Data Centers/World Locations Info from the LIVE Letter

I think people are missing the point here ._.

No one has to play in their region if they want an international experience.
I don't see how people feel their community will die because you can now play regional or international....

Server Merge Rage Part 2 (well, its similar XD)

God, such an asshole, and for what reason? Got what she wanted but isn't satisfied until she stomps on other people's frustration. I'll say it again, get the fuck off if you have nothing else to add.

Consider it a suggestion.

I know I'll quit when the game stops being fun for me.

Maybe it's the fear that the population wont be large enough or that people with friends from across the globe will be gone,etc.I dont blame them,PSO2 is doing regional servers and everyone was flipping out at first,but I honestly dont think it's anything we can do now.Just gotta accept it,and if it all crash and burns then well,that's it.

Well there goes all my friends over seas. While I like the idea of less lag, I will hate it at the same time.

[Lirion]

I think it's pretty selfish that people would rather have one server for all and no other choice whatsoever. If I want the option to reduce my lag in-game by going to the server closer to where I live then I should have that option, I payed for the game, I pay the monthly fee and I should get the best possible gaming experience there is. It's not like I wont meet nice people there just because that server have less Japanese/NA people. Players shouldn't have to suffer lag because other people want to meet everyone on the planet.

I will pick the server my LS pick which will probably be a NA server. I'm from EU btw. If everyone in my LS decide to go to separate servers then that's not S-E fault, it's their decision. I'll meet new players on whatever server I end up on but hopefully the people I play with today decides to go to the same server.

well, at least i hope the durandal server is tied with north american region, if not this sucks

By the way im not very familiar with the computer stuff, but isnt there a chance that we can have like the wifi stuff that when you get several signals it takes the best in range for you, if you're in certain server and you are in North America region, your account can take the closest host point center, the one with better range for you? so you dont need to change servers according to your zone

[Croy]

A simple solution is to name all the current servers as "International" don't even mention the data center its attached to and open up new regional servers for people migrate to if they want to. The result would be no worse then when Ragnarok launched. Some of the people in this thread seem to think that suddenly the world is going to be split in twaine and there isn't anything they can do about it... there is, find friends who find community more important then marginally less lag (most of us), and let the rest of the community who actually has been asking for better servers a chance to move on to different pastures.
