Game can apparently only have so many instances and it's an instanced quest early in the chain.

Can confirm still busted on Brynhildir. Are they even trying to do something about it?

Or... wait, does it work in the Japan servers? I have a mind to say that they gonna take the problem nice and slow for us in NA and maybe EU if Japan is working fine. Yep, I said it, I think they don't very much care for us if their Japan audience is doing fine.

If its also not working on the Japan side then what the heck are you doing, SE?! Get to fixing this!

They posted a few hours to say it's working as intended and they could raise the instance cap, but they won't

Early access is a disaster. All data files are corrupted and the game is being rolled back to 1.23b.

I'm surprised with the game mechanics they already have in place that instanced quests can't support their own queues natively.

Hell, when I played anyway, even though bcnm and dynamis were instanced there was only one said instance. Gotta schedule your dynamis around other linkshells and wait in line at the burning circle.

When i first looked at that screenshot in the timg I though it was the bridge area on the western side of the South Shroud and the line had spanned both areas.

99% of the people are standing right on top of the npc.

Instanced fights the the MSQ are generally great, so the idea is cool and good, just should have thought about the server capacity.

Heh, this early access which exists to specifically test the servers prior to launch is having server issues, what a bunch of idiot loving morons.

Trying to choose between rdm and Sam is the most difficult decision I've ever had to make, they're both extremely well done. Phone it in on one next time yoship please

Bard has entered the fray as a contender too. The renewed focus on songs is really good and the fruity flute thing that replaced swift song is really satisfying too

Yeah, taking off work today would be a pretty silly mistake.

That's why I took time off during next week, when I'm sure all of this will be fixed. :smuggo:

If those one hundred people gave your $50 to come over for dinner they may expect some food.

This argument is pretty stupid as both sides have a point.

It's not worth it to pay for a massive server increase for a day or two of increased population. Six months from now, no one is going to give a poo poo about this first day congestion.

Touch of Death, MNK potency, and the ability to cross-class B4B. :rip:

Twin Snakes going from 5% to 10% damage helps offset the potency loss on MNK moves at least. Sorta. Maybe.

On the other hand, Internal Release jumping to 30% and all of that melded Accuracy turning into Direct Hit softens the blow a bit. The first TK I landed today hit for 15K.

I'd like to say how effective the level 62 trait is but I can't get into the drat story instance and I'm not going to spend all day FATE farming just to level in the meantime. :orks:

Gonna go back to leveling SAM when I hop on later tonight I suppose. Not like that dumb instance will be easily accessed anyways.
