    No way can they concider leaving the limitation as it is right now .. If most EA user cant connect , think about everybody else who will buy this game tomorrow ..
    Guess what? That fucking limitation has been in place since about 4am PDT on Saturday. We are 6 hours away from official launch and end of Early Access and ITS STILL THERE. My guess is SquarePenis has decided to tell NA to go suck a dick.

    Guys, this problem is NOT going to go away. SquareEnix needs to do four things to solve the server congestion issues. Two of which they have made extremely obvious they have no intention of doing, and the other two they seem rather disinclined towards as well.

    First, remove the Error 1017 stating that the world is full. If the world is full, place the player in a queue and TELL HIM HOW DEEP IT IS. At this point players can either tab away from the game while they wait or choice to exit and go do something else.

    Second, implement an "away from keyboard" auto-disconnect such as is present in EVERY OTHER MMO. If the server does not receive a hardware control input from the client (via keyboard or mouse) for a set period of time (15 minutes seems to be average across most games, but exact length doesn't matter as long as it exists) then the server disconnects from the client with a message along the lines of "You have been logged out due to inactivity"

    Third, create new worlds for the NA/EU data center(s). As it stands all but 2 worlds were completely full last night, and with the actual launch tonight those two will fill up within hours, if not minutes. With the number of people receiving Error 1017 and the fact that 23 of the 25 worlds are full, I would probably consider adding at LEAST 10 new worlds.

    Finally, implement a way for players to move existing characters over to less populated worlds. Ideally this should also allow for group movement for people who are playing with friends and for professional gaming guilds who got broken up by the insane login and character creation limitations. This also needs to be FREE. It only needs to be in place and free for a week or so for the populations to balance out.

    If SquareEnix did those things their congestion issues SHOULD balance out to the normal level for a MMO launch, but I can't promise that it will, or even that SE will actually do what is needed.

    The things your asking them to do can't be implemented in less than a day, nor can they just magically make servers appear. They likely didn't think they needed a afk kicker which is dumb if you ask me but it is what it is. And the server transfer stuff isn't going to added until a few weeks from now. They screwed up, but it's not like they aren't trying to fix it.

    I'm sorry (not really, just like SquareTards) but no, they ARE NOT trying to fix it. They are doing little tweaks here and there and the occasional server reboot to try and pacify the NA/EU masses. That's it.

    Welcome to your first Online RPG. During times where a game receives more users than originally anticipated, minor tweaks to see the servers breaking points will absolutely be tested. You should probably expect this for the next 2-3 weeks. It's no different than any other MMO on the market, they all have their own annoying problems that gate people from playing one way or another. This game is no different, nor will the next 575237583 MMOs released.
