When launching Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn, I will log in through the launcher as normal. But when I am presented with the In-Game Main Menu, the option "Start" is darkened and remains darkened until I am presented with a black screen displaying the following error message:

"The lobby server connection has encountered an error"

A button with "OK" is all that is left to select and it takes me back to the launcher where I must insert my credentials again.

This entire process is repeated twice more before the option "Start" becomes available again and when I finally get passed it, I am presented with only the JP world list. The US/EU World lists displays "Unable to obtain World List".

*Bump*

I don't see a problem with this as I might as well hang out on the forums since I can't play the game. Sure there's nothing wrong with that

And a one and a two and a *bump bump bump*. Fix my problems.

Read the forums, dude. Everyone is experiencing the same problem. Short term solution is to play JP servers.

I already made a post to go to JP servers lol. I'm more concerned about the lobby error than the actual list not appearing, i'm already expectant of that error.

Since this is an actual technical support problem, and not a rant about refund or credit for server transfers, etc, I'm bumping so it doesn't get forgotten.
