    Login Issue Update

     

    <blockquote restore="" "="">I know many of you are still affected by the World login and character creation restrictions, so I would like to give you all a brief update on the progress of the measures we are taking to alleviate this situation.

    Current Server Status

    To ensure as many players as possible can log in and create characters on existing servers, our development and operations teams are monitoring server load and population around the clock, placing and removing restrictions with even the slightest fluctuation in numbers in order to maintain near-full capacity on each World. We are still experiencing maximum concurrent connection numbers of over 230,000 users. This number, however, has taxed some of our instance servers, and is causing unexpected down time here, as well.

    Scheduled Maintenance for Wednesday, September 4 (Japan Time)

    The addition of new Worlds, as well as the adjustments to the duty finder servers, will be complete as of tomorrow. We will then enter our final internal testing phase of these features in preparation. If the results from these tests are favorable, we will conduct an extended all-World maintenance on Wednesday (Japan time). Once the new Worlds are implemented and the duty finder server load has been redistributed over smaller World server groups, we believe that many of the login issues that players are currently experiencing will clear.

    When Worlds do finally reopen after the maintenance, we expect a rush of players trying to log back in. To prevent any further login issues, we will be using the utmost caution when restarting each World. Please understand that there may be some congestion at this time.

    The development and operations teams are currently dedicating their full resources to alleviating the issues at hand and providing all of our players with a stable environment in which to experience the realm of Eorzea.

    Free Trial Extension

    To apologize to our loyal fans who may not have been able to login or create characters during early access and the days immediately following launch, the development and operations teams are currently considering providing all player accounts with an additional seven days to their free trials. This includes non-legacy players from 1.0, who will be given new seven-day free trials. Trial extensions will be awarded after the aforementioned server maintenance on Wednesday. Details on the trial extension, including the extension period, will be released in a separate post as soon as they have been solidified.

    We thank our fans again for the overwhelming support you have shown us over the past week. The response to FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn has well exceeded our expectations, and unfortunately resulted in our inability to provide the service which we originally intended. We humbly ask for your continued patience as we work to alleviate the issues as we truly appreciate all of our fans. We are very sorry for the frustration that has resulted from these problems.

    Tomorrow night. Sorry for the bad news but don't worry, even after we get past this there will always be drama.

    No, tomorrow night.


    And thats just when the servers will be taken down for maintenance. Which will be lengthy, Ive heard around 10 hours.


    Also, the servers will be a bit better when they are brought back up but not fully. They will slowly increase capacity over a few days so they dont overload the new server setup.


    So, if you're expecting some kind of miracle cure tomorrow then you will be disappointed.

    It always makes me laugh when things that could easily have been googled fall to you, the MMORPG'rs, to Google FOR them so they have an answer.  

    As they said, tomm night.  Will it fix the problems?  I honestly dunno.  Maybe.. maybe not.  But they'd better damned well do something or else lose some serious face.

    I am digging the game but there's obviously a problem.  To what extent? (shrug)

    WHY?!? WHY!?!? It was a MAJOR (North American) HOLIDAY...

    Well - at least you aren't completely locked out of your account in NA where customer service has been out for 3 days now.  

     

    ...Go to game client --> Enter Registration Code --> Click Next --> screwed for 4 days being unable to play.  Instead, you of course are supposed to log into the moogle site and click some cryptic button (not add service account!)....worst design I've experienced ever.  Still don't even know WHY someone would even want to create 2 service accounts with one square enix login on day 1.

    Well Tuesday evening for America...

    Its going to be interesting to see how things go.  I expect its going to take a while to get everything online and open to the public...

     

    If they increase the max connections to the current servers...and like double the available servers...its going to be very interesting to see what happens.

     

    I figure that the game probably has its near peak population right now...I really don't suspect that theres another couple hundred of thousands of people who will jump in and create round two of this mess.

     

    So how many new servers do they add...will increasing max connections to the current servers to alleviate their issues cause lag and stability?

     

    Like I said ill be surprised if the numbers for this game rise much more than they have now...but if for whatever reason im wrong...I just pray they have back up servers in storage ready to go...
