i know its frustrating but i figure, rather they sort it out now instead of later. i can handle a few days of this since it is the launch of the new game and it was expected to be crazy. but its a good sign really, shows people still want to play this game and from the time i have had so far to play,i really like it.

i myself am a software engineer working with web applications so i am well versed in how things like this can play out, just simply adding servers or upgrading hardware is easier said than done and can take time and not exactly easy when the servers are in use.

so i say give them the time needed to sort things out, this was expected to happen, not like it was avoidable, new mmo launches are known to have their problems.

seriously, once a server is full wtf do you let more people onto it
no way im paying to not be able to play
pro tip: server is full, lock incoming traffic, expand capacity to accommodate population cap = no more queues/world full bullshit

[Bacher]

This is ridiculous. What kind of IT company cant fix a problem that thousands of people are getting and has an exact error message, and an error code. Pathetic.

These pages are filling faster than I can read them. Obviously something is not right with that. I got kicked out and now am getting the 1017 loop for the past couple hours. I got into a queue once with 44 in it, then got booted out with 1017 again. UGH!!!

I hate you so much Blizz... SE

In my opinion I think we should all send tickets, emails, and other messages through whatever way we can (noticeably) to tell Square-Enix to stop discriminating. I looked on the technical support forum in the Japanese forums and under the sections with multiple threads almost every single thread has a reply from a moderator (sometimes two even within only an hour of eachother). All other forums (English, French, and German) are severely neglected. This is obvious discrimination from this international company providing customers with differing qualities of service relating to their location or "affiliation." I cannot stand for this and I will be letting them know my thoughts.

Wow that sucks.. I got locked out of the game yesterday.. Today I was much smarter.. I logged in early in the morning and went afk all day til I got home and was able to play.. And now I plan on not logging out ever again...

And this is why we are all locked out... Tell me how this makes any sense
