[Sign petition ] Real EU servers based in EU need signs support the cause.

I dont think it will happen in near future. There is no movement after Square Enix bought Eidos and established Square Enix Europe. By taking consideration that Sqaure Enix Japan is in serious financial loss, whether their board of directors is willing to invest in Sqaure Enix Europe is a big quesiton.

I don't need any EU servers, but I'd like to be able to play with the same level of latency/lag as other players.
If my char is out of the red zone long before the attack lands, then it shouldn't take damage.

Ya the Euros would rather jump ship and destroy the current NA servers. That seems fair.

and when you get your own servers and find out the get hit by AOE's was not about distance to servers you'll be back in the forum complaining about what the rest of us have been from the beginning.

COMEON man... the issue here is, there's not enough servers for EU. Regarding FFXI, it was a damper to the community and because all the servers were based in Japan, that's why everyone was together. I'm not entirely sure if ALL the servers were based in Japan but information wether your PIN would be better in some servers over others wasn't clear. Information(at least for me) was held from me and was forced into a server after making my first character.

Ping does not effect MMO's in the same way as other games, I have played on Japanese servers with 300-400 ping and still been able to play. (not the best experience mind) Anything below 250 is good enough to cope with anything the game will throw at you.
This is not like a First Person Shooter where low ping matters.

I played FFXI for years with a ping of around 180ms never stopped me from doing anything. Never got me killed. If you are getting packetloss or other issues then that has nothing to do with server placement.

10/10, made my day.

Right now I have no issues, but I can see this happening when they patch the PvP and Frontlines. I want to have a equal chance in beating my enemy. The moment I notice that I can not beat my enemy in PvP, because I live in Europe is when I will end my subscription. If a EU server will improve this for us EU players, then I do not see why others are soo against this?
