Looks like the game servers are back up but that fancy new real money auction house seems to be having issues.
Honestly I'm glad, I like Blizzard but they deserve punishment for the online-only single player nonsense.
What did they think would happen I wonder when all those copies sold before release?
The great irony is people who pirate are probably playing right now.
Being one whom was off to play this game opening day... what a sham. Blizz should be so ashamed, being that they new pre-sales #s, and that they know how to handle millions of internet subscribers... and yet didn't give an offline mode should the product launch fail...
But they were up all day yesterday :P
Yep, I have no doubt in my mind that they had to bring to bear several additional servers to handle the load.
As someone pointed out yesterday what's more important than the client having working internet is BLIZZARD having working internet...
