprox. 2 hours, we appreciate your ..........yada yada yada....
CRYPTIC, make it so !

It is a bad thing, when they should have done most of this in closed beta, or more likly open beta. If they are taking the servers down 2 times a day, it was done a lot in open beta ( I understand that) but when this kind of stuff happends it means there is somthing VERY wrong.
If there is a problem yes they should take the servers down and try to fix it that is common sense, however they should have already got most of the issues nailed down in closed or open.
This is soft launch early access there is around the same amount of people playing that was open beta testing. There is just 2 days to hard launch and people are going to be knocking at the door again.
There is always problems with a game at launch, Ive been a part of many of them but this is the first one I have spent more time waiting for the server to come back up then playing the game.
So far its a fun game I injoy it well when playing it, but I still feel like I am in open beta ;p. This game come out to early, big sign in that is when a game stays down everyday for about half the day.
Just wait it will happen again monday and tusday and the rest of this week,possibly longer. While I myself will not doom a game just because it has a few problems at launch, many many many wiill., and they will go back to wow or whever. I just hate to see that, its why warhammer failed.
