7 days of Free Game Time due to Congestion.

Everyone is getting 7 days free game time due to XIV's congestion issues during early access. More in the future if issues persist longer

This is reasonable.

I didn't see the other thread can let this one die.

It's actually good, yes people are going to be disappointed ATM of course because they did everything humanly possible to at least try and reduce the impact to people but are still struggling but they're more than willing to offset the impact of this on players by compensating them for playtime lost in this case. Sure it sucks being stuck in 3 hour queue times of course BUT by giving people extra sub time for nothing this at least means players arent being burned by this.

It should also be said that things will eventually improve over time as thing's settle down, alot of people are trying to play right now because of new classes and story content but once the initial surge passes things will settle down to a more acceptable level in the past. Give it a week or 2 and those massive queues will evaporate.

This is fair compensation, imo. You're losing play time, they give you free play time. You're not losing the expansion.

Agreed they even announced if need be will give more time I'm so disappointed with our community right now acting like the Karen at a fast food location demanding the workers serve her and not anyone else.

whats the point of giving another 7 days if sub you cant potentially use? IF you are office worker and work usual 9-5 you are out of options regardless, they can give you month compensation, would change a single thing, you just cant enter the game

That's actually unexpected and very welcomed. Thanks

The point is that they are expecting the major problems to be gone within 7 days of early access, therefore they are compensating you for the week you couldn't log in.
