As the title says, wanted to know the possibility of a Brazilian server creation, because clearly not only Brazil, but others countries which are not in area of existing servers suffer from lag and dc.
Any plans to launch a Brazilian server?

You should wait until EU servers before even asking for Brazil servers.

I can understand that others priorities, but not all play with `` seding: 1200 / reciv: 3000`` and will continue to play (is not the fault of my internet).

Nope, your best bet is to choose an unofficial one amongst your community. Like many SEA-region countries have chosen Tonberry as their unofficial server, for instance. I don't know if any of the south american community has chosen to congregate on a particular server or not though. Considering the EU servers aren't actually in Europe, it is highly unlikely there will ever be servers in south america.
Does WoW have servers physically located in brazil? or any other major MMO for that matter? Would be the first I've heard. -

Honestly, servers aside from the ones in Canada and the Ones in Japan, probably NEVER going to happen. They might open a Latin American set of servers, but they'll be in montreal.

Pfffffft... It's already a miracle that Squeeny even allows us in the XIV series.
Erm... Except that doesn't have anything to do with the matter (even though OP is also dreaming in a distant galaxy)? His QQ is another of the "netcode type". I have a 15d/1u connection and I don't have game-breaking moments. I can notice that most of the problems I get here are actually from instability from my ISP.Quote:

11-21-2013, 10:55 AMAlhanelemI have to admit, i have had a bad expeirence in general with brazillian players in League of Legends, I'd encounter them on the north america servers even though they DO have brazil servers, and they'd generally not play as well and spam the chat with things like "huehuehuehuehuehue!" and speaking in brazillian portugese (which is different from ordinary portugese) and not cooperating with the team.Quote:

Now, i'm not saying everyone is like that, though it is something that happened more often than I feel like it should have. So you're right that there is a stigma, which is perhaps unfair.
ANYWAY... I do feel for them in this game since they're pretty much as far as you can be from either data center, but I just don't see it happening, like others said, if and until EU servers are actually in the EU. -

Fame Brazilian ever to worst. Good part of the online population here likes offend own image and of his country. Is difficult to live in a country that defames his image and isolate himself from others because of it (sorry by my bad english).

I'm new to the game and I don't know about FFXIV specifically, but the brazilian player base in MMOs is quite large. I don't think a brazilian data center should be created, but a south american one would be a big help and I believe the player base is large enough to justify it. I don't mind playing with people from other countries (in fact, I like it a lot), but the high latency would make me consider a lot moving to a local server.
Truth is there are no words even about an EU server, so I we shouldn't expect a SA server anytime soon ): -
02-08-2014, 06:25 AMMoheeheekoI think they need to optimize their current servers before establishing new ones, as I live in California and get latency like that all the time. Not my ISP's fault either, as I can download the whole game in an hour and a half.Quote:

I seriously doubt they'll ever put a server in Brazil or anywhere in South America considering they don't even support the Portuguese or Spanish languages with their games.

I would love for them to open servers, ni zones, like South America, and Europe.
But the sadly... there isnt even servers for United States... all we got are some servers in Montreal... so the only playerbase who is able to enjoy the game, are people who lives in Canada, or in the north part of United States....
One would expect that because of the success of Square Enix, and FFXIV.. they would invest more in infrastructure...
I guess its actually frustrating... because they release all this "hard content" that requires alot of dodging... and some people are unable to enjoy it, because of horrible infrastructure.
And the worst case.. is that everytime someone talks about it, they get two types of answers
a) a white knight, defending SE. Which makes no sense, because if people dont complain, how are they going to get allt he feedback required to improve the server.
b) Yoshi saying that they cant do anything, because players are not zooming out.... -
02-08-2014, 06:50 AMOddIt takes three days minimum to drive from Montreal to Vancouver. It takes one day to drive from Montreal to Miami. So you're excluding the entire eastern seaboard, and ignoring the fact that there's people in Iceland who are closer to Montreal than some Canadians. I live in Winnipeg and my latency sucks in game.Quote:

Home and private players tend to be upstanding members of the community, while street urchins who skip school to play at a pc cafe tend to be the scum of the earth player that give BRs their bad name (not that all cafe players are like this). Situation is similar in the Phils, had a great crew of friends from Phils on another MMOs private server, and one thing they had in common was how much they disliked the kiddies playing from cafes who had so called "crab" mentalities giving their countrymen a bad rap.Quote:

A PGL cross-classing raise there I see. That's some mighty powerful resurrection skills you got there.

Your answer is a forever NO.
FFXIV is only licensed for NA/EU/JP. if you're out from NA/EU/JP countries your account can be banned or blocked because SE doesn't even support your zone. I live in South America and i understand the risk plus all the stores here stopped selling the game for obvious reasons ; "In order to play you need a NA account".
The only reason why non-North American players can play is because SE doesn't care about it. In South America the gaming-online market it's only about LOL/Dota/CSGO and a bunch of f2p SA licensed trash games that nobody gives a shit because no one wants to play with toxic players like Latin American's (Perú/Brazil etc) -
