Aether Data Center Down

[djruden]

I play on PS4. I just resubbed yesterday and have spent many hours the last 2 days just trying to get logged in. It always kicks me back out to log in again with my credentials. Basically right now I'm paying to waste my time. I originally planned to go buy the expansion on Tuesday but if I can't log in by then I don't really see a reason to. I'd be a little upset I just spent another $15 but I'll cut my losses and bail on the expansion if something isn't addressed.

Thank you everyone who actually understood what I meant. The biggest problem isn't the losses in game, its the losses in the real world. What good is the stuff you worked for in game if you can't even access it? :I And then once this free month is up, SE will be all like "Lol, its time to pay up, hope you liked heavensward for the month you couldn't play it."

Are the majority of the people who are having trouble on Ps4 or PC? I am talking to some of my FC mates in Team speak and they are on PC and some of them are able to get in right now after a coupe of tries.

I'm on PC and most people I know with issues are as well. I don't know any ps4 players so I can't speak to their issues. Yesterday I had better luck. Usually if I could get in a queue I could get in even if it took 30mins of waiting. Today? I haven't managed to get in once.

At this point, if the issues continue for another few days, I fully expect we'll get a notice of credit. They made good on it last time.

Negative, that strategy unfortunately is not valid. Data center changing does not result in a fix. Neither does DNS flushing or whatever little game they have you playing.

Worked for me. And who exactly is "they"? I found it on my own.

Dunno about everyone else, but as much as I love balmung and my guild, I'm hopping ship. With the welcome back campaign starting in two days this will go on well into a month, this is practically the beginning of the end. I really don't care about in game money, I'm losing real world money when I can't even log on with my sub and don't even have the ability to play anymore. If I have to switch to a different world so be it.

Same here~ guess i'll have to join EU servers & sadly not Primal data center since it has issues too! while JP data centers had no issues at all

White Knights keep it up & enjoy being a masochist...

I just want to chime in. Been trying to login to balmung for over 4 hours. This is beyond stupid. Love the game, anxious to go through more of the story, hate 2002. That is all.

[Vespar]

Really wouldnt bug me su much if it didnt kick you from the client.... Can we please fix that...

[Fellheart]

I've been fighting to log into Balmung on Aether for 2 hours this evening. After clawing my way through the "Lobby server" error message several times, I then sit in a queue of near 1000 people only to get down to a handful of players in queue and then again get booted from the lobby server. This is absolutely absurd.

[Drasken]

Except then we'd have no way to switch to another data center. We'd be trapped if the current data center went down.

Then just add a cancel queue button and let it boot you back to the start menu. They already have that for the server queue.
