Regarding Results of Maintenance (Sep. 4): Follow-up

[Aliena]

fixing duty finder stabilized the servers which allows more concurrent logins. I'm in the same boat, though...NA/EU servers are down... I know this isn't permanent. Trying to be optimistic.

The fact that people are still experiencing problems set aside for a moment. A greater than 50% increase in server capacity in 2 weeks is literally off the charts insane. I can only assume some of these changes were already in the works, because you just can't get those kind of results in that amount of time normally. While I am never happy - in the professional sense - with glitchy products, I'd say we're pretty much where we should be at this point, given the state of the launch. Should there have been massive server capacity problems at launch? No. But there were, and given that irrefutable fact, I think the amount of work they have done to alleviate the problem has been satisfactory.

While I wasn't expecting the return of 3102 explicitly, it also doesn't really surprising me. Any changes done on this scale in only 2 weeks are bound to have growing pains, that's just not enough time to run proper QA. Assuming they aren't just outright lying to us - which I have no reason to believe that they are - all of the groundwork has been laid, now it's just patching up the new problems they created with their solution (3102, lobby server congestion, etc).

I'll just leave this here....

So we continue to have issues with logging into servers just so we can have a cross server Duty Finder tool that was suppose to be convenience when it comes to creating groups. Problem is the Cross server DF takes longer for you to make a group then it does if you do Shouts looking for people for your group. Also Server only LFG tools from games like SWTOR where faster than this tool. 30 Minutes max to get a group in SWTOR with their server only LFG Tool and I was DPS. what does that tell you. A lot of issues just so we can have a Cross Server LFG tool that is not being helpful.

The Servers are not down, and Have not come down at all. I logged on right when servers came up with 0 problems, and they have been up and stable the entire time. You not being able to see the world list, is an issue of authentication server relaying you the information, because its being Hammered by 14,000 12 year olds with nothing to do. And they are using AHK Bots to spam login while being afk. Not taking all the pressure off SE but a lot of this is problems we are causing ourselves. If everyone didn't stay online 24/7 out of fear of not being able to get in. Most likely half this issue would be alleviated right there.

Granted ( and being honest) this is the first time it took me 2 hours before I could get on. I do understand everyone frustration. However, it's not like SE is sitting on their but not doing anything, they are trying to fix this issue so that everyone can play. So if I can't get on I do other things in the process of that:

• Take a walk
• Play a different game
• Play a board game
• Go to the park

You've got to be kidding, lol.

As for the results of this maintenance, well, it seems like error 3102 is working smoothly again. Logged in flawlessly, played for a bit, got 90000'd, and now my character is apparently perpetually logged in. Only that I'm not.

Just to clarify, OP says "7500-7800 simultaneus logins" not 7500-7800 max world capacity.
