The server is full, try again later (1017)

[Soffker]

Welp, My internet went out and now im stuck in world server is full! Looks like i wont be getting on again tonight. Whoever took my spot on Behemoth! I hope you have fun!

I find it hilarious that they were able to fix the congestion on their web server but not their play servers. I guess they like seeing more people complaining than playing.

I bet their payment system is directly tied in with said web server...

That's nonsense. It's 2013. Server farms are scaleable. You lease what you expect to need, then add or remove machines as needed. If that's not how FFXIV works, then either their programmers or IT operations teams are morons. World of Warcraft made that virtualization switch over 7 years ago. Every MMO since has done so. TESO is using far superior world/realm-less design to keep the MMO and benefit from infrastructure of an action RPG.

Yet here we are... their cloud causes us all strife.

Just a heads up I will be logging in now every morning at 4am and leaving my character logged in all day so I can actually play after work in the evening.

Thanks for forcing me to do this.

Ironically, that's pretty much the only time I'm guaranteed to log in without a queue or the 1017 message. But I play and log off like a normal person would and should.

The ONLY thing we want to know at this point Yoshi is will the login restraints remain? If so, then how long or is it indefinite? If not, then when will they be corrected? The answer that you people have come up with to restrict login's is just beyond ridiculous at this point. Obviously the servers are not large enough to handle the number of players YOU allowed to be created on them. What do ya think is going to happen at Launch time? We players will only be able to log in rarely. We need concrete answers, no answer from the dev team just makes us players that have stuck it out thru all be beta phases and early access feel unimportant, frustrated and duped. Your timely response would be appreciated. Of course as I attempt to log in once again....1017

[Hakou]

im so sick of this shit, hell the only reason i had to log out was a ui glitch after zoneing and my spot wasent held on the server for 20 damn seconds. i have been 1017ed for the past 4 hours that includes getting into q's of 5 people only to get 1017ed again multiple damn times.

[kalomaru]

i finely got to play a little yesterday and it was awesome i like the game a lot but this logging prob makes me feel like what was the point of preordering the game

[Azmaria]

This is indeed highly annoying, they need an afk timer to kick people, about an hour and to just do something so people can play this damn game, I'm tired of having to just bang my head at the door and not even get a que.
