Best served with cold steel.

It would have been nice if they had built a queue for solo instance. I wouldn't mind hanging around for 30+ minutes if I knew I'd have my chance to do it at the end. Instead everyone is spamming the NPC desperately, and the bottleneck is only getting worse.

They also have a NM and a FATE spawn right on top of the NPC which also isn't helping.

* Currently, players progressing through the main story quest of FINAL FANTASY XIV: Stormblood are unable to enter instances battles due to it reaching its limit of players allowed. Due to this, players are asked to wait until a player leaves an instanced area before they are able to enter.
While we have plenty of instances available, to prevent a heavy load on the servers, we are currently limiting the number of players that can enter at a time. If you are unable to enter an instance, we recommend waiting and trying again at a later time.

I wish they would have just set up a q like previous posters had said.

Been talking to the MSQ NPC for 2 hours, time to give up and go nap. Don't think it'll be better when I get up but what else can ya' do? It seems SE isn't going to fix the problem.

Same. If they are going to throttle the instances that's cool, but there is no order for people who have been here for hours. It's free for all spam/luck to get through.

So is Square Enix going to compensate players for this given that it's only going to get worse? Or just auto complete the quest for all players? Something has to be done about this, or most of the players won't ever be able to complete the MSQ.

So how are we supposed to know when a player leaves an instance? Seems to me it would be better if they just queued us up like DF.

That's the same thought I had. Lol... SE....

Ugh

Why didn't they at least put in a queue for it. Now you've gotta get extremely lucky, or wait for hours.

Will get worse on the 20th
