Just do the maintenance now.

People can't log in. People logged in can't do change areas without crashing, and then once you crashed, you can't log back in.

So, why not? I mean, I don't want to sound like I'm telling people what to do, but it's already like it's down.

People can log in actually. Just not on Aether. Rest of the servers work.

Yeah, it seems to be only affecting people on the Aether server as early as 5ish A.M. Lucky us.

Well I'm three days into my latest account subscription and, having subscribed late into the first day, am on my second full day of no game access and wasted subscription money. Thank you SE.

I clicked on "Server Status" just now and Aether's red, so... Don't know what else to say about it. lmao

They are doing maintenance for Aether now: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...-%28Jan.-18%29

It's not like they're just going to leave it for another 10 hours until the planned maintenance.

The planned maintenance for tomorrow will still happen as well as that's for the hot fixes mentioned.

I know, I posted this just before they brought it down. haha

Guess I'll go make another character somewhere else. lmao

I will never understand why people complain about wasting their money. How often does this happen in FF14? Do you think you could do a better job? Feel free to create a game, host the servers, and deal with all of the difficulties that come along with it. What did you lose, about a dollar or two? Relax, this happens in a lot of MMOs and I am pretty confident they will fix it.


Edit: Thought about my math... you haven't even lost a dollar yet ;)
