A European datacenter!

. Plus, if arrstatus is correct, I have a ping of 80ms which is about the same that I have in WoW EU located servers.

If you would actualy read what's stated at the arrstatus you would know that: "The values displayed (ex.80ms) represent the delay between ARRstatus.com and FFXIV servers." So no, you probably have higher pings than those displayed at the arrstatus.

Am from denmark, same boat as most people i havee 100mbit con i get hmm about 100+ to the Servers but i know its prob higher and playin a tank i had to give up in some instances due to the server lag and even watching some other people with worse cons than me i can see them moving on my screen out of aoe yet they still get hit and die. its a shame i realy enjoy the game but to die to stupied crap like that is not fun I rather pay more to have one in the Eu than is other side of the world,

and what big mmo company does not have a Eu server hell i get better ping play a jap server

[Shori]

europeans dont even get ways to contact customer service so we sure as heck aint gonna get a datacentre. wont stop me living in hopes though

as a legacy player that could not miss any of the ifrit plumes in 1.0 , and i dodged every single one in 2.0 im already glad with the improvements
but closer would be beter

It's playable when there's not much lag, but still even in the best situation you need to be out of the AoE circle at least 1 second before the actual attack...
Now that the number of players has exceeded the exceptions it would be nice to have the EU servers on a datacenter in EU. One can always wish

Badly need EU servers, HM Titan would be so much fkin easier if you had the correct amount of time to dodge.

you can ping around the equator in 200-300 miliseconds, location is not the full problem.

its the routes between the two points causing the lag more routes slower connection every server that data has to go though will slow you down.

If it helps the EU FFXIV community, ill +1 this
