Servers Locked Again..!!

A couple hours ago on Cactuar, a FATE spawned near me in Central Shroud, and then 15-30 seconds later I saw a sea of 150-200 people running towards me. It was a massive group that was a mile long and pretty deep. The servers are pretty jam packed. There obviously aren't enough servers to spread the population out adequately.

BTW kudos to SE for excellent graphics performance in this game, I thought my video card was going to explode, but it didn't.

lol sounds like a normal first day of EA to me unfortunately, What SE should have done was:

1) made more than 5 Legacy servers.
2) made more servers period.

Then once everything was settled, merge server together with low populations and worked down to what they needed. Not work up and fill them up before making more, but still no one can see the future and they are doing the best they can under the circumstances.

Biggest mistake you could do would be adding more servers now. Do you remember what happend to SWTOR when they did that cause the servers where full on Early Access.
You will have to wait at least 14 days after release cause then alot ppl will leave after the free 14 days. If you add servers now you will produce ghost server in the future.
I'm quite sure SE has taken that into account and we have to deal with that for now, but that happens in every AAA title in the first days/weeks
