Last Fantasy 14: Endwalker players are waiting in lengthy lines to go to the moon

 Moon's haunted and the rabbit kids are here to save it.


Final Dream 14's long-awaited growth Endwalker is here for those who pre-ordered it (the full release is December 7), and also the servers are doing fine, primarily. As is common with MMO launches where thousands of players hurry to log in and see everything new, Final Fantasy 14 Endwalker's launch has gamers stuck in lengthy queue times, big groups, as well as periodically unpredictable web servers.

On my web server, Siren, the procedure of updating the video game to Endwalker, visiting, and getting to the first mission provider was relatively smooth. I had regarding 400 gamers in queue to visit prior to me as well as the delay only lasted around 5 mins. When in, the initial quest for the major tale lay in an instanced area, so other players hindering wasn't a problem. That had not been real for the second step, which has you talk with a personality out in one of the video game's major cities. In situations such as this where you can not locate the pixel that'll choose the NPC, you can hold down the default keybind (X) to make various other players unclickable or press numpad 0 to target the nearest NPC automatically.

I've been around for many development launches in World of Warcraft. This is my first for Final Dream 14, and it appears regarding as smooth as you could reasonably expect. Players on the game's subreddit have filled up the web page with pictures and memes concerning their queue times and the 2002 error code. The lengthy line up times largely rely on just how booming your server is and also whether or not you're a complimentary test player that is put below subscribed gamers in the queue. If you wish to obtain a sense for just how your very own server is standing up, you can check each one's status quite quickly.

Square Enix advised players concerning the line up times in a post recently. "There is an ongoing international scarcity and boosted need for semiconductors, and rather honestly, we are still struggling to source the needed devices," Final Fantasy 14 director Naoki Yoshida wrote. "Furthermore, the renewal of COVID-19 instances in Japan has actually raised significant concerns regarding our ability to travel overseas for on-site executions."

In spite of the development not being fully launched yet, it skyrocketed to 84,000 simultaneous players on Heavy steam, exceeding Halo Infinite at 64,000. It's worth noting, nevertheless, that the video game is split between Vapor players as well as those that make use of the proprietary launcher, so the number of players online right now would be greater than it looks.

Back on my server, the crowds appear tame, partly due to the fact that FF14 limitations how many individuals you can see at the same time. If you intend to stay clear of spoilers for the main story, which is said to finish up the arc that started back with the game's initial 2013 launch, you may intend to go into your conversation settings and also disable/ scream.

Until now though it doesn't feel like lots of people have a great deal to state, as they stand motionless with film strip icon over their heads, suggesting they're deep in a new cutscene describing the Warrior of Light's new mission to prevent the end of the world once again.
