Against "Simultaneous Logout Measures"

[Mkhaos]

No you can't. You're out for at least 10 minutes. Read the announcement.

You'd rather wait literal hours each day to get in while people sit afk?

Or wait, no, you'd rather the servers continue to be congested due to thousands of people sitting in the server doing nothing, while other try to log in putting strain on the authentication servers?

Gotcha, your plan is better. Christ the things people complain about these days.

Except no login queue takes hours in any server other than Balmung, so there's no need to do this on every server other than Balmung.

This is excessive, and it's more than 10 mins when you realize you can't do any dungeon without knowing how long it's gonna take, you'd be barred from playing the game at lest 30 mins before force logout, and this is not counting the long 30+ mins dps queue, so thats an hour for dps.

That is the only part of this that is annoying. Do anything but a dungeon. Million things to do in this game during that time.

A complete lie. Cerberus sometimes has 2k+ Ques which take 2 hours.

You'll know an hour ahead of time when it's going to happen - you can absolutely plan around that. Hour to go? If you can get in to a dungeon with more than 45 minutes you're probably safe to do, even more so if you do it with a pre-made. Do some crafting or gathering. Play some mini-games at the Saucer. Do FATEs on an alt or save centurio seal hunt marks for that time-frame if you happen to be on.

You'll hardly be barred from playing the game, unless the only thing you ever do is run dungeons and nothing else.

In other words...you'll be fine.

lol, do you even play on other servers? Afternoon-evening queues on every Chaos server consistently take 1.5-2 hours, with no less than 1800 people in queue. YES, even on the brand new servers that were created last week to prevent congestion.
Sorry but I find it hard to believe that beside our entire datacenter only one single server has this problem. This still sucks, don't get me wrong, but stomething has to be done.

yeah im having massive Q on omega, so its all servers like you said

even goblin has a queue at times, and we was considered a dead server till SB.

EU is almost certainly experiencing a different situation - nearly every NA server isn't having these long queues outside of Balmung. My server has queues from time to time, even reaching 1k players around launch, but the longest wait time I've had was about 15 minutes.

So for the Aether datacenter, it is pretty much a situation where all of the servers are going through something because of just one server...but as I said in my post above, I don't think it's hardly worth the hand wringing going on about "not being able to play for an hour" given that there's plenty that can be done even leading up to a couple minutes before the announced in advance server reset.

Louisoix server (EU). Even at peak times I've only seen a queue of like 1 (which a cancel and second login attempt bypasses). It's not all EU servers, though I imagine the bulk of them are indeed affected.
