High Pop servers can transfer to low pop servers with 999,999,999 gil with the current incentives in place.

Yeah, it's absolutely a solution. Balmung is a mega server. That means there are going to be queues, often lengthy ones, when new content comes out. They'll die down after a bit. If you can't stand that, then leave the server. They basically pay you to leave if you choose an appropriate destination realm.

Can you explain what went wrong with the launch? By launch day almost every issue with had been resolved so it was a pretty good launch.

There's also PVP. I get so much EXP from PvP that leveling up has been a matter of do MSQ til I'm level locked, and then just do PvP to unlock the next level. At level 64 I'm getting 600K EXP a match, and the queues are 5 minutes or less.

That not true, one of them smaller server, MY SERVER is now over packed Gobiln, use to be in the bottom 3 for the NA servers.. Now it's not, to many players and it hard to get crap done, me and many other picked small server to have a free open world with no trolling and a welcome commuty. But with the 100% Xp boost and the free hoping it has fucked up our server.

I feel your pain, we got this problem on Zalera, Havnt run into very many trolls yet, and most our population is report happy when it comes to trolls so we tend to quish them pesky buggers quick

Well apparently by the program they running SE doesn't want HUGE servers (balmung gilgamesh being locked) and they don't want small servers (why some are preferred worlds) either and want them to even out. Also what/how many do you send "too many players"?

It's doing the same on Coeurl as well. We'll have to see whether things calm down again after this initial rush.

I'm pretty sure the population of Goblin doesn't know the tip of the ice berg of being "over packed". Also, legitimate question, what is difficult to get done because there are more people on the server?

You can't login.

On Goblin? I just moved to Coeurl and have had 0 problems other than the DDoS attacks and, as of the May unofficial census, Goblin had about 1000 less active players than Coeurl. There are also reports in this very thread of no extensive login issues from Excalibur which had about 7k more active players in the May census. I find it very difficult to believe that 7k+ players have transferred to Goblin in the past 5 days.

Sure I could be wrong but it seems rather unlikely with the information available to me.

What? Not even dps queues take that long.

Why corpse digging this 5 year old thread? It was relevant back, during the lost era of when SB got released and suffered the influx of people wanting the new content and clogging the loging queues,, not unsimilar to the threads about the same topic for ShB and of more recent memory EW.

06-19-2017 why did you go through 100+ threads to find this

To be fair to the person, I often go back hundreds of pages and read old posts to remember what it was like back then. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't tempted to necro some to show people who started more recently how certain issues they're complaining about are the result of changes to even larger issues made "Way Back When". Refreshing collective memory can be fascinating to observe and see how discussions differ in the current period.

Which wouldn't be bad IF new life was being brought to the discussion...not just a one off statement that has no bearing on the actual topic at hand. Troll necro is real

Yes I'm a curious person and it's so interesting to me.

So basically stormblood was 4 years ago and the game is still plagued by huge queues…
