I need server transfer now!

[Warlyx]

if u were new in 2.0 u had the OPTION to go LEGACY or NOT , why ppl choosed a legacy if they wanted to start on a new server or move to a new server later on ????

A 1.0 player with 2.0 friends joining the game why they didnt join your server ? locked? all the servers were locked to be fair , mine (new) opened for some hours late at night , took my gf and friends 2-3 days of trying to get a character on moogle.

To be fair, some servers literally never opened the entire early access period, and for a week or more after.
I was looking for tonberry to open, which it never did until quite awhile after they added servers.
I started on a legacy and rerolled off because I expected this to happen.

I came back to the game at launch for early access, and by that point, the damage had already been done. SE had stuck my 1.0 character on a random JAP Aegis server, even though I am clearly an EU player, signing on from an EU region, and there wasn't a damn thing I could do about it.

That wasn't my stupidity. It's SE's. Plain and simple. I didn't screw myself. I re-installed FFXIV, and FOUND my character on Aegis. Already done.
Before you say we had the opportunity to World Transfer during the early beta stages', I was neither around nor aware that this was happening at the time.

You should be able to move to a legacy server of your choice when transfers open, you just can't transfer to a non legacy server.

if you read his first post he makes it pretty clear he wants to be on a non legacy world not transfer to another legacy world. quite frankly I dont want to move to another legacy world either.



a snippit from his first post so you dont have to search for it

I for one am a 1.0 player stuck on a legacy server. My character has much lower job levels than most of my friends who are on a non-legacy server. This decision just boggles my mind.

Please could someone shed some light for me on why this decision has been made? It is extremely disappointing, because it means I STILL cannot play with my friends. It is unfair to ask a whole LS to world transfer to a legacy server just for me, so I’m left with only one option to go to them. At the moment I’m totally stuck on my own.

I still believe the whole thing is flawed, not being able to move from legacy worlds to non legacy worlds based on nothing initially but the fact that your char was 1.0 and they feared economy issues. their criterea should be based on how much you had done before 1.0 shut down(i.e. did you have more than one class/job leveled to max? how much gil did you have?) seeing as the majority of 1.0 players didnt even have 1 class even close to max and had very little gil, their whole legacy world segragation is flawed

It's just sad when people lie to pretend they're the victim, rather than accept that their choices or lack of choices put them where they are today. And when they stack outrage on top of it and blame others... *sigh*...

lets roill with this silly argument, first your claim that we are pretending we are the victim, load of garbage, Legacy players who could barely play are being punished because of a flawed ideal that all Legacy players would have maxed out classes/jobs and gill. this might be sound if it were true but it isn't. you have 10% give or take of Legacy players who qualify for this. so why do the rest of us have to be put with them?

second if anybody argued being dropped on a random world before the offer for world transfer was made they didnt know about the world merge which is fair since a lot of players never bothered to even look at Lodestone.

third there were players who did end up on random worlds after that offer closed regardless if you believe it or not. 6 of my friends picked Ragnorok and ended up on random Japanese Legacy worlds after. coming in to this thread thinking your knowledge is fact just because you spout off several things you know doesnt make it so.

FACT: after the world transfer offer for Legacy players commensed many did end up on random worlds they did not choose


lets also go into this farther. 2.0 players who made chars on Legacy worlds cannot move those either if what they announced was right. meaning players who chose Legacy worlds because they couldnt play anywhere else and put a lot of work into those chars are stuck and are infact victims

see this snippit from the translated post on page 9

Furthermore, it will be possible to move from a new World to a new World, a Legacy World to a Legacy World, and a new World to a Legacy World. In the future, we will look at economic conditions on new Worlds and plan on making it possible to transfer from Legacy Worlds to new Worlds; however, this option will not be available at the start of the World Transfer Service. We appreciate your understanding.

It was a character creation issue. Not to mention that I am an EU player with EU and NA friends, but my character was put on a JAP server. Also, I only jumped back on the bandwagon at early access. Some of my friends had already made and leveled characters in Beta4, joined linkshells and created a community.

This isn't me being angry or flaming for the sake of causing arguments, but this is a Multiplayer game. If I can't play my toon with my frinds, then it's not a social experience. I have been waiting patiently untill now, holding out hope, but wont pay a subscription fee to waste my time. The free-to-play period was generously extended untill issues surrounding the launch and players being able to play on desired servers were resolved. For me, they will not be resolved untill I can move to a non-legacy server.

EDIT: Ok I have read the above post and accept that my character wasn't "dumped" on a JAP server. Still doesnt change the fact that I have come back to the game as an EU player, to find my character on a JAP Legacy server, with no facility whatsoever to move to where my friends are. It was in part character creation and server population issues that prevented them from coming to me in the first place. Those launch problems affected 1.0 players too. As I have previously said, I can't now ask a whole bunch of NA/EU players to transfer to a JAP Legacy server just for lil' old me.
