Anthem VIP demo launch was a disaster due to server side issues. BioWare and EA’s response was hilarious to say the least.
Anthem demo kicked off last night for VIPs who pre-ordered the game or had access to EA Access for Xbox One and EA Origin Access for PC. The VIPs could invite 3 of their peasant friends to the VIP lounge to play Anthem beta. However, the VIPs were embarrassed in front of their friends when Anthem couldn’t even boot let alone connect to EA servers.
Anthem VIP demo turned out to be a disaster for EA and BioWare who, after all of its resources, failed to judge how many players would flood the servers. The entire launch of BioWare’s demo turned out to be a failure and while servers are doing better at the time of this writing, still, not everyone is able to log in and play.
