Give OCE players a free transfer off their dead datacenter.

I guess it's what you're used to. As someone who only really started when the OCE servers were released, I've been loving it. Now granted I brought 11 of my friends as new players with me so obviously that helps massively. But the experience in general has been great. Sure when I've done some of dungeons/trials solo I've had to wait a bit for it to pop, but it's generally on average been around 10 minute wait as DPS. Only time I've ever had to wait nearly 30 minutes was once and it was way outside peak hours.

I do wonder how many more on OCE are like us, new players who aren't as visible yet to the max level transfers and thus exacerbating the perceived problem of not enough people. Given how much content there is in this game, the majority of us in our 'new' FC are still just finishing Heavensward.

I remember many years ago (like during Wrath) on WoW on a very low pop server/battlegroup waiting nearly 4 hours for a DPS queue. the 10-30 minutes I have on OCE just doesn't feel like a big deal to me.

I think people underestimate how many people there are in older content. Im still in ARR doing my relic because I have more fun that way. Many FC mates are entering HW

I think what Square Enix should be doing is giving people big incentive to unlock off the MSQ path content to help populate roulettes.

Trail roulettes need help too. I remember on my old character having to wait nearly two hours for titania, and that was on a NA server. people act like some of that story stuff is quick queues in the other regions when they are often not.

Honestly, it's not great to let a few dissatisfied people and (worse) a single schadenfrude happy non-regional "cheer" on the wrong opinion. I feel bad for the people who regret their move and hope they know they can always come back when the frontier feel is a little lower. But that's still easily a year off.

It's a new data centre with a bulk of players starting from level 1, and as far as I see it's doing quite well. SE botched up a bit which has hampered it, but it will recover, as all the SE botchups have recovered.

DC is far and away a long way from being on it's last legs.

Yeah, I'm only in Stormblood. Most of my new friends are in HW. The queues are fine away from EW. Even Eureka is now starting to become chatty at times. I love it.
