Anyone else on server change fails?

So I've been camping the transfer application page refreshing from home on PC and work ( right now ) from my smart phone with no success. Do I really have a chance to transfer at this point besides ragnarok and ridill which shows a triangle once in a blue? Most of my friends are on Istory and I have a low level character I was going to level and join their guild from XI until I heard the wonderful transfer news. I decided to continue leveling the character I played at xiv launch then change servers. I don't have to give up the gear gil and hours I put into her, or do I? I love the game but I'm not sure I will be motivated enough to continue a new one if I don't make it through the 23 hours and 58 minutes of x ( server is full ). When phase one is over and servers are locked am I officially doomed? Is anyone else having this issue?

Forgot to add that I would like to delete my current low level istory character for my current character on lindblum. This feels like leaping Lizzie all over again... (−_−＃)

Hi, I had the same problem my ls changed to another server right after they put the page up and after 2h they where full.
That evening i tried to sign up w/o success, the next morning around 3pm jst they manually opened the servers and for like 1-2h almost all worlds where open.

You should try your luck during the week around that time, even if they don't open your desired world its more likely for you to squeeze in if there's some other worlds open for people to move around.

good luck ^^!

I pray to Odin I can get through I'm the last of all my friends/shell trying to get in.

Just as Habar mention, try do it on the weekday. They do not manually open up servers on weekend. Tommorow is monday for Japan, and i believe server will be manually updated and oopened again. Try your luck then :)

Unfotunantly my wife (who is Japanese and with me on fiancé visa ) hates games... Just my luck huh? This application is causing me marital problems lmao. But I'm commited and must get this server change. I won't give up.

I have a LS waiting for me on Excalibur and now I can't go there :/ and yeah, Ive been camping for hours everyday. Whats the point for Ragnarok when people dont wanna go there. At least let me pay for the transfer ! Good job SE.

It seems I'm not the only one with this problem then. I know they said some people had priority over others depending on when they started etc. I was there at launch with my collectors edition box but how can some of us get a chance at priority if we dont get the chance to even apply for a change? On another note I would pay for a transfer also, much better than starting over.

I have a little over a dozen ppl trying to get to my linkshell which will be merged onto Durandal. Some after 3 days of camping the thing all night they are about to just give up.

Thing is so many ppl are wanting to transfer but there is just no openings at all. PPl cannot get off their server so others cannot get on that server. SE needs to find a way to fix this issue. Cause it is apparent no one is going to the 1 open server >.> . Se just needs to increase the server capacity and put in Ques in game or something, atm the choose your own server merger is almost worthless the way this is being handled.

They need to do that or allow server merges permanently maby for a small fee or something after original merge. Gona screw over alot of ppl for like a year who where planning on coming to my linkshell in about 8days if nothing is done.

Ragnarok is a euro server to begin with they should have known it would fail to be popular like their economy.

I don't mean to be rude or belittle anyones issue with all this(I realy hope you get it resolved), but wouldn't it have made more sense for any LSs who desperatly wanted to escape their current servers to transfer to the one open one; Ragnarokk?

Essentialy this is a server merger with a transfer option tacked on to the side, I belive SE stated many times we'd get a real server transfer system ones 2.0 comes.
Since the tacked on transfer part of this ordeal isn't very well executed, maybe SE should've been smart about it and just merged servers for now without any mentioning of transfer until later come 2.0, that way people eager to transfer wouldn't be tricked into thinking they'd have a chance to do so with this shoddy system.

Anyways good luck, hopefully SE fixing theese problems somehow.

I would think shells would stay in default merger I'm just trying to get to my friends current merged server. It would be nice if they gave us a little more info or let us know if we're pretty much not going to get in at this point. Not that I would stop trying anyway.

Lol, this sounds like another fail issue. Eventually pay to transfer will be implanted for sure.

We need another server merge bailout.

Seems like many fails to understand what the porpuse of Ragnarokk being labeled recommended for EU players.
Basicly it doesnt mean that it is exclusivly a EU server or anything, it just means that the small minority of EU non english speaking players have a recommended place where they can find their own.
There is nothing saying that server couldnt be filled with 700 JP 700 NA and 600 EU...

