Oh man, you're beginning to annoy me with that. You do realize the next one is "What do you expect, the game JUST launched! This is to be expected." You're not done yet!

Not necessarily, There's still a possibility of launch being pushed back because of all of this.

Even if this was a launch day issue, the past weekend would have been the smoothest launch I've ever participated in. I'm disappointed that I won't be able to log in as I find myself with a little bit of time, but you know what...it's not the end of the world. We're not paying for this, I've enjoyed my time with the game so far, so this hiccup will go down as such.

SE knows that this is very high profile, they know what kind of impact it can have on the success of the game. Nothing that they've done since ARR hit beta makes me believe they ignoring this issue, sitting in front of the TV watching movies. So, keep an eye on Twitter if you can't get into the beta forums and grab some breakfast.

It's a bummer that alot of us can't play, But that's what beta was for, finding these problems. We sure found 3102... Destroyed their forums..

The statement they released said that they were aware of the problem and that the fix had already been implemented. That was yesterday afternoon. Since then, the weight of 600 pages of ********** you it isn't fixed" caused their entire beta forum to collapse. The last everyone knows, SE thinks they resolved the issue.

Yeah, I'd say it's time to speak up...

Also something to keep in mind, Catwho, when I read the twitter feed, I interpreted it as they were addressing the error 90000 problem, not the error 3102 problem.

It's entirely possible if not probably the two are related, but throwing a boilerplate "The issue is being addressed" only muddied the waters, really.

The two are very likely related. Error 90000 occurs when entering or exiting a CS or instance, or zoning. The server is not getting the message that you were disconnected during that zone/instance, leading to error 3102.

These are just the twitter posts. When you followed the link in the bolded above you would have seen the official post which followed the same format you'd see in the 'Information' section of The Lodestone. I don't remember the exact wording and the link above just takes you to the broken forum, but it was something to the effect of

'We are pleased to announce that the issue has been resolved. Please restart the client program and attempt to login again. We apologize for any inconvenience that this issue has caused.'

They thought they fixed it but they didn't. After that post, nothing. Regardless, both issues are still unresolved.

I don't need compensation or anything like that, although an apology would be nice. This is still a Beta, despite some people wanting to call it a soft launch or whatever. Its unpaid time, so while disappointed, I'm not that peeved.

However, once early access starts, that is something we have paid for. You cannot go live with this issue still persisting. I've been locked out since midnight eastern time yesterday, I have people in my guild locked out since Friday night. You cannot have subscribers locked out of the game for hours when its not a servers are down issue. And it doesn't look like a simple reset fixes this either. And even if it did, are you gonna keep resetting the servers every time someone d/c's?

This is not a race, so I am not looking for a wipe. I don't care if people fortunate enough to not be affected get ahead. But, this is critical enough where you can't launch in 8 days without this being fixed. I don't know if 8 days is long enough to identify the problem and fix it, but I hope it is.

Also, it is SE, so you can't be surprised, but they really need better communication with their non JP customers. Official forums are down, Lodestone has nothing and the last twitter update is, "New worlds being added" 6 hours ago. People who are now waking up to this issue have no official avenue to at least have it acknowledged as being worked on?

To be fair, even Yoshida said that phase 4 was basically a free trial.

Most people who have experienced open betas before know that the actual launch version of the game is nearly identical with the exception of some polish(configuration, menus, ect.) and the lifting of limitations like level cap, quest limits and the like. It was no different with FFXIV 1.0 and I doubt it will change much now with ARR. "It's just a beta" doesn't work this late in the game.

I think it's a little premature to cancel a pre-order just yet, but honestly I'd only give them until the end of open beta. They haven't fixed the issue and they haven't set an estimated time to have it fixed which leads me to believe they have no clue what is wrong. If I had a pre-order(I don't) and they hadn't solved the problem prior to the end of open beta I would cancel too.

I think it would be nice if they extended to beta until they get this issue resolved because if this persists once the game goes live an error like 3102 could cost them a serious number of subscriptions.

Me and my wife have been locked out since yesterday, and additionnaly it took us something like 4 hours just to be able to roll on Ultros.

Yet, canceling my pre-order didn't even occur to me. Yeah I'm a bit pissed off, I'd like to be playing now. But I know the game is fun, and those are just bugs. I know they'll fix them eventually. Then I'll have a blast playing.

locked out for about 12 hours, wish I knew what was going on. I loved the comment about about wishing they communicated better with the NA base.

Had my friend take 12 hours to get on our same server, and my wife took 7 hours. Another friend still hasn't been able to at all.

I don't doubt how much fun we'll have once they nail all this down, but with all the disappointment and frustration, can we at least communicate better? How hard are updates to twitter?
