The server is full, try again later (1017)

They really do need to add server pop status bars, too. Just to give an inkling of which servers might not be AS packed at any given moment.

Yes. Very frustrating and annoying. Been trying to get in for about a hour. Same message 1017.
Felt as though I got burnt when I bought the first edition back in 2010.
Love the FF series of games so tried the latest iteration. Had problems initially but persevered. Got in. Made some progress but cannot now get onto the server.
Subscription hmm. I wonder how much patience they think we have.
It will have to be far more robust before I commit.

Don't worry, I'm sure we'll get plenty of extra free months if things don't get better... >.>

Like, I know they're working to fix the issue, but I'd really like to play the game I freaking bought with my own money.

Has anyone from SE stated why they don't have proper queues and afk-logs? It seems like the consensus is that people can patiently wait, when they have an idea of how long they'll be waiting.

I haven't seen anything, though I have seen the queue once. idk what happened to it. Maybe it only goes active when... someone hits the red button?

■ゲーム内離席（AFK）キャラクタへの対応■
Addressing AFK characters

一部お客様よりワールド内にログインしたものの、ゲームをプレイせずに離席しているキャラクタを
自動的にログアウトしていただく機能のリクエストを頂いております。
こちらは実装の検討は行っているものの、現在は上記ワールド追加と負荷分散対策に全コスト集中し、
根本的な対応を優先させていただいている状況です。こちらもあわせてご了承ください。
We have been receiving requests to add a feature to automatically log out characters that login to the game but going AFK without playing.
We are looking into implementation, but please understand that we are currently concentrating and prioritizing to resolve the stress and increasing above mentioned worlds.

FFS....now im getting the 1017 error all over again.....atleast put me in the fucking queue!

just a thought but seeing as how it'll try to log you in when the world is full before putting you into que (im just assuming thats whats happening because half the time i get the loading screen before the error) would that mean that their log in system is trying to put your char into the world first before checking the que? if that is so wouldnt it be more productive to change it so that the log in will put you into que and only the person at the start of the que at the time can log in i know that would probably take some time when a lot of people are trying to log in at the same time but wouldnt that fix some of the problems people are having with the game, and i do hope they fix it before they start asking people to pay for the subscription.

I am so sick of this game already