And I fail to see what economy your refering too? Unless your only source of news is FOX you'd know most EU countires have rather stable economy compared to say the US, EU isnt a country, its a continent, some nations on said continent are struggling with their economy right now(like greece), but that won't directly effect another country in the EU much more then any other part of the world...

I didn't mean to offend Europeans I'm not sensitive when it comes to nationality or racial jokes. I know some people can't handle things like that. It's frustrating not being able to even apply for the thing.

Belitteling a racial group or nation etc over an issue in a video games forums isnt going to win you any support tho ^_~

I'd get it being a joke if say EU economy actualy where doing worse then US atm, but still Ragnarokk is in the eyes of community mislabaled as EU server, when its in fact a normal new server that happens to be recommended for minorities as a gather point.
I'm sure if SE never added that recommendation to the list people would be all over transfering too it, its rather silly and sad lol.

Probably true, they should have just left it as is regular server. I'm sure regardless what it's labeled euro groups will go/stay where they want. As far as nations and race go people are way too sensetive these days. I knew it would start some flame I just want the post to get hits and get dev attention lol

The only way my friends have had any success is by running the Refresh Page script, because once you land on a confirm page (the green text) you're good to go, even if you landed on it and several hours passed it will still let you cross over.

Its guaranteed all my friends so far a pass over to Gungnir with no failure after 1 night of running it. I find it quite funny though that we have to resort to making apps just to ensure we get onto the server we want.

I thought of this... why don't you make a new character in Istory and when server merge happens you will have a guarantee to be with your friends.

Idk if you can create new character now so if you can that is the best way now :|

Would you reroll? Losing all your progress, any gil you made, achievements, etc?

He/she said has low lvl character didn't? If yes I would... since getting all to 50 with this current system is a joke. Of course I wouldn't delete the current character and keep trying...

Yeah it said:

Interesting .. I'm going to try this thanks for the idea! I've been trying to transfer to Masamune ever since it started. (I even resorted to refreshing on my cell phone all day while at work)

Hopefully this will work for me! Thanks!

I have one there but I wanted to transfer my main character. While I don't have jobs at 50 my marauder is at 49 pug 36 archer 22 crafts etc Gil gear etc that I don't want to get again or invest hours on. Unfortunately I work 40+ hours a week and have a Japanese wife whose not a fan of games. : /

I would want to delete the istory character once I would have moved my main.

The EU is far from stable. In the globalized era, the more "tied up" your currency is the less stable it is. Consider the comparison of the Euro against the dollar over a two year history. In June, 2010 the Euro peaked (for this time period) at .83 against the dollar. However, in May 2011 the Euro hit a low of .68. Now that is anything but stable. But, at the same time, that indicates that the dollar is equally unstable! This is the evidence that any globalized system is not stable.

You state that the struggles of countries which the EU supports won't directly affect them is incorrect. For example, what happens to the EU if Greece defaults? How will the EU support their currency in the event this occurs? How can you recoup money from a bankrupt country? Last I checked, the UN will not allow an international union of any sort to seize/foreclose on a country for failure to pay.

Buddy, you are implying that someone is narrow-minded or ill-informed when your response is guilty of that.

ON-TOPIC: I would wait because we should see some kind of response within the next couple of days. No need to worry three days into the mess.

All triangle!!!

All servers seem to have availability at this moment

As of now. all server open. including balmung! gogogo

At this moment all but 3(Aegis,Balmug,Excalibur) are still open :3

what script did u use ? mine didnt seem to work -.-

I wonder what they did to make it all Triangle, Fix it? Raise Cap? Ban bots? (lols prolly not), ignore Inactive?

they probably have a general cap on players then take that 2000 on that server and break it down to 600 on est-pst times 600 euro and like 800 jp but server can allow 1000 people at once on stable so they open it for 200 more til jp hits cap



update: got onto server i wanted :)
