More info, and possible time table for the issues.

"[NA] Regarding the Instance-Related Issues (Aug. 24): Follow-up 2

The following is the current situation regarding the issue wherein players are unable to access instances.

After investigating the issue, we have identified that the following issues are currently occurring.

- Regarding the server in charge of connecting players to the instances.
We have confirmed an issue with the server in charge of connecting players to the instances. An overload on the servers caused a significant drop in performance. Therefore, we are currently making preparations to further optimizing the server. We currently estimate the operation to take about 30 minutes.

Fortunately, this process can be done without any sort of maintenance. We will be able to verify the performance of the server immediately after the optimization process is completed.

- Regarding the error 90000
We have confirmed an issue with the character data for certain players. These players currently will receive the error 90000 and not be able to access any instances.

We have been able to identify the cause of the issue, but the issue will require maintenance to address.

We plan on conducting emergency maintenance as soon as we complete the optimization process stated above.

We are currently concentrating all of our efforts to address this issue, so we appreciate your continued patience while we work to address this matter.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause"

I guess its too much to ask for their forums to work at least when there are issues with the game. You'd think after open beta's 3102 they would have beefed up the forums servers at least. Maybe they expect the population to thin out enough to avoid upgrading.

That's strange since it didn't sound like the issues were too large based on that post by Fennin. Maybe the 90000 error is pretty bad though?

It's funny you think there wouldn't be issues on launch day. WoW had them, Rift had them. Most MMO's have them.

I am also experiencing the 90000 issue listed above. However, I#ve just made a char on a JP server to play in the meantime instead of whining incessantly.

Enjoy your sandy underwear folks!

At the following time, we will be performing emergency maintenance. During this period, the Worlds listed below will be unavailable.

As we previously announced on the "Regarding the Instance-Related Issues (Aug. 24)" announcement, we will be conducting maintenance to address the issue wherein players are unable to access instances.

While we previously stated that we will be optimizing the servers prior to the emergency maintenance, we will require additional time to also implement counter measures to decrease the load on the servers.

While we estimate the time frame of the maintenance to be around two and a half hours, we will do our best to complete the maintenance as soon as possible.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your understanding.

I guess I am going to a party tonight after all then. Hopefully around 1-2AM EST servers will start clearing out and there will be less problems.

Lol this is freshman shit right there. Wats funny is that this isn't even their first mmo. This should be as robust as ever. This is 2013 not 2000. Fuck even funcom learned how to launch games by their second one. This is laughable at best.

It really is amazing how we've been playing these types of games for the better part of 14 years and yet still are dealing with the same kind of launch day issues. You would think technology and knowledge of how these things worked would of advanced to where you don't see these kinds of issues but yet here we are.

Their first mmo was released in JP in 2002. Yeah, 11 years ago. Shut the fuck up. Do you honestly think that releasing an mmo back then is ANYWHERE near the same as releasing an mmo now? (FFXIV doesn't count, no one played.)

Bullshit. Name another game which launched like this in the past 5 yrs. At least I have not played one that had these issues.
