Please restart the Servers until you can properly address the server congestion.
On August 27 and before that in Early Access, your company undoubtedly was hit with a brick consisting of traffic in masses that clogged servers for hours. Today on September 2 error 1017 is hitting every player who wants to experience the game, after paying $29.99 to get everything they wanted out of a relaunch of a game that was very anticipated since 2011 and this is what they get. First of all i would like to say not having a queue system for the servers was a huge failure. Now players who are logged into the game don't want to log out fearing they're not going to get back in for X number of days, which is understandable by the way. All I ask is that you understand as a gamer and as a new fan to the franchise that really wasn't of the worst launches I've seen form an MMO, but a little more communication to the FF audience would be nice besides "We're working on it." In conclusion, I do hope all these problems will be worked out eventually, and best of luck to the dev team and Moderators, and of course Yoshi-P himself.
