One more thing to add to the list of fail?

I either can't log in because too many people are online at once, or the NA/EU server list can't be loaded, or the world/character selection lobby won't work...

This is all following the whole incorrect region code I was issued (EU instead of NA) where I had to beg gamestop for a replacement code. These issues seem to be rampant. Why were these not addressed during the beta? Wasn't there enough "stress testing" to notice that something might be amiss? I really hope that these issues are resolved before you expect people to pay a subscription for this service. It is good enough to pay for right now. I have played for MAYBE an hour over this whole early access period. Which isn't enough to convince me I shouldn't get a refund on the money I put down on the game (full payment)... let alone pay you every month to keep playing.

SE... I don't understand how these things could happen. I know that you guys are trying to rush out the product on the release date... but if the game/servers aren't ready yet... then you are releasing a sub par product. There needs to be more accountability. Not just "we are doing our best." Clearly, your "best", is not good enough.

I wonder if it's more that there are waaaay more players than they anticipated, or something along those lines. Servers are so full they are often appearing as "down". In any case, Squeenix needs to get more servers >_<
