Ixion frustration

https://puu.sh/wSc7k/83c8d94174.jpg

4 minutes trying teleport to the map and nothing, Ixion died and i didnt get anyting.

The Instances are for what? why not spawn the IXON at same time in all 3 instances? so everoyne can get the horn.

Is too frustating a mmo that only can fill a map with 3xx people, until when we will suffer with SE server issues?

its se's fault that 350 ppl were faster than you?

Even with the maximum capacity the instance can take, people start lagging out and there are dc icons everywhere. Good times.

While I understand your frustration, it's kind of your own fault for not getting in the correct instance. You are never going to get randomly placed in the instance with a huge influx of players as the system tries to balance the instances evenly. You need to use the zone line to zone out, then back in and choose the correct instance. The system is poorly designed and not user-friendly at all, but would you expect anything less from the XIV development team?

Teleport to the portia aetheryte, the one that's not ala mhigo in the lochs. Exit via the peaks using your fast flying mount. Reenter the lochs with the correct instance. Process takes 20 seconds.

That was I did guys, but the server just is non-stop saying that the map(the Locks) is full and I cant join it (the image is only showing that Im back to the Peaks)

Ironically, once when Ixion spawned I tried zoning in manually but was unable to. Meanwhile my husband teleported and was dropped in Ixion's already 300+ instance. I kept trying from my end to walk into the instance but could never get through, but noticed the instance kept letting more and more people in somehow.

There really is no rhyme or reason to it. To be fair, everyone was apparently lagging out and it was so terrible that my husband's mount refused to actually fly in the zone.

I've personally given up on trying to get the mount at this point. I'll wait the 6-12 months it will take for this to die down in order to get it, because even when I've been in the zone with Ixion spawning and in a group that's been there since 100% I've still gotten bronze and 0 horns since the lag makes performing actions nearly impossible and then they don't count towards contribution. Not worth the time nor frustration.

uhh yeah it IS Square's fault that their MMO can't handle a few hundred people in one zone

let's face it, it's not like they've got their server issues resolved, they got wrecked by Raubahn's wall at launch. i feel like they modeled ARR around PS3 limitations and now that they are trying to expand it's a steep learning curve

i would have thought that Odin taught them some lessons but no

I got in the zone before the pull with a full party, but got DC before ixion die and got nothing.

There was a time, People compared about Odin FATE aswell. Nowdays you can't even do Odin anymore because there are not enough People who care for his spawn.

With time comes solution.
