Just mentioning, I'm on the befallen server. They've opened up about 8 more servers since launch (2 the first day, 6 the second I think)
This is by far the cleanest MMORPG launch I've ever seen. My server crashed once since I started playing and was back up almost immediately. Compare that to most MMORPG's not even being playable for a couple days with TONS of rollbacks, bugs, and glitches.
Looks like Sony is doing a REALLY GREAT job with OUT OF GAME support as well. They're charging of course, but for $1 a month extra you can get your own guild website/message board/photo hosting/personal page, etc... etc... You pick the options, and it's like $.99 for each option.
Yeah, it's a bit of a ripoff, but if you don't own webspace and are only using it for EQ2, $1-$4 a month extra ain't bad.
