Start Button isn't clickable - Error 2002/5006 Lobby error - game closes

Unable to log in this morning at the moment because my start button won't even allow me to press it.

I get either a 2002 or a 5006 "Lobby server connection has encountered an error".

It will mean something next week when the data centers get upgraded.

SE needs to get a MUCH better lobby server. It is bad when a world is full, but at least we can pick another world to play on. But issue is we cannot even get to the character selection screen.

If they are having this kind of issue with 300-350K connections, and we are only at launch, how will they ever be able to increases in the sub base to millions?

I was just getting this 2002 error and unable to click start.

After restarting my computer, I can click the start button but I then keep getting a 1017 error while trying to load the character selection menu. How can the world be full when I haven't even tried to log into it yet? -_-

Yo Starlord! Is it really next week? I've been looking everywhere for the date of the update, but I've had no luck. I really hope it is, though!

I had 2002, couldn't close the game either. After about 20 mins of 2002 and trying to close the game I just killed it from the task manager and restarted it. Now I can see chars on NA/EU but get 1017 when trying to access them, and on the JP chars it won't even populate the list. Going to take a break then try logging in again later.

I Didn't have too much of an issue when we could choose another server in a different region, but this is like the third time this week. I get 90000 and booted from the game followed by 3102 then 1017 then 10102, 2002, and now 5006 all before I can even get to the lobby. I understand getting 1017 when trying to access a server but the lobby? Getting very annoyed now and before someone tells me I shouldn't feel entitled to complain because it's free SE just withdrew $80 from my account for subscription fees so I have every right at this point as a paying subscriber to get agitated.

*Bloodmoon was defeated by the error code*

NA no longer stands for North America. The acronym is now more readily associated with Not Available.

The development and operations teams are currently concentrating 100% of their efforts into the aforementioned tasks and are on pace to have both completed by the beginning of next week and then released to the public once our final tests have concluded.

No specific date, but they said "Next week".

No specific time set yet, and no notification under Maintenance tab at the Lodestone, though. I'd think we'll get final details by tomorrow or so.

PS- Starlord, what did you do to Starlord? o.o

LOL, The time/date post wasn't there when I posted to his question, so of course naturally the only thing I could go by was when was mentioned " Early Next week" :P.

Yeah, we should know what "early" means to SE now, like Alpha/Beta phases will start "early ...xxMonthxx..." - (the 12th?) lol
