I mean... if it isn't working at 3~4am on a workday. Do people really think that prime time and going into a weekend is going to be any better?

Prime time on a weekend is probably going to start a fire in the SE building from server heat. No, I think we might just be screwed here.

A major issue is that a large majority of the expansion is gated behind that particular mission. Can't explore fully, can't gather all of the aether currents, can't do dungeons without progressing past it etc. The only options are to FATE grind, do something else (but gathering / crafting wastes your exp bonus), complete the other quests (I've already done these) or give up until later and log out.

I don't have much confidence in it being fixed by tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. Honestly don't understand how this issue wasn't anticipated. Also, queueing to enter doesn't solve anything unless every person on every shared data centre also queues. And they won't (we shouldn't have to). So ...

Well duh. That's just the normal MSQ gating we've had from level 1 onward. It might well happen "again" on a different mission later down the road.

At least this time you can level the new jobs elsewhere in the meantime >_>

thats the main reason I kept spamming it. If you don't get through now its only going to get worse as more people get home from work.

I am slowly getting annoyed by the fact that there is 0, really just 0 communication from Dev Team/Moderators here. They could say atleast something, that they're maybe planning to do emerg. maint or simply be fucking honest and say they got no intention of doing so and let people wait. Enough of this nonsense. Pre-order & early access in my @!$.

now balmung is having regular mass-disconnects on an ongoing basis, with 2000 person queues that make it take forever to get back on. So even if you were to get it, high chance you'd disconnect out.

The further down the line the instance is, the less bottlenecked it will be, because people will filter into it more slowly than if it's right at the start of the expansion.
