Just shut down the servers, change the battles into fates, start up again and let people actually do the content.

You should be a little more humble. Stormblood is going to be one of the best expansion releases for a mmorpg in a really long time and this is coming from someone who opted out of Heavensward for it being a bad expansion. What is a day or two wait going to do to you? Nothing at all and that wait will soon be replaced by countless hours of playing an awesome expansion to a mmorpg.

I watched them multiple times run up to the ent and Unmend on it to drag it over to us. I'm pretty sure they were intending to kill us.

Well... Since you ask... I have only a few days more that I'll be able to play because I'm going to be away for 3 weeks during which I won't be able to play at all.
I'd like to do as much as I can in that time.
It's not the first time SE screws up like this with FFXIV. And every time they lose players permanently.

I was willing to be patient since it was day 1, but there's no significant change after more than 24 hours? The messages from Yoshi-P don't really help.

That's strange, this morning (so 8 hours go or so) I heard from multiple people on my server that it seemed to be fixed? It took me an hour and 40 minutes to get into Raubahn's, but all solo instances after that were fine except for one I DC'd out of.

I have been trying from 11pm to 3am my time. I have a few hundred more "A system error occurred during event movement" messages to add to my tally.

It might have to do with datacenter, however.

I think only naive and inexperienced MMO players expect a new expansion launch to go off without a hitch on day 1. However, we can't tell how "awesome" or "amazing" this expac is supposed to be because of poor design decisions on multiple levels.

I feel bad for the engineers who probably saw this coming, said something about it, and were shut down by management. I have no sympathy for people who write off preventing major issues like this and place the burden of dealing with the fall-out on the same people who wanted to prevent it in the first place.

At this point either give us an auto-clear of the instance (it's not a major part of the story- it's taking out some stupid mechs) or tell us what you're working on. Having so many people unable to move on over 24 hours after launch is unacceptable.

It's a good thing Shirogane housing plots aren't available as this bottleneck seems to be getting worse with more ppl logging in for the weekend. Otherwise, the complaints would likely be ten fold.

I'll say it again it's erly acsess it's basicly a glorified stress test and guess what these things happen it happens in all mmos it hapens in wow guild wars you name it it happens new content like expansions are always like this for the first week or so get over it and let the devs fix the problom

Well I'm stuck in pipin NOW.
