All Worlds Login Difficulties (Mar. 27)

[Camate]

Greetings! I have some follow-up information from Yoshi-P to share.

Hello. Producer/Director Yoshida here.
We have improved the stability for logging on to each world, but we are still investigating Ul’dah which is down.

Also, in regards to the macro problem which many of you have reported, the GMs are currently inspecting the issue as well as discussing an announcement as to how it will be addressed.

We would like to avoid any incomplete announcements on Lodestone, so we will be making the announcement after the cause of the issue has been confirmed.
(Anything other than confirmed information will only lead to confusion and we apologize)

Hello. Producer/Director Yoshida here.

Currently, the two worlds Aegis and Durandal are increasing CPU lag due to internal server processes idling which is causing crashes.
(We speculate that the reason that in-game also feels sluggish is due in part to this CPU lag.)
We are still investigating the reasons for idling besides lag factors, since overloaded worlds besides these two are still functioning properly.

We are working our fastest for restoration and we apologize for any inconveniences.

whyd it have to be aegis, whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Ha! I'm at work, but I'm so glad i logged out in Limsa Lominsa. I figured Ul'dah would be an awful mess, especially after cramming two-servers-worth of players into it.

[Camate]

I'm back again with further information!

Do you mean that Aegis will be restored from tomorrow morning? Or did you mean that you are continuing to work on restoration currently?

We are currently working on restoring Aegis right now.
Letting it be as it is without restoring it is not an option, so we are continuing to work on this until we can restore it.

I’m just worried about this and can’t get to sleep, so if you could just let me know I’d appreciate it.

I am truly sorry, but as the work is ongoing we are not really at the point where we can say that it will be fixed after a given amount of time.

I can only apologize for those waiting anxiously to log in, but we are working our hardest to restore Aegis.

I wonder how hard it must have been for Yoshie to not snark on that not being able to sleep comment?

[Delsus]

Wow I think the server guys in Japan need a real thumbs up working this late and of course Yoshi as well

[Doho]

i guess we should pray for an... Aegis Boon. *Horatio Caine Shades* YEEEEEEEEAAAAHHH

you get it, right guys?

Bugged as hell, firearms are inba, social links are stupid, perma-death with no chance to respawn is an archaic, pseudo-hardcore mechanic that should be removed, and the developer class requires too much effort for no real advantage over other easier to play classes.

Please patch it

Yeah, I play that MMO too. Annoying crafting system, no real NMs, and it's really hard to earn in game currency. In fact, there's too many types of in game currency. And don't get me started on the server stability. I have to log out for 6 to 8 hours every day, or the game crashes. The worst part, though, is that if characters get high enough in level, they suffer perma-death, and it's completely random when that happens.

Fortunately, the community's not too bad though. I hear that there are a couple of helpful PCs that take care of you for the first 18 levels, and some of them throughout the rest of your life.
