again, servers issues are fine, the issue is the bad design that caused them.

I got lucky and done this quest in the morning. Just passed susanoo boss.

Yes, MMO launches are notoriously buggy. There are often disconnects and errors for a few hours.

It's nearing 19 hours of having ONE major issue. They've provided no fixes, no useful advice. I know e3 just happened, I know it's going into the weekend. But they scheduled this, and if there aren't multiple programmers with their asses in the fire right now then SE is failing miserably at being professional.

I can't even get to Cold Steel. I got DC'd on the first MSQ instance ("Fly Free My Pretty", or something to that effect) and have spent the last hour trying to simply log back in. 90002 message every time.

Oh well...about what I expected.

It's time SE admits their mistake, remove the instance fight (Yea it sucks to do this) and let player keep moving forward.

It's not even terribly important. You kill some garleans. You've, uh, done that before. Lots. Yeah it would suck to lose that instance, but if they did then people could progress.... until the next bottleneck.

I've been trying to get this stupid MSQ done for almost 19 hours, now. Meh. Tech issues happen. Terrible design flaw to require an instance MSQ quest this early on. But the silent treatment sucks most. They failed to admit that this is a problem and went out of their way to say, not just once but 3 times now, that things are working as intended. And since less than 1% of players have been able to clear this bottleneck, I must conclude that their intention is that this quest is not doable.

I've read Yoshi P's statement, and it reads to me: "We're doing nothing, and your patience will solve this so we don't have to in a week when nobody needs to do this quest any more. In the mean time, please spam click on the one-armed slot machine to see if you win the jackpot of being able to get into the instance long enough to get disconnected half way through your MSQ and have to try again."

A bit of PR would go a long way, even if the tech isn't able to resolve this, Square.

this is really annoying. i really hope they fix this by tomorrow, because if they dont, they should be giving us our money back. This is not early access!!!

They should do what WoW does for their scenarios and have a queue for solo instances.

This is honestly the easiest thing to do.

They have The Smith, proving they have the setup for solo instance queues. Shoving the tech together would be liable to make issues of its own, but after NINETEEN HOURS I THINK THEY COULD HAVE GOTTEN IT DONE.
