Stormblood Early Access - The Revolution Will Not Be Organised

[Crystal Chronicler]

Oh, that's on my To-Do list as well. Have a toymaker to create and level on Mateus.

 

I'm gonna level a healer or tank alt. Once the DF is fixed I'll be swimming in more duty than a Sewage Waste Management Specialist!

Nothing better than our ol' pal Error 90k kicking people out and placing them at the back of a 500 person queue!

I crai everytiem

 

Thankfully roulettes are resetting soon, so at least I get to do that... GFDJFDHJFD

[ShoggMommy]

;_; off to work to photograph old books and to perform OT because of deadlines. Soon... though... soon (not really).

[Crystal Chronicler]

It looks like they found the issue preventing the use of MSQ, Job, and DF instances and have applied a temp fix. Lighter pop servers should be fine now. Unfortunately, servers with high congestion like Balmung still can't use instances.

I've actually been running instances all morning and haven't had an issue with the duty finder since right after launch.

Cherish those runs. Hold them close and never let them go.

[GhostlyMaiden]

 

We're waiting in line to get into one of the instances.

That's crazy. I hope its not as bad on Zalera.

Time to go do something else.

[Lydia Lightfoot]

 

That feeling when someone in front of you at a stop light dinked around just enough that you couldn't make it and had to wait through another red light cycle.

When is an expansion not and expansion, when they put a brick wall in

[Sriracha Quilt]

So I am patched up to date, waited through the queue, and got roughly five minutes of game time before a windows error popup showed up and I was promptly removed from the game. I am a first time early access player (if that were not obvious by how I am writing this, much less that I'm writing it at all)......but how long does this behavior tend to persist? Weeks?

 

I'm not upset, as I was warned well ahead of time that it would be unstable and generally chaotic. Just looking for a rough time estimate of how things went with ARR launch and HW launches. 

 

Loving the content thus far though for what little I did get of it. ^^

So I was one of the chosen ones, currently level 63 having zones all to myself

In reality, "Early Access" means "Stress Tests" in corporate marketing speak. They secure your cash and get free stress testing to boot. I suspect you won't see this start to smooth out for at least a week from Tuesday.

Very well. Thank you for the estimate. I shall resume attempts to enjoy the game at that point in time.

There is notice up about the problems with the MSQ bottleneck problem

I mean all of this chaos is giving me some time to also get my gatherers up which is ni- 

 

/gets disconnected 3 times in "rapid" (20 min queueueueueues) succession whilst fishing 

 

/flashback to that one time that guy went fishing in upper la noscea & crashed Balmung for days

 

.. I'm just going to put.. The fishing pole down. If I get back in. 

 

(As I was typing this my client crashed in the queue) 

(And now I got back in without a queue????)

I had the same experience of that quick return back in.

 

Oh and don't forget you will eat up your XP bonus on whatever you level.

It reminds me of when 2.0 launched, though not quite as bad. Then, it was a good month after launch before I was able to really play the game without being booted.

It's giving me Warlords flashbacks from when I played warcraft. They even had some terribly placed quest roadblocks related to instancing issues!

[Gegenji]

Okay, NOW it's starting to remind me of HW. I got DC'd trying to load a quest (seeing if I could finally do that second SAM quest), which was followed by a lobby error when trying to reconnect to the server... and now any attempts to get back in are causing MORE lobby errors. And I'm stuck having to relaunch the launcher, get into the main menu screen, watch it lobby error out again, and go through that entire loop again and again.

 

Sure is fun. Especially considering I've had nothing but a few lag spikes and the long queues up until this point. Seems the game thought I was having it too easy.
