Lobby Connection Error

[Tyssyn]

This 2002 'error' isn't an error per se. It's explained in the lodestone post Regarding congestion during Endwalker's Launch. It happens because there are over 17000 waiting in the login queue for the world you are trying to log in to. The only POSSIBLE thing they could have done would have been to add new worlds/new data centers, and they couldn't because there is a shortage of components. They looked into getting more servers, they've been very transparent about it. below is the portion of the lodestone post regarding the 2002 lobby error.

"“Error 2002” may be displayed when selecting a character in the Character Selection menu. This error is displayed when the login server is experiencing high amounts of traffic or when the number of characters waiting in a login queue for a logical Data Center exceeds 17,000. This is a measure to prevent the server from crashing due to extreme traffic overloads."

This isn't a solution, a solution is to resolve it, as you have lots of people wanting to play and can't because we are in an endless cycle of being disconnected because of server load. Other measures should have taken place as over 26 million people play this game, so basically most of us won't be able to play due to server overload, ok then give me my money back for the time I took off work and what I paid for, for pre-order, this is simply inexcusable.

They could have allowed people to Q instead of blatantly kicking people out of the menu because there are too many people trying to play at once. People just want to be able to Q we aren't sitting here mad over a game launch that happens sure but completely making it unplayable for a ton of people is just wrong.
