Launcher Problem

[Maeriss]

This is crap. I am also on Comcast in the Seattle area. Waited for launcher, fields showed up after 20 minutes, but then... nothing.

Edit: I found a fix. Delete FFXIV_BOOT.CFG in "C:\Users\<user>\Documents\My Games\FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn". It will have you go through the EULA again and will take you directly to the play button.

That worked for me Nonok. Thanks. Wouldn't consider it a fix though, more of a workaround, but at least i'm getting some sweet sweet crafting leves in now.

I am in the Seattle area. South Seattle with Comcast. Same issue.

Thanks Nonok for a work around, that seems to work but as Ragnarok2809 says, not a fix.

The workaround did not work for me and am still just getting a black screen.. Seattle area also.

Thanks Nonok,It worked but when you exit game or boot pc you have to do it all over again to make things work. Nonok saves the day /YAY

I wanted to post here as I found a workaround that seems to work. At least it is for me.

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK

I setup a proxy to be used for my connection. Then I was able to see the login and enter my credentials. Once I had launched the game I turned the proxy off.

How to enable a proxy:

1. Navigate to Control Panel
2. Navigate to Internet Options
3. Navigate to the Connections tab
4. Click LAN Settings
5. Under Proxy Server check "Use a proxy server for your LAN"
6. Set the Address and Port.
   You can google to find free proxies to be used for this. There are many out there. Use this at your own risk. While this works, I can't guarantee your security and you need to make sure you protect your data as best as possible.
7. Launch Game
8. Log In
9. Click Play
10. Turn Off Proxy

Worked like a charm - thanks Nonok!
