I did a 36 hour run as well, but not because of queue specifically, just because I was so close to the end and figured why go to sleep, let's just stay up and keep going lol. Then within the last handful of msq had to take breaks in between, was too emotional.
I'm new to ffxiv. Really started enjoying it a few weeks ago. I've become so sick of the q times I've since given up and have moved to another game. Really enjoy burning money! A few days is one thing but It's just old now. I'm sure I'm not the only one.
Meanwhile Blizzard would be like: "I missed the part where that's my problem!"
An important note: Packets are lost all the time in internet communications. Things happen along the path, and data can become garbled or destroyed by interference in transit. This is fairly rare just going off of how many packets reach their destination safely, but because of the sheer amount of packets and data that get sent out, it becomes a common occurrence due to the law of averages. Developers know this, and they generally put some amount of contingencies for packet loss, but those contingencies can still fail. Them telling people to get off wifi is just all they can really do, because a wired ethernet connection is more likely to not get packet loss than a wifi connection, at least from the client's side. If people are still losing packets at that point, it's an isp issue, and they don't want to tell people "get better internet" for obvious reasons.
And good GOD, do they need those new servers and datacenters!
for me the queue time is brutal! I get off @ 6p pst and the queue on my data center is always at 6k+.
Solution: WoW leases out their dead servers to FFXIV.
We would love a South América datacenter.
They need to add a new server for the NA severs/data centers so all us NEW players can transfer ASAP. There is almost no downside for new players and lots of upside. I’ve been playing on Faerie and while the community is fantastic it all means nothing if most of my gaming time is all spent in a queue which as of this Tuesday 12/15th are still around 4000 ppl by 4 pm and increase to 5K later on. Those 4K and 5K queue’s are about 2 1/2 hours of waiting even by 3pm it’s already 1500 ppl which is an hour . So obviously if you are mostly doing nothing but queue waiting then transferring is the best option. They need to open at least one new world to transfer to its pretty clear now .
P.S. Thanks for the update guys and yes 2002 error is frustrating which I get several times along with the 4K queue (I’m on high speed cable 300+ Mbps and wired connection like every pro gamer) if not for this I would at least be able to go do some errands or get in a 1 hour jog , I’m ok with that sometimes BUT it pretty much negates any chance of getting in any catch up play without losing a nights sleep and we shouldn’t need to do that. SE needs to pony up some money and just buy the dang new servers god knows they have the money and there is hardware available now.
growls I thought this was a fresh statement, not a rehash of something 3 days old.
Sony should've allowed the game on xbox. Microsoft wouldn't have this problem. One of American trillion dollar companies
2002 is NOT due to the persons Wi-Fi/packet loss. Someone on Reddit has already debunked this.
Re: your comments on EU data centers and queues, let me put it this way, I started 3 years ago, mid stormblood on Zodiark server, at the time it was a preferred server aka underpopulated. The data center split has happened since then and if I try to log in at primetime now it's a 4-5k queue lol.
Yeah this really sucks. I have a job and a family and don't have the time to just wait on 4 hour ques.
I hope they fix this soon or I'm gonna have to unsub. This is sad because I just recently unsubed from WOW due to the horrible frat bot shenanigans going on there.
So I just started playing FF14 and this happens. Please fix this I really like the game and it would suck to have to unsub because I don't t want to pay for a game I can't even log into.
Listen all this is all had to me been playing this game for 20 something years now seeing so many new releases and expansion in login issues I don’t even deal with it anymore if I log on and there’s a Q maybe I’ll wait for it if I have something else to do or whatever otherwise I’ll just go play another game
My problem with SE's answer for 2002 is that many of my friends keep having this problem. How do you justify a group problem where people are at many locations as being packet loss? I think there's something else going on beyond the answers they describe. They might not know what the specifics are, but I think there's a third reason. It's frustrating, but I think it's getting better.
I'm jealous of Chris's ponytail game
I'm envious of Brian's glorious mane
Thats cool they are bring in more servers. THe ques on my realm have gone down. I just logged out and attempted to logg back in and the que is 3k at 9:55pm ( eastern) Usually at this time i cant even get the launcher to log me into the lobby. SO people are completing the MSQs and taking a break!
new data center for SEA bros
Thing is the packet lost makes no sense though how is that it’s our internet’s fault. It’s honestly from their end that issue is coming from not to sound rude, but if they only increase the cap up 21,000 then their server is losing the connection from the person to the server and it’s mainly having do to it the capacity space. They literally described it there. Sorry if I miss-understood it but from what you guys said sounded like they were saying it was our fault and not their service.
should of done that along time ago knowing they had millions of people join in the last few months
Ya, I work nights and I have no chance of getting into the game. Luckily, got a ps5 and am gonna try remote play to log into que before I go home. With 12 hours between shifts I can’t sit in a que for over 5 hours. Did that last week on a day off….wasn’t fun.
The “log in on a different world” option is really handy, but I’ve noticed that the option, even though it’s clickable, will not work if you cannot load your character data. I’m on Behemoth and the world gets really congested so most of the time I never am able to load my character data. I’m on the ps4 and it may be a problem specifically to that, but regardless it forces me to be stuck in 2-3 hour long queues that have a good chance to 2002 when I get home from work. ; o ;
I login before I go to the gym in 3hrs and I back my queue around 900..
We can’t deny SquareEnix and Yoshi P. aren’t working to fix the issue. 😅 I just need to remember patience is a virtue! 😁😋 Has it only been 8 days? Wow. 😳 Felt like much longer lol. But I won’t complain. 👀 Looking forward to checking all your playtimes once I’m finished with the MSQ. 😊😘 Stay safe. ❤️
What is irking my last nerve is getting booted off. 4days running and getting booted mid play. Yesterday logged in played. Got booted and waited in a 2k q only to get booted 10mins later after I finally get back in game. This stuff needs to be fixed. Had no issues before endwalker. Do not tell me it's my internet. Amazing no other issues internet wise.
