Queues

"I consulted with the president of Square Enix and I asked him if we could buy servers," Yoshida told me. "And these past few years we have acquired a large number of servers for that purpose: In Europe, we have four servers. In North America, eight, and in Japan we have four. So if we do find there is a large congestion, then we can make those servers available at the press of a button."

Time to press that button then, seeing 2600+ queues taking well over an hour, assuming your game doesn't crash from random Direct X error.

I think it took a couple of days but now the cracks in the infrastructure are starting to show themselves. Still, it was nice while it lasted. If the fix is really as simple as plugging in a few extra servers, then great. But I'm not expecting it to be that easy.

The servers all crashed like an hour ago so that's why the queues got big.

The only reason im not going to the new servers to make a new character is the " Road to 90" exp buff, game gives enough as it is lol.

For Mateus the queues have been superb. Outside a couple hours ago when apparently everyone got booted and I decided that was a good time to log in, the login queues haven't been any longer than they ever are.

I don't know which region you're in, but I've had 0 problems. I go to Dynamis (shoutout to Dynamis ;P) and my 3,700+ que goes to 63. If I need to handle retainers, I go back to my original server at night and have a que of about 7. I've only been kicked out of que 1 time the night of release and when I went back it had saved my spot.

I'd strongly suggest, if you're having DC / login issues, please check out a lesser populated data center in your region. If you're worried about not being able to go back, wait until after peak, usually at night, and I doubt you'll have trouble.

This has been the best expac launch I've experienced thus far. I have very strong criticisms with their choices in the story and the graphics update for characters, but log in hasn't been an issue at all.

I also don't see a reason why they'd need extra servers when there are full datacenters free for use. I could be wrong about that one, but just my opinion thus far.

Just was kicked from a 4000+ queue at 597 saying world was full. Ugh. Pre-reserve is just not worth it. Can't get enough play time before actual launch.

This sounds like a server issue.
I've had no issue so far except the server opening.
I've been through HW, SB, ShB, EW and now DT opening and DT got the best launch.

Considering right before we went through DDOS attacks, this is impressive.
