Servers are full. Grats JP/GMT players. NA = Screwed.

Sorry but they have been running an MMO for over 10 years, there is no excuse for the way this is being done, it's just the standard poor customer service that we always get and apologizing for a company that you are paying for a service doesn't help. People are upset they can't do it now for two reasons: there has been almost no communication from SE regarding all of the servers being full and; people naturally want assurances that the characters they have been working on for over a year will transfer over to the same server as their friends. These are basic principals that should be lit up in neon lights in the developers heads, yet here we are with another convoluted and poorly executed process that fosters resentment towards the development team.

Yes I realize that in the end I'll probably get on the world that I want but that doesn't compensate for the initial frustration and disappointment and certainly doesn't inspire any sort of confidence that this game will be "fixed" when they finally do start to roll out 2.0.

so you are saying they are not allowed to limit how many players on a server so that they all get spread out evenly?

if you have friends in game they are usualy already on your server
if you have friends on other servers, you made them after the fact anyway and most games would require you to pay to transfer to them

add in the fact that most people are whining that they didnt get there on day 1 of 19, thats right, 19 days to transfer, and people are throwing fits that they didnt get in on day 1

the frustration people are feeling at this point is their own fault, the devs exaplined whats going on, that they will be manualy updating the server status throughout the day several times, and yet people still dont understand that and are throwing fits

when it gets closer to the end time of the server transfers, THAT IS WHEN YOU SHOULD WORRY, not the day they opened

Again not everyone has time to simply sit around camping a webpage and again regardless of how many times you try to say otherwise this process is poorly thought out and unnecessarily frustrating. That's not good for business any way you cut it, and SE is a business that already has lost customer confidence. If they can't handle a task that is relatively small compared to v2.0 it really makes you wonder if they've learned anything over the past year or are just forcing another beta down our throats.

you DO NOT have to camp the website

people are only doing it right now cuz they feel they have to to get where they want to go, give it some time and youll be able to just check it, see your sever open, and go to it.

as i said before, this is now day 2, so many people still want to transfer around that its overloading the requests and making it how it is now where everything shows full til they update it, give it time, and thatl taper off as people get their requests in.


every person who gets a transfer in is 1 less thatl be doing it over the next few days, and that number will eventualy zero out

It's so cute cause you all would have had your choices if you hadn't flamed the original merge plans. See sometimes were not all right ;P

i still say this method is vastly superior to the original plan. this way you have a small group of people trying to move away from their servers to another for whatever reason getting stuck. the other way you would have had multiple servers getting split right down the middle and not being able to move together.

i'll take the method we have now any day and twice on sundays over the original method.

[Lauro]

NA players are gonna be pissed when they wake up in the morning.

XD

Edit: to be clear, I am on the default server I was assigned to, I just feel bad for people who aren't and couldn't wake up in the AM to select the server of their choice before JP and GMT players filled them.

=(

Lets hope they open them back up to more players so people can move.


Double Edit: Seems spots are opening slowly.

Refresh the page often and keep trying!

Wow im making this because wow..
"Double Edit: Seems spots are opening slowly.

You my friend have earned a one way ticket to Ragnarok, congratulations.

Who agrees all complainers should be forced onto Ragnarok, they seemed to like the idea of getting a random server before, cept this will not be random, all complainers must go to Ragnarok.

[Omidar]

OK. Let me get this straight. ALL servers are full & they don't even accept applications for transfer. Server capacity = exact amount of players? It would seem to me that Squeenix needs to hire somebody that can do math.

Yes, lets put all the complainers on Ragnarok. That way you guys can choose any server you like. Oh, wait... you can't transfer either!

But hey, we shouldn't complain about it. We should let Square-Enix spoon-feed us a broken pile of shit, and then be happy with it. Lets even pay to play a game that is nothing more than a horrible mistake so far. But we should definitely make fun of anyone who raises an opinion that might offer even just a slight hint of possibly constructive criticism.

You sir, and every other fanboy on these boards like you are nothing more than a parasite. A cancer that is holding back the truth, which is that this game is fundamentally flawed (broken?) on nearly every level.

Imo, they should take all of your kind to Ragnarok, leave that server with the current state of the game, and never give it any updates. That way we can watch you all praise a shitty game. I would enjoy that.

wrong

whats happening is the system is ONLY updating who is tranfering onto servers but not off of servers
someone is going in and manualy updating the system to reflect whos left the servers

and they are updating it several times a day(its the weekend now so it may not be updating cuz of that)
