Did anybody read the "I know the game is down right now" part? :P
I don't think you're the only one, Lance... There were some others, but I haven't seen them in a few days. So you're still getting stuck at that "loading" page? Did you try clearing your cache (or flushing your DNS cache)? Are you on a mac?
I don't think he's expecting a fully functional game, as he never said he was. He just wants to get in... You won't understand unless you've also had problems getting in. Also, this is a continuation of where oVMK left off -- if I'm not mistaken? (And I don't believe I am. Amy didn't start from scratch, as she had the database from oVMK...)
I've had similar issues trying to get in. It is very frustrating, especially when staff members can't or don't help you. I've also noticed it loads a lot slower than oVMK did for me... It's really strange. @_@.
I did respond with that in mind.
I know he's not expecting a fully functional game but when VFK was released as a continuation from VMK I had registered at the very start and couldn't log in for a week or more. Games starting up in beta testing aren't going to be able to satisfy everyone, they have to work to fix problems so everyone can get on and also add more content to make it a finished product.
It is a continuation from oVMK yes as she had the main code and database but what I was stating is they couldn't pick up where they left off, they have less people working on the project, they had to wait for and configure new servers and also when it went up fix as many problems that people didn't see/ weren't there or apparent in oVMK as quick as possible.
If you want a quicker response one of the admins like Kevin or Grizzly with the info, they'll give you the advice they think should work, as it worked for others and try help you as best they can. A lot of people are having problems and maybe I was a tad harsh with my first post but I've just seen a lot of people expecting VMK as it was and complaining (Guilty, I was in that mindset a small bit) but what I mean is this is still testing, its not a fully released game and a lot of people don't seem to have that at the forefront of their mind.
Good luck getting on though. All I can say is reinstall shockwave, try different browsers, if able to a different operating system (mac/ windows), clear your cache and cookies. That's probably what the staff would say as far as I know mostly what they've said should work.
