Just want to report that I also got this same error today after updating from the previous version.
I'm guessing the update didn't set the client version number to whatever the server requires it to be, or a similar issue on the server end.
Has anyone been able to log onto the server at all since the update?

nope been trying to log in mostly all day and still have same error message

I just had the same issue as stated just downloaded the update and get error code FXI-3331.The games data has been updated.
