EU Data Center

still dont know why they would not include a true EU server at launch, it cost them some players, but at least i wont have to deal with this delay for much longer.

Im so used to sub 20 latency in games, the 100+ is really annoying to me.

But yes, it will be moved. And we'll have a couple of days of downtime when that happens, to copy everything to the new (physical) servers.

Is this confirmed?
Last thread i read about this the people in it said it would probably be new worlds.
If this is confirmed thats great news, cause i wouldn't wanna sell my house and disband my FC just to play with better ping

Probably because delaying launch another three months to get the EU datacenter finished would have cost them MORE players.

It would be lame not to, considering that the Chaos datacenter was already tagged as EU, and a waste of resources and money, as I doubt that many people would be willing to lose their FCs and houses. Just imagine the uproar that it would cause, when it's "easy" to copy the data and save themselves that headache.

Moreover, when Yoshida talked about it some time ago in a french interview, he said something along the lines of being gathering information and looking at how other companies did it back in the day. Why would they do all that work if they're simply going to open new blank servers?
