Nice to see they can't list times correctly on the maintenance posts... Extending time to 9:30am on 8/25.... Um, it is past that time in every US zone. PDT is 12pm currently... So yeah :(
derp
Limitation is bullsh*t, if you cant handle everyone on your servers then no one should be able to play. The point of an mmo is to stay in touch with other players, how am I remotely staying in touch with people who will get a huge headstart on me?

Yeah you read it wrong. They were listing the time of the maintenance. Granted they really didnt need to do that.

Zekh... Just no...

They had an additional maintenance after the one they listed.
doesnt matter if they get a headstart.. Levelsync is your friend :P
i dont want to hear any complaints.. i am in japan trying to play on a us server at 4 in the a.m.
It is the company's responsibility to provide the needed service for its customers. There is no way they weren't prepared for all these users. The company knows how many pre-orders are out there and you have to assume that every pre-order will be attempting the early access. So you should've been prepared for that number and then some. To have this difficulty logging in is a sham and a failure.
Every MMO has a rough start. and this isnt even offical Release.
A Failure would of been.. bliizards error for diablo.. that took them forever to fix. Or.. Better yet, Rift.
Please don't compare these problems to Error 37. They aren't even on par with each other. Error 37 affected some not all of the players.
Misker. You need to realize a couple things.
1) SE doesn't have an office in NA to host servers Eidos is currently hosting them I do believe.
2) Eidos has never had something this big So they didn't expecting it.
3) if EVERYOINE that had beta invites tested the game instead of waited for there to be no character wipe this issue would have been found a LONG time ago. its part the fault of beta testers too.
Not everyone that pre-ordered was able to get into the betas. Having a beta for 48 hours once a month is not a good way to test things, especially stress tests. The number of queries for login and duties should not be a surprise. SE could've informed Eidos of the intended amount of usage. It's called planning, something SE is not good at.
Actually, given the amount of time and the fact the beta tests were on the weekends it was. But a lot of people didn't care unless their characters got saved so they didn't bother. They sent out over 1 million beta invites. I strongly doubt more than that pre-ordered.
I'm not going to complain or throw a fit over something so trivial.
Early access is NOT official Release. NDAs are still in effect until the official launch of the game.
Official launch is on the 27th.
And given the amount of work SE is doing to try to correct the issue I won't have a problem waiting. I'm patient.
SE is trying to fix it, Unlike every F2P MMORPG in the world. Pay to play ones actually try
So is maintenance on right now or not? Says the server list is not accessible.
When it does that its SE trying to find the actual solution.
I'd wish I'd be in a 1000+ people Queue rather than 1017 world is full... At least I'd knew I'd get into it at some point lol.
I just wanted to make sure that the servers were down and it wasn't a weird bug.
HA! You're right. I've seen some crazy queue's before, and I would prefer 1k than 1017 too. xD
7 hours later....., :), same thing. I just want a heads up about whats going on. I am not upset or what not, especially since the servers are getting cruched and this is expected. Just curious about the issue and a relative time frame.
