Worst Game Release ever

[Kiaa]

I doubt SE will fix it… honestly a lot of the problems could be solved with a change in one simple section of their code… when people get kicked randomly for the 2002 bug, give them more time to get back into queue before they lose their place in line. Several times I’ve been queued for multiple hours, got a random kick followed by being unable to reconnect to the data center for several attempts and then finally reconnecting to find myself back at the end of the line.

I can forgive technical problems, poor coding is another thing.

100%. From a software engineer stand point that have worked on multiple illegal mmo servers, this is one of the worst networking I have seen used. There are so many things that they could have done to make everything much better or that should have already been in.

For instance, losing connection in a game if it wasn't done through a proper shutdown method can be considered as a saved spot in queue for x time - which they don't even do. Random crash! back to a 5 hour wait to get in game - but only after if I make it in time after the 50 error 2002's on a stable connection.

Other than that, there should be no reason to have a limit of "17k" connections hitting the login server - if something like that is occurring, then that's some bad code and design. Then again, if you want the most out of any mmo, you should just drop using any form of game engine and code the game from scratch with tools alongside - you end up with better performance overall by doing things correctly for an mmo.

lol Pay the sub you cannot log on to... And you think you are getting something...

I think Yoshi P needs to invest in server infrastructure before next patch, they can ease on the glamour in the store, funny thing is there is no internet problems when they are charging for mounts and fantasia.

They say they're giving us 7 days, but still haven't. When I actually see my sub count go up 7 days then I'll be more patient. Can't wait for the news update that says that due to the chip shortage the system was unable to give the 7 days to some players.

If you check the post linked by the player you quoted, you'll read that the 7 free days will be granted with the official release of Endwalker, on the 7th of December.

I am legit still flabbergasted nobody (WHO IS ABLE TO DO IT) doesn't do it:





(this excludes workers/students/parents/those who cannot due to other reasons)

But my GOD do I meet people who has more free time in their hands than a cat during a lazy Sunday scrubbing itself off.
for ONCE take your insomnia in advantage and switch it around so you have quick queues during bed times and sleep during peak hours.
Worried you can't play with your friends? Then stop whining, nobody would pay SUB just to hang out with friends they could on DISCORD.
FFS.

Toxic much?

I dunno m8...id say Karma.

Personally, they can take their seven pity days and shove them. My time is worth more than the couple of bucks of ‘good will’ they threw in.

Greetz,

I can't believe people would call this the worst launch ever when 1.0 existed.

Facepalms.. Mystery... You're an ass. You need to learn a little social grace.
Your approach to a players legit concerns is borderline troll. Which suggests to me your upbringing is a little than adequate. (meaning you had shit parents that taught you shit values)

Tells someone they need to learn social grace (we actually already have a word for this: "tact") and proceeds to insult that person's parents in the next sentence....

Unless you are literally dying next week and this is your only chance to ever play the expansion than frankly I don't care about your situation. You can do something else with your time until they fix it, your other choice is to never play again, which still requires you to do something that isnt play the game so.....

Mysterybounty by the look of those rage qutting drama queens , hopefully within a week will reduce queue by few thousands
