Unlock Aether NOW

[Avatre]

NOPE! I'm happy with my locked Aether. Means people can't make more alts to troll on the forums when their troll accounts get banned/suspended.

Kind of surprised they haven't come back here and said to buy them off Ebay so that they could get shipped a girl wearing a bunny suit holding a serving tray...

No room for new bot accounts my dear Titanmen?

[Holystyle]

I am with OP fix your servers when i am in mood to play i want to able to log in and play.
Few times i managed to have full overwatch ranked match while sitting in queue like ??

Few times i want to play with friend was in queue and by time it passed friend was not in mood .

And as far i know this is low time in FFXIV so if there is big patch/expansion and there will be queue seems good way to lose players literally not fun not being able to play when you are in mood to.

Well, you are with a troll then. I know you might say it makes no difference cause their opinion is still valid.

To that i say, SE can't just bulk up their stuff for just the case something like this surge happens. It's like asking the city to double the highway in size cause you had a 30min traffic jam this morning. Even if you were in a great mood to go to work, sometimes it's not really necessary to bulk up servers to amounts that would be not profitable in the long run.

But hey, welcome to titanmens simp army. No wonder he has always all gatherers and crafters up, since you fellas make yourself into his tools.

You're que times aren't even affected by this lock out though. Heck you're not even part of the affected data center. Everyone knows there will be que times come November. There will also most likely be a few instanced zones. I don't think many could have predicted the game becoming so popular let alone Blizzard shooting themselves in the foot.

To be fair, in EU we're facing bad queues overall but it has nothing to do with this subject. Nor would their approach to aquire said hardware work on...amazon lol

Social distance that DC!

Relax OP am sure you'll get to make erp alts again so soon!

It's a joke, just to make sure you get it.

Cheers ^^

As if Aether is the center of the world and life doesn't exist outside of it. There are still 7 other Data Centers across all regions for them to create alts on.

Order servers off Amazon. Holy crap, that's gotta be one of the best responses (on the Bizarro scale) to a server congestion thread I have ever seen, anywhere, on anyone's forums, in the last decade.

Yeah, just Amazon the parts.

Server infrastructure for MMOs includes all of the following, each of which must be purchased and maintained separately:

- Authentication servers
- Database servers
- Map servers
- Instance servers

...and probably more that I'm not privy to. A global MMO like FFXIV will require multiples of each of the above in order to "expand a datacenter," and that's just the initial purchase price. They'd then need to calculate maintenance, operating costs and upkeep for the foreseeable future. Then, all of that needs to be extrapolated into something the finance team can approve (or disapprove, and require a revision).

Delivery would be a bit more than your local UPS driver dropping off a large box at SE headquarters. It'd be several trucks, or a semi, and there will be forklifts involved to offload the new hardware.

Amazon it. LMFAO. SE, make sure you have Prime for quick delivery.

Hahahaha.
