[JamieLee]

im on hyperion only took me from 9 am to 10 pm to actually get the hell on.... Anyways ya its pretty busy atm... Unless u hit little aia mago where it seems everyone likes to hide in the cave and afk... Literately saw about 40+ people afking there...

08:27 in the morning GMT and it's full... First day off in almost 2 weeks... Dogs walked... House is tidy after tidying last night in preparation for hopeful playtime today... Tonights dinner ready... other half is at work... friends are all at work/busy... only been able to log on for one day since Early Access... I have only one thing to say... "waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh!!"

Don't yous have jobs and school to go to in the morning? Its Aussie play time now!

Why would Aussies play on the NA/EU servers? Wouldn't JP have lower ping?

[gintoki88]

all they need to do is get the queue system working properly and that will stop forcing people to afk, since they are mostly afking because there is no queue to get in, rather afking because its full.

I would be much happier if they just had the queue and i had to wait in line for awhile then mashing Start>Character Name>Ok>Ok>Start>and so on

3:25 where I'm at, been trying to log into the game Sargatanas server for the last 3 hours. No dice. 5000 connections, and I"m willing to bet more then half are at home sleeping right now, afk in the inn. I love how SE claims they are monitoring the servers to make sure things like this don't happen. Any other MMO that had issues like this at launch pulled down servers right away and addressed the issue. SE response to the issue, add new worlds, don't add an afk kicker to fix the problem. Good job, worst launch ever. Or I should say worst 2nd launch ever.

That is true, but ultimately NA has more english speaking players then the JP.

Unofficially some Oceanic community decided

JP Legacy - Masamune
JP New - Tonberry
JP New - Tiamat
NA Legacy - Sargatanas
NA New - Behemoth

those severs are in favor for Aussie players

Dont get me wrong i also have a alt on the JP sever Masamune but i am also getting the 1017 error on that one too.

[ZeffiX]

Well,
Square says they will add new worlds this week for more people go afk in there, lol

[_C-a-e-r-i-t-h_]

Why is Square waiting until Wednesday to do anything? Why can't they do anything today? Or yesterday? It's 4:38pm in Japan right now, what did S-E do all day?

Ah, I didn't know that the oceanic community decided on those servers.

Though, that also begs the question, why is there no Oceanic region in general o.o not just JP, but make it oceanic.. ah whatever.

I can understand why taking the hardware to upgrade/install will take awhile (because ordering it might have factored in), but there's 0 excuse for no anti-afk/login queue fixes :\ that's programming for the most part (especially the anti-afk stuff).

If they want to combat the problem they're gonna have to about quadruple the number of available servers. WoW for example has 226 servers for just the "Unite States" server cluster alone.
