Lag, DC, and error 5006

Whilst we were in the middle of doing a thief map on Phoenix my whole team experienced severe lag issues and started to DC one by one, then I was hit by the DC. We were struggling for the past 10 mins to log in again but looks like the server is letting us back in.

Edit: Nope, no sooner we were in than we were thrown right back out again this time with error 2002 and error 5006.

This is happening across Chaos Data Center. Got hit by it on Zodiark, character Lissa D'ylisstol, in the Lavender Beds Ward 18 plot 5 at the housing vendor. Error 90001 and then server lobby errors 5006 and 2002 after trying to relog.

Same here from Louisoix, I was on PF for Omega 10 savage and my friend and I got kicked of our game. Since then, we can't re enter.

same here on Lich, so looks like Chaos is dead. Again.

or did maintenance start already?
getting 2002 error as well

edit;
for some reason it logged in..

we JUST killed suzaku and then half the party was lost lol... FC mates told the same from savage partys etc... ppl crafting next to me DC'ed too... but i had the feeling during the fight, smt was already fishy....

Phoenix here ,was just gathering some shards ,when sudennly get hit by lag ,disconnect and then cannot get back ingame.

Add me and a bunch of others

right now 22:17, we were fine but ppl vanish again.

Disconnected again on Phoenix.

I tried to log in around 21:30 (GMT+2) and couldn't. I came to post here and I could enter so I didn't post anything.
After sending my retainers I teleported to my private house and without finishing the teleport I was kicked from the server. Tried to log back and error 2002 appeared. 22:20 (GMT+2) right now.

I'm from Zodiark btw.

Same here on Lich. It's bloody embarrassing on their part. Why does the EU only get one server as well? The EU has tonnes of players, and if NA can have two, then so should EU players! It would definitely lower congestion issues, and it's always Chaos having fits, and no other server. What exactly are we paying them for????

Same in ragnarok... If you complain at Disneyland about queue line time they give u free ticket to come back in the park another day. When you have issues with SE,they just take your money,never answer or sell your pre-co to other ppl without any compensation 😤

Diabolos here, got severe lag, game froze and I had to restart my PC. Tried logging back in again and was d/ced not 2 minutes later.

Edit: Nearly 15 min later and I still can't stay connected to the server.

I thought it was my browser playing up (I'm monitoring Ffxiv Server Status, http://is.xivup.com/ ), I popped on to an alt on Zalera (cos chaos was down) and got booted from there as well (Primal/Aether keeps going down and up, tis weird).

I'm on leviathen server, same here in eureka no less whole pt dead

Game keeps losing connection to the data center for me. I'm on Ultros.

Gilgamesh, disconnected twice in the last 10 mins or so. Of course this crap has to happen on a day I get home early and have extra time to play...FFS.

I'm on Malboro and I just had a ton of DC issues for the 10minutes I was on. I was in Rhalgr's and a bunch of people in shout chat were saying people just kept disappearing and disconnecting. I just logged off because it was irritating

Same here on Jenova. I'm just glad it waited to act until until AFTER I'd finished the 58 pally quest.

it's happening on mateus now too

Leviathan having issues as well

Couerl is out, maitenance came early

Getting widespread lag and DCs on Coeurl.

Gilgamesh down

Logged in on Ultros. Got 90K'ed a few minutes later. Now I cannot even get connected to the lobby server.

Someone spilled coffee on the server panel, which fried the controls to the locks that keep the server hamsters contained. They got loose and the tech people are probably trying to locate them all as we speak.

Add Diabolos to the list. Did we feed the server hamsters today? @_@

So getting fixed or what?

Seems like the whole NA Data Center fell over

Today must be chimp day

Siren Down! Game over man, Game over!
