The server is full, try again later (1017)

While not the best policy from a monetary standpoint... spending that extra money and over delivering with a smooth launch has it's own benefits.... look at the D3 launch... similar situation... no one could login.

That's bull... I had D3 running everyday from launch and so did all my friends who played it... just cause a handful of people couldn't get on for whatever reason doesn't mean we all couldn't get on. Just like all the wow expansions... I never had any issue with any of their releases... albeit I only played about 2-3 hours at a time theres a good chance it happened when I wasnt home but never had the issues when I wanted to play... same goes for 1.0. I beta tested it and did the EA without a single hitch. I will admit Aion *PVP* servers had issues but non pvp servers and RP servers DID NOT have those issues. 1.0 only flopped cause of all the restrictions on leveling and such... who wants to play a game with only a 15 hour window for the week to level. (though there were MANY ways to rapidly level and feel like you bypassed that restriction) THIS ISN'T something to be expected in an release day. We have THOUSANDS who can't get on.. SE deserves to be reported to the Better Buisness Bureau. If by the 29th I still can't log on properly I WILL report them. They will deserve to have their reputation ruined.

The message says to wait for an opening on the server...where do I check when an opening opens?

There is no place to check, sadly.

Really starting to wonder why I bothered to buy this game if I cant ever play it....

I demand blood be spilt and the person in charge of servers commit seppuku!

Coming from FFXIV 1.0, I have to say I am utterly disappointed at this 1017 situation. They seem to be very concerned, even Yoshida shed few tears, but thats all they do! They milk enough cash out of you first, then screw you in the ass, then pretend to be sorry. But they will leave the mess to you to deal with. Early access didn't mean crap when I can't even play during early access. I had enough of this, especially from SE. Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, well, fuck you and goodbye!

You can ask for peoples' understanding and cooperation all you want, but the fact of the matter is, you're not going to need any of those additional server upgrades when 85% of the people who purchased the game will likely ask for refunds.

Created a new character on a random JP server. Named the toon Useu Protest. Sitting in front of the town's Aetheryte afk while I now go out for dinner.
