LOL!! Maintenance just ends and already a new error on log in!!

I wonder if the people who spam their attempts to get in are getting temporarily blocked from seeing the NA/EU server list (basically preventing a DDoS). Did anyone getting this message receive it from the start?

I woke up (went to bed when the 12 am maintenance started), turned on the computer, started up FXIV, clicked "start", and hit the 1017 before I even got a character list (meaning I couldn't even play on a JPN server because it kicked me back to start before giving any of the options).

So, no, it's not DDoS logic. If it were, SE's just making the problem worse: if they queue'd people instead of forcing these repeated attempts to get in, the servers would be under less load.

post this AGAIN for the slow ppl... Still have 20mins -_- read ok!

IT IS BECAUSE PEOPLE DO NOT READ! MAINTENANCE IS SCHEDULED TO BE FROM 15:30-17:30 GMT. IT EQUATES TO 1:30 PM EDT/10:30 PDT. Sorry for the caps. Figured the bigger letters would get noticed.

hahaha... I need to see a follow up post from each of you

I'm starting to think that the people with the power to fix this are just on weekend break with their families and just the bare minimum are in charge of servers right now and they are probably running around with their hands in their hair not knowing what to do...

hahaha yeah u got it

What did the 2 hour maint do exactly? They need another data center it's obvious. Why can't they just come and say it!

The game is great I love it, the servers are crap though. More infrastructure please SE EU/NA is A massive region of the earth one data center just wont cut the mustard........mmmmm mustard!

This website is extremely unreliable. It constantly is wrong. Says they are down when I'm in playing, says they are up when you can't get on. You should really find a different site to depend on.

Somewhere YOshida is saying to himself... "Damn Gaijins... first they mess Godzilla and now they break our FF servers"....
