Physical/regional servers FINALLY confirmed ??! (Y)

[Yumi_Hibiki]

infact we all know that FFXIV was a failure, and lag is one of the pieces of the mosaic. While in other games, lags is just an old thing that should not happen in 2012 with current tecnology ^^"

yeah if only they were working on some kind of new client, engine and server structure with that 2012 technology as we speak... ^~^

Talking with you is like speaking with a wall i see :P

I don't see where is your problem. Local servers are still not confirmed, and even if they'll be, international servers will coesist, so you will stay there with all your international friends and blablaablaa...

While me, and who wants to play at high level, with fastess possible latency, will move on local server...

So where is the problem?

and i am really glad they are not confirmed
ok this will be my last response here since you obviously just shrug and discard every point of concern i make anyway and wasting my breath is not one of my favorite past times
so ill make this as clear as possible:

The problems:
)People wandering off to regional servers with the promise of "you suddenly play like a pro without that fabled LAG" will cripple existing international servers

)New players are going to prioritize regional servers since they are used to them from other games, crippling the flow of new players on the existing international servers

)you have friends, your friends have more friends, they are from all over the world most of the time,
try to keep every single one on your server against that sirens call.
its impossible
see the outcry from the server merge at first,
it may have been forced for everyone but everyone could also choose freely
so in a perfect world all just go to the same new server right?
that's just not how it works in reality thou, there are way too many factors for that.

regional servers will ruin one of the best factors the game has, a colorful international community, making the servers busy 24/7

for me the cons BY FAR outnumber that bit of ping people hope to gain (if that's even necessary at 2.0)

So basically you want to deny *everyone else* low latency gameplay because you want to force people to stay on a server that's not ideal for them. Now that is at least every bit as egotistical as the people who want low lag are.

sometimes it is necessary to force people into what they don't want, than letting them ruin the experience for everyone by giving them what they do want. its a mind set Yoshi is truly lacking for, and Tanaka had to much of.
