Why did I buy this game if I cannot ever play it?

Most frustrating thing ever. I just want to level. Yet I consistently sit here for hours trying to get on.

It's going to be congested until the fixes are in place. If you don't want to fight for a spot on the server you should do something else for a while until the servers clear up.

Show me one statement informing me this is going to be resolved by Wednesday. I have yet to read where they are increasing server maximums from 5000 to 8000. If you can please direct me to this information I would be much obliged

I'm level thirty because I try for 2 hours to logg on every night. I work and I'm in college full time, believe me when I say that the 2 hours trying to get on every night is killing me.

1017 for 2 hours every night now.

Only 2 hours? Lucky you, I've been at this bs since noon and its going on 8:30 now. I actually did get on earlier, for about half an hour only to get 90k'd. I love how the people who actually want to play can't get on or if they do, they get d/ced, but the afk people can be on all day without a single 90k

This tells me that they are adding new servers and moving the duty finder servers into smaller groups to ease the congestion, I think you misunderstood, where did they say they were increasing individual server capacity up from 5000? That was the post i was looking for

I've gone over this twice, still can't find an increase on individual server capacity. Link me that sentence or paragraph please =)

I'm not sure where you're getting those numbers from?

Dear god Bahamut stop flooding the forums with this crap.

1017 and the queue system were implemented after the launch weekend because of the stress on the duty finder system and all the problems that popped up there. They started limiting server populations more strictly than they would otherwise. If they remedy the duty finder problem there should be little reason for 1017 and the queue to stick around. Add on that those that have just started playing and haven't invested much time into the game and are tired of congested servers may feel motivated to move to the fresh servers and free up space elsewhere.
