All worlds maint (Sept.3rd) ~ Tomorrow

[Mycow8me]

I'm kinda worried. It only mentions adding new servers. What about the servers that are already way over capacity like legacy servers? I have a feeling they are going to expect us to start new characters or something and that's not going to happen atleast for me. I'm attached to my current one. If they don't offer free world transfers afterwards, they are just asking for more trouble. Basically by only adding more servers they are allowing themselves to go back to selling the game for more money and leaving the ones that have already purchased it in the dark.

Get ready for a giant ragefest on Wednesday.

- Implementation of countermeasures to handle the influx of concurrent user counts as a result of split processing the duty finder
- Address several known issues

The main issue isn't so much that "the world is full". It's more that 300k concurrent users ( people logging in at the same time) which is cause the servers ( and lobby), to have what I call "A meltdown" ( of course not physically lol). Yes Adding more worlds will help spread people out.

- Implementation of countermeasures to handle the influx of concurrent user counts

Another words upgrade the servers so that they can handle the concurrent users trying to login at the same time.

- Address several known issues

Not sure what they are, but i'm 99.9% sure it's server related ( maybe add an AFK kick, a Better queue system?).

It could be for over 3 days and I wouldnt mind, just as long as shit gets fixed.

Lol. Way to go Square ! A maintenance right on the peak hours for NA/EU. Now we know what to expect: Priority on their JP players. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if us, NA/EU players, would be experiencing the same issues as soon as the maintenance is over...

It Goes Through JP Peakish Hours To, But i'll be napping thru it

Sounds nice.

I bet you when servers are back up the, you still wont be able to login, it will just be a different error code....

If they take it down for ten hours and I get a SINGLE 1017 after this I am going to rage SO hard. I've never been so frustrated at a game before. After being locked out for ten hours two days ago and then seven hours trying to login today I'm going to be so done if I can't login the next day.

It better be fixed after this... Honestly, they could've seen it coming. It can't be changed now but I'm not happy with the excuses. I'm expecting a quick fix that actually works.

I've been playing since beta phase 1 and these problems are NOT new. Still don't understand why they're doing this now and not three weeks ago.

Now you can't even make a comment without the forum crashing or some error.
