Mid to late September actually... they brought it up in the Live Letter a couple weeks back. Forget exactly what was said, but it was expected something like 3 weeks after launch. Will poke around to see if I can find it again. Not much else to do... "server is full.... try again later".

Well I don't really think the servers are full.. the try again later is nothing more then an error that ALL servers are getting. So a server transfer is..well your jumping ahead to soon. Give them some more time it will all work out.

I sincerely hope they've done a 180 on that approach since then. This is a joke of a launch currently, and locked server registration is chief among reasons why. I've never seen an MMO launch handle server queueing and registration so poorly... Ever...

Not just NA transfers, but FREE NA transfers are NECESSARY and a lot sooner than 3 weeks from now. I managed to convince 4 people to purchase this game. 3 of them landed on other servers, none of us can play together. The 4th person has an all black launcher and can't log in, probably a local computer problem.

Anyhow, allowing us to carry our characters over from phase 4 BETA and then not allowing our friends to join the servers due to capacity was a horrible idea. Now we either have to reroll, or wait for transfers. If you decide to charge for transfers in the beginning, I'm pretty sure we will all quit and charge back to amazon for the game. It's one thing that your having technical troubles that don't allow us to log in, but to charge for transfers with all of these problems is a slap in the face.

Q: Are you planning to have a world transfer service?

---

A: As this is a game with world barriers, there are a variety of situations that may arise. You could meet a friend that happens to play XIV, but your servers are different and you want to play together. Or you could make a friend while using the Duty Finder and wish to switch over to their world, so we'll be providing a world transfer service for these occasions. This will be a fee-based service that will allow you to transfer to the world of your choice, and it will be possible to transfer up to 8 of your characters. We plan on launching this service around 2-3 weeks after launch.

liked to never find it... stupid forums bogging so bad. Found it in reinheart's twitch stream where he typed the translation in real time faster then I could get the @#$@#$ pages to load on the forum's site. But.. that's the "official" translation.

ASAP :eek:

been trying to log in all day.... considering starting a new char but would really rather transfer my current one to a JP server as all NA/EU servers seem to be over loaded and not showing on listing or down :confused:
