The server is full, try again later (1017)

[Matrinka]

I'm really curious what the average waiting time is before players are able to log in. I've only been going at it for a little over an hour, and I'm already going crazy!

I don't understand why limiting the number of people who can log in to a server has anything to do with removing the ability to queue. I'm understanding of problems and don't mind waiting to play, but having to actively try to log on every few seconds is a waste of my time. If there was a queue and the estimated time was 5 hours I'd be totally ok with that because at least I could plan my time out and go read a book or something. It's also not really fair that someone could get in on their first try, ahead of some unlucky person that's been trying for 10 hours straight.

I don't care if we're given a sympathy gift at the end of this debacle, but I do think that we should be given free server transfers. A lot of people are playing without their friends right now due to server locks and restrictions, and some people are playing on JP servers too. Neither of those things are good for the community.

I got back into the game, after maintenance, for about 10 minutes until the servers went down again. As of right now, I've been trying to login off and on for the past 8 hours or so. I'm giving up and going to bed early, to make up for the sleep I lost this morning, waking up early to play the game.

Unable to access the Mandragora World.

[Affected Worlds]
- Mandragora

This is the greatest part I seen this in the forums it is a newer post I had to check something is this a jp server...? Well go figure it is. Great they cant log into server 5mins later it is fixed! Na/Eu cant log in hrs and hrs ppl trying it still is not fixed maybe theres was a easy fix or maybe it jumped right to the front of fixing it b4 addressing the issue with Na/Eu players being able to get in just thought it was awesome that this issue was taken care of so orderly and we are left in the dark waiting for whenever they decide they want to get our servers together.
Regards

Thus far, I"m not terribly impressed with the Operations side of this game. the game itself is beautiful and fun.. for the few hours I've been able to enjoy it. I've been unable to get in for 7-8 hours now, with 1017 errors on Leviathan.

I truly hope this turns around quickly, or I will not bother with a monthly subscription.

edit: oops, said able, when I meant UNable

Guys, pelase read:

"We have confirmed that the issues on the North American/European data center Worlds have resurfaced. Therefore, we have placed a severe login restriction in order to stabilize the servers.

While you may continue to have a difficult time logging into the game, please note that the issue is being addressed, and new updates will follow as additional information becomes available.

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

[EDIT]
I was stuck on the error 10102 and 90000 error. Then after maintenance they did the restriction.. oh well.

Is that hard to make a queue to the players. That will help with the refreshs on the mainscreen.

I already saw this queue before, but i thing it´s bugged.

I payed for the game for this? REALLY?

[Sparkster]

Meh, just because something is a cliche doesn't mean that it's not true. I figures if we were going to have a complaining thread, you guys can complain about "deceptive advertising", and I can complain about you!

Also, the game launched and worked for a short time on launch day. So they fulfilled their promise. Find me the small print that says that you will enjoy 100% uptime during the game's active duration and I think you may have a case. ;P

I wonder if it's possible for them to at least fix the queue issue. If I have to sit in a queue on a new game fine, but I want the queue to work and not drop randomly. Players are less frustrated when they know how long they have to wait instead of being messed around and dropped from a line up. Mind you, when it's a players turn it would be super awesome for the game to load too, and not give a "connection to server lost" error, only to return you to the main screen and make you mash log in again until something happens. :\

Getting 1017 on Adamantoise right now, have been since I got home 20 minutes ago.

This is one long thread of complaints about the issue - and its one that I sincerely hope SE gets squared away.
