This is not a bug. We're locked out of the game on purpose because the servers can't handle the amount of people using them. Even worse than being victim to this, is the fact that SE has offered little more than a generic news feed to explain or apologize for it. The default message that comes up for 1017 should be changed to "Your access to the game has been arbitrarily revoked to prevent system failure".

Been trying all day to log in, been a "fun" day at watching the 1017 error, when i get to pass to the loading screen i get 2002 error just to spice things up, well that was my early access since i cant play tomorrow, splendid job from SE, im worried that on tuesday things will just get worst

Exactly right, and it is a complete and utter disgrace. Essentially what they've done is take money for a service they cannot provide. They need to fix this problem and it needs to be done soon.

EDIT: A new garbage update -

"As we previously announced, we are continuing to limit the number of logins in order to address the high server load. We are slowly lifting the login restriction, so if you are currently unable to login, please try again at a later time.

Again, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience that this is causing everyone, but we would like to ask for your continued cooperation to make this a stable environment."

Repeatedly apologizing for your incompetence is only going to make people more angry, myself included. Fix the problem or at the very least give us a real update to the issue so we can at least try to make a guess as to WHEN we might actually be able to the play the game that we already PAID for. Just a complete failure across the board on SE's part to this early access.

Been getting 1017 and nothing but, no queue, not a single successful login, for over 6 hours. My wife has been logged in right next to me all day, and has logged on and off multiple times with no issues.
wtf?
