#FFXIV IDLE TIMER FOR FREE#
This allows us to prioritize our paying customers and will mean longer wait times for Free Trial users, but we would like to ask for your understanding on this matter. Free Trial characters will be able to log in after the login queue has been cleared.
#FFXIV IDLE TIMER FULL VERSION#
When a login queue is in place, players on the full version of the game will be prioritized for logging in. Note that upon canceling the queue, you will be moved to the back of the queue when reattempting to log in.

We apologize for the inconvenience, but ask that you patiently remain in the queue should you encounter wait times. When a World reaches the maximum number of players that can log in, it will result in a login queue for that particular World.Įven if the queue does not appear to be counting down, the queueing process is still functioning and will admit players in the order in which they queued. We also recommend reading through the following information regarding situations that may arise during Early Access and the launch of Endwalker. We ask for your understanding and cooperation regarding this matter. We will further enhance our monitoring of the situation to allow for as many players as possible to log in. We would like to apologize for making this sort of announcement at a time when many of you are looking forward to the expansion, as well as for inconveniences that may be caused by congestion.Īlthough we were unable to add new Worlds, we have implemented every other measure that was possible, such as replacing the matching servers with higher-performance machines, optimizing processes, increasing processing speeds, and raising the number of simultaneous logins. The addition of new Worlds will still be considered as we procure the necessary server machines.Īs such, there is a high likelihood of congestion that will result in Worlds reaching maximum login capacity and lengthy wait times when logging in. On the other hand, due to the ongoing global shortage of semiconductors we have previously mentioned, we were unable to add new Worlds before the release of Endwalker.

In preparation for these predictions, we optimized our servers ahead of the expansion’s launch in order to increase login caps. Furthermore, following a dramatic increase in the player base in all regions since this summer, we are currently experiencing record numbers of active users, and therefore are expecting a number of logins that is yet to be seen since the launch of FFXIV. Since the launch of a new expansion is when a large number of players will be playing for extended periods of time, we are expecting far more simultaneous logins compared to usual. We would like to share some information regarding the congestion that may occur during the Early Access period and release of Endwalker.
