Upgrade the data center travel so we can go to other regions.

- Sophia and Ravana have perma-login queues, even at 2am. Only Zurvan is actually perma low pop.
- A couple days back when I had a look there were 21 Savage groups in PF, is this ALWAYS the case? No, but you'll find 5-10 of the latest tier Savage groups basically 24/7 and 20ish each night for 2-3 nights each reset.
- DF & roulettes pop within 5-10 mins for pretty much all content at peak hour, you'll only have problems trying to do some random Stormblood Raid at like 5am and maybe some of the HW/SB alliance raids.
- Bozja & Coils raids don't exist on any server, Materia or not
- Market boards are not super packed but are pretty fluid and have everything you need.
- Hunts are 200+ people on Tuesday/Weds and 40+ the rest of the week and S-ranks are spawned non-stop all day
- Eureka and Bozja have plenty of groups except in the wee hours of the morning.
- PVP is a bit so-so: Crystalline Conflict pops in under 5 mins at peak and under 10 offpeak. Frontline is a bit sketchy, OCE players don't seem to do it much.

Does the above apply constantly all day 365 days a year? No, but it's pretty consistently true. Are you actually doing general content or are you queuing for some super obscure content at maximum-offpeak?

1. The login queues are fake. The worlds are never full. They just slow down the logins to avoid errors when too much people login at once.
2. PF peak times fall down very quick, because Aussies don't stay up late like SEA players. You're telling me that 20-30 PF (not just including savage) at peak time is good? That is so delusional.
3. Duty finder peak hour? You mean a good measly 8 hour peak times for using duty finder, and any late night monkey gets to suffer waiting in queue for a lot longer after that? And to you, that means the duty finder in OCE is in a good state? I can go on NA, where it will be morning for them, night time for me, and I can get into a duty more faster than OCE.
4. Bozja and Eureka community have the biggest community to set more events where people all go in the instance at the same time to do content compared to OCE. You don't know that, because you don't bother trying to look for a dedicated discord for it. Stop misinforming people.
5. Don't care about the marketboard issue. That's not issue. I don't know why you brought that up.
6. Yes. Hunts are actually fine. But watch what happens when we're in a content lull. Just watch...
7. So you completely contradicted yourself when you said Bozja doesn't exist on any server.
8. Did you not read? Do you not know how to read? I said casual CC has a little measly 9 hour peak time, so trying to queue for it outside that peak time is either gonna take almost forever or not even pop even pop at all. Where as you can queue any time on other data centers, and it will pop with no problem.

I don't understand why you try so hard to play devil's advocate just to have a go at someone who's hurting your feelings that your data center is absolutely awful and is going to crumble if the issue keeps lingering for much longer. All you've shown us was how ignorant and complacent you are.

1. "The queues are fake" ... and there we go
2. I said 21 SAVAGE groups, which people always whine about, not including others
5. market boards are a good indication of any MMO server activity.
7. BOZJA .. RAIDS, Learn2read
8. I was "partly" agreeing with you re PVP but you had to rage-flail instead. In any case I was getting CC to pop in 5ish mins at 2am last night.

+raging + insults

You seem very angry and locked into to your perceptions, no-one here is going to convince you otherwise. Maybe moving to NA would help you relax? Maybe you should be really specific with the exact item (and time) you were queuing for when you had your moment that triggered your post.

You have very embarrassing comprehension skills and you argue like a child. I don't know why I should even bother continuing the conversation with you when you can't even make a decent rebuttal. So let me end this exchange between us with this.

Angry isn't even close to what I'm feeling for you. You just made me feel very uncomfortable the way you blindly defend SE while turning a blind eye to the issues that's going on in your own data center. This is exactly why people have complained about FFXIV players having toxic positivity when the players who do complain just want the developers to make the right decisions so that their experience is better in the game. Materia data center is absolutely miserable state right now for players that do try to engage in a lot of content, but I'm holding onto it because I'm hoping something gets done by very early 2023.

Making Materia data center that is an extremely low populated server, then choosing to isolate it from other data center is 100% a very stupid decision. I am completely aware that that they will have cross region data center travel, but if they were gonna hold off from that for a long time, they should of not released Materia data center unless they were going to have cross region data center travel implemented right after. Defending SE about this is just dumb. I don't know how any person with at least one brain cell could think that this business decision was in any way smart. A data center with a small playerbase is going to be even more small when they get fed up with not being able to do the content that they want. Can we please have a bit more common sense here.

To be fair, SE probably just didn't know what would happen. But now that we can see what is happening it looks like cross-DC travel would help.

I had a mist 35 large and i deco it really professional. I was one of the top spawner for s rank. Honeymoon period were fun. But after some months I realise off peak is difficult to get thing done. Pf weren’t as many. I made the decision to demo my mist 35 and left for balmung.

Now I seen so many peoples & getting thing popped were better. 110 pf on their peak times since I play morning on rest day.

I wouldn’t have left if SE allow dc travel for OCE.

My guess is that they PLANNED DC travel but then stuff happened...
