Unable to update the group NA/EU Character List but no maintenance is on

[TheGhost]

I just logged in on the ps3 version.. After trying all day. When only the NA/Eu servers were loaded. I finally got in a queue... Maybe it was luck..

Still says couldn't retrieve NA/EU servers list for me. I logged on briefly about 3 hours ago, and now can't get back on after my getting dc'd...

I'm just getting fed up with it. I work all week and want to play this at the weekends and since last night the game thinks Europe does not exist.

Oh well D3 PS3 comes out Tuesday so I might not even bother subscribing to this. Paying even more money to see a blank screen, or even when I get my characters up, a screen which says the world is full try later then <BOOT> out I go. NICE.

I really don't understand why Square Enix doesn't do what we all want them to do. Kick AFK players so the rest of us can actually PLAY the game. If you are AFK for +2 hours then you get kicked, simple as that. Maybe when everything is back to being normal we can allow people to be idle for days, but right now, when thousands of PAYING CUSTOMERS want to play the game, let them play and remove the thousands of slackers that are not playing.

Had the error list > few hours later was able to log in > kicked trying to enter a building > now no list again.

Think i will give up for the night now

I don't understand why some players get to play and are never seeming to run into these errors yet I can't seem to play one day without having to sit and play the login game for 2-3 hours. Like, who do I have to bribe at SE to be able to play? Is there some extra feature in the mog station that I can buy where I get special login treatment?

Based on the info we've recieved, I would say that given that it is the weekend here in the US, the servers are just totally full. Yoshi stated that the server' capacity was his oversight, and they are trying to fix the issue now. Really when you think about it, the servers are probably so close to capacity at the moment and everyone is trying to get back on. However, I do think if that's the case, then the log out AFK's argument really stands here, as well as fixing the que, but as Yoshi said they are addressing that as well. So until they get more servers or figure out a way to raise capacity without overloading, I'm not seeing much of resolution until those are handled.

I tried for about 1.5 hours straight to finally get in. Plus then log in on my daughter computer for another 45 minutes. We did play for 3 hours. So more then half the time total was just trying to log in. FTW SE!!!
