Eh it was an upgrade. All numbers went up. Queue times went up, pings went up, frustration went up. It's an upgrade.
I lost my perfect ping for servers that are just as bad.
Whats the point of early access if we cant play at all due to the instance limit blocking the MSQ at the very start? Steps of Faith part 2... or would that be part 3?
And they simply could have made this one of those fights where we go into the violet circle and spawn the monsters (I have no idea what happens since I am still stuck on the first cutscene like a lot of people), yet they somehow thought that a solo story fight that traps everything else (even the whole map!)behind it would be fine.
I am also quite sure that nothing will change at launch day.
Letter from the Producer LIVE Part IX Q&A Summary (10/30/2013)
Q: Will there be any maintenance fees or other costs for housing, besides the cost of the land and house?
A: In older MMOs, such as Ultima Online, there was a house maintenance fee you had to pay weekly, but in FFXIV: ARR we decided against this system. Similarly, these older MMOs also had a system where your house would break down if you didn’t log in after a while in order to have you continue your subscription, but this is a thing of the past and we won't have any system like that.
Try it around 3 am of your timezone. Or wait 1-2 days and level up RDM or SAM
And if lots of people will do this we will have the same problem. Also all the people that are leveling the new jobs right now will get back to it too so even more people that will try it. And we have real launch soon too. How long should people wait till they can get on in with the first parts of the MSQ? :/

What was point if massive amount of people are disconnecting at once and can't even play 30 minutes before getting disconnected. Also server on wasn't on listed that was over populated.
Been here since beta. This exact thing happens each time they release an expansion. When ARR came live it was an instance in Central Thanalan, we also had to form a line for that. I thought they would have learned by now.
One datacenter to take care of the entire American Continent.
Think about it.
Who's to say that the server 'upgrade' didn't help?
Perhaps it would have been much worse with the old datacenter.
