[Feedback] Data Center Travel Changes

[riqueshion]

Here we go again.

I've sent many tickets at this point, related to this topic. It's so unfortunate that we are dragging this issue from an expansion to another.
As raider from Primal, it's awful to not enjoy the endgame content as they should because of this matter. Primal used to have MANY parties to prog fights and on. Because of the DC travel, people keep moving to Aether to raid and honestly I don't blame them. Either you try to move to Aether, or you will take forver to fill your party on PF. YES, yes, I know that we can always transfer if we are not happy with our DC. But what about my retainers? My FC? Friends? My mansion, my house? Do we really need to make a choice here? How many savage tiers do we need to have to find a solution?

Made a forum account just to reply to this thread. These changes have been nightmarish for people across DCs--I know people who have encountered issues traveling to every data center.

If these changes aren't reversed, I will be permanently unsubbing. This is unacceptable. It didn't work for the housing system, and it sure as hell isn't working for DC travel. They may as well just shut down DC travel completely at this point. Like, I'd rather wait in a 500+ queue than aggressively and desperately clicking through the world travel menu Praying that maybe it'll let me in.

This is the funny part to me. Seeing so many people talking as if they're going to quit content or abandon 4-10 years of playing the game before using Party Finder on their home data center is just a little /too/ wild for me to believe. I don't take half of these comments seriously because they sound exagerrated as hell and spoiled/selfish. Yoshi P smacking people in the back of the head and saying "raid where you are" is the funniest interaction I've seen in a second and shows the maturity difference between JP and NA/EU since they're adjusting better.

I would certainly love to use PF on my home DC! Too bad the parties never fill. Friends and I sat for two hours last week waiting for an EX2 farm party to fill, and it literally never did. Sat at 5/8, for two hours. So please, tell me, how am I supposed to use PF on my home DC when PFs never fill?

You were running extreme on a savage content release window where most of the people who qualify for an extreme farm would be running savage.

1 : This is a sunday afternoon/evening
2 : the numbers of PF's for content is laughable compared to other DC's, this aint the "flex" you think it is.

1) He said the party didn't fill. And there's 4 parties for said content without it even being prime hours. 2 of which are farm parties 1-2 people away from filling. Getting into the content exists. He just chose to aim for the content at the worst possible time. He had Aether level expectations while being on Dynamis which is ignorant. Every data center/region has different expectations you should have. NA in general has longer raiding hours than JP. I wouldn't go over to JP and complain about their raiding scene saying it doesn't exist and I can't get into content just because I wanted to keep NA expectations. You adjust your content planning and expectations based on where you are.

2) Calling it a flex when I flat out said earlier in the thread that it's better than it was previously and is good progress relative to how long the data center had content running at all tells me the level of salt you have over the fact you can't argue with any of the points I've made and have to resort to putting words in my mouth and changing the argument. Always some Miqo being emotional.

Besides you being completely rude and proving that you are NOT raiding this savage tier, just reflect how gate keeper some players are related to issues with DC travel. You literally took a screenshot on the general tab, where ALL endgame fights are. This shows nothing. As a raider, I've been struggling to fill parties in my DC since last tier. This is also for ultimate fights. You SIMPLY cannot fill. I would love to raid in my server again, like I used to since ShB. But you either travel to raid, or wait forever in your dc to fill a single prog party.

The guy I replied to said EX2, not Savage. What was shown is EX2. I went to Primal at 9PM EST today and saw 113 party finders for High-end Duty and you want to cry fake tears about not being able to fill a party in Savage . I'm not entertaining this. Go be a fussy little bunbun with someone else.
