2013/08/25 19:06 Login Limitation After Emergency Maintenance (Aug. 25): Follow-up 3

[UnrealTai]

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.
------------------------
Thanks for telling us something we already knew, how about some real info and a realistic freaking time frame for new hardware to get added or servers with migrations.

LOL! If the last one wasn't severe I'd hate to see what severe looks like.

[Lucas_Cade]

So, in order to fix the servers they are just going to lock people out??? Good plan

I guess when(or if) you get in, never log out

1 person a minute can logon, max 100 players on the server.

LMFAO wow.... SE have no concept of severity so far, if them login restrictions ive had all day getting on once every hour and if I zone, or summon retainer or click market board I get kicked but I guess that isn't classed as severe. Just small little obstacles huh SE

HOW TO FIX SERVERS, BY SE DEVS

Keep reducing number of people who can play until the game runs... at least for the small amount who are able to play, then suspend the rest of the players in login limbo.

Yeh.....killer idea...... why didn't any other company ever think of that. If a server is congested don't let people play, its fool-proof

[Nihility]

so the solution to people being unable to play is not allowing people to play
and consequently getting your login server hammered by thousands of people spamming it desperate to get in game

sort of feels like the solution will just make the problem worse, why not close the server and fix the problem if you know what it is?

the one time i did get in today just got error 90000'd trying to leave the inn room...

edit: what the heck are the people that got ingame even doing anyways if you can't even change zones or interact with other people? shut it down and fix the damn thing already, at least people would accept that

[Kiroh]

LOL! If the last one wasn't severe I'd hate to see what severe looks like.

Three characters on the same server who, according to the game, are all already logged in at the same time, because fuck logic.

That's what the new restrictions look like.

[Puppet-]

sooo do we know when we can log on? or do we just have to keep trying?

[Drako]

Why does it read as though they just discovered this was a issue again? Me and my GF haven't been able to login once all day. We started trying about 8am CST. crazy. I guess they should of listened to the players during OB, you need to extend beta, so we can test and make sure its working. Instead of "oh ya man, got this bug fixed no problem" and go on with the launch. Ugg I remember this same nightmare at the start of the old FFXIV, and FFXI. And As others have mentioned every other MMO. So I guess we'll just have to cut away from the game and do something else. I've been working a game I've had on my list of games to complete *before launch of FFXIV* anyhow, so this is giving me that opportunity. But I can't stop myself from checking every 30 mins, cause like everyone I've been giddy and excited, eagerly awaiting this game to finally hit, so I'm so desperate to play. I spent the last week in agony waiting for this game like I'm a 5 year old boy going to bed on christmas eve. Ugg lol.

This is the part that worries me a little. They're conditioning people to AFK in-game as a roudabout to the login restrictions, which then affects anyone that logs off because of work/school/sleep.
