Against "Simultaneous Logout Measures"

Awesome, devote resources into finding new ways to log people out of your game instead of putting resources into getting us to play it.

It's just the mogstation money clearly at work.

This is a resource to get people to play it if you think about it, so people who can never log in due to long queues might actually have a fighting chance.

keyword: "MIGHT". They also might not. People who can never log in due to long queues might still be left sitting outside waiting for people to log off so they can get in. Heaven help them if they happen to get 90k'd at some point during the process and they get sent to the back of the line..

This is not a solution. It's barely even a band-aid.

Why is SE punishing the people that actually play the game and not going against those who use the Auto Logout loopholes?

[savageink]

It's about time they did something. If you want to blame somebody blame the "circumventors". They have never logged people out for afk unless it was a launch period with high traffic, and they have always told us they were doing it and the reason. These guys chose to try to work around it, instead of co-operating so other people could play. If all they can say is they are on a high pop server and the queue times are too long. Then they should use the free transfers and move, because the queues are obviously too much for them.

Your sig sums this up nicely for me at the moment, but I won't hate on it so harshly yet till I see the results.

Or we could all just chill out and wait to see what happens before you all scream doom and gloom?
I would only wish they did it to either just Aether or the two servers but it is what it is. I'm just tired of working all day, come home and greeted to 4 hour waits and by the time I'm in, I may as well go to bed. I can barely enjoy my time on because I'm tired.

people acting upset over a 10 min wait and all but a lot of us wait hours. so I do hope there are no huge repercussions on this but on the other side, THANK YOU JESUS.

You realize that this 'measure against simultaneous logout' is not actually a fix for allowing players to get in, right? If it's the middle of prime time and your server doesn't have any afk players, there's no guarantee you'll be able to get online after the 10 minute timeout period. This just forces people to log out. It is not a guarantee of anything. There's a very good chance that you could still be stuck waiting hours to log in to your server.

By the way, is the revenue of FF14 actually flowing into Final Fail 15? Or is that just a meme at this point.

Just been something I keep hearing and at this point it makes sense :U
