An hour of error 1017

Well this is a shame that i paid money for this product with no help from SE. I wanted to play this game with my friends but one one of us seem to get on at a time. I am going to file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau. You have know about this issue since phase 4 and have not found a fix, even with all the ideas your customers have given you. How long must a paying customer wait to receive a finished product? Wait didn't we wait years with promises that this was going to to better. You got me SE you hyped it up got popular youtube personalities to back your product so now they look bad.

Hey you are on my server. We can group up and play 1017 together

I've hit 1017 errors all day now since 8am. It's now 9:40pm and I still can't get in. Part of me is annoyed at SE and another part annoyed at those in game who won't log out :/

I will if I could ever get in game.

OK, so we will do a 24 man 1017.

Don't bother I've battled 1017 for hours, killed him many times.. day after day... and still no loot... the best I saw was a white sword... guess that's something.

The man with the "Sword of a Thousand Truths"

It is of no use, whenever I do get in I get kicked out again after a few hours anyway.
And then the 2002's and 1017's start all over again. It's ridiculous!!!

I posted this earlier, here is what a longer battle with 1017 looks like:

I wanted to pass along some statistics.

Started at 3:45pm, current time 4:45am
13 hours of attempted logged ins.
8,801 attempted log ins
7 times places in que
7 times in que given 1017 error after being in que


I don't blame people for staying logged on because it is a decision they have made and honestly I can't say I wouldn't have done the same. My issue is with Square Enix for allowing it to happen and forcing people to do this to stay in game. You have taken a potentially wonderful experience for many people and destroyed it. What is sad IMO is the reaction given by customer support. They don't seem to care or show any sympathy. I know their job isn't fun now, but your reaction goes along way and is what we see.

To be fair, perhaps shutdown the game and put in a system that eliminates the AFK players. Some people have been logged in for almost a week. They go to work for 10 hours, sleep for 8 hours and play for 6 hours. 18 of 24 hours are AFK. How can you allow this to happen????????

too many players, they over sold the game, also by allowing the CE players from version 1 to come back for free for a month was a big mistake as well. Too many ppl want to play it and not enough servers or server capacity to deal with it. There isn't even a que for any server. Some of us cant get on the JP servers it's so bad. I was gonna subscribe to maybe fix the 1017 problem but I decided to let a sleeping dog lie. Games not worth, no matter have good it seems to play. I got a ton up to 41, want to go farther but 3 days of 1017s straight, time to forget about it.

I can't believe this!!!! I just got in (after trying for several hours) and got kicked after 10 freaking minutes!!!
90000 server error and a immediate 2002 error followed. It would be hilarious if it wasn't so very sad!

I have battle this Monstrous Monster 1017, including all his minions of 90000 and 2002, for the last three days, and still no luck :P.....Guess I need a legendary sword after all :P

what's fucked up is starting this morning I was instantly getting the 1017 right after clicking START, I didn't even get to the character screen lol.

That's is unbelieveable. SE!!!!! Do something about this mess!!!

error 1017 this early in the morning?
Honestly, this is the worst Technical support i ever saw. If this game had SINGLE PLAYER MOD to advance in history quest cuz u cant login or cuz u wanna solo would be a thing, but been stuck cuz of sever issues? thats lame.

GO ask for assistance at battle.net. Their tech support answers forum posts in 1 minute.

i was thinking that NCsoft had a crappy assistance but to think that SE can be worse... and our "SRY/ thank you gifit of plus 7 days trial", only one word would fit: LAME.

This man has won the battle! ;)

when there are issues involving so many players they have not only all those VIP players posting and moderating discussions and blue posts every couple hours explaining exackly what kind of errors and problem peopel are experiencing and how to solve them - dont badmouth blizzard cause its approach towards players is much better then any other game i have played - and those whosay that vanilla wow had so bad start - it was friking 10 years ago when public internet was still in toddler era and mmorpg were in daipers - we are 10 years later with load of experiences this shit has no right to happen for any game that want to be any kind of succesfull

I wanted to say something relevant but I was laughing too hard. My screaming laughter hides the pain of my reality.

NOPE sry guys SE taking a well deserved break today for labor day.....WTF? Game just got released you notice ALL these fucking problems and complaints and you decide to not only take a day off, but have the balls to announce on the site that their taking the day off???

and we paid for that xD

even the japanese servers re "full". Full my ass, its over midnight over there. They probably set all servers to work with population below 40% or so to avoid major errors...trully crappy support.
And there we re, saying "holy" names during our holiday, thinking about SE xD
