Well kid if you and the other person thinks the rest of the content beyond the congested one sucks then here's what ya do. - Delete your game and break the disk in half in a mad butthurt rage because you couldn't be patient enough to let them sort the issue out. There saved you time and wasted energy of getting pissy over congested day 1 content.

It's even worse now.

You wanted to do RDM while the MSQ resolves itself? Can't - There's an instanced portion that, instead of just booting you at Raubahn, will straight up kick you out of the server.

It's gotten to the point where the only thing I can do is FATE farm or grind Hand/Land but we'll be locked into going in an area we cannot access because of the MSQ bottleneck. I sincerely hope that they will reconsider MSQ bottlenecks in terms of area visiting in the future, so that at least we have other things to do while this happens.

Um, yeah, I do think you are correct, definitely "an a hole" lurking about lol

Not my problem if the QQ'ers on here didn't expect this to happen. Its generally entertaining watching people cry about it honestly. And. In the words of Dennis Leary "yes im a a**hole and proud of it"

Another word, the worst customers that aren't making things easier instead just full blowing up forums and pour oil into fires. Quit and uninstall games, good. Better for everyone, we don't need these people

Hey hon do you know how 1.0 was fixed? We didn't stay quiet like good little lambs. We spoke up about it. I dont care if you've worked at a IT firm, and i really could care even less as to what Squares excuse is. Why should we be? We aren't employees we are consumers. So how about you do everyone a favor and get off the **TECH SUPPORT** forums and take your disdain of our concerns somewhere else yeah?

I'm new to this game but I have played MMOs for a long time. I am very disappointed that an MMO would allow a customer base to sit around and wait for the product that is being paid for to become available. The problem of server congestion during new content is-or should be-an old and out dated problems. Analysts in companies such as Square Enix have literally terabytes of data (now spanning decades) that can be researched for patterns and predictions that might cause disruptions to its consumers. The fundamental foundation to any profit organisation is 'demand and supply' there is a reasonable expectation that if a consumer 'demands' with money a product than the business will supply it to them. I appreciate that Square are being very polite and seem to be sincerely sorry for this error but this could have been avoided with good business decisions - backed up with analytical research.

I also appreciate that the fan base are very positive and a lot of people are optimistic that the problems will be fixed once the surge of excitement wears off and the servers are back to normal capacity; however I feel that consumers being told to 'wait for the congestion to thin out' is a bit of a slap in the face. If this game were free then I could understand and accept it more readily but we are paying to play this game and as such, don't we deserve to be able to play? I also disagree with people that are saying it happens to every single MMORPG, this simply is not true, I can think of one off the top of my head which I won't mention and I'm sure there are many, many more out there. People who have such a blind and overly optimistic attitude make me wonder if they are trolling or have ulterior motives for their comments.

I wholeheartedly believe this could have been avoided and in this day and age server congestion should be considered a thing of the past.

This is a great game and I'm really enjoying it but to experience server congestion during my 'honeymoon period' of FF14 is making it very hard for me to warm to it further.

I'm not even able to connect to the server half of the time, and I am getting constantly DC'd every time I try to progress MSQ (I am level 30).

My two cents is this, I don't care that the issues are there BnS launch day was hella worse you were forced to be a Subscription user in order to log in, I don't care if the servers can't really handle the load, what I see as wrong is the lack of communication that's it a GOOD customer support/ It team would work together to have at least some form of answer that the community could hear even one as simple as "our servers are unable to handle the load we are doing our best to resolve the issue." Instead we are getting the silent treatment and a literal fuck off pleb. I just downloaded the game and purchased the ARR so me and my wife could try this game out together, we aren't so childish as to demand the problem get fixed but the lack of communication form SE makes them just as bad as Nexon America (which is garbage btw).

Here are some words for ANYONE who seems to think we as customers should shut our mouths: YOU are the reason consumers have no voice, the minute a corporation breaks trust sycophants like you rush to defend them. You have literally stifled the voice of the consumer when you have vast swaths of players quick to tell anyone who complains about BAD SERVICE to shut up and and delete their game. YOU are the reason game companies think they can charge 60 dollars a game, you have lowered the expectations on average for the entire gaming base with this TIRING RHETORIC about how we should give these RICH & COMFORTABLE devs our patience when we, the PEOPLE WHO PAY THEIR SALARIES have the RIGHT TO DEMAND ABOVE PAR RESULTS. So take your "stop whining" bs and just admit that you are the slave to your corporate masters, you sure as hell try to silence our dissent enough to make them proud.
