The server is full, try again later (1017)

[Wakaflaka]

After 2 hours of error msg's finally got in, only to be kicked out again 10 mins later this is just sad....

Welp got the loading screen for 3 minutes (opposed to the normal 10 secondish) then an error. Awesome..

SE can Blizzard host your game maybe?

"3 days of early access"? it's more like 6hours of questing and you cant use duty finder or instances.....sounds awfully like a beta and not ready for release on the 27th.

Was locked out of my server all yesterday, was able to get in this morning to make my character so I was quite happy. Been leveling her and during an attempt to queue a quest dialog, it glitched my character. Couldn't do any actions or move so I had to force close. Go to log back in, tells me they can't find any servers, quit, try again, everything is going great, puts me in queue (was like 278 no big deal).... errors out. Try again to log back in.... Server is full 1017. And that's how it's been going ever since.

Just give us queues... I don't care if it says 1000+ people ahead of me... at least give me the option to wait it out.

Uhh did we just break the JP servers too? I'm getting the can't populate server error again.. this with JP servers

[skylan]

I hope we do break the JP servers, I feel like a damn second rate citizen here.

"This world is currently full. Please wait untill and opening is available and try again. 1017" How exactly is one suppose to even know when there is an opening so that they can try again when there is no queue? Even when I do get a queue, I'm in queue for all of 10 seconds before I get booted with the above error again. I try to log in over and over again getting the same error over and over again. Then, I click on "start" one more time only to find out that I am unable to "update the group NA/EU character list" or I am disconnected from the lobby server or when I do manage to get through all the bullcrap, and actually start loading, I get "connection to server was lost"

No word whatsoever from SE since the last maintenance about these issues which they say they fixed.

Do I have unreasonable expectations? I think not. I paid for 3 copies of the game, 2 for my friends and 1 for myself so I can get early access. I already have a 1.0 account. As of right now, I and my 2 other accounts have been able to play the game for all of about 3 hours in the last 36 because of login issues, maintenance issues or whatever. This is unacceptable. I am a paying customer who is not receiving the service that I paid for.

I can handle minor glitches but game breaking ones such as NOT BEING ABLE TO PLAY and glitches that prevent any sort of character advancement are definately inexcusable. FIX THIS ASAP and give UPDATES!

Cant everyone create characters on japanese servers too? just to break them as well, so they might fix this problem once and for all....
And tbh. this is exactly the same problem v1 had when it launched, the only reason it solved itself was because people stopped playing altogether. Don't expect a fix, SquareEnix does not even know whats wrong/how to fix it.
