The World is Full

[Grim_Lion]

Its 6:13am and the world is full already.

Its time to take this game down until the servers can handle all the people.

This is simply unacceptable to buy any product and not be able to use it when you like.

I agree, feel lucky you get that at all, hell, I cannot even bring up the (start, character data nothing) simply error 2002......at it for the second day in a row I suppose.

What about everyone else who is online and having fun?

[hamsteak]

What about everyone else who is afk at an aetheryte?

fixed that for you

[Luda]

fixed that for you

Clever.

Now if everyone was just logging in to go AFK. well.. i don't understand why people are complaining about not getting in if this game is just about going AFK at an aetheryte?

A lot of people aren't actually playing, they're AFKing over night.

It's getting ridiculous and I've been patient since early access. I'm getting 90k when I get into the game to play while AFKers aren't kicked out. Plus I'm also getting the 2002 lobby error, NA/EU worlds not available, getting in a queue and then it tells me I've lost connection to the server and of course the world is full. But it's not only these now...I'm also getting launcher errors. The launcher fails to load and errors out. What.

I agree that they should have had extra servers ready to go, if needed. They had the 3102 error in open beta that I have no doubt was, in part, by overloaded servers. They should have known then that they needed to prepare extra servers.

After they finally solved that mess, the extended open beta from 0200-0800 here on the west coast if the US. Hardly peak playing times. They never really allowed themselves time to fix the error and conduct a decent stress test. They should have run at least one more 24 hour period after the 3102 fix just to see how the servers would hold up.

Finally, S-E had to know how many preorders they had. They had to have some idea what the population was going to be like for early access! The "we underestimated" argument sucks balls and jus doesn't ring true at all'

S-E has done everything they can to shoot themselves in the foot at every single opportunity. Connectivity is bad, customer service is worse.....and those Twitter messages that the log in issues have been resolved? Give me a break!

This morning as I type this, I'm getting repetitive 1017 errors. Three times now, I've gotten to a loading screen, only to get server connection is lost. Unbelievable! This has been an atrocious launch, and anyone saying otherwise is flat lying to themselves!

Its as simple as the title says: AFKERS will be banned. Because of the current server stability afking to "hold a spot" is making it unplayable for other people. In the Terms of Agreements that everyone accepted it states this:

3.2 Disruption. You may not in any way disrupt or interfere with the Game experience of otherplayers, including the disruption of Square Enix’s computers and servers

So I would suggest people start logging out, because there's a large number of people starting to report AFKERS. Good luck.

A lot of people aren't actually playing, they're AFKing over night.

It's absolutely true.

I was looking at the sanctuary zones in Balmund during US early hours (~10am my time, in Europe), and on average I was counting ~12 or more people at each sanctuary just sat, afk. I'd go over and start poking them and doing silly stuff to them to illicit a response and most just sat there staring dead ahead, or maintaing their sit idle.

I, nor any of my 30 Friends all on one of the most popular servers have had ANY of those errors or problems.
