What the hell are they thinking? Why even bother have an emergency maintenance at all until they can fix these more serious issues? Zhayolm remnants is impossible to win at the moment; the door doesn't open to the boss. The crashing is annoying as hell and makes every event hazardous due to random DCs. The game is almost unplayable in its current state.

So I assume the crashing probably hasn't been resolved? Just crashed again using Reso in Cape Terrigan.

Was fine everywhere else then crashed four times in dyna. Pretty annoying. :/ Seemed to only happen during JAs/WS.

If SE focussed more on customer service and debugging and less on "exploits" and sidegrade reskinned gear, the playerbase would be much happier. This the 5th MINOR update in a row followed by an emergency maintenance . . .

Perhaps you forgot about the old days where you could basically plan in advance to not play for the three days following an update.
This was never the case in the past, at least up to the point of ToAU when I quit in 2007 the first time.

There was never this issue of logging in for 10 minutes and having the game lag while checking inventory then DCing if you scrolled too fast, or just crashing when you ran through Port Jeuno and weren't even in inventory/trade/sack/satchel screens.

This is the first time in my XI experience where crashes and freezes just randomly occur on this wide of a scale of players. It's not Windower, it's not "windowed mode," it's all SE. People on all systems are experiencing this, and that really speaks for itself.

Emergency Maint not fixing the issue really is a slap in the face, and like someone else said (after this post I'm quoting), SE really should credit us a few days due to THEIR issue that THEY caused.

No point even logging on due to the random crashes at this point. If you can't reliably sneak/invis past mobs (such as in Dyna), why should we be expected to pay for a half-assed experience which causes us unnecessary grief? First time I've been disappointed in SE since the launch of FFXIV, and honestly, this update shouldn't have even gone live with all of the problems it has.

No, the game wouldn't randomly crash, but they'd have a 10-hour regular maintenance followed by 3 days of 8 hour emergency maintenances '~'

Not on any type of regular basis, no. And when the game crashes, that's a pretty big problem, especially when it crashes over walking through Port Jeuno and not even during some event where tons of ability/spell graphics are going off.

Bugs happen, they make it into release versions, there are maintenances, and they get fixed.

It's really nothing to get salty about.

THIS IS AN OUTRAGE I WILL NEVER FORGIVE SE!

Please remove the stick from your rear end, take two doses of reality, and call me in the morning.

Perhaps all crashing issues are related to item names loading incorrectly in memory?

I've only had issues while looking at my inventory (one time) and on a character running a non-default spellcast XML (two times).

For me it mostly happens when I am checking my inventory or searching through a magic or job ability list. Never any other time for me.

There are enough varying reports that it's unlikely any consistancy will be found that will allow players to avoid it.

It's most likely related to the collision code.
