Same issue here, which is a shame since I got up extra early on a weekend (7am EST) to try to avoid all the peak hour issues. Was doing fine till about 7:30am EST where I got DC'd and have since been stuck in Error 2002 limbo

Running as administrator seemed to do the trick

Soon. Maybe even next week soon. I estimated 1 month from early access, but hopefully those new servers announced Will clear it all up. I almost hope they take a month though. It would get rid of all the self entitled children that have been flaming up the web recently.

you realise thats it those "self entitles children " who are giving a ton on bad revievs atm all over the net , its not 2005 anymore game cant afford itself to have bad revievs on the net to survive , they said themselves its probably their last chance and atm its terrible fiasco - will the situation be better in a month ? probably - will all those players float away to other mmorpgs which are f2p a without any issues liek this - most definetly - they want to base on subscriptions to make income not on initial sales and in this moment the more time they loose the less people are likely to subscribe . people are not idiots - well maybe i was cause i bought this without checking internet revievs but if u type FF XIV iinto google first thing which catches eye is more and more negative comments - no game can afford itself this especially game which was awaited liek this - they knew people were interested into this and failed horribly - dont know how itsi n NA but in EU if product u buy is bad/faulty u have 7 days to return it and seller is obliged to return u money - here product is working its servers are at fault - this is why many unhappy customers even if they wanted to return it to shop have no right to do it - and are pissed liek hell about it ><

Went from the 2002 no lobby to getting In but no n.a./eu and then no jp and spamming against the 1017. Now back to the beginning. Pretty sure the servers are going to take a dump soon. I love how some people say things like "this isn't 2005 anymore", as if 2005 was this distant past where everything was so different (really shows their age). I'm sure SE will do just fine since they were expecting to make a profit from far less players than they have now and will have after the impatient children leave in droves.

Same on PS3 I hoped playing the game today without errors. Last week has been a hell, needed to registrate again because of the pre-order and normal registration. Costed me 2 hours to figure that stuff out and then i just threw the game away because it was to late to play it anymore. It is ridiculous and i still have to write a review about it.. Inmagine how it will come out.

Ditto - I don't even know why I post to threads when there are problems. I sometimes think SE only reads the JP forums since that is all I read in the News on the Loadstone lately = getting very bitter

I am also alternating between no active start button then 2002 lobby error and no US/EU server list ....
