Being told the fun doesn't end with Raubahn. We have to deal with this crap from Pippin, Yugiri, our class quests, and a few others.
Yep.
Even if you get past Raubahn there's another solo duty shortly afterwards. I can't speak for how many there are beyond that but I imagine there's quite a few.
In less than an hour it will have officially been an entire day where this issue has existed. Some people have stubbornly tried to advance for most of that period. Others, such as myself have gone away and returned later in the hope that things will have improved only to find that nothing has changed.
It's also the weekend - a time where most people have extra free time so things aren't going to be smooth until at least Monday if this keeps up.
Don't be so harsh guys, it's not like they knew how many preorders they took, nor could they expect that people who pre-ordered would actually play the game at early access.
Took me 23 hours to get past Cold Steel and In Crimson combined. Just confirmation we are still leaking through...emphasis on leak.
you people need to just go and do other stuffs and stop crying about how it doesn't work.
the wave will pass in 1 day or 2 depends on how ridiculously over populated your server is.
our server had a "line"... a freaking "line up here for your turn" line to do the MSQ... but it was gone after 1 hour and I didn't even need to try to get it.
the fight itself is way too long... that's prob what is taking up the DF server. should make it shorter... and let everyone in and out fast.
Easier solution, flag the quest as completed so everybody can move on. Post what the story said or post a video to watch, lore fixed, situation fixed, we move on. its time for serious solutions, there is still a huge mass of people at the quest spots stuck hours after they released a "fix" to allow more people. This is at 3:30 AM and there are hundreds waiting on my server alone. How bad is it going to be when the sun comes up? Write an SQL script to flag the quest completed so we can more on, please!
You do know that on the 20th more people will log in that will try to do this? So how exactly will waiting help us? Also if most of us will wait we will just be in the same situation again. If they do not change anything about this we will be going at this for days. This is not a bug, this is not a "oh sorry servers crashed please wait for 3 hours", this is something that might take days. And its something that should not even happen if they had thought about it? Why make a solo instance at the start of an expansion? And lets not forget that quite some other stuff is also not doable thanks to the instances being full.
Letter from the Producer LIVE Part IX Q&A Summary (10/30/2013)
Q: Will there be any maintenance fees or other costs for housing, besides the cost of the land and house?
A: In older MMOs, such as Ultima Online, there was a house maintenance fee you had to pay weekly, but in FFXIV: ARR we decided against this system. Similarly, these older MMOs also had a system where your house would break down if you didn’t log in after a while in order to have you continue your subscription, but this is a thing of the past and we won't have any system like that.
I feel like with today's technology, gaining access to this info should not be this hard. I have been at this for over 20 hours now. A simple queue system for solo instances so people could have a place in line and do other things at the same time would have went a long way at reducing frustration. I really felt like they did not properly prepare for this.
People are justifiably angry and there are no words that can describe my disappointment as a paying customer.
It should be common practice to assume the worst possible situation and properly prepare for it.

Hey there. May I interest you for a tinfoil hat? It's super durable and 100% tinfoil.
And to those spamming the MSQ instance, you're part of the problem. It's like punching yourself in the face repeatedly and then complaining about it.
Why not go do something else in the meantime?
