i need to add subtitles, but essentially, he cant get in, then gets a queue, then hits 1017, so on n so on............
We cant get in, its a fail on Enix's part, Square failed totally on pretty much everything after merging with them, they just can't help it now, too bad they've lost a ton of subscriptions from what was claimed to be an "early access" where nobody could log in, to now...... where they still cant log in, so sad...

And this needed yet another wasted thread, why exactly? Just needing to feel like a special snowflake?

I am sure a ton of them will come back when SE fix everything. Many people just want to play.

nope totally unneded, just like the error 1017, they could easily apply a fix for us, but we arent in japan, so we dont matter

So... been trying since 3:00pm EST to login. Have they just completely turned off logins or are they "limiting it" Is the "should be fixed next week" post for real? I'm very frustrated to say the least. The game is awesome, but the servers... wow.

There is a post at the top of this section explaining everything.

yes, the servers for us are awful, and ya log to JP servers and there is no prob, even on the most populated, racism never seemed so obvious

"The development and operations teams are currently concentrating 100% of their efforts into the aforementioned tasks and are on pace to have both completed by the beginning of next week and then released to the public once our final tests have concluded. Once a date and time for the implementation of the measures have been solidified, we will release another announcement on Lodestone outlining the details. We ask that you bear with us for just a few days longer while we make the final push."

So no more logins or will i eventually at least get a queue. My questions remain unanswered. So next week until i can log in again? I've never NOT been able to get in after about an hour, 6 hours just seems like there isnt even a chance. I mean, it's like I've been banned for not logging on earlier and refusing to log off... lol. Just showing some frustration in the hopes that I can play again Before and during the 3 day weekend :3

If the continued congestion is any sign, I'd say they really haven't lost many subscriptions to this. Launch problems happen, people know this. Yes it sucks and they did an awful job of communicating what was happening (I raged about this on the forums too) but they have announced their intended solutions to a problem they acknowledged existed. The JP servers are having issues too, login restrictions etc and I've seen the "unable to update jp servers" error plenty lately when logging in. Things will be better in a week when new servers are added.
