Ragnarok: Only EU?

[Raistlin]

Why all the server at EU timezone has te be low populated, spreading shortest player community on this game in 10 servers?

There no exist a perfect solution for every one.

The point of the Final Fantasy series is to interact with people all over the world.

The point of the entire series? Uh, no. There are like 30 games in the FF series, and only five of them even have multiplayer, and only two of those are online. So interacting with people from all over the world can't possibly be the point of the entire series.

Anyway, I think a special regional server is a good idea. However, if it were up to me, I would segregate the severs based on language rather than location. That way instead of having just a European server, we would have a French server for French players, a German server for German players, and English speaking Europeans could just go on the same servers as everyone else.

Also, Japanese players could have their own servers as well.

I was in agreement until you said the bolded part, I don't want to play in the same timezone as US/AU players as their events are normally during the middle of my night.

Seperate UK server I would be ok with. (It would have all of 300 people on it though lol)

I think there are not enough french or german people to fill a server by themself.

but a ton of them wont transfer cuz thatd mean severing ties with tons of people they already know
thats gonna be the biggest problem with making it a new server as they have, alot of people will just stay put where they are or transfer to already established servers rather then start anew

True, but then you could just join UK linkshells, couldn't you?

Looking at the limited people who visit xivpads as a estimate, ragnarok is looking as populated as some of the other servers.

My poll although extremely limited in number estimates 50% of EU players will move to Ragnarok.

Link to poll - seeing as this thread is getting more attention lol.

Yea but from my experience playing on Lindblum EU/UK linkshells let US members in and before long your linkshell is no longer an EU/UK linkshell.

At least on Ragnarok everyone is playing in the same time zone and a lot of EU players speak enough English for everyone to communicate.

Your poll means little to nothing (no insult intended). There is another poll out with 50+% not going and 38% going.

Its not a litmus test at all.

Yea I already said that its extremely limited, you can't seem to help yourself eh

Edit- Ok so lets round that up to 40% going that's still a decent number.

You can't seem to stop being sensitive. Its a bit strange for be because everything I say to you you somehow think its loaded or I'm being aggressive. It's not my nature. Chill, doooooooood.

And yes I did see that - I was simply accenting the "limited" comment. Again though, this means nothing to me. The stranglers should have the chance to start anew. Tag remains though thats ridiculous.
