SE should provide more servers for Group NA/EU

Population in the US: 313.9 million (2012)

Population in Europe: 739.2 million (2011)

Population in Japan: 127.8 million (2011)

Number of servers for NA+EU: 20
Number of LEGACY servers for NA+EU: 5
Number of server for JP: 20
Number of LEGACY servers for JP: 5

so this is a disproportion between population and the number of servers.

Haha I like it!

Going by those numbers NA/EU should have about 206 servers to equal JP.

I think they should either get rid of the Group NA EU or JP thing so players don't tend to choose sides, or increase the number of servers on NA EU side.

Population in Asia: 4 Billion+

ppl who make & like this post are no brain.

there are asian, ocean, NA/EU, JP play on JP server, just like there are JP, ocean, asian, NA/EU play on NA/EU server.

The Only question I have is

Number of FFXIV accounts (legacy/1.0/new) for each region?

Then I believe we could argue about number of servers (even if it is just labeling and we can play anywhere)

People say "add more servers!" like SE can just stroll down to the local radio shack, buy a couple servers, and plug them in just like that. Amazingly enough, it takes more work than that, especially when the datacenter in question is several countries away.

tell me why the NA EU servers are so full right now but not JP servers then?

Most people will still flock to the perceived good servers regardless of problems with overpopulation you add a ton of new servers and they become ghost towns while a handful of servers are still way over capacity

I have been playing on Faerie and have had minimal troubles getting in and playing

I dont think adding more servers would fix the issues. Legacy servers for example are full and these people are already (mostly at least) in Free companies and would not wish to divide this.

And good point about JP servers also serving people in the whole Asia... I actually never thought of that myself as it is called "JP servers" - Maybe it should be called "Asia servers".
