No improvements

Guys, the backup servers were just added to increase the amount of people the lobby servers could handle before giving the 2002 errors. from 17k to 21k in queue to login to world servers. Thats all that did, and that was a 30 min maintenance YESTERDAY morning. The one last night was the usual bugfix patch we get after every patch.


I had to sit in queue for 3.5 hours today after my PC crashed so i get it, but... theres nothing they can do at the moment.

I must be lucky but I just sat in a 5000 queue for about 2 hours on Balmung and not one error. This hasn't been my experience given I've had numerous 2002's every day this week in prime time. If they could do away with the error's most of this outrage would die down.

After an hour of waiting, the queue strangely dropped down to "1" and that's where I was stuck for like 40 minutes.

Made it back after two Error 2002 and amazingly enough got in.

I kind of wish they would implement an auto reconnect so you didn't have to log in again after error 2002.

Or if they could actually fix it so you didn't get the error. 17K still seems like a small number across the whole datacenter.

Yeah, I am trying to stay positive but, considering I just got dced during the last boss of a dungeon, and the queue is over 4k on my world...my goodwill is running a bit thin. Think I'll just go play something else till I hear anything about better queue times or more servers. Nothing against the game or the developers but, I really am not in the mood to sit in a queue for another 3 to 4 hours just to have to re-run the dungeon. so yeah, have fun folks.

I like when people make and post in these topics only to out themselves as people who have no idea what they're talking about.

I'm tired of having to say what Square did repeatedly months ago. There's a global semiconductor shortage, they literally cannot buy new servers despite desperately wanting to. You clowns need to put an inkling of effort into reading WHY they don't have more servers before just assuming things.

Is it still frustrating? Absolutely. Is it their (the devs and Square's) fault that the playerbase massively increased over the last 9 months and they had no way to prepare for it? No.

All I can say is be patient about it. Just do your other daily routine while waiting for them to solve the issues. There are workarounds that may help you get in game. Like asking friends or relatives to queue early for you, or use remote desktop.

Also, avoid wireless connections if possible. Test the ISPs for the best gaming experience. I avoid ISPs that gives me bad connections for games.

I can not even GET into the 3 servers on Primal that I have characters on to play them, I keep getting below 2 or 3k and getting the 2002 error and knocked back up to 4 to 6k. I am on a wired connection and why should I have to get others to log in for me, how's it fair to pay a subscription for a game and not even be able to get into said game to actually play? I have been trying to get in since early access started, I got Neriana logged in one time on Leviathan and was able to pick up Reaper, mind you not get into the actual quest, but pick it up. Since then I've not gotten back into the game. I keep being told to have patience, I did during Early Access, which for me consisted of que up....get to 2 or 3k in que, get disconnected by 2002 error. This is extremely frustrating, so those of you with the patience who have gotten in and are able to level up who keep saying have patience, its almost impossible by this point and before people jump in and call us INTITLED, we're not, we're just frustrated with a product that we were promised we would have early access to and some of us can't even log into and we're at the 7 days they comp'd us, but still can't get in.

The 2002 error you are getting may not be the fault of SE either - as mentioned, the common cause of them are the mini-disconnects that you yourself get from your ISP. You can actually monitor these yourself via your Task Manager under the "performance" tab on a windows based PC.



Using mine as an example, over the period of 60 seconds, I had multiple times where I had send: 0 and dipped to Receive: 0 a good chunk as well. These little dips are often the causes of the 2002 errors seen, though no one wants to think it's their end's or their ISP's end's fault.

You have a life and a job? What are you insane? How dare you not have time for an overhyped xpac you can't play because of issues that should have been solved before ma chips and cov dip. The nerve of people wanting what they paid for....
