Worst Game Release ever

[Akamadoshi]

As a coder, I can tell you it’s much easier that you would think. Names/addresses are kept in a floating database and checked against a server clock, if x amount of time has passed since last contact then the entry is removed from its position in the list. Increase the value of x to accommodate the current known issue and most people will be able to resume their positions in line.

I hear SE is hiring, go help them out.

The thing that annoys me about the 2002 bug is that only people coming into the end of the queue should really be getting it…

Databases like the ones used for the queue are built to a precise size, they assume a maximum load and build the database to fit what they feel is going to be the worst case scenario for a given dataset… in this case the maximum number of people trying to break down their doors at one time. So a number is set, in this case right around the 17,000 mark. Good even number that divides by 8.

Now once the database is full, anyone coming in at the end would get an error, thus the 2002. The real issue is the people getting kicked while already in queue. Either they should be getting a different error or the server is just having some kind of memory leak and randomly kicking people after a certain period of time. I would love to see the actual logs on this.

As a player i can tell u its much lmao.
I cant count the times i've read that type o'stuff, it almost feels like copy paste.
I wonder, if there are so many great super coders out there...why do we still have those problems?
But eh Sgt Smart, maybe u can get over urself and help them out by just sending them some Email with ur easy peasy solution?
Otherwise its just what others do...runnin ur mouth.
Of course, only if u consider this worth ur time.
Thanks in advance.

Greetz,
Mörser out

This is certainly not the worst launch I have seen. It is annoying, yes, but far from the worst.
I just hope a lot of these people who feel so Sqenix has really damaged them and now say they are cancelling the sub really do it. Less people playing, more chances of getting in these days.

This is the third 5000 person queue I've sat in today. Not because I logged out between them, mind you. Because I hit first place, 2002 error, back of the line. Hit first again, 90ked while it logged in, back to 5000th place you go.

This queue resetting is bullshit.

Okay again, paying my sub when logging in is almost impossible is like buying headlights for a car that doesn't even start. So yeah, that's polishing silver while the house is on fire. It means nothing, don't pay my sub, use my sub to fix the servers.

[WastedWanderer]

i full agree but to the expac its not the worst and we are getting this all for free anyway
