Cannot Connect to game, Error (30002) 1337275452,6470148,5

I remember exploring the new camps and activating a few Achievement NPCs just before they started charging. It was right around my winter break.

Problem is, while I would like to try some of your methods, a lot of my friends aren't playing, or I can't find them due to friend lists being unique to a character.

I'm gonna hold out and see what SE can do. I'm in the city of Bowling Green, and I'm not that far from Insight's office here. It would be nice if they had a feature to home point you or send you back to your starting city in an emergency...

If you can tell me how to do the proxy thing and walk me through it, I'll try it.

do you have a new LS on your alt? or did you nto bother playing at all really because your main was MIA?

if you can't find anyone you can shout maybe. have you logged into an alt and submitted GM ticket? they may have a creative way of accessing your main from an alt if they can trace back and see it tied to a parent account.

They probably can HP you. but you have to be logged in to call the GM. . .

As for the proxy, I've seen other people on the forums suggest hotspot shield. They were having a different error, but if it's truly a location issue this will help pinpoint that. it may reduce the number of 'hops' you need to do before connecting to the server, which may be enough to get your character logged in.

I've been solo leveling my alt. The one person I had on my friend list and I can remember her name is almost always afk when I contact her, so getting into that shell has been a chore, and then my other shell, my friend who's in Canada hasn't been playing, so I can't get that one to help.

The thing is, The login music never changes. It feels like the signal to load him onto the server stalls out. Normally, you select the character, and then the now loading icon appears on a black screen while the crystal prelude plays for about 5-7 more seconds, then the music changes to the area you're loading into until the screen unblackens. In our case, you select, and then the crystal prelude plays for about 30-45 seconds until the error pops up, and then the music stops with it. I know in XI characters would pop in and then you would have the error about your character already being logged in. I never get anything like that in this case.

I've also tried asking GMs, but they won't do anything unless my main is logged in. They just send an automated message saying they can't do anything.

I'll try the proxy method in the next few days and see what pops up.

There is no specifc error for your character is already logged in. when this happens you get the 30002 error again.

It's a 'ping' type error as far as i can tell. it just signals a time out, it doesn't specify what kind of time out. the string afterwards might, but only a dev can aswer that and they haven't been helpful. that doesn't necessarily mean they don't' want to. it could be they just dont' have access to every possible error code.

what i'm seeing happening (through you) is that you're trying to load in. your computer is telling the FFXIV server 'I am here!' and the FFXIV server is either 1) not getting the message, and you're timing out because you're not getting a signal back from the sever or 2) it's trying to send the signal back to you, but your'e not getting the signal back. so the server is saying 'I see you!' but ther's no signal saying 'Yay! we agree!'

yay for talking goign on here >.> no mater what ppl say i feel this is SE end and they need to fix it or tell us how to, a lil faster then they beeen. /bump

If it is something on SE's end it's more an inefficiency in routing. I seriously doubt it's corruption. And i have big doubts he' sin an area he can't exist.

I know a few poeople after match have been experiencing gateway changes after pings. This is causign them to DC. the issues could be related. there are a couple ways to fix this issue. but really we're tkaing crap shoots in the dark and hoping something sticks.

btw, didn't you play on Siren in FFXI? your name looks familiar.

This weekend I attempted to connect with a friends 4G phone, same error but as usual could connect with the an alt. I also used a few of those proxy software, battleping, WTFast and a few others, still unable to connect.

I'm a Leviathaner myself.

I doubt it's character corruption but it has to be something on SE's end. Not a huge amount of people are having this precise error. Rare cases are bound to happen. And rerouting methods don't work for us. I just sincerely think it's an issue from the server merge. At this point, the most parsimonious answer is that there's a problem on the SE side finding the character data on the server. The character is "there" but the data is located elsewhere.

The fact I can't log in from 3 locations or through proxies makes it far too complicated that it would be a routing issue.

The best thing would be a simple investigation by SE to actually figure out what's going on. In the mean time... I await the promised server reset :)

And I hope it works out for you!
