Currently Square is working tirelessly on bringing up more data centers and servers to acommodate the massive amount of people who purchased and are intending to play the game, as a result a lot of the servers are closed to both character creation and log ins. The nice thing is that most of you should be able to get on JP servers if you can't get on NA servers (It plays just as smooth, if not better). However, if you've already created a new character on one of the NA/EU servers then here's a tip for you all to logging in. Congestion hours are highest between 1:00PM( EST) -12:00AM (EST) After this period I advise you to log in either around 3:00AM or early morning 8:30~9:30 AM (EST) and just keep your character logged in. There is currently no system in place that boots players for inactivity [other than an unstable internet connection xD].
Bear with them as they work on this problem I know it can be frustrating but 150,000 people logged in at once during beta 4 [World Record]. We should acknowledge that they didn't expect this many people. I'm even quite surprised to hear of this myself. Most MMOs don't accommodate this many people at once its no wonder there's been a slew of login and server related issues.
For those of you who were able to play
Server: Diabolos
IGN: Nodoka Miyazaki.
See you in Eorzea fellow gamers ! more coverage on other games to come soon. I think however, FFXIV will absorb me and all aspect of my life xD
PS: If you are afraid you wont be able to play with friends, just be aware that Square has already slated that world transfers will be available mid September.
