Against "Simultaneous Logout Measures"

[TaranTatsuuchi]

This is becoming insulting quite frankly.

Videogame or not, this is an online service and people are paying a subscription along with all the extras from the cash shop.
Some scheduled vacations for the launch of Stormblood only to be greeted by a mess and endless queues.
Then a majority of players who gets home from work and can only play during prime time are also greeted with queues, laggy housing districts, malfunctioning dungeon finders along other issues.

And now to further add to it, SE wants to punish paying subscribers further by implementing FORCED boot out of the game for all players(ironically now that queues are slowly stabilizing...).
I am expecting the log in servers to be flooded after the 10 minute sit out and a new queue problem making the experience for everyone considerably worse. I really hope that I am wrong about this though.

In any other online service subscribers would have been COMPENSATED by now.

Those issues you're complaing about?

That's what happens with all the afk players hogging up the server resources...
All those people trying to hide from other players so they don't get reported?
In their housing/apartment...


This is a step towards trying to rectify those issues.
It's an easy step to take, requiring no...

Or they could do the logical thing and, ya know, patch the exploit so that the afk timer kicks them out properly.

Development time and testing time, which would likely put a fix too late to make any difference for the current issue.


Still needs to be done though...
Manage the symptoms, while working on curing the problem.
