Regarding Preparations to Increase the Capacity of our Data Centers

[SionDurant]

I appreciate it SE, this is what I was asking for yesterday, I doubt the response was to our post but I'm retracting all of my boundless QQ.

Thank you,

Wake up SE issued a statement stating both NA and EU servers would also be included in increased server capacity after it's initial statement Aegis posted which translates into a SE error...CORRECT?

They clarified it because people like you made a mistake and stirred up a shitstorm on the forums. They took steps to correct your misunderstanding. It was your error, friend.

You want constructive criticism the game shouldn't have been released SE should have took another week or 2 to polish and fix the servers.The server issues have benn happening all thru beta from alpha to Phase 4....how's that for constructive?

I agree that the release date should have been pushed back after the 3012 and 90000 errors in phase 4 and that it was an error to have such a small phase 4, and it was an error It's demonstrably not constructive, however, because it's after the fact. The statement in no way helps the current situation.

All I hear from you is a whole lot of bitching like that wife that never stops yapping. You've mistaken whining for constructive criticism.

Do I agree that the game should never have been released on the 27th? Yes I do. Phase 4 was too short. They applied a fix to the 3102 and 90k and extended an additional 6 hours of beta testing DURING a time when the least amount of NA/EU were on (being it monday and in the morning when people are either asleep or at work). I believe that was a mistaken on SE part or whoever decided the release date and refused to push it back upon the discovery of problems in Open Beta.

As for your rage over SE's announcement on additional servers being added. No-where in the announcement said it was limited to Japan only. Taking into context that the announcement was made in all languages, it's safe to assume NA, EU and JP are relatively included. It was also stated in the announcement that they plan to increases their facilities, didn't state which but facilities is used in plural tense, so it's also an assumption that NA, EU and JP are included. Since SE has previously referred to NA/EU Data center and JP Data center as two entities.

Your so called constructive criticism lacks the pros & cons, citations or evidence and relative contextual possibilities needed to make a so called "constructive criticism".

And this being my third post of the day, I wasted my posting privilege on you.

Edit: Just connected to Behemoth server. I'll be enjoying the rest of my day with this game.

No, it was SE's poor communication skills, yet again.

Those with a good understanding of how English is written know that the body of a document relates to the words IN THE TITLE. Since the TITLE mentioned JAPANESE and ONLY Japanese it was absolutely correct to interpret SE as saying the new servers mentioned in the body of the text were JAPANESE servers.

No matter how much fanboys like you want to believe it, SE were at fault for the 'storm' that ensued.

I'd also like the clarification clarified ^^.

I fear that "increasing the capacity of our data centers" will just mean the addition of new worlds. I hope that it means an increase in compute / memory of existing world servers so that log-in and character creation limits can be eased. When I started the game this morning at 6:30 am, my world server was already full but I made it first shot to the queue. At 6:00 pm during NA prime time, I'm forced to play a random number generating mini-game of spamming start just to get to the queue.

Yoshi in one of the live letters impressed me a lot when he talked about some grinding aspect of the game as not being very much "fun", so, he changed it. I liked that attitude. What I fail to see now is how spamming start for an hour is consistent with his stated goal of making sure we all have "fun".

This is not fun.

To be fair, most who speak English have a poor understanding of the language. Namely since all it is, is a hodgepodge of other languages slapped together. It was a -mistake- dude. Let it go.

You can't honestly say it was correct to interpret it that way when that way was wrong. The body of the text did relate to the title. The increase in capacity will reduce congestion on the JP data centre. No argument there.

The argument is that you assumed they were only doing this to the JP data centre in absence of any kind of supporting statement to that effect. You refuse to admit you were wrong to jump to this conclusion even though others were saying at the time that there is no reason to jump to that conclusion. You didn't ask for clarification, which would have been reasonable, you just jumped to a conclusion that was wrong and refuse to admit that you were at error for doing so.

They never said "We are increasing capacity on the JP data centre only" or "We will not be increasing capacity on the NA/EU data centre". Those would have been absolute statements that you would have been well within your rights to get riled up about.

Next time, take a breath, re-read the whole statement (not just the title, mind) and see if it still says what you thought it said at first, rather than just jumping on the forums and crying foul.

So what you're saying is that if we're able to log in at all for the next week we need to just stay logged until unless we want to play the 1017 game?

[Rowyne]

Are there going to be new named worlds or just more hardware for more concurrent connections on existing worlds?

Yes, can someone please clarify if this simply means new servers, or if the capacity of the existing servers will be increased? I'm hoping it's the latter.

[Aver]

Spending too much time with the Slyphs?

Anyway, clarification can only be a good thing, and I do hope it stops some of the more ridiculous complaining that's been going on.

First thing that popped into my mind when I read it!
