The flyff people have absolutely no clue about updating a production server --- not only do they need hours to do their "maintenance" (which should normally take a few minutes at best --- shutdown the software, dump the new version on top of it, restart, done --- do the testing and trying-out phase on a separate server), and don't even bother to have the client display a message instead of the stupid "cannot connect, check your network" --- they even turn the thing back on while it's not yet working. They continue to change things and experiment (on the production boxes, mind you!) while people try to connect.
Now, since people try to connect and fail, they try again and again, which in turn puts up load onto the servers that's completely avoidable. At some stage things will be working, but their servers and the client software isn't prepared for this kind of load (timeouts are too short, for example, and they seem to use a new connection for every file), which in turn creates more load since people are still trying again and again, but at the same time some people actually succeed, so in addition to everyone trying there will also be a few actually downloading some fragments of the update. Given some time, things will sort out again.
