This morning, at 9:30 a.m., I receive a 1017. After 27 attempts to log in, I finally got in. This is not peak playing time. The only time I did get some serious playing time in was yesterday. I had to log in the am and leave my character on line or I wouldn't be able to play at all when I got home 5 hours later which made me feel horribly guilty. However, I paid for the service for 180 days this week, I paid for Early Access, I paid for the upgrade to collector's edition, so why should I? I refused to attempt log ins for 1-3 hours!! You now have over 100+ of my dollars. I was able to play so little during the early period, I want a refund on that in game time. It's not too much to ask. In fact, I believe everyone who paid for early access deserves game time compensation. You sold full access to a playable game and that isn't what I got. You now have even blocked sales entirely. My friends not yet on can't buy the game? I can't create a new character and try out some different looks. I can't play with my friends already here...we were all scattered to the winds. They can't make new characters on my server...I can't make new characters where they are. 1-3 days...ok. Working out bugs. This has been since Saturday. I see a projected new servers add for next week??? C'mon....that's absurd. I love this game. It's incredibly fun. It's the best game I think I have ever played to date. I play a lot of MMOs. I have guilds in two others. The launches of other games was rocky yes, but not this rocky. In fact, this is the most problematic launch I have seen in an MMO. I wasn't soured by 1.0. I tried it for a while, it was broken, I quit. Even after that, and being a loyal ffxi player for many years, and a SE fan.... ( I own every title you've ever released) I'd really like to enjoy it as it should be enjoyed. Your customers deserve better treatment, more frequent updates, and some deserve compensation. Please.
