    A few of my guildmates play SC as well and they try to get other people to play, but every time an open period happens, the servers always shit the bed with instability and the play experience for the new player is awful.

    It’s so funny trying to hear them rationalize bad servers and inability to do basic things as just part of the experience.

      to be fair, its issue is that they literally have a whole flood of people trying the game, like 70%+ is people just trying the game then

        It’s not like these free play periods are a surprise to them. They are in complete control of how hard their servers get pounded and when.

          sure, but AWS only has so many servers ready to spin up at any one time
