Server status is still "Maintenance" on the official website, so yup, it's not back up.

Its a fucking official release. This is the launch. You paid for a fucking broken product and as part of that purchase you get to play the game 3 days early. This isn't a fucking free beta.
Jesus H Christ on a stick.
If I ever come out with a shitty product without any service or support, you are going to be my first target market.
Calling anything but gilgamesh official is a stretch. Given the 100+ people there, any other server is going to be backup/waiting list tier.

It isn't a last minute beta when you fucking PURCHASE the product to be able to access it.

Nah, he's right though - these shouldn't be issues at this point. But I think there's a little too much rose colored glasses going on.Wow too had a shit launch, let's not forget.
It's not justifyable in this day in age though, but again, you deal with it or you don't. If you don't then just leave. If you are going to deal with it, then you have to take the bad, and hope Square credits time if this circus happens during the official launch. Given what's on the line for Square on this release, though, I'm pretty sure they are trying as best they can. Good enough for me /shrug. Not gonna freak out over $9.99 a month.

Don't think a magic patch is even necessary in this game - but a magic "don't be cheap bastards and spend some fucking money on server upgrades" is. Or maybe "don't be fucking retards and put EU/NA on the same cluster", but I digress. I have zero game-breaking issues with the game itself, but they've done themselves no favors with their server limitations. Making all of your story quests run through duty finder was pretty dumb as well.

Given that there are zero problems on the Japanese servers it is clear that they either completely fucked up their server allocation in terms of Japan vs rest of the planet OR they partnered with someone incompetent for the NA/EU server hosting that overpromised and underdelivered.
Might be a bit selfish, but I'm not feeling too bad about issues atm. I'm out of town until the 29th and can only play early morning/late night till then. The server issues have kept me somewhat close levelwise, lol

It's funny. Half the people on here that are complaining about servers and how this game is nosediving to epic failure, are the ones that couldn't follow simple directions on where to enter preorder codes, or how to re-enter them to get the correct code. The ones that couldn't be bothered to roll a character on the guild server when servers opened, etc. I think the majority of us are enjoying the game, and other than a few server downtimes to fix the duty finder congestion, have not had any significant problems. Like I said before, WoW still has weekly maintenance almost 10 years later. Servers gonna server.
It is looking good though, that everyone's beef is with some server launch problems, and not issues with the game, or shitty hero engine, or glaring fundamental game flaws, etc. I think that is what a lot of you fail to realize. You aren't bitching about the game, you're bitching about the servers which will be sorted out in a week or 2 anyways. Doesn't that say something to you?

/\/\ Are you fucking kidding me? It's an error on SE's part where people have their accounts region locked to other fucking countries or were mailed the wrong codes. Maybe you haven't gone out on the public internet lately. Let me help.

I bought a car, it isn't running. I'll walk to work because cars are historically unreliable. Especially Fords. Seem like that did a lot of good for Detroit as everyone wallows in shit.

Holy fuck you people.

Costs more to go see a shitty movie. If you don't like it then call it a loss And move on. Some of us been around for other mmo launches so this is no biggie. Also the game hasn't even officially launched.
