Omega possibly being "congested"...

Ok maybe I'm wrong but i believe if omega becomes a congested world and the exp buff gets taken away, then shouldn't the 90 jail be lifted as well?

I don't think so for anyone who transferred over. You agreed to their terms/conditions when you jumped to a server with a free transfer with more stuff bring-able. New servers only become congested as everyone flocks to it/makes new characters on it. That wasn't covered in anything they said about the transfer, so it shouldn't be lifted.

'These bonuses will remain in effect until the active player population of Congested and Preferred Worlds has stabilized, but please note that the population status of a World is subject to change.'

Anyone who jumped to a new server should have known what they were getting into.

you're right ^_^ i was just stating a thought.

I kinda hope it wont, but again I think it's to move players to the new server as well! Some raid people wants to come to my server, well some of the people that I'm part of static with.

It already is congested.

That's only the worlds they do the forced log out on players. Omega isn't even congested yet.

It's not far off probably. But really, depends entirely on how SE defines "congested."

Congested by the lvl 30 triying to get free trial, in the "bigger" zones it's empty....

I would hope the 90 day jail be lifted but I doubt it will.

Quite unlikely. They are attempting to balance servers, not create a way for people to transfer from server to server to server to get bonuses.

I do think that if Omega become congested, we will be able to move again. If it was not possible, then there would be no point in these measures in the first place.

If omega gets congested and you can no longer enter it, and they don't lift the 90 days then it really just becomes an isolation chamber. They'd accept there's problems but give no solution, so i think should it be added to the congested worlds it will get transfers off. That's not getting the chance to hop around, that is nnecessairy to solve a problem nobody could possibly have seen coming *cough*everyonehearingeugetsonlyonenewworldatfirst*cough*

The question is also how full are the level 31+ areas compared to the lv 1-30 areas?
How many play on Omega only until lv 30 to get the free 15 days sub?

Well, they did say if it gets congested status, exp bonus will be gone.

Omega is a little unique since pretty much every single person there is an active player whereas older servers might have characters who haven't logged in weeks/ months. It should settle down considerably next time we hit a content dryspell though.

Last time I checked the 60+ zones had an average of 30 players per instance. Kugane was decently alive, Gyr Albania is lively. Idyllshire is empty. Only a few people there. Ishgard is pretty empty as well.

The 3 city states are full and alive. I see way more activity in the starter zones than in the higher zones.

It's still pretty full at peak hours in Ishgard, but it's rather empty the rest of the day.

Well, empty enough to really regret moving there at least, and it really feels like Omega is going to be dead in a few weeks-months.

Well, Ishgard is also on most of the other servers empty.
Except of HW Hunt and HW Leves there is not many reason to visit Ishgard.

We must be in different dimensions, I'm having the opposite experience.
I didn't expect Omega to be half as popular as it is, I've seen SO many people around Limsa, Ul'dah, Gyr Abania, Kugane, Gridania, every lvl 70 area.

Its plenty busy in all the citys i just had another DC in pvp now in a que again of 2000 please sort this out SE i noticed Omega is now closed again must be filled back up >.>

Lets wait the end of the server transfer and new character in new server promotions, before talk of congested. Omega suffers the influx of ninjas for the 15 day extra play time and nothing else. When the promotion ends in that server, congestion will *poof* too.
