is anyone else unable to connect to lobby server?

I'm on coerul and I just keep getting a 2002 error I can't even change datacenters without it giving me that error code

oh well, looks like its back to playing FFV on my GBA while waiting for Squeenix to do 3D remakes of it and FFVI

Seems as though all NA datacenters are toast right now. I can connect to the JP datacenter just fine, but if I try any NA datacenter, 2002 error! I was on earlier today for hours. Only reason I logged off earlier was because the PS4 controller was running super low on juice. Shouldn't have logged off. >.<!

It's like a bad rerun of the fiasco of the 2013 launch of FFXIV:ARR
I never got to play a minute of that EA either.

Four hours in a help que for the chat support, all they had to say was it's congestion and to keep trying. Just a heads up in that direction.

Unable to connect to aether I switched to primal to see if it helped and I was able to connect fine but all my character I play are on Balmung

I can't imagine next week is going to be any better when the game officially launches

Imagine this but more of us.

It's been two months since the game runs like an old lady suffering from cancer and now it's impossible to connect. Good job.

I hope before the launch squeenix uses some techno magic and makes super servers or whatever they need to do to make this game stable. I can't even trust to start the new MSQ in fear of a DC and losing information or cut scenes
