EU players new server

[Coris]

Well, first of all I'm German but I am not happy about that SINGLE EU Server!
I also don't want this one to turn out as one of those servers where you read those "JP only" etc. shouts...

As I said on the German Forums, I don't want to live with that solution of 'server merge'. What if you and your friends choose a server, which happens to be full later on and just a few weeks later another friend wants to start playing FFXIV with you?! Is he screwed then?
I really hope they won't do it that way. Still want the solution of picking two low populated servers merged into one...

We might join another server instead of #10, but actually I don't want to think of it yet.

One of the charms of XI and XIV is no matter what time zone you play in, there will be people online to interact with thus having a designated EU,asian, us etc server population would be a terrible thing for me since my playtime can wary alot between weeks.
Which is one of the reasons I dislike this server merge system as it will segrate the population alot and there will be very dead servers outisde of peak times.

You are somewhat missing the point, its about finding people in your time zone to play with, nobody wants to stay up til 4am to do Moogle and Ifrit.

....... what are you talking about? On my server alone there are 3 large EU shells. There are EU shells on other servers too. Its the variety of people and where they are from that makes this game fun and interesting in the community aspect.

There is in your server but there isn't in others, common sense...

Obviously but that doesnt change my point.

And what about Finnish speakers!!!! You damn Swedish ppl always leave us out :P

Actually I'm trying to find all the Finnish players in XIV to gather around in one server. There's about 6 active players in Kashuan and the rest... I have no idea where are they.

Edit: Well not just me but my LS overall are looking from all different places to find enough active finns to do stuff.

In certain servers you can't find people in your timezone at all, having to join NA Linkshells for example... Which is what Jinko said, what's the fun in all the variety if for your timezone there isn't people at all and you are nearly forced to play at horrendous times?

I'm EU but I definitely won't go to Server 10 but is easy to understand the problem of certain people like Jinko.

Absolutely. But making ONE EU server (or designating it as such) is overkill and takes away from the community of the game.

Yah but doubt ALL EU will go to that server, there is many EUs that will go to others for variety due to prefering that and others that prefer much more europeans to play with and give priority to that over everything else will go to server 10, is just a matter of preference and opinion about this server I think.
