Hi friends

I posted this on the Update thread but wanted it to be as visible as possible. Sortie appears to be busted. Upon entering, 5 of 6 players were thrown out. The 5 thrown out retained their plate. The 6th turned in their Ruspix plate to try again and the same thing happened except a different player stayed inside.

Wanted to put this here so nobody else ends up wasting their shiny plates.

was this the patch that they tinkered with the instance system? probably the inevitable spaghetti spillage related to that if so

Yes, the patch that was already delayed for a month because of a bug they found. Guess there was another one hiding in there.

Good news. A GM already reached out to me so they're aware of the issue.

Completely breaking, to the point the content is not usable, one of the 3 things they changed in the March patch is planned misery, not incompetence.

They changed the sortie instance system, the new TVR mission, and changes to their filter. I dont count the Ambuscade rotations, there was nothing new. Maybe you could count the Everbloom Hollow changes as a fourth.

(This wont end until I'm bored of mocking it, it may be a couple days, it may be a few weeks, who knows)

lol, admitting you're dumb by not understanding isn't "mocking" anything.

Just going to get yourself banned. Bonus for everyone. So keep it up champ.

How is it planned misery if the content is already dead because a ton of people are effectively done, I have 5/5 +3 for all 11 of my jobs and only have one +2 earring which is for a job I don't play as far as I'm concerned +2 earrings don't exist and I'm done with sortie, other than just to help others. If they actually want to milk this content out they need to make it so we can actually work towards +2 earrings.

Oh no, they stopped us from doing the most boring content in recent memory a 2nd time at patch day when they are implementing new entry updates. How ever will we just not care?

Yea, I was able to enter solo and get an unlock. Perhaps it was only full parties that were affected? I'm not sure, but I do know I was chucked out twice when in a party of 6/6.

Enjoy the unlimited Regular Ambuscades and TVR cutscenes, ignore the lack of similar dedication and frequency given to our main courses.

Took them days to fix the guild book texture glitch putting people into disconnect limbo last time, would be surprised if this is resolved any quicker.

My faith in humanity to be resourceful, read, and comprehend is lost every time there are events like these.

I'm recording the banter in Kamihr /say - it's similar to a bunch of toddlers having a panic attack. Who would believe there might be some semblance of an official website that could give them direction on what is going on?

Unsurprising. You'd think they would have learned to roll this out on a "test" server (a small one) before implementing it everywhere, so they can iron out any unforeseen bugs with the least damage, but that would make too much sense.

Are you accusing FFXI / SE of being incompetent? The nerve.

Sortie being inaccessible is planned misery.
