So the 1017 error.

[Vellen]

whats going to happen when the game is out of early access and more people start playing?

A very haunting idea, but is something to think about.

What destroys me the most is that I have put my faith (and money) on the line with this company in saying "I will pre-order." However, the things that come with the game (early access), you can't even get to work correctly. I won't lie, I love the game. Great graphics quality, gameplay, community, and basically all the things I have been looking for since WoW Burning Crusade.

But the customer service and promptness to get things fixed THIS CLOSE to launch is what bothers me so much. I initially knew there was going to be a problem when there was only a week between their phase 4 final open beta, and the official release. But come on. Many people have been sitting in front of their computers (most of them that have given you their money for the enjoyment of this game), stealing their time and money.

You need to implement an automatic log off timer for afk players, and you also need to raise the cap of your servers to the appropriate amount. You should have been able to over compensate for the amount of pre-orders you had coming.

Honestly, there is no excuse for this behavior and unprofessional-ism. This is closed beta crap that everyone is dealing with, not the first day of launch. You (the company) probably won't see this, but you need to get your heads straight and fix the things that should have been done months ago.

Can I transfer my character to a less crowded server? This is starting to really bug me. And before anyone gets bent out of shape, I spent a lot of time leveling (like many others) so "NO" I do not want to just reroll another toon on another server

I'm still getting this error...it worked this morning but now it's back again...what the flip?

[henrique]

This pretty ridiculous... I've lost half of the will to play this game...
And even if I don't care about getting a refund, which I probably won't, it's highly unlikely I'll pay a monthly subscription, even if they come to solve the issue.
I've had it... sorry, SE, but you crossed the line of failure.

Looks like World War 3 is going to start tomorrow and I'm going to be on the front lines facing this OP enemy "1017"

If you can find a server that is currently NOT locked to new character creation that is.

This whole 1017 error is a joke and really is a an absurd measure they have put in place. I can't remember any other MMO launch where I have simply been locked out of a game that is up and running with no eta on when I can get in to play. Other MMO"s have had issues but generally that's been in game and I've been able to log in to deal with them.

Launch day will be HORRIBLE.

it already is horrible, im not a EA player, and i just got in selected my character and getting this error on behemoth. At least the could add a queue and have a afk kicker, every other mmo has a afk kicker. And implement a mouse macro that replicates player activity to avoid afk kicker, banner.

During the 'early access' period I've gotten to play about 2 hours. I've probably wasted the same amount of time trying to log in. I don't want to whine about these issues, but it seems like SE is really dropping the ball on this one (even though I know many @ SE are working hard on this).

Don't want to sound like a dick, but honestly... this is pure garbage.

Very upset - Not many companies get a second chance, they are killing theirs.

1017 is an absolutely UNACCEPTABLE way of handling the demand for the game.... GIVE US QUEUES OR MORE SERVERS FFS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
