Moment of truth

A couple of days ago I made this thread:

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...and-Error-1017

Then SE announced their big maintenance that had happen last night.

I didn't try to login before work since I expected that everyone will be trying to get in, so I waited until lunch time.

So the moment of truth, I went home for lunch, fired my computer up, wait for the update, then BAM!

I was in -- just like that.

Just to be fair, you guys at SE did a very good job! :o

The real test will be later on when schools out and ppl are off work.

Prior to this, I can't get in even during lunch time, so this is a big plus. I'll follow-up again later on and give feedback on my login experience.

Sadly, while I do manage to log on much more easily now, I've been getting bombarded by error 90000 telling me that the server connection was lost. Whenever I perform an action, be it mining or crafting, the game will freeze up for a few seconds every 3 actions or so. Half of the those freezes lead to me being disconnected. Sometimes I'll just be running around and still get this 90000 error for no reason. I wasn't getting this prior to the sept. 4 maintenance.

Yeah, I heard a lot of people complaining about that last night in-game too. First they said that they will get a lag spike, then get DC'ed. Fortunately for me, I never had that experience and I even re-log with each of my characters with no problem.

I hope that they'll fix this, because I know how frustrating it is not to be able to enjoy the game.
